Can't take it no more... back to melee for me.
Well, I gave him a try.
I played a Hammerdin all the way (no rushing) to Frigid Highlands in Hell, but I'm afraid I'm gonna have to axe this guy.
Why? The playstyle isn't what I like. I've realized I just don't like Hammers. I got more than enough time with them to figure out the ins an outs with them (and their power is impressive), but... meh.
I want to smash things over the head with my Trusty Weapon. I want to bash them with my shield. I had the most fun with this guy while I was back in normal running around with Shadowfang or Soulflay and Charging stuff.
So, he shall be reborn... as a Fanatic Zealot, like I originally wanted to do. He's got 3 unused socket quests, so I'll have to figure out what to use them on. His imbues - I dunno. I wish I had 3 white Diadems on hand, but I don't.
His deeds shall be remembered... in Hell Chaos Sanct, he found me a Mang Song's Lesson (super rare but kinda useless), and a Wolfhowl.
His (and his glitch mule companions') NM Hellforges: Lem, Ko

At least I got those runes I blew on Wealth back - giving that to my Barb once I straighten his problems out.
My objective (so I thought) was to have a good area MF toon who could Uber, but I'd already tentatively spec'd the Barb as the area MFer (and that can go forward now) so Mr. Pally will be all about beating stuff up. I at least have a viable Hell weapon for him now (Baranar's) and he'll survive with Drac's, but I still need to source a good Ubering weapon for him... that'll come.
Live and learn, I guess.
