Awesome video. Love crainte vomir it’s been my favourite quirky weapon for years. I use it on my solo SF barb paired with a doombringer which also has a special place in my heart :). I would have put Butchers Pupil amongst those as well. I did a solo hardcore run with a berserk barb build and was lucky to drop it. I then found a Lucky Pul to up it in Hell and it carried me to the entire game pretty much / except the end of act 5 as I’d dropped an Um for crescent moon at that point for baals killing blow. Butchers pupil is a solid weapon

The Decrepify on hit from Lawbringer massively upgrades the damage Grief does by breaking most physical immunes or reducing physical damage reduction by 50%. And it has a higher level Sanctuary aura for more Magic damage on hit. Lawbringer is a better switch weapon on a physical Zealot or off hand Frenzy (physical builds). Azurewrath may be a better choice on an elemental melee character like an Avenger with Conviction aura to boost the Elemental damage effectiveness on the weapon, but the Physical damage converted by Vengeance to Elemental would be relatively low.

Nightsmoke is the only item on your list I can see on a true endgame build, and that automatically puts it on first place for me. It's a comfortable item to use on a Zerker barb or you can make a lower skill investment Energy Shield sorc with it that stacks damage taken goes to mana to a point where it has technically endless mana and still goes max vita (and guess who is stashing rare jewels with that stat... lol). If there is a clear better choice, it's hard to evaluate how underrated an item is. That said I think Stormlash IS underrated, it is insanely rare, and well known, but I think most people just go with Grief and the other obvious stuff without having first hand experience with Stormlash.

BEST part of Bloodfist gloves is the +5 minimum damage. At level 9 this makes a GIGANTIC difference for weapon damage characters. Combine Bloodfist with my triple armor/dual helm 20/2 poison jeweled pretties, and then a triple socket weapon for either fire, lightning or even more poison damge, along with some dmg charms, and your leveling up in normal and even parts of nightmare speeds up massively. Also, never to be forgotten, Hsarus defense set and Sigon's steel, both are excellent for speeding up levelling. And Sigon worked so well on at least on character that even in late Nightmare, still using it.

Excellent list of items what Hardcore characters look for. Like a speed runner almost died laughing when rare mob dropped Bloodfist gloves. At that LVL with almost any character you get double the life points just equiping these gloves. Nightsmoke I put on every energy Sorc I ever made, why? The all resist and damage to mana helped alot during mana burn. The Moses shield or Ward shield helped a F$#ked ton for resistance issues. The lightsaber with sanctuary order was perfect for Nel runs BC it's alot of Undead. Shaftstop nobody ever threw that away.

Thinking Fury Druid or something, maybe doubleswing barb? Those Bloodfist gloves would be sweet on any physical bowazon, through normal and early NM! I think Coif of Glory may be underrated, i find it a lot on newer characters, in ladder, and found a couple in pre-ladder. and they arfe amazing, can last a long time too. I'm only just now finding out how amazing some slowing, blinding and other CC effects can make certain harder builds way more viable!

Well hopefully these are backed up offline characters, because you just dropped your sorceress' gauntlets and quit the game, destroying them entirely.

Cube upgrade the belt even getting it to exceptional. Which is pretty low level runes and a perfect diamond.

I play only hardcore, and to be honest i do use almost all of these items. I do not use crainte vomir, and i did not find a fleshripper, but: - My hammerdin is using guardian angel AND infernostride, his mercenary did use headstriker for some time. - My wolf druid is using shaftstop AND moser shield - i found an eth rockstopper on ladder start day, it helped me through nightmare, but i had to put it on mercenary after mephisto, only 2 durability left.

It's better if your resistances are good. Viper magi doesn't have faster hit recovery

Right now I am stacking plus to skills, FHR, and Life on my summon druid. Very squishy. Is it viable that I should have a build where I am dodging enemies because I die super quickly? Im in nightmare with negative resistances but my summons pump out tons of damage. For example instead of using a rockstopper I would have a wolfskin hat with +2 to skills and nothing else.
@GGMentor
@GGMentor 2 жыл бұрын
Summon druids tend to focus on their pets yes, so they often are very squishy.

@GGMentor

If your talking about shaftstop no that is physical damage reduction only. It functions as physical resistance and is affected by lowering physical resistance too such as amplify damage. It does not reduce fire, ice, lightning, poison, or magic damage only physical. www.theamazonbasin.com/wiki/index.php/Damage_Resist
