looking for some pvm advice

I was thinking of starting a new pvm character but dont know with what to go.

I was thinking:

Summoning druid
Summoning necro.
solo Werebear druid(with HOW)/werebear/summoning hybrid
Elementalist druid
Trapsin
Zealot

As you can see I lean towards a druid. I am looking for a build that can do well in Hell and is incredibely fun to play. Now I know thats something personal but I just wanna hear all your vets opinions. Please points out why too.

Thanks,

Myradin

Concerning the summoning Necro - the last two I've played were quite fun up until I actually beat Hell (around level 81 or so). After that, I found I had little desire to keep playing them. The problem was simply that I grew tired of simply standing around and watching my minions kill things while all I got to do was toss a few curses.

All the characters you listed would probably be fun to play - but it really depends on your long term goals. Do you simply want to beat hell, or are you looking to baal run with the character for additional levels?

If beating the game in Hell difficulty is all you care about, every character you listed is quite capable - although I think the summoning druid might be an interesting challenge, especially if you prefer solo (as opposed to party) play.

I've never personally played a Werebear (my speciality is the Werewolf) myself, but I've partied with many and they make great team-mates, particularly if the group is melee-heavy.

Beyond that, I can't offer much advice. If you prefer a relaxing, easier game go with the summoning necro, zealot, elementalist or trapsin. If you want a bit more of a challenge, try the others.

Above all, have fun!

The summoning necro is a fun build. I just finished hell with a skellimancer based on the Nightfish guide. Check out the strategy guide here on this site. It is fun. I am going to run hell cows with him just now! The problem is you have to be careful not to kill the cow king. You can't control the skellies or what they go after.

It also depends on your funds.My favourite char in the game is pure melee werebear which for me is incredibly fun but you need some pretty good gear to make it a machine(Tomb Reaver,Levi,etc)
In case you decide to make this build,PM me and I will write you a comprehensive guide(I played 4-5 pure bears so far)
