Ultimo DClone Killer Setup??

First question.. whats the best pally build to take DClone down? I was thinking of a smiter. Anyway if its a smiter this will be my planned gear.

Helm: Guilliuam Face (Um/Diamond Jewel)
Armour: Black Hades (Never thought this thing was useful) :howdy: 60%ED to Demon (3x Diamond Jewel 120%ED)
Weapon: The Redeemer 250%ED to Demon (Pul'd +75%ED)/'Black' Flail for the CB??
Shield: HoZ (Um/Diamond Jewel 40%)
Belt: Verdungo
Glove: Laying of Hands 350%ED to Demon
Boot: Gorerider
Ammy: Seraphs Hymn 50%ED to Demon
Rings: Natures Peace and Raven Frost/BK/SoJ

Total Dmg to Demon: 905%ED - 985%ED
50% - 90%CB

Would this work? Any other options available are welcomed as I dunno what other items also add dmg to Demon. :thumbsup:

Things that work well vs. D-Clone:

-Crushing Blow
-Deadly Strike
-Open Wounds
-Poison
-High AR
-Fast Attack
-% Damage to Demons
-% AR to demons
-added damage to demons
-added AR to demons
-Fire Resist
-FHR
-A well-equipped merc

I have no problems beating up the D-Clone. I use a lvl 91 Frost Zealot and lots of crushing blow.

"Prevent monster heal" helps a lot too.

Indeed, being it would work in the same way Poison or Open Wounds would. Well said!

Oh yeah...one more thing that helps:

-being over lvl 70
 
IMHO, crushing blow vindicators [smiters] are the best for dclone killing... i've heard they kill him in under 10 seconds while taking minimal damage.

guillaume
'black' flail/knout/scourge
coh
hoz
cb gloves (blood, rends, venomgrips) OR dracs
dungos
gores OR goblin toe
maras or seraphs
natures peace
raven

oh, and btw -- if you're rich enough, and still want to keep your damage to demons setup, aim for coh -- it gives 200% rather than hades' 120%.
 
Any reasonable Crushing Blow build will take out DClone with no problems. The following items are recommended:

Something with Prevent Monster Heal on it
Guillaume's Face
Dracul's Grasp gloves
+ max resists in hell. fire absorb will make it easier.

The aura I like best is Holy Freeze. You can get a merc for that or have a character with one point in that skill. With better gear you can ditch the holy freeze and just use a more damaging (fanaticism, etc). This is only useful for bragging purposes though as the encounter will already be trivial.

Smite is the fastest killer because it always hits. This means that you only have to hold the button down on him for 30 seconds instead of a minute or two.

I agree Olio. I use a lvl 91 Frost Zealot with the following:

-Guillame's Face (15 IAS)
-2/2 Seraph's Hymn
-CoH
-Up'd 190% HoZ (15 IAS)/Lidless
-BK Band
-RavenFrost
-Arachnid Mesh
-3/2 Heaven's Light (SHAEL+JAH)/CTA Flail(6/5/2)
-Dracul's Grasp
-Up'd 170% Gorerider
-10 x Offensive Aura GC's
-Annihilus

and for my merc:

-Guillame's Face (SHAEL)
-Up'd 180% Duriel's Shell (SHAEL)
-Reaper's Toll (AMN)

I believe that anything like this will pretty much be an easy victory. Though I am sure SMITE is much faster, I can honestly say that I have absolutely no problem mopping the floor with the D-Clone...he's about as hard as Jell-O!
 
Natures Peace would give Prevent Monster Heal. So the 2nd ring option could be Dwarf Star. HRmm sounds good enuff.
 
Ultimate weapon for dclone has to be Stormlash. with ber rune in it, it has 53 crushing blow i believe, AND it has STATIC.this works very well on smite, but can also work well on zealot.
