I'm 86 now and will be going into tristram soon with my frenzier. I can take on the mini ubers easily. Unfortunately i've run into a few issues before i try tristram

here's my setup:

"eth" stormlash
dual shael heaven's light
duress
arreats
gores
dual raven
draculs
highlords
anni
torch
various AR/life/res charms

1) my resistances in hell with fade prebuff for fire and light are over 50 after meph's -125 conviction so that should be fine

2) do you need mana leech in uber tristram ? i haven't been there in a while and frenzy only costs 3 mana, does anything drain mana there either than the ghost summons and baal himself ?

3) with this setup, a few AR charms, level 30 frenzy and demon limb prebuff i only have around 9000 AR which at level 86 gives me around 70% chance to hit, the -target defense in my weapons makes this a bit higher but is there anything else i can do short of getting better AR charms ?

4) which direction should you approach the tristram center from ? in videos i see that people usually approach from the northwest and lure out one at a time

5) are the minions in tristram level 110 as well ? my howl is only level 11 so at 86 + 11 = 97 i wouldn't be able to scare them away right ?

6) each of the ubers has 50-55% chance to block, am i pretty much screwed unless i have near 95% chance to hit ?

1) Yes, i've done with less.

2) Manadrain as you write, can do with manapots. Maybe 2 rows if Baal is slow dying and continually drain you.

3) Use Battle Cry, especially on Baal this tips it over the edge in my favor. Stay with lifetap on Mephi tho...

4) I run west, then follow the wall all the way down and around east and up till skellies spawn and Meph is engaged. You can kite him abit upwards to make sure your not getting other uber attention.

5) I don't know about monster level, but for my 89 barb Howl works fine. You're going to need it especially against the ghosts and Baals other phys immune minions.

6) Dont think you will face a problem there, as long as you can keep open wounds up, as said I've been doing it it with less than 9000 AR.
