So, to start, this build was only possible with the (long lived) generosity of one NagisaFurukawa. I don't remember if he/she/they is even on this forum, but they were very kind to me on the older forum. Several of the Mat/Pat threads I posted there (now reposted here) included a thanks to NF.
This is another build that I started in/around 2010, and I don't remember why I started it. There's some chance that I started it because NF gave me the Faith explicitly so I could. I don't know.
As I said, I'm not sure why I started this build, but most of the choices make sense to me. Overall, this character was a hunter first and a summoner second; the act 2 moron was chosen by default, not as a design choice.
I picked this build up in early hell act 2, as has been a theme with these 'found' builds. I played through acts 2-4 on random players counts. Parts were a on p1 and others on p7. The character is quite safe on lower player counts and still reasonably safe on higher counts. Max Dex + Fort brings a lot of defense and (almost) maxed Cyclone Armor works wonders. I never quite had max resists, but I did work in at least some absorb at times. In any case, elemental ranged damage wasn't much of an issue, due to some resists and absorb coupled with CA. I had what I consider to be a lot of deaths, overall, but I usually play less risky characters (i.e. max vit). I've felt a bit slow and clunky playing D2 the past few weeks. Maybe not playing for 10 years has dulled my responses.
The Chaos Sanctuary wasn't particularly difficult. I think I had a couple of deaths in the CS, but none to the boss. I think I killed D on /p3.
Act 5 was fine. I sailed through most of it on /p5, with no major issues. I did die a couple of times, though (Hello, PI Frenzytaurs!). It's pretty easy to recover since I can just resummon things, res my merc, approach slowly, then dart in and get my stuff. Ancients killed me on my first attempt, but it was a bit weird. I was using Grizzly instead of dire wolves, of course, and after the first ancient dropped, one of them 1/2 shotted me. The second attempt was totally smooth.
The WSK was fine (/p1). No deaths, I think. The Baal kill was on /p3.
I want to say something about the playstyle, but it's a pretty standard hunter. I don't think that I tried anything too uncommon. On items, though, I did go through a few changes. When I first loaded him up, he was sporting a Jalal's Mane, hit power gloves, and Razortail (probably other stuff, too). Jalal's Mane is a great item for most druids, but it started to feel like a hindrance with this one. The +Druid Skills don't help my shouts and there aren't many combat stats. I thought about replacing the Ort with an Um, but never did. Also, the +126 life on the Shako was tempting on this low vit character. The Pierce on the Razortail probably helped my DPS a bit, but that's all it did, and so I replaced with Thundergod's for the absorb (and Str due to my stat woes). The hitpower gloves (knockback, ias, resists) worked well, but I started to notice (especially with the grizzly) that I was knocking mobs out my minions' range sometimes. It seemed like LoH would boost my damage enough to be worth the switch.
On charms: when I loaded up the character, I had two max damage grand charms (+18 and +20, iirc) in the inventory, but I removed those and put in charms to shore up life and resists. I also added a lot of elemental damage charms. I hadn't really planned that last part, but it kind of worked out as I was choosing charms to use. I used one trainer's skiller, but that one has +30 life, so it was an easy choice. I focused on life, resists, and elemental damage with the rest.
That screenie shows my AR at ~11k, but it was usually at 16k through most of the playthrough. I'm not 100% sure what I changed to change that. Maybe HoW isn't triggering there?
Yeah, that seem more like it.

Drops: Well, well, well. What have we here? That's probably the most notable drop in my D2 career, so if I quit tomorrow, starting up again was well worth it!
When I loaded up Dedekind, he had a Pul rune, presumably from NM hellfore. He found an Um at some point (I have a screenie). His hell hellforge was Lem. I just started posting here recently, and though I've kept screenshots of notable drops, most are not yet posted in the IFT. I'm not sure that I'll try to trade/gift them, so I'm not too worried about that just yet.
Other drops: lacerator, infernostride, eth 0soc feral axe*, naj's light plate, flamebellow (hell D), Tal's Lidless Eye (meh roll), IK Stone Crusher, Tal's H Crest, Diggler (hehe), Spirit Shroud (hell B). Overall, not a bad haul, even discounting the runes.
Plans for this character: I have some saved skill/stat points, so I could make some significant changes, or just respec. This build isn't especially good at any one thing, but it was fun. I kind of want to try regearing to focus on summoning first and pew pewing second, but I may not bother.
Future plans in general: Maybe I should make a Faith necro? Maybe I should make a build that relies on the Rogue merc using Faith?
That Cham rune, though, brings up some possibilities. I could make a Doom weapon. I have a 0 socket eth berserker axe from 1.07 that I could try to get 5 sockets in. I may have enough runes to ebug it as well. There are a number of builds in the mat/pat thread using Doom, and I seem to have the components for a good one. Can anyone recommend a good (read: FUN, not necessarily baller) build using Doom on the character and faith on the merc? I was thinking that just a fairly plain avenger would make good use of a Doom BA.
Any suggestions on another use of a Cham rune would be appreciated. My next highest rune right now is Lo, but I have many runes below Mal, so cubing up something between Mal and Lo is possible.
* not important to most, but I have an executress that could use an eth 2-hander....if I don't want to rack for a 1.07 one.
