Am I ready for Ubers yet?

[belmont]

guys, please don't laugh at me if I am not,
I am just curious coz everyone is talking about this quest.

I just upped to lvl92 thank numerous baal runs in full game! :thumbup:

again please don't laugh if you think i am so weak that i shouldn't even think about taking ubers. everyone has to start from somewhere right?

so a few questions:

1. Am I ready for Ubers yet?
my spec:
lvl 92,
life 877,
Defense: 2000
all resist 75 (lite resist 81)
max skill: RS, SM, CE. other skills reached >14 due to +skill items
Merc: damage 1400-3500, his defense 6000

so, is it even possible for me to take ubers? if so, what strategy would you recommend?

And some side questions:

2. It looks like Oblivion Knight in WSK can NOT be revived even though they are white named. Why is that?

3. How to deal with absolutely physical immunes? I met one witch (hot chick with wings who throw red lighting balls). she is PI and I tried AR, LR, Decrepify, nothing works.

4. I got these set items and I think they are at least of some value. but I couldn't decide what to keep. I am fishymancer myself so I probably need none of those. but anyway, which of those you think is worthy of keeping?

Taebaek's Glory ward
Mavinas embrace karken shell
Tal Ralsha's lidless eye

5. what spec do you share with your merc and skelly? I mean I know double leech on the merc benefits merc himself, and cannot be transferred to me. so mana leech on merc weapon means nothing. what about the specs on myself? let's say I have a weapon that has ignore target defense/crushing blow/hit blind target/deadly strike/enhanced damage/double leech/extra gold/magic finding. which of those specs on MYSELF's weapon also take effects on my merc and skelly, too?

Sorry for throwing so many questions at once. Thanks a lot for your suggestions! :thumbup:

I think this question belongs in the Necro forum.
You'll likely find more experienced uber-fishies there.

thanks, I'll post my question there. :D

I think you will have a tough time surviving in there by yourself (as a Necromancer). Because the Ubers are capable of doing so much damage in one hit (due to Mephisto's crazy conviction aura) you will probably die quickly unless you have a great amount of full rejuvenation potions. That's why most people choose melee characters for Ubers with life tap. However, you may be able to pull it off if you can lure one Uber to you at a time.

[belmont]

what if I use life tap on my skelley so they don't die and i just hide near them to quaff on rejuvenations? :)

Don't forget, Mephisto can summon minions right where your character stands, so coordinating an attack will be challenging as well for a Necromancer.
