Hi all


first of all I wanna thank you all (forum members) -this site has always been an inspiration for making new and not so casual characters...

Ever since 1.11 came around it has got'n difficult to make a good hybrid build!!!

I most say that -although i have respect for some-it would really be too boring for me to make a one spell or one attack performing character....

Soooo... I guess it's about time to summorize all the viable builds(hybrids)that
can survive hell.All you forum members please contribute-I'm really tired playing blessed hammerdins(I quit in nightmare already!),winddruids(although I sympathise...,and WWbarbs-fireballsorcs etc...

I will try to make a list for all viable options and please dear forum members
try to add more "fun" possibilities!Remember I like to use the weapon switch button!!!


1:Sorceress.

Frozen orb and chain lightning or fireball-that's about it me I think...

2:Barb

Haha nothing really here except WW and concentration barb
Frenzy barbs and Throw barbs are fun but I would love some combined possibilities...

3:Paladin

Really now-I want to be able to beat hell ALONE...Lots of zealing possibilies
(frost-fana-etc) I would advise a ranger!-but still only one way to go.

4:Necromancer

Ahaaa some good possibilities here...
pity that bone/summon got screwed after marrowwalk
and poison needs 60(!)points too :(

5:Amazon

Now this woman has some allround capacities!!
It doesnt take a lot of skillpoints to have a devastating lightning fury on switch-do with your bow skills whatever you like-I prefer frost maiden + some multi or strafe.
I'd like to make a nice poison ivy hybrid some day

6:Assassin

Very nice hybrids here I think.
All boils down to kickassa's with traps to go with them.Darn pity fire traps don't work as well PvM.The new assa rune word gives free venom for sure but you loose a lot of crushing blow from the best crushing blow runeword armour.

7:Druids

Forget it.Only fun build seems a Rabies/fireclaw build but 1.11 came too quick
so i never made one-elemental builds are just to hard to combine with other skills-think blzzard screw up here hehe

Soooooo I am left with my frost ama with some LF and my kickassa with some throw/lightning...

Come one forum members-please give me a good reason to make another really hybrid/fun character

greets

Pally - add Grief, you have XXXXX/smite hybrid.

I have a vanquisher, hammer/smite, but he doesn't use grief... and I'm expecting around 1.5k damage smite with no combat charms. With 14k hammers. But then... I've also devoted a lot of resources to him. The advantage?


For pvm, Hammers > Most, Hammers+smite > all + ubers

Barb:

WW/Throw - I have one and he's a lot of fun.

Pally:

FoHer/Cleric - one of the msot fun hybrids I've played

Assasin:

Blade Fury/Kicker

Sorc:

Orb/Firewall

Archmage



I'd also like to mention that if you're looking for somethign different and challenging then single tree builds fit the bill. On a dare I made a zon that used skills from only the passive & magic tree, and was melee to boot. It puts a new spin on the game to struggle through so limited in your choices.
