Lol i use to feel that way when i was a kid. But when you get older hours to grind vs life and work. You have to buy for the builds lol work wife kids. It takes seconds to buy an item and if you make good money in a career, spending time grinding items in a game is counter productive.
after running a separate hammerdin and smiter, I tried a hybrid a smiter/hammerdin. its surprisingly fun being able to switch hammer to smite. I love being able to farm anywhere in the game including uber's

Sacred Targe Shield has the best block %, which will save you 10-15 Dex. I only put 1 point into Holy shield and placed the rest of the points between Fire and Light Aura for the increased maximum resistance. Gear wise I opted for Mara's Amulet just because of the massive resistance and +2 all skills for more damage and a better CTA buff. I use a FCR ring to reach the 125 break point which has +18 Str / Fire Light res / +38 Life and a BK ring. I will swap the BK ring for a Dwarf Star for Chaos runs (15% Fire absorb + 40 life) or Wisp ring for Baal runs. For boots I use upped Waterwalks, you just can't beat the +65 Life / 15 Dex / +5 Max Fire res mods. 4.1k Life / 15k Hammer Dmg / 85 Fire res / 80 Light res
7:51 i prefer Aldur's advance battle boots, easier to find plus 50 to life, plus 50 to fire resist and 40% faster run and walk, besides indestructible.

May I ask why everybody says paladin have to put points into salvation to tank mephisto conviction aura. But isn't it more effective if I put points to resist lightning? It gives me passive max lightning resist and Mephi's main attack is lightning. Since I already learned resist lightning for passive max resist, I just need tu put on it and it gives huge bonus to my lightning reistance. Is there any reason to learn salvation?
You can be over powered and still be underdefended. If you have access to all of those skillers I doubt it though, so my comment is fairly pointless....

Holy bolt does almost nothing to wave 2 of Baal's minions now. Lv 96 Hammerdin with BIS gear, charms etc. Am I missing something or did the patch really decimate Holy bolt's damage that much just cause it got rid of the Blessed Hammer synergy? How do you deal with Wave 2, or magic immunes in general now?
I always put 10 in HolyBolt so I can range those Oblivion Knights that run away. It also kills Soul type ghost pretty quick and mostly for the wave2 Baal minions. Hate those unravellers lol
Bruh i have a personnal rule in d2. If a f*cking mob run away from me i don't kill it and teleport to the next pack. Ain't no way i'm losing a whole minute running after those.
i followed a maxroll guide but this build is kicking my butt. still not sure how to move around with it. Holy Fire was simpler for me. I am at level 24 now but hopefully i will get the hang of Hammerdin soon.
As a new hammerdin who just respecced at lvl 40 normal.. what is better for mana management? A spirit sword or a mercenary with insight? I am saving the larzuk quest for one of these two weapons. Please someone help me ✌🏻😜😎
This weird idea that everyone keeps regurgitating that you shouldn't put any points into energy even now when you have infinite respecs, if you're playing a caster it just makes the early game way less annoying to invest points into mana at the start and later respec, I mean I put half my points into it and I still die VERY slowly as a sorc at normal difficulty.
Thanks Phil, Been playing D2R on and off since it released and have killed Baal-Hell on my Sorc/Necro with relative easy. Started leveling me a WW-barb but the motivation of playing that character kinda fell after level 40-ish. After watching this video I might try out the Hammer Paladin. It seems like a decently interesting gameplay with the Teleporting, switching aura's combined with a nice-and-strong way to deal damage that isn't depending on Attack Rating. Let's see how far I get with this one... at least I have my Spirit Sword already made from previous playthroughs...
On legacy my last pally used a mage plate Enigma so that i didn't need any strength.. I never checked how much of a defence difference it really was at the end of the day, but i never died so w.e.
A perfect MP enigma is 1076 A perfect AP enigma is 1378 302 defense difference IME it’s worth the 300 defense to go for a high (at least 14%ed and 770+ roll) MP for the zero points into str. Me and my bro made identical hdin builds. He had a 13% 774 AP I had a 14% 772 MP The extra life afforded me more survivability despite the def difference.
