Made a Hammerdin for Ladder Season 7. Been using him as a Smiter too. After I maxed out Hammers, its synergies and Concentration, I put one point in Smite, Fanaticism and Salvation. The rest of my points are in Holy Shield. Even with so little invested in a Smiter build, he's able to take down ubers and dclones. With just budget Smite gear he was able to do these just fine. Otherwise, my Hammerdin has around 425% magic find and is pretty effective.
I always love Phil's reaction to finding a Lem lol. I am the same even though it's not a HR but to me, it's always useful. Also when you found that spider from Andy, talking about finding items from monsters that usually never drop it. When she was terrorized a while ago I found my first perfect Maras off her. lol. (humble brag)
@Sweet Phil Does your MF Run Counter still work? Mine doesn't seem to Auto update a run like it used to when I save and exit? Just wondering if it's my end or if others are having this issue
I found a -71 lightning and -87 fire sunder off the same fallen pack in the room right before Andy in a terror players 7. Also got a ral rune and an amulet with +1 sorc and 9fcr. Prob best run I’ve ever had. Not that a ral is that great, just adding it to the run cause it dropped. Lol On my recently stayed offline character too!
I finally found a griffon in singleplayer!! Im playing on ps5. Still missing a stone of jordan very much. I already found one but i messed arround with the clock and somehow lost that soj. Havent been able to get my hands on another yet :(
How'd you manage to get 7 skillers on SP? Not sure if you are playing it with hero editor or legit, but I'd imagine legit would take quite a while to obtain 7 skillers.
I've been playing single player since the game launched. And I'm full time d2r UA-camr and steamer. You are correct it took a lot of time. There's some builds I haven't even gotten a full inventory of skilled yet even posing full time for like 3 years.
20 years of d2 , i think i played hammerdin one time for a very short time. Probably 1 week worth of hammer play time. I just never like the pally. Its either too easy or too boring. The whole spamming hammers gives me ADHD
Hey phil. I built a lvl90 hammerdin and its soooo slow compared to the self weild nova sorc i just gave up and wemt back to my sorc. Less mf but its just faster 😕
I really want to gear my nova Sorc as well. But it’s hard to find 2 Bers lets alone put them aside for an infinity when I know I could make an enigma and use it for multiple characters. Playing on SP
You are the unluckiest person I've seen with facets 😅 the qty you find for non 5/5 is crazy I find maybe 1-2 facets a week or 2 weeks and they all the time or 99.9% 5/5
isnt this game auto pilot after a really short time and all the rewards have nothing to do with skill, everything with rng? so basically slot machine but instead of paying with money you pay with ur time? plus 80% of the items you find are completely useless, still people act like they achieved something 😂
I made a smiter paladin for ubers because i was mostly playing a sorc, but then i retired him, didnt play him and slowly just sold off his gear. Then i decided to gear him up a little, nothing crazy, enigma, hoto, cta, spirit, arach, soj + 10fcr ring, shako, maras, magefists. Respeced him to hammerdin, played for around 2 hours after that amount of time i had noticed a few things. Its very boring to play, its so slow its painful, bosses lived for weeks in comparison to my light sorc. He was tankier that was the only plus side. Its just so painfully slow, teleports slower, kills a lot slower, especially packs. Bosses werent that bad if they were standing still. I dont mean to shit on hammerdins, but the first time i tried one i was really disappointed. But fair enough i was comparing a good geared paladin with a top geared light sorc so that will of course color my perception as well. Thank god i already knew how to telestomp otherwise it would had been worse. I also had by that point changed from hoto to a +5cl, 5l orb with a 5-5 facet which also helps. Changed some charms around to get the res i lacked. Now i knew i didnt have the experience that i needed to get everything out of him, but that was experience you didnt even need with a light sorc. Its just aim and shoot, another plus side you can cast teleport one less time for every pack, because a sorc can kill them from afar and doesnt need to stand in the middle of the pack to be effective.

Going to start a SP run dedicated to a Hammerdin/Smite hybrid soon

Loving the vids and the comedic value 👌 keep slayin!
hdin is what got me into d2r, never forget
Love this channel man
Yo mega thanks. These types of comments really make me feel good.
Diablo has got you like a slot machine captured octogenarian
@Sweet Phil
What do you think of the Fist of the Heavens build?
Like it a lot
Love the content bro
Thanks for the video. Have you tried to hork travincal with bezerk for some hours. I think this gives you the most value per hour online
Another good vid phil. Keep slayin
Have they changed so you can up the player numbers in online ?

4:30 I think stony field shares the T zone with Tristram.
No it doesn't. Tristram is just tristram.
Thank you, Phil
Yesterday I was going to do chaos runs until I found a hr, found a cham 14 runs in!
I found a -71 lightning and -87 fire sunder off the same fallen pack in the room right before Andy in a terror players 7.
Also got a ral rune and an amulet with +1 sorc and 9fcr. Prob best run I’ve ever had. Not that a ral is that great, just adding it to the run cause it dropped. Lol
On my recently stayed offline character too!
Phil doesn't always find facets... but when he does, there 5/5s
GG finds 😀🤘💪
Great music in video
Lem rune is my favorite
its funny that the strongest build is actually a bug that were originaly fixed but the community whined and they reverted the fix.
Idk about hammerdins being the strongest build. Definitely in the top 5 though for both duels and farming
you never forget how to kickflip its like riding a bike.
Maybe I’m wrong, but I didn’t think all items where available in single player? Only in like online and ladder
I finally found a griffon in singleplayer!! Im playing on ps5. Still missing a stone of jordan very much. I already found one but i messed arround with the clock and somehow lost that soj. Havent been able to get my hands on another yet :(
dont need fcr on summon druid

You should identify blue monarchs!
Phil if you do a mosaic assasin ill send you a welders mask so you can play it without destroying your eyes😂.
Just wish I could port an enigma to my SP Xbox account.
Awesomeness
Got a hammerdin with ~380mf. It's just way too OP to not use lol. Haven't touched my MF sorc in so long.
Always play online, u could be that guy that found eth colossus sword fools mod, worth 5grand
Sorry about a noob question, but that 2/2 claw you got (blue "magic" one), can you make a runeword in that if you get x OS from Larzuk?
No, can only make rune words in Grey socketed items 👍 also if you larzuk a blue item it gets 1 or 2 sockets only.

Battle net is the only true playing...
So many facets and sundies lol
Who pays your rent?

Why do people mf and play on single player lol makes absolutely no sense to me
For fun 🤷♂️
To find items for their characters..?
do terror zones drop special items?
