Hi all.

I still see here guys asking for help with ubers, because they dont have smitter.
First what I want to tell. We can help you anytime, only ask on chat or forum for sure. We have fun and you have torch

I like do ubers always with my character (with cheap equpment when start ladder). So i want to give you some like guide how you can do it alone, because i think smitter is the cheapest build in diablo 2

So what do you need for defeat uber quest? Good resist under mephisto conviction aura, life, crushing blow, IAS. Some damage reduction, fhr, fire and light absorb.

we can use this switch items when use TREACHERY runeword for boost FADE but i am not sure if it work together or no but i do it all time


Stats points :

strenght : use how much you need for equip your items
dexterity : for max block (after boo with holy shield)
vitality : all rest here
energy : nothing

Skill points :

maxed :
fanaticism
holy shield
conviction
defiance

1 point :
zeal (for minions)

rest in :
smite

Strategy :

1. create hell game with your smitter
2. join game with your sorc for teleport
3. if you dont have CtA join with your barbarian for boo. If you have CtA dont need barbarian.
4. transmute first keyset, go in with all characters. Boo, cast holy shield for paladin and frozen armor for sorc, tele with your sorc. Open TP somewere close to boss. Sorc quit area (no game). Barbarian can leave game for faster killing.
5. go in TP with your paladin, use fanaticsm aura and smite (zeal if want kill minions)
do this for Forgoten sands, Matrons den and Furance of pain
6. if you have organs transmute it
7. go somewhere for boo if you dont have CtA and use your barbarian for boo
8. equipTREACHERY armor, switch weapons, go in some fire in tristam, wait for fade efect
9. eqiup your main armor, use main weapon and shield
10. use conviction aura take mephisto away from baal and diablo. Meph is life dog, go with you..
11. smite meph with conviction this give you a lot of resist under his conviction aura
12. use fanatism aura and smite diablo + baal
13. take your torch

That is all. I do it this way when i dont have better eqipment for my smitter. Sure somebody have better way, but this is only inspiration for your cheap uber smiter.

enjoy THE GAME.

 

Yes it would be, but i write this like cheap build and i think if you do some trav runs you have dwarf for sure. Dwarf can drop in nightmare

 

Yes you understandig is correct.
Salvation lvl 20 give you and your party: Fire/Cold/Lightning Resist +108%
Conviction lvl 20 give only for you: Defense -90%, Elemental Resistance -125% and this cancel Mephs conviction aura.

 

Shield from build is only for resistance, so sure you can use HoZ it have 50@res too and good other stats. And use some small res charms if need more resistances. Dont forget MAXED conviction aura for uber mephisto.
And i am sure you can make game named "free dracs pls" and comunity give you for free Draculs is sure better.

 

You can easy have resistance from:
Shield :Sacret targe/sacred rondache with all res +35 or more, socketed with 4xP diamond : +76 all res
Helm :Kira's Guardian all res +50-70
and it is enough, all these items you can have for free on server, only ask people. Base and runes for Dures runeword too and there is some resists too. If need any of this items PM me and i can give you in game.
Sure dont forget max conviction aura for uber mephisto.
Good luck.
