I’m pretty new to the expansion. Experiencing NM and soon Hell for the first time in Hardcore with my WW barb.

I know never to WW in Diablo’s sanctuary and I recently realized in NM they have Obliv Knights down in Baal’s minion level and the one right above it. This caught me by surprise as they weren’t there on Normal. It could have been the end of my poor Barb if I hadn’t gotten lucky.

Are there any other places to add to this list where you should never WW because of IM or any other reason?

Chaos Sanctuary (all)
Baal’s Minion level (Nm, Hell?)
Level above Minion level (Nm, Hell?)

Thx

Just Never WW when you see IM cast on you, other then that you should be good to go anywhere.

Chaos Sanctuary (always)
Worldstone Keep, level 3 (Nightmare and Hell, at least until you know for sure there are three other monster types other than Oblivion Knights... levels 1 and 2 are safe)
Throne of Destruction (Nightmare and Hell, at least until you know for sure there are three other monster types, possibly longer since Stygian Dolls can also bite you in the arse when they die)

There's also an area of the Ubers quest that I've heard has Oblivion Knights in it, but you don't sound like you're planning to do that any time soon.

"Just Never WW when you see IM cast on you, other then that you should be good to go anywhere."

That works until something just off screen casts IM on you in mid-whirl. I just wanted to make sure I know ahead of time where IM could possibly be. Looks like the “ubers” is the only other place I got to watch out for. It’s correct that I will not be doing that any time soon seeing as I don’t even really understand what/where that is :P

Thanks for the info

PhatTrumpet is right. Definitely do not take the advice about WWing is OK as long as you're not IMed, but it looks like you already know that.

I also wouldn't WW in Uber tristram. You cannot really get any mana from them..
