This is awesome, excited to see you do the last video! Your % to hit is low becasue you are under leveled to the monsters. Theres 2 calculations to hit, one for AR and one for Level that get combined. Good luck. Its been fun to watch:)
Good on you for doing NM, no matter what those nay sayers say :P this has been very enjoyable to watch your struggle using a mere wirts leg. also i love the music choice, too damn cool :)
Great video! I think the only way to get through hell would be crushing blow and loads of IAS. The elemental damage will soon drop off. I think treachery (for the res too) and hustle on switch for the IAS, then pray for a Gface or some CB boots from farming
Those charm drops were amazing haha. Ideally I would say you try to roll another wirt's leg and ideally get fools mod + 1/2 sockets ideally and at least put an eth rune in there. Maybe a bit of terror zoning to find Guillaume's Face for some deadly strike and more crushing blow. Duress chest for open wounds and crushing blow and a nice cold ele damage boost. Goblin toe is a good chance too and if you're lucky you eventually find gore riders. Raven frost for AR and CBF, but if you dont find that you might want that rhyme handy. Bit of a reach but even finding the 3 piece death set with the sword in offhand as a stat stick isn't a bad option for all the sick bonuses. Getting a point in battle cry to help hit, war cry for some crowd control and grim ward for a bit of cc + damage. A point in whirlwind to spread that cb and open wounds on weaker enemies. Good luck on hell
Got tons of advice, one helm swap it to hearth, as it will give you cannot be frozen. Get a point in battle cry as it will help so much with gameplay in hell due to so much physical damage coming your way. Will allow you to wear string and hearth without feeling the missing AR from Sigons. Use the ko rune to make hustle armor as it will give the much needed ias. Treachery pre buff if you can get it.
Not sure if it's possible, but can you do frenzy with Wirt's leg and a fist? Will increase the attack speed and proc CB more. Also why no A2 nm merc yet?
No you need 2 weapons to be held for frenzy and I didn't want an actual weapon in my offhand because I felt like it was cheating. I eventually got an Act 2 merc in hell, just took my time to get around to it.
Hustle weapon & cure helm for merc G face would be great for the barb and any other CB item as well. Also, you might need to use zerk much more Reroll the leg
This is going to sound dumb, but I have actually done this challenge! However, I did it in a *way* easier form than you - I love jewels, so I play with a mod where you can buy 10 random jewels from drognan. And yeah I just stuffed gear full of damage jewels and conc barbed my way to the end of the game with a bit of cb from gloves and the ol' reliable goblintoe. Your approach is so much cooler tho and I loved the crafting etc you've been pulling out. Subbed and hope to see more boutique runs like this. On a vaguely related note: rare jewels are my favourite item type in diablo 2, and I feel like they are unironically one of the rarest drops of the rare normal types. I genuinely think if blizz just upped the drop rate on jewels by like 50% it would make the game straightforwardly more fun - customising your gear with jewels is super fun, and rune words are so dominant that giving people any incentive to just enjoy random socketed gear is good for fun imo. EDIT: Tiamat's u lucky bugger
This is some good shit man, your definitely gonna need goblin toes and as much crushing blow as you can get along with open wounds and craft the 3 socket wires leg and pump as much damage out of that as you can. You'll definitely want multiple sources of elemental damage to fend off the immunes
I think you need need to do a bit of farming in nightname. Smoke, goblin toes, bulwark helm. I’d run countess and Andy. Id switch back to an act2 merc, insight and cure, smoke. All easy to make. Don’t rush it, wait till 60 and start hell. Get 3 socket leg and put some cool jewels in it. Lol gl!
That shield meph dropped was epic

@kashinewell6239 Yeah, I was super under levelled. I didn't even consider that for the AR but you are right on with that. Good pick up.
goblin toe, rattle cage, laying of hands
@mythrail My ideal items would be Goblin Toes/ Gore Riders, Raven frost and G face I think. Chances are low getting most of that tho.
Best Ancients ever 😄
Great challenge run. Very fun.
Looks like you have a leg up on the competition... I'll see myself out.

Great advice. Battle cry will do wonders for chance to hit and phys dmg reduction. That and howl will probably be necessities in hell.

get a 3 socket wirts leg or imbue one and then socket it at larzuk?
gear wise gotta get goreriders i think for boots would help

Hell time 🎉
32:05 leap Attack
Hustle weapon & cure helm for merc
G face would be great for the barb and any other CB item as well.
Also, you might need to use zerk much more
Reroll the leg
I would definitely not reroll that leg.
i'd get a New one from hell for higher Ilvl.
If you get Gface and Gtoe + angelic combo you can go warwind and win
Let's gooooo!
Just make a Wirtwind build, true misery
3x eth might work nice for leg if you want to hit stuff.. 3x ith is 27 max damage..
Zealot would've been more fun to watch
I tried to stay away from Paladin as I thought it would be too easy with access to holy fire etc.
yeah battle cry is a must mate, almost completely negates the need for dex points imo because you can get to minus 100% defence

@callumv9758 Yeah, crushing blow is gonna be the only way to get through hell for sure. Especially boss killing
@RNGesus_Channel crushing blow, open wounds and as much elemental damage as you can get
if you get a nature's peace this will probably go faster
3os wirt ,triple shael all the way
@@mick-wtf I'm not sure x3 Shael is needed if I go with hustle. I wonder what the wirts leg breakpoint is
Clutch Tiamat

Grind for a Gface maybe?
@@zipper2fly G face would be killer if I can get one
Lk runs until you get 3 ber runes then get a 3os leg for 60cb lol
@@Cripj-mf7ld 😄 I mean, 3 bers I could cube 2 of them to a Jah and make enigma and just tele hell
@RNGesus_Channel or get a 2os leg and put lum ber in it for the dad joke
@Cripj-mf7ld 😂😂 OK that got me. Well done sir
28:23 no waves clip 😢
@mihata-gaming yeah, it wasn't overly exciting. I lead the last 2 waves out the door and didn't even try to fight them
