im doing this build right now and its kick ass. already in hell mode (without nigma)

**nightedge** · 08-24-2005, 02:16 AM

i already know how to make a hammer pally and soj are gay get the other rings with the life leech...

**Doono** · 08-24-2005, 08:52 AM

life leech dosent work on hammers thats why sojs are a better choice since they give mana. No points using bul kathos rings unless your attacks melee or you need the life bonus. but if your too poor to afford soj's bk's are a cheaper choice.

**xShrimp** · 08-24-2005, 08:38 PM

soj's are used for major mana boosts and skill, while bk rings are used for life leech for physical dmg's such as barb zon or smiters. hmm im thinking of making a smiter build... still need to think what it needs...

**Doono** · 08-24-2005, 10:24 PM

life leech dosent affect smite

only life tap so an exile or draculs are good choices.

**Dooge** · 09-20-2005, 01:24 AM

this is a very nice build works awsome

**SWATubernoober** · 10-18-2005, 10:26 PM

Only problem is you must use Magefists so you rengerate mana....trangs are weak.

**nightedge** · 10-19-2005, 11:25 PM

Trangs are about good as magefist... trangs has good stats but i dont remember

**DarkShadow** · 10-20-2005, 12:41 AM

you dont have 110 levels...

**Cutthoat** · 10-21-2005, 11:12 PM

u get +skills from quests..

**M!L[K]MAN** · 11-18-2005, 11:12 PM

thats moronic. why would you waste stats in any of that? you should never put stats in anything besides vitality for a hammerdin. why the hell would you put into dex?? NOTHING the hammerdin wears requires more than base dex. and theres NO reason to put any in strenght either because you can just charm glitch till u get 55 str and can throw on an enigma. from there it will give u all the str u need for anything else. also you most definately want to use sandstorms or scarabshells. theres really no need for mara's, as u will have full res if you have a descent anni which are quite easy to find. use seraphs instead.

if you disagree with his build do not critisize it so crudely, give constructive critisism or make your own.

i think this is a fairly good build, but not the best. one of my old expired pallys (forgot build, otherwise i would post it) had about 13k-14k ish on average w/o any wc's or shit... but 10k is fairly good. above noob, below the best.

heh nice..

**Ghost-19** · 11-23-2005, 04:48 AM

Okay, well now 1337hacker. Seems you've violated the Signiture Size Rule. How about 1 point of warning for violating this rule:

14. Signatures may be no larger then 400 x 125 pixels and 100 kilobytes in size

Have a nice day! Failure to change your signiture will result in 5 points of warning.
