Fellow Vet. Necros: I ask for help 
Hello!
I am BoneHonnor, and I have been using this site as my main course of info for a long time. (well for me at least) In Nov. of 2007, I got D2 and played open only. I 6 weeks ago decided that it was time to enter the big scary world of closed and, to my suprize, was amazed at how much better it is!!!! But to get to the point.
I am a Commando necro, at lvl 75, almost 76. I am having troubles in hell because of my resist, and that i can not do any damage like i need to. :/ I find that I am becoming more and more a fishmancer then a commando cause I have to run away! In hell, Count runs are so hard. Every time i finally kill a unique, they explode and i die! >_< Ones that let out lightning really rip me apart.
I just started getting ok gear recently, but its not enough, because my resists are bad. -40 for most in hell last time I compared to my buddy's. For you convenience, I will give u my specks for your experienced brains to chow down on.
Necro: lvl 75
Strength: 199 (with boosts)
Dex: 238 (with boosts)
Vit: 145 (with boosts)
Energy: 64 (with boosts, no investment too)
AR: 1386
Attack:168-306 (weap 2) weap 1: WAS 400-700. (dagger vanished. i might have it with mule and don't know. Idk really right now. :/ Could have poofed to since some nice guy gave it to me.)
Block: 75% (oh yes, high levels have hard time hitting me )
Chance of hitting: Says 95%, but when i go to hell or hit people, i miss more then i have them block it. So i would say 85% in pvp. :/
Resists:
Fire: 51% in hell
Cold: -10%-25% in hell (i am looking at my stuff in a norm game right now)
lightning: easily -35%-40% in hell
Posion: I think its -10% to +6% in hell.

As one can tell, my skill tree is very nice, and my skellies show it in hell and vrs barbs, where as a commando, i rip through them. (at least that was the case when I was 60) Like I said, its been late that my gear has been ok. Mostly because of kind folks.
----------------> So whats my problem then?
1) resists
2) I can not get anything better now to make my build good. :/ I am poor, even down to money. I can not hire my merc any more. And that hurts. Further more, I can not change my gear for more resist gear because I need this stuff for my skellies. I Guess I need help on figuring what I should prioritize since I am poor. :/
To find out more of my delema, here is my gear:
Helm: Doom Horn circlet: 20 deff, +2 to necro skills, 6 to min damage, 28 to life, 18 to max stam, magic damage reduced by 2
Armor: Que-Hagens Wisdom Made Plate. (Found it on Andy in nightmare!!!! So lucky! ) 1 to all skills, 20 to faster cast, and recover, 662 deff, 15 to energy, and magic damage reduced by 7.
Gloves: Some guy came in a room called kick ***, and said here, take these: Trangs gloves. WoW was I stoked. He also gave me trangs wing.
Shield 1: Trangs wing, shield 2: Gerkes sanctuary pavise, deff 242, 74% block, 23 to all resist, Lots of st requirement, replenish life by 15, reduce magic damage by 7, attacker takes damage of 7.
boots: Crap marrowwalk boots with 1 to master. 190 deff
belt: razortial. Very nice belt with high damage back. This one i found on the ground. Not from my kills of a monster, I imagine someone did the killing and left it there?
ring: This took some trading: Raven Frost and Bullkogs Wedding band. This sucked me dry. :/
ammy: +2 to summon with 10 to resist and 10 to mana, etc. Cheep one. Lucky find by me.
Wand: I traded a hole lot of stuff for backhand key. Had it since I was 50. I got a cut of it cause I was a friend of his i think.
Weapon: Gone. :/
Problem with gear: Bad resists, and my charms are mostly damage and recover charms. I did yesterday trade a +1 paly grand charm with 2-3 fire damage for a NECRO TORTCH!!! 14/14. Picked it over a ber that another guy offered for. Best deal I have ever made now. It helped a lot for me these last few days.

------------My goal:
Enigma: How can I get it? My Count Runs ARE CRAP! I never get anything good. 150 runs and best was dol. :/ oh and lum. Can anyone help teach me how to trade and get hrs?
Beast: Same thing with enigma. I need these so i can do damage and help my army. This guy will be for Mf, Monster Kill, AND PvP. I am having BIG troubles owning barbs now. And I have never been able to own sorc or assins because they run. :/

Fort or Bramble for merc
Dream for Merc or Me
Shanko for me or Merc
Infinity or insight with Merc.
*******Aegis or Ward shield so I can 4 socket it for Spirit so I can get some resists. This is what I need the most right now. :/ I have asked people for ever if they have it for trade. I am looking for one with high Block rate and Deff. :/
___________
My other problem: Not being able to Sell stuff for higher grade runes, etc!!!!
I have right now:
tals ammy, tals belt (both from baals rushing) Tried Charging for um like everyone else, but know one bites!
5 oc Sup flail. I sell this for ko, but know one Bites! People tell me I should sell for lem, but I can not even do that!
------------I try so hard to go by market standards, but people think they should get it for free. I need help on finding quicker solutions on how to trade at a FAIR rate, and how not to get scamed. (had that a few times too. )
**************Conclusion:
In retrospect, I have learned one thing about closed: there is a lot of bs'ers, a lot of mean people, and a few nice ones. Also, a lot of mis informed info floating about on there. (3 90's people told me u could repair eth, well, its to late now. ) I really need help in advice with closed battle.net. I looked on here, but there is only so much you can know on what to search for, the rest, you have to ask what to look for, you know what I mean? I don't want to ASK people for gear really, all though I would not mind if you did, but Help in any regards would be much obliged! I hope this was easy to read, and my bad for spelling!!!