Great video, Phil! Building my 1st Pally rt now. Wanted to see if I was doing it right. Only difference is that I put 1 pt into meditation instead of retribution (? Did I get that right?). Anyway, may put 1 point into that one as well. Never hurt if I get in a game w a Necro
I’ve got the runes for Nigma I just can’t find a decent 3os armor on single player. On multiplayer I have a 582 def 15ed DS just don’t have the dunes 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Probably you already solved that problem, but just run past them. The vipers in level 2 are only poison immune. No need to kill every singly monster in the game. Playing sorc would be impossible then, lol.
problem with hammers, they don't allways hit everything, there are gaps in the rings, i'd rather use FoH, even thought it is not as good as hammers. But with hammers, i allways feel i am missing something.
You can for sure hit +38% blocking and be able to hit +10 base points into either resist fire/resist light for the +5 max res, as well as like 4-5 points into another resist aura by level 94 for another +2 max res I usually will go resist light if I do a lot of pvp for trappers, javazons, foh/magedin, light sorc. For pvm I will do resist fire for trav farming. If you slap an eth up’d Gangel and a eth Kira’s on your merc, and you replace a ring with a dwarf.. you and your merc will eat hydras for breakfast and you can crank out trav farming super duper quick. Very easy to join a Baal game, farm LK, trav, meph (with council) by the time the Baal game is over. Obviously that’s with maphack. But given that maphack has been around since December, y’all should have it by now
Hey man thanks for the video and A for effort but this is a very very outdated hammerdin build. Hoto, Bk and Soj gotta go, Check it out. Wizspike with up'd hoz is the only way to reach max fcr and the res stack is unbeatable plus u have higher mf. Additionally you should be useing caster rings not bk or soj better mf and fcr. TRUST ME and try this hybrid build I'm about to explain been playing since release that's 23 years lol.. It's expensive requires atleast lvl 90 Char, a lot of skill and game knowledge but you will actually be unbeatable in a series duel and have a equally fantastic mfer hdin. I used to duel for forum gold (Online Currency) all the time and it's actually THEY BEST build i've ever seen, NO CAP!!!!. Hdin/charger/foh hybrid build with 12k hmr dmg, 1-50kdmg charge switch, and 10k foh dmg. Beens years since I made it but I used Wizspike with res jewel, and up'd hoz same jewel, enigma, tri res caster rings and ammy, tri res boots, grief ZERKER not PB switch with cathans rings/ammy when i needed to charge. and kept a cube in my invy for cta and the cathans rings set for ar. rest of the invy space was for pcombs, torch and 20 lifer sc's. I changed my weapon overtime and i can't remember if I used eth zerk botd or grief zerk. either will work for charge switch but one was much better than the other and it needs to be a zerker so u dont waste stat points and the 1 hit dmg is greater than Phase Blade. Max ur hammer skills, 1 skill point into charge and use the rest for FOH Try this build and you will almost never lose. Charge for sorcs and bowazons, foh for anytype of summoner build who you couldn't jump on. But also good when going vs full hammerdins as you are a hybrid build so you either have the option to out synch other other hdin or use ur combination of synch hammers and foh maybe charge him if he has low def build and you have good positioning. It's a super rare build and ur dueling mate will never see it coming. Cheers and really try this build you will be blown away that anyone would bother playing a regular hammerdin.
A truly top tier lightning sorc clears chaos faster than a hammerdin in 8 player games. One with 15k chain lightning and -85% elr holding an infinity. Yes, this kind of sorc’s gear is far more expensive, but if she’s top tier.. she makes a hammerdin look bad.
if you throw 1 point into fan you can pretty easily do ubers with a hammerdin, swap out shako, hoz-spirit, hoto, war travs and maras and replace them with a grief, exile, highlords, gface and gores, and you have a pretty potent tele smiter for ubers without having to respec. the downside is you would have to put enough stats into str and dex to swap gear freely meaning you have less for vit- HP pool. also holy shyt bro are you new or something? skilling for basic bIOtch hammerdin is hammers and synergies the rest into holy bolt to deal with magic immune like wave 2 of baal. your needlessly wasting points on holyshield :/ i also noticed you not using cleansing to clear poison and curses, thats like not using vigor when running through town.
I mean not getting 1pt into fanaticism is a crime. U could run a smiter as needed to clear Ubers or wave 2 Baal etc in emergency. Also as u are leveling 1pt into salvation is always nice.
way too weak hammerdin try reaching 125 fcr 75blckrate all res -f/c/l/p over 110+ , 200 300mf and 15-15k hammer dmg . iF YOU EVAN think its not posseble come back to me :D
two mistakes on your build, you don't need trang'oul gloves and the amulet With just Hoto and a perfect spirit shield (35% FCR which you have) you get the 75% breakpoint. I rather have Bloodfist as glove (double augmented trough the cube), and Mara kaleidoscope for that +2 skills to Battle Order. Nice and Compact guide tho.
