I keep Griswold's Honor (with 3 perfect diamonds for +108 to all resists) and a bone knife with life tap charges on switch. Their single target damage is very high, and they can quickly take care of bigger mob packs without survivability being an issue. Zealers are popular builds for PVM as few of the melee builds are as effective in D2R as them. My other gear is a follows: Sigons gloves/helmet (for AR), string of ears, two rare rings (resists, AR and life steal), rare amulet (+1 to skills, dexterity and mana steal), upped Hakwmail (for cannot be frozen), Tearhaunch, and a decent Herald of Zakarum. The Zealer is a Paladin build is using Zeal as it’s primary attacking skill. I currently have no crushing blow because I don't really want to use Rattlecage due to the hit causes monster to flee mod. Which of these would be a more effective option?

Oath in a cryptic sword (have a 4 socket normal one, but would definitely prefer to wait for an ethereal one, I'd need the runeword mod first).Ĭrescent Moon+Duress (I'd really want Gore Riders for this, but I haven't found any yet.) I've got two um runes, so I'm considering the following options: A few Runewords come close to Grief in a Phaseblade or Berserker Axe such as an Ethereal Breath of the Dying two-handed weapon, but Grief is.

I am currently using an upped Guardian Naga (178% ed, 20 to max damage, 250 poison damage) and getting ~1200-2800 zeal damage (without a merc) but I'd like to increase this to be able to solo in players 8. It's the best melee weapon Runeword in Diablo 2. Hey everybody, I'm looking for some advice with what runewords to use for my Single Player Zealot.
