Best budget smiter video out there. Has about every option, plus what to upgrade to in stages from the budget gear. If you're new to the game and trying to kill Ubers and also improve your kill times, this video is the one to watch. Happy hunting and may RNJesus be with you.
Incredibly thorough. I can tell a lot of effort went into this. I'll be sharing with people I know. Seen a few videos like this about budget smiters but none as thorough or concise.
Best video I've seen so far. From starter to upgrade possibilities. Thanks man. Opens up a very big window. Started playing d2r 1month ago, got my sorc running, now 2gear that pally.👍👍
Been playing D2 since year 2000 regularly now D2R & I truly respect seeing builds like these showcase the TRUE POWER of player/character vs.a player with Last Wish doesnt impress me really & whatever he says irrelevant/. LOL
thx m8, just got my first torch from UT, ever! Singleplayer what also helped me alot, was to set players8 and to practice regular Izual over and over again. always surrounded by mobs
Definitely subbed bro this is the video ive been searching for ive never done ubers before and im in single player so this video really gave me some hope lol
it might be long but it's all on topic info heck i even wanna see part 2 and 3 where ur budget increases a bit to the bis whit his info only flaw i could tel was somewhere in the begining when he talked about ar being a good stat and i was like wat smite don't need ar but then 15 sec's later he was like yeah its great if u still use zeal so basicly the only flaw there was he did not mention pure smite always hit you don't need any ar but thats stated in the skill so to his credits if u didn't knew that thats on you, tl,dr: great video and if u nittpickin only 1 minor flaw/detail but 99.9% solid info
You have forgotten the most OP amulet for UT: the rising sun. In UT, there is fire damage prevailing, and with the Rising Sun, especially in combination with the Dwarf Star, you are going to be almost immortal. The hardest part is actually retrieving the organs, especially from Izual and Lilith. Maybe, Shaftstop and precast from treachery would come in handy. Thx for the idea with darksight, I always tried to obtain Kira for resistances and completely forgot about this helmet xD
solid showcase. I also suggest use Cresent Moon for static /Open Wound on swap (shael Um Tir) in fast weapon. Depening on seasonal start whatever drops come first ofc... but thats probably my favourite weapon to after use it on Merc for static so yeah... Cresent Moon Phase Blade is dope too
Just commenting again to say this is my favorite Uber video now. I’ve watched this probably 6 times. I built my own Smiter that used on dclone a few times now. Loving it
@@paulfutz1511 completely agree with the above and such a great and comprehensive video. Excited to be making my first Smiter based on this and hopefully do my first Uber run too. Thanks again Paul. Are you still doing content? Would love to see your thought on other builds in the case they are being uploaded to other platforms. Keep up the amazing work!
@@idlehandshobby I haven't released any other build content although I've thought about it. I was working on a jav zone guide for a month when sunder charms released and changed the meta and made my data irrelevant haha. Appreciate the kind words. I may start working on another guide but haven't decided what class or build would have the most benefits for people. I've considered making a deep dive into mosaic sin but haven't committed to a new project yet.
@@FilthyGutturals Correct, he dies fast anyways as his physical resists are low, you really just need a bit of crushing blow and open wound to block health recovery, and you should be good to tank him easily. You'll still need decent res on other elements but the one shot kill from meph comes from lightning bolt, which will tickle you with a lv 20 res lightning aura
@@paulfutz1511 oh never really noticed the massive IAS on treachery. Got my first torch with only 55 IAS. Looks like I need to look into finding another source of CBF and getting a source of open wounds.
You can absolutely use spirit but It depends on the rest of your gear, spirit shield is great especially with the 55fhr. But if using spirit over 4X pdiamond means that your missing lightning resistance against mephisto you're going to die much faster.
I’ve only got a +2 Heavens Light with 1 socket. Should I use that with a shael or use Black? Amazing video. I’m gonna level up a smite paladin soon. I play solo offline. Cheers man
i kinda always hated these fights, lets make phys one of the most underused builds in the game, then lets give all the monsters inside this place full immunities to everything but phys.. lol for such a great game the devs sure did do some stupid ass shit sometimes..
Isn't that the irony tho, many of these areas are swarming with Phys Immune mobs, and despite that the number one most used Torch runner is a Physical melee build =p
The fights were designed to be group fights so in order to reasonably account for dps/utility of a full party they had to design them like this. The facts players found ways to run them solo was not really on the devs. Was a different time back then man. If yah broke the game and found an exploit it just stayed that way.
Not too much going on for charms just mediocre ones picked up along a natural leveling progression. I did testing and completion outside of what's in the video with no charms
Yes smiter is still meta I'd like to see anyone solo ubers as well and efficiently as a smiter. Diablo 2 hasn't come out with updates to drastically change things enough to make any class less effective than it was 20 years ago

Thanks bro
Ya it took a while to get everything organized and I ended up refilming/ doing it like 3 times haha
@@paulfutz1511 Do you have discord maybe? Would love to pick your brain on a few things.
@@harper2181 ya whats your discord
This is the most in depth video ive seen for anything D2 and wow I mean I can actually do Ubers I think.
thanks man means a lot! how did your uber run go?
Best video I've seen so far. From starter to upgrade possibilities. Thanks man. Opens up a very big window. Started playing d2r 1month ago, got my sorc running, now 2gear that pally.👍👍
Happy to hear it :) I hope your pally build worked out well!
Darksight is OP for early game and I agree it’s highly underrated. Great tutorial and very detailed.
Been playing D2 since year 2000 regularly now D2R & I truly respect seeing builds like these showcase the TRUE POWER of player/character vs.a player with Last Wish doesnt impress me really & whatever he says irrelevant/. LOL
You should do more build videos, you go pretty in depth my guy.
Thanks man
The most in depth Uber Smiter video I've seen

Great video, i like the way to show up all possibilities on gear, and what to prefer. Im sure this is a big help for new players.

