I have a lvl 72 hammerdin. his hammers are currently 6.7k dmg...is that horrible? or pretty much where i should be? or even good? thanks also, ive got some 200+ points in VIT, and 75 chance to block..yet he dies fairly fast in hell? any suggestions?

Every thing looks in order, I know little to nothing about hammerdins. What are your resists?

Sounds a little low. PLz understand that I know little to nothing about hammerdins. But any ways. Now that we know that much with items and what not. Lets look at where you are dieing in hell?

sounds to me like he just plane old needs some more levels. more points into vitality, and more points into holy sheild for higher defense....it gets much easier around level 85-88...also make sure you max resists, thats realy important.

Right, more levels all ways helps. What I was getting at is. What kinds of monsters are killing him? Is he dieing from range attacks or melee. I am highly doughting he is getting hit by melee attacks at all. What is beating him down?

let him get up in the high eighties. Then get yourself an enigma. That might help. Also, do you have a merc? Its always nice to have a tank while you fire away those hammers.

Yeesh. Couple of things matter:

1) Why in the world are you questioning your ability to kill in hell at lvl 72? I never even bother to advance my characters to hell until they're 75, and that's my set rule no matter how good they are...

2) With the gear you stated, your resists are *plenty* fine. 75% block, :thumbsup: . You must have huge defense, because my zealot's up'd GA has off-the-wall defense.

My hammerdin is only lvl 82, and only does about 6300 damage with each hammer...but I can't remember the last time he died. Just play safe. With your kind of gear, Heart Of the Oak, um'd HoZ, Shako, & up'd GA, you should be a downright tank to *anything*. My gear is nowhere near that, I'm only using the regular old Pdiamond HoZ/Wizspike/Vipermagi/Shako...

Yes you would but you can make up for that with resist all small charms. Inless you realy want the 90% resist all. The block rate gained from ga is easyly out done. From skill points added to holy sheild. Not only that but if you need more then enuff skill points in holy sheild for max block, you are doing some thing wrong. I realy do not see you getting hit by large amounts of melee attacks.
