can hammerdins solo ubers?

[tekneekzz]

i kno this is a stupid question but i hate makin extra characters to do something.. i have a decent hammerdin.. wonderin if this is possible for me to solo ubers with a hammerdin

[DoD_Vic]

Some believe a hammerdin can solo Ubers...personally I think they can, but your gonna need a really good merc and a lot of Full juvies to complete it. With those just try it. If you hardcore...Don't try it... and if you succeed solo let me know on how you did it and if my advice helped. Oh btw, what equipment does your hammerdin have?

Hammerdins cant solo uber trist....atleast i dont think
but when used in combination with say a smiter a hammerdin isnt a bad ally
have the hammerdin sit and spawn hammers then just lure the bosses towards the hammerdin..........he should be useful unless he trys to run up and kill the bosses himself lmao

[xenn2600]

No, hammerdins can't solo Trist. And there's no point in using a smiter to lure the bosses to the hammerdin if the smiter can just easily solo it himself... and quicker, too. However, if you're tag-teaming with a zealer or wolf druid or another fun build that can't exactly easily solo Trist, it's far more fun than and almost as effective as soloing with a smiter.

Yeah hammerdins cant solo i had a hammerdin doing 13k hammers tanked out and i couldnt even hit the ubers. So i made a smiter to do the job. but it dosent hurt to have a hammerdin by your side casting concentration while you use salvation

[spider_man_2]

Yea also some minions there are immune to magic, so unless you have an all might merc and prevent monster heal, you'd b screwed

[Infested-Legend]

Well I have a question about the smiter, I don't have the greatest gear out there, but is it possible for a smiter to solo trist with decent gear. I have ...ok... crushing blow which I heard was the main thing. This is mainly what I have on him to use...

Full Orphan Set [Helm,Gloves,Belt,Shield]
Spirit Crystal Sword
Angelic Rings/Ammy, Manald Ring, Eye Of Elitch
String Of Ears
Shaftstop/Viper Magi

If anyone knows some stuff that would be better for me, and not that expensive please tell me. I'm also thinking of getting a Guardian Angel and HOZ. I think I can afford the G Angel, but dont know how much HOZ [A low end HOZ] is worth so if anyone can tell me that also, i'd really appreciate it. thx

[Daking]

well, first off i dont think that gear is nearly close to even good enough to solo ubers. Also w/o *draculs gloves* (life tap %5) i dont think they can do it. i believe that on ladder a low-end HoZ is Ist or ist-um

[Bloodangel26]

yea daking is sort of right, only sort of because if you have exile you dont need dracs. i think smiters are screwed unless they either have dracs or exile. they just have to have the life tap since smite doesnt leech otherwise.

Based on your equipment, you only have +20% IAS for your
Base Weapon Speed [0] weapon putting your Smite at the
10/7 FPS breakpoint. Hope you have Fanatacism maxed to
reach the 7 FPS!

It depends how much you can afford. A *very* cheap option
is to put two SHAEL runes into a Phase Blade for a respectably
fast smite weapon that hits the 7/6 FPS breakpoint with a
fair Range of 2. IMHO one of the biggest bang-for-the-buck
weapon out there.

Before you go off and waste a bunch of SHAEL runes in
other weapons, keep in mind you could also just trade the
runes for a much better item.

BTW as other mentioned, you'll *need* Life Tap!

ok thx guys, I have "zakarums hand", dont know how much better that is than spirit sword for smiter but neways, looks like I got a while before I try trist, so I guess i'll continue mfing and hope for the best. BTW, if anyone can tell me what dracs are worth as well. I'd ask on the bnet channels but ppl arent as frendly on d2 as they used to be lol

[commandwolf]

no need hoping for lifetap to get in play, just get a weapon with life tap charges instead and cast on whatever u want in uber trist

[A|fzZz]

Seriously...No hdins can ever solo trist.
The conviction aura=pwnt with mages around
And the hammer will do shit dmg...no ow no ds no cb...Anything else?

[Phallock]

Do a quick search and you will see another post about "hammerdin did ubers". What the build was, was a hammerdin with one point into smite and smite was used to finish off the critters the hammers didn't.

[Phallock]

Sorry I didn't give proper credit for that post. I just remembered it; didn't look it up.

[tigeroip]

well my hammerdin on non ladder has all the possible stuf fu can get except the 40 + life pcombat gcs but the rest is perfect and i can solo all the mini ubers and the ubers but i cant do meph
