ANCIENTS:
This was my second encounter with hell ancients, and this time it was rough:

1º fanatism enchanted
2º cursed extra fast (died)
3º Might enchanted
4º FE(died) killed talic & korlic first
5º FE
6º cursed extra strong
7º cursed
8º cursed
9º FE
10º cursed
11º cursed
12º 3x Inmune to lightning
13º FE extrafast
14º cursed extrafast (died)
15º 3x inmune to lightning
16º cursed extrastrong
17º fanatism enchanted

finally I've managed to kill the 18º combo of:
conviction enchanted +something else (talic)
mana burn extrafast + lighting inmune (madwac)
exta strong + stone skin (korlic)

I've played without merc since the ancient's way, because I was somewhat short of cash :D
Baal was kind enough to drop me a hwanin's crown, an eth rune, and a blue that I left on the ground :)
NM Hellforge was better than Hell one: Um rune vs. Hel rune. At least I've paid the crescent moon...


HOW TO IMPROVE THE BUILD:

less points in sacrifice, more into fanatism (for switch)
less into holy shield, some in salvation (for main)

Maybe Id go with switch as primary attack (nord's is awesome) and main as secondary (leech was almost inexistent: tough fights )


BEST FINDS:
Um rune (forge)
Lum rune
Ko rune
Cow king boots (cow king, normal)
Kelpie snare and several normal uniques

I think this is all. This char will be meph farmer for a while, when he gains a couple of lvls, or maybe I can do some cows with him, I haven't checked hell cows yet.
 
Congrats on the Pat!
 
Wow, nice! Congrats!

When reading your skill distribution, I first wondered, why you didn't skill salvation. Then I saw sacrifice in your list. Were you going for a good mix between lightning and physical dmg?

Nice one though... :thumbsup:

yes, but it isn't worth it. At least not with a low damage phase blade, maybe with another kind of weapon (and with a 5 frame zeal)
That's why I recomend more points in fanatism instead of sacrifice.
And some in salvation and less in holy shileld, I think holy shield is ok at lvl 7-10 w/+skills.
That way you improve your main source of damage, and with fanatism on, you improve the physical secondary source of damage (17% ed, IAS and some AR from fanatism against only 12% ED from sacrifice)
