Hell Difficulty =(

I have a slight problem.

Me and my bro are playing LoD over LAN and just have reached Hell difficulty but we just cant beat it. Act 1 monsters hit like trucks and we do too little damage. I stopped playing LoD almost 3 years ago so I lost a bit of touch for it.

I was wondering, is there any special "preparations" needed to beat hell? Did I miss something in NM?

I am playing full blown Hammerdin and my bro is Trap Assasin.

and also I tried /players x command but it seems that it dosent have much effect. XP rate is still the same and monster HP is the same.

Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
 
The Players X command is only for Single Player and Open, and it increases the difficulty by making it as if there are more people playing.

With hell mode you need to need more resists as you are at -100 to all resists off the bat.

-What levels are you at and what kind of gear are you both using ... this makes a difference too.
 
Well I just tried to set players to 1 to ease it up a bit but it dosent have any effect. Monsters need some heavy beating before they die... like they have million HP...

Like i said before, if you are playing on closed battle.net (UsWest, East, Europe) the Players X command does nothing.



 
we are playing in LAN as stated in original post. I presume players x command should work there. But well that is not of real importance...

Im just wondering what is the best way to beat Hell difficulty?

Run NM 100 times to reach really high levels or what?

Also our gear is a problem because obviously we cant trade so we must use what we find, etc.
 
Clvl 75 shoud reach even untwinked (HC). Max your resists, at least fire and light. Buy act 2 mercs (one holy freeze) and if you play a runeword mod equippe one of them with an insight.

The strategy should be like place traps and spam hammers and run away while the monsters follow you.

Both chars are capable of beating hell if built properly. Go to char subforums and read some guides.
 
u should be at least lvl 70 when u go into hell. especially since you are going untwinked (right?). and yeah, since u r hammerdin, stand a little apart from the monsters and get a nice ring of hammers going, then lure monsters into it. getting yourself surrounded then spamming hammers method is suicide in hell, unless u have uber gear
 
What are your stats and skills distribution. My guess is that your skills are all over the place, and therefore can't kill in hell.
 
thanks for the tips.

my Pala is lvl 67 and Assasinn is lvl65. We will try to run NM Meph/Baal for better gear and XP to reach atleast lvl70 and then try hell again.
