Best Hammerdin guide?

Well I know there are a lot of guides out there, after already messing up my first hdin I was wondering what is the best Hdin guide out there?

I was going to use http://strategy.diabloii.net/news.php?id=535 but its 4 years old.

I am manly a solo player and would like to MF.

Thanks

Re: Best Hammerdin guide?

As you said yourself, there are loads and loads of Hammerdin guides floating around on the interweb. Being Dii's forums though, I'll only share the ones within this community.

First and foremost, you should read the original guide. Some of it may be outdated, but it's the one that started it all, and for that alone it deserves credit. When you've done that, there are multiple options. You can leave it at the guide and go your own way. Or you can read the MF with a Hammerdin thread. Finally you can read the very recent guide that tries to combine the two in an updated fashion, here. It'll take 30 minutes, but when you're done I'd say you got a pretty solid view on what you're about to do...

Also, I've no experience with solo play, but I imagine that high end runewords are close to impossible to get, which means no Heart of the Oak, no Enigma, and no Call to Arms. To replace these slots I'd advise you go for Wizardspike, Guardian Angel and maybe a charged Teleportation staff in switch.

Don't know what went wrong with the linking, but it should work now. And good luck with your Hamagicdin!
