The key to assassin survival are Dragon Flight, Mind Blast, and Cloak of Shadows. I also suggest you do some more Nightmare Baal runs for some more exp (you can easily hit level 75 there) and for item drops. You should add the rest of your skill-points into Lightning Sentry synergies to boost lightning damage. Once a monster gets killed, the corpse explosion inflicted by the Death Sentry will make short work of other monsters. Together with your Mercenary, the Shadow Master should be capable of killing lightning immune monsters.
Other good skills to have are "Fade" to boost resistances (really useful in Hell) and Shadow Master. Then max Lightning Sentry and Death Sentry skills. You'll want to put just enough strength/dexterity points to equip gear, all other stat-points should go into vitality. You can respec (re-allocate all your skill- and stat-points) I'd try a Trapsin. While summon Necros usually don't have much problems to get through all difficulties, the melee assassin is sadly not a very viable build and will have troubles without proper gear. In Diablo 2 melee builds are generally more reliant on good items than caster builds (although good caster builds also need good items). If you're having trouble hitting monsters in Hell, the Blessed Aim one in Normal Act 2 is also an option. Either the Might aura one or the Defiance aura one would be best. Probably the most useful mercenaries for you would be one of the Nightmare Act 2 mercenaries. Death Set (Leather Gloves and Sash, don't use the Sword).2x Strength Runeword (Amn + Tir) in claws (Greater Talons or Runic Talons).Vitality: Every other point should go into here.Strength: As much as you need to wear all your equipment.I know you're only level 74, but this may give you a better idea of the end build you should be shooting for. You could also hire a Barbarian mercenary and find a Vile Husk Tusk Sword (which has a chance of casting amp damage on strike) for him, but meh.Īnother thing you could try is to re-spec into a build that relies on crushing blow to kill monsters, as well as poison damage: You also have a few cheap weapon options which might help at first (I'm thinking Act 1-2 here) due to their added elemental damage and other nice melee bonuses, but aren't long term solutions: Decrepify will also work, though I'm not sure if that actually comes as charges on a wand.
The best diablo 2 resurrected assassin build skin#
Amplify damage will let you break PI's in most cases (this won't work on monsters that are normally physical immune across all difficulties, such as Ghosts, or Stone Skin champions). Try to buy a wand with amplify damage charges from Akara or any of the other wand NPC's and put that on your switch. Now if you REALLY want to stick with your Melee Assassin, you can also break physical immunities relatively easily if the other monsters are giving you no trouble. Sorceresses do not require a lot of great gear to survive Hell mode, and in turn make it much easier to magic find and get better items which can help your Assassin. What I do strongly recommend to do, rather than re-spec your Assassin, is to put it on hold and instead make a Sorceress. Possibly Chaos Sanctuary runs, though this may be a bit slow.Do Countess runs in Act 1 to farm runes, transmute them, and make lower end runewords.Things I suggest you do if you take this route are: Although there's a large amount of monsters with lightning immunity in Hell, making it difficult to get very far without "super great items", this will help you easily do magic find runs on Nightmare mode until you get better gear. One thing you can try to do is to re-spec into a Trap Assassin, primarily using the Lightning sentries to kill monsters. You could probably do some sort of fun PvM build by making a bear sin (Beast runeword weapon with Pride helm and/or shield), though those pieces of equipment are quite expensive.
In general, melee Assassin builds are better served for PvP rather than PvM. Pretty much all builds will struggle in Hell without some decent gear to put on your character. Unfortunately, Diablo 2 is a very, very item dependent game, which is probably why you are struggling on Hell mode.
