Starting anew..!

[Kwiky]

Just like the title says,

I've just recently returned to D2 and looks like alot has changed since I was last here (1.09ish?). If yall could help me with a few questions that'd be great.

1. Untwinked starting zon, which build out of these 3? Speedazon (still viable?), LF Javazon or this WWS Strafer I read about? I will not choose a different class, I did use to play a Hammerdin L96 season2 ladder, and a LF javazon during the cow farming days.

2. I know cows aren't that great for xp farming anymore but what is this new "Uber" or "Trist" I keep hearing about when trolling these forums?

3. what are all these new terms I read about (obviously items) "faith" among them.

1: Lightning zons are very strong untwinked, so that would be my suggestion.

2: A zone unlocked with the strongest monsters (Uber Diablo, Mephisto and Baal) in the game, upon clearing will drop a unique charm with very nice mods.

3: Faith = new runeword bow, great damage and gives Fanatism - ie. insanely easy to reach max speed. Goto arreat summit to view the new runewords.

Hmm.. yes lightning zon sounds good but this new "faith" weapon should be something worthwhile to aim for!

I think I may make a strafer based on aiming for that weapon +3 GMB "faith" with a "Pride" act2 Might Merc.

Never made a strafer so should be interesting.. and I'll go with no vit no nrg as well to really live on the edge :p

Uber zone sounds interesting, what's the requirements to open the zone? I assume its somewhat similar to cow lvl?

Btw lastly, if anyone would like to rush me through the acts (esp. act3 >:( ) that'd be great! I'll be on later today after work. Us-west Char name: Kwiky.

Thanks!