This guide helped me get my first couple of torches. Great vid, thanks!
happy to hear it, this is exactly why I made it glad it helped my man!
this is the best video for uber tristram. I have never seen anybody fight against Mephisto and Lilith with gears which are these cheap.
Thanks man
The only one video on D2r available on this channel? It's really pity. I hoped for a couple more...
Thanks considering it!
solid showcase. I also suggest use Cresent Moon for static /Open Wound on swap (shael Um Tir) in fast weapon. Depening on seasonal start whatever drops come first ofc... but thats probably my favourite weapon to after use it on Merc for static so yeah... Cresent Moon Phase Blade is dope too
Best uber guide ive seen. Good job.
This best video I’ve seen on the subject. Would love to see someone do a Uber speed run with this kind of info

Hey the guide was super usefull I got my first torch and its socc so Im super happy ❤
It merrited my subscription. Happy with this guide
Best video on Ubers thanks
Finally! Best video for ubers! Thanks!
Best vídeo i've seen so far! Ty
Awesome video Paul! Thanks for sharing buddy
thanks bro
It was a very well made video good explaining thank you
We won't say this often enough, for uber mephisto (especially for hardcore) use 20pt lightning resist while fighting him.
What do you mean by 20pt?
@@FilthyGutturals 20 in light resist aura
@@Sangoreborn Ah okay, so instead of using fanaticism against him, you use lightning res?
@@FilthyGutturals Correct, he dies fast anyways as his physical resists are low, you really just need a bit of crushing blow and open wound to block health recovery, and you should be good to tank him easily.

Great video! Tons of info here
Thanks man I really appreciate you checking it out! Your stream and videos helped me figure out how to do Dclone in PD2 :)
can we use dracul's grasp for life stolen instead of life tap??? I think Paladin should not use a necromancer skill😄
very impressive !
Great vídeo, thx for sharing.
great vid!
Getting a pair of venomgrip for Lilith wouldn't be such a horrible idea.
Good guide
You should make more vids 🙂
great guide!
Another choice is Wizardspike if you already have lots of CB
Good video hope you do more D2R vidz
do meph at the south west side all the way at the bottom so you dont gota deal with minions by the red tp
Excellent video!!! But to me, this is absolutely insane and I'd have heart attacks non stop... So not doable for me lol.
Is a fleshrender unique mace better than a black flail ? I just dropped it on nightmare andariel
Thoughts on duriels shell as an armor option/source of cannot be frozen? Or is a rhyme shield + treachery just always going to be a better option?
Duriels shell is nice but unless you have another great source of ias treachery is king
@@paulfutz1511 oh never really noticed the massive IAS on treachery. Got my first torch with only 55 IAS. Looks like I need to look into finding another source of CBF and getting a source of open wounds.
is it worth to do spirit shield in like 40 all res shield or just put 4 pdiamonds in it
You can absolutely use spirit but It depends on the rest of your gear, spirit shield is great especially with the 55fhr. But if using spirit over 4X pdiamond means that your missing lightning resistance against mephisto you're going to die much faster.
Yes it is
Please make one on your end game javazon!!
Bro, come back we need an update!!
Lilith spawns to the right, always go counter clockwise.
I’ve only got a +2 Heavens Light with 1 socket. Should I use that with a shael or use Black? Amazing video. I’m gonna level up a smite paladin soon. I play solo offline. Cheers man
You need to 2x Shael it to reach breakpoint. I would use Black.
@@JGComments Thanks a lot man. I actually ended up finding a High Lords Wrath so that was cool. Appreciate it man

In my experience the Ubers are easy compared to clearing to and killing Lilith
As a strictly HC player, this video gives me anxiety. 😂
Haha fair enough this is generally designed around softcore.
Very nice bud. But that game music is too laud and too annoying tbh.
🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
You gonna make more guides for d2 ?
If i have Drac gloves do i still need the life tap wand to start?
Yeah this is required because they don't guarantee you proc it fast enough to not get killed. Wand is a must
No mention of the charms in the inventory?
Not too much going on for charms just mediocre ones picked up along a natural leveling progression. I did testing and completion outside of what's in the video with no charms
Cheapest is Strength
with how dog shit bnet is, id be terrified to open tristram and have game crash or LD
Hi so today we kill ubers with low gear... don't look at the inventory full of charm's you're surely not gonna have
Yes smiter is still meta I'd like to see anyone solo ubers as well and efficiently as a smiter. Diablo 2 hasn't come out with updates to drastically change things enough to make any class less effective than it was 20 years ago
What a silly question
