    New to Hardcore

    Hi folks..

    bcause i whant to start a hardcore char like a zealot pally or something is this playable for a starter? and isnt it better to make an MF char or so? or is it just kill kill kill.. :P and maybe there will drop something??

    HC is the same as SC only if you die you lose what you had. So usually the hardcore builds are more about survival then highest dmg possible.

    I wouldnt recommend starting with a meleeclass. These classes are more geardependant then ranged characters. Personally i would start with a mf sorc to run some nm meph to get some gear fast. But other options like a javazon or hammerdin are good too.

    When playing in publics you have to be really carefull. There are a lot of tppk-ers. On normal its ok until you hit 25 for baalruns. The only thing that might kill you is an enchanter if you join such games or a low enchanted amazon with GA. I generally dont trust anyone higher then 40 when i do baalruns and i dont trust bowazons from 30+.

    Thats why from 25+ i usually join a1 games(anygame with more then 3-4 players and do solobaalruns(until 45-48)+eldritch shenk(till im like 34).

    Safe al the pgems you create because those get you some good starters gear for not many. And cheap runewords are your friend (spirit for example)

    There is a guide in the Strategy Compendium about Maximum Damage Paladins that are extremely workable at low levels running through optimal skill placement...it should be ok if you take it slow and go back to the well; do not rush it at first, enjoy the heady flow and then when you have an idea of the pace of play you can revert to SC styling's in a HC world!

    Shout any of us KTA lot if you need help anywhere on Eu ok dude?
