Hi guys,
Have you ever cleared uber tristram with a Wind druid? If yes, how did you manage to do it?
After porting my untwinked 99'er Wind druid to D2R I thought I give it a shot. My Windy sits comfortably at level 94 and has all the high end gear, with the exception of +6 possible spaces for elemental skillers and a 2nd BK ring.
In about an hour I gathered the required key sets. Uber Izzy and Duriel were easy. Lillith was in hindsight also quite easy with only 1 mercernary death and being careful. Then uber tristram itself. First I tried uber mephisto. I switched my merc gear to blackthorn's, socketed reapers toll with Um and wore a Tgods myself. I got Meph twice till half his life bulb in 10 minutes. Not too bad... Then I decided to first take care of uber Baal and Diablo. After about 5-10 minutes they were taken care of and it was not that difficult tbh.
Then back to mr. Conviction himself. I tried 1,5 hours to dispatch him but I did not succeed. Got him to at most 4/5 of his health bulb. It costed me about 1,4 mio for resurrecting the merc and I died one time myself. Tried different attack styles (e.g. telestomp/ first letting decrep proc and then telestomp/ attacking with tornoda's from a distance. Hoewever, nothing worked. After 1,5 hours I was through my gold reserves and stamina...
Should I have used Kira's on merc for extra resists? His armor was Duriels shell. In short, have you guys beaten him with a wind druid and how? I really want to get a torch of them. Respeccing is not an option due have used the skill reset quests and having to save ancients for bonus XP later on.
Your advice is appreciated!
