yeah...how do you manage to deal with the conviction + lighting dmg from meph?
maxed res? high life? etc....
You can stand far enough that you won't get hit by lightning damage from Meph, but merc must have massive stacked resists to survive (like CoH + Kira). Minions don't really seem to get effected by the damage (at least mine don't). Even if you managed to get the skeletons killed somehow, revives are outright invulnerable.
true enough...
so decrep tele on top and run back...and hope somewhere in between you don't get nailed by some massive dmg?
hows your res during conviction?
Haven't checked, but I imagine it's pretty low. I have just enough resist gear to max resists (no stacking). I have 2k something hit points after BO, and even then lightning takes off huge amounts of HP. So yeah, teleport and run away
lol..ok pretty much what ive been doing..however without an act 2 merc with massive CB i can't kill the ubers...so ive had to call on my zmiter both times ive tried (even with a small contingent of cows lol...yeah cows...and maulers)
right now im doing ubers with my friends and its a bit challenging....i dont think i can do ubers alone? i have ur set up exactly the same and my merc has the same setup. I can do mini ubers with no problem but in ubers diablos minions keep spawning like crazy.
I think you should just try and tele onto diablo and then terror the minions away from you. After watching foosofts video i tried the same thing and it worked out fine. Just remeber to keep the pitlords away from your urdars! You want them scoring cb hits on diablo, not wasting their precious 3 minutes on the pitlords! O and very nice run foosoft, inspired me to try the ubers again after my first failure.Originally Posted by comson
hmm What kind of torches did you find? :grin:
well i have the same setup as you do only merc has Bramble armor and eth CV infinity. and i just ran the ubers solo for the first time. (Also im lvl 89) and it was difficult but i can out succesful... (got a 16-15 Ptorch! woot) but i didnt use the terror curse which i probably should have used cuz i got raped by minions and my merc did die 2x (damn him) but overall the run went great. TY foosoft for excellent build.
First off, excellent build for a summoning necro. After hearing that a summoning necro would get owned against the ubers, I was really looking forward to finishing this build and going on my first run. Yesterday, I finally had my chance. My lvl 87 necro. had little trouble taking on the ubers. I only used 3 potions for myself and 4 potions for my merc (nm act 2.) Neither of us died! As far as the run, I did revive 3 or 4 urdars, with a couple of pit lords, and I have 15 mages, 15 skeletons, and my clay golem. When I entered Tristram, I was able to single out Mephisto, and I had absolutely NO problems with him. I used 0 potions and my merc used 1. After that, in my failed attempt to solo Baal, I engaged in a very interesting fight against BOTH Baal and Diablo. I did lose all my mages during this fight, but I lost none of my skeletons or revives. Also, like I stated earlier, my merc stayed alive, and I never felt myself in any kind a danger. Terror and Decrepify are as good as advertised!! This was my first attempt at building a necro., and I have to say he is probably my favorite character now. Great job Foosoft on the build, and I highly recommend this build for anyone out there looking to build a summon necro.