As a veteran player back in the days , I prefer a Hoz shield 🛡 , a coa for helm with two ber runes . survivability is utterly important for a 8 player game . I always went with magefist gloves. I agree with maras amulet
@@justingodbout91 the problem with hoz is that it doesn't have any fcr. But it's a very good Shield. Personnaly I rock the COA with 2 ber but it's not build friendly.

@@SweetPhil Mines always turns off by itself idk why might be a bug? I always have to re-check the box. Maybe it does the same to you?
Ill just get enigma real quick
A truly top tier lightning sorc clears chaos faster than a hammerdin in 8 player games. One with 15k chain lightning and -85% elr holding an infinity. Yes, this kind of sorc’s gear is far more expensive, but if she’s top tier.. she makes a hammerdin look bad.
I agree
if you throw 1 point into fan you can pretty easily do ubers with a hammerdin, swap out shako, hoz-spirit, hoto, war travs and maras and replace them with a grief, exile, highlords, gface and gores, and you have a pretty potent tele smiter for ubers without having to respec. the downside is you would have to put enough stats into str and dex to swap gear freely meaning you have less for vit- HP pool. also holy shyt bro are you new or something? skilling for basic bIOtch hammerdin is hammers and synergies the rest into holy bolt to deal with magic immune like wave 2 of baal. your needlessly wasting points on holyshield :/ i also noticed you not using cleansing to clear poison and curses, thats like not using vigor when running through town.
Anybody else lost singleplayer champions and can not play singleplayer anymore after the last patches 1 week ago?
Haven't seen that but every time I log off my god damn hotkeys reset
@@matthewlaplante9293 thanks for answering, yes this is an issue too, it is a pitty.
They fix one thing break another..If you lost characters that's tough. I'd try contacting them. If your on console though your shit outta luck.
@@Dead-xk1lk ty, I contacted them, they ignore me, it is like you say :-D I am on PC but still Blizzard is Blizzard.
@@matthewlaplante9293 I had that. There's a new option in the settings that allows you to set the default keybinding to legacy
you cant argue the killing power, however for me it was just a super tedious and boring build. absolutely cannot wait for the 2.4 FOHdin.
I mean not getting 1pt into fanaticism is a crime. U could run a smiter as needed to clear Ubers or wave 2 Baal etc in emergency. Also as u are leveling 1pt into salvation is always nice.
That's what HolyBolt is for. You use HolyBolt on the wave 2 minions.
way too weak hammerdin try reaching 125 fcr 75blckrate all res -f/c/l/p over 110+ , 200 300mf and 15-15k hammer dmg . iF YOU EVAN think its not posseble come back to me :D
Its strong, but no where near the fastest clearing build.
This is literally the best build in the game idk what you're on about. 😂
Tbh I hate the gameplay of hammerdin. It's somehow boring and tedious at the same time.
two mistakes on your build, you don't need trang'oul gloves and the amulet
With just Hoto and a perfect spirit shield (35% FCR which you have) you get the 75% breakpoint.
I rather have Bloodfist as glove (double augmented trough the cube), and Mara kaleidoscope for that +2 skills to Battle Order.
Nice and Compact guide tho.
As a veteran player back in the days , I prefer a Hoz shield 🛡 , a coa for helm with two ber runes . survivability is utterly important for a 8 player game . I always went with magefist gloves. I agree with maras amulet
@@justingodbout91 the problem with hoz is that it doesn't have any fcr.
But it's a very good Shield.
Personnaly I rock the COA with 2 ber but it's not build friendly.
Is no mistake. He went for the max breakpoint of 125%.
Spirit sucks
125% is the max not 75....
Nobody knew about this build before, how did you think of it?!?!?!
Did he say this? This builds old. He definitely didn't think of it.
Hang on aren't hammerdin shit at p2 and up???
Javazon is better.
I agree.
Why the fuck do I need a guide if I can afford an Enigma? The amount of these low quality guides on the Internet is disheartening
Then don't watch it
Algo
This character is dis…sting 🙄😅😅
Lol @ PVM hdin bot build
Tha lamest and the most boring of builds is here, watch it
Too complicated.
Nice guide but you are saying alot of terminology wrong... makes me doubt you ...
I tried to respect my lvl 42 paladin into a hammerdin and now diablo spanks me on normal. Lol fml.
