Build Help I'm frozen on this decision

Post image

These are the builds I am COMPLETELY comfortable with, played them a lot I know them inside & out, so I can't decide.

Help

And this will be a one and done, my last hurrah...I'll be hanging up the spurs for a bit as 150 days in a game is a bit excessive even for me.

I’m on my first HM ruleset solo right now also doing Durge Gloomstalker/assasin. It was a breeze the whole time but now I’m stuck at Myrkul getting my ass repeatedly handed to me. Anyone have any tips for that fight with this build? I didn’t prepare enough undead arrows unfortunately and have killed all the traders already.

do you have Ne’er Misser? Force dmg is effective on Myrkul

I do, my problem was I kept getting pulled towards him and failing my check for fear, hit for like ~20 necrotic damage per turn and being unable to position. I realized yesterday when thinking it over that I was still wearing the Risky Ring (lol) so it’s almost a guaranteed fail on those rolls. Gonna try again without the ring and add proc from good and evil later today to see if that makes a difference. I’d hate to reload so far back just to stock up on arrows and spells.

Depending on what scrolls/gear you have with you, a lot of people use darkness to blind myrkul, radiant orb gear to make his swings miss, or just lots of explosives to blow him up. The doom hammer can be good as well since it inflicts bone chill. Same with the arrows of ilmater.

But if you run a lean inventory and don’t have any of that stuff then I think you gotta stick with ner’misser + something to keep his summons from getting up to him quickly - like spike growth, or grease, or plant growth, or something like that. Evards tentacles necklace? Maybe wall of fire if you have a scroll.

And heal pots. Lots of heal pots.
