so I'm planning to make a char for pit running (among other things, I want a fairly versatile character with emphasis on pits). I imagine poison necro is superior to fishy when it comes to running pits? Or with CE is there any difference at all?

I'm leaning toward fishy, as I think fishy is better at ubers, key running, and boss running, which I would like to be able to do with my character in addition to pits. Is this true?

(edit) Also, this is going to be a fairly budget character.

Pits have no poison resists as I recall. And if you're running budget, I would think that fishys are slightly faster. Poison would mean you need to have pretty decent + skills to deal dmg.

The link below has one of the more definitive guides to pit running.

I use my fishy for pits, keys, and Baal. I did pits both before and after I got Enigma and honestly it was extremely fast both ways. I don't even summon many skellies anymore, just amp, wait for merc to get one corpse and then CE the crowds.

I don't use any poison skills and I'm not sure I would. Crowds are just so fight in pits that CE works every time.

poison necro is undisputed lord of the pits as far as speed of killing, as he can one-hit all the monsters players/8.
