I found a neat site that lets you fiddle with builds. I statted this out, do you think it would be enough? (I have most of this, but still need to buy the
Flail
and the gloves)

That would end poorly. A few key issues you need to correct:
  • Your attack rating is too low, you won't leech enough life if you miss too often. Getting more dex for 75% block will increase your AR a bit. You should end up with at least 10k AR, preferably 15k. The higher level you are, the less AR you need. AR charms are inexpensive and effective (a single 120 AR charm end up adding ~1k AR after
    Dragon Talon
    's multiplier).
  • Über Mephisto
    has a lvl20
    Conviction
    aura, that's -125 all res. You need 200 uncapped lightning res, other res aren't as important. Simplest way to get there is to stack a bunch of lightning res charms.
Once these issues are resolved you are good to go (as long as you don't pull the 3 at the same time).

FWIW, if the torch is more important to you ("you" no one in particular, just people reading this) than proving you can beat ubers with your favorite build, it's frankly easiest to just roll a smiter. I have beaten them with my weapon accidentally set to my swap (
Life Tap
Wand
). Smiter is the ultimate budget uber build. The only absolute requirement is a
Life Tap
Wand
, max
Smite
, max
Holy Shield
, and a fair amount of patience.

All prices negotiable. BIN always wins. Americas (Pacific), but int'l trade times can be arranged.

Hello all,

I recently took 3x3 keys and killed all those minibosses but am worried my summoner won't have the damage for the Ubers themselves. What is a budget build that could take ubers down? I want to be able to get my own torches :-)
Cheapest and Best Option is a Smiter Pala.

Simply because
Smite
always hits.

Just get a Resource for
Life Tap
.
LT
Wand
or Draculs are fine for that.

Grab a Black Runeword for Crushing blow.

Raven Frost
Ring for Cannot be Frozen.

Rest of the Gear is Just Massive Life and Resist stacking.
Light and Fire especially.

Cast or Procc Lifetap and that's it.

Use Fanatisicm Aura and GG

Farmed all my Torches without Problems with that setup.

Stay a while and listen

And don't forget Open Wounds!

OK let's correct my Post and add Gorerider
Boots
:)

I was assuming i would have to fill it out with some other charms, i just populated a few i good ones i knew i had. I also happen to have a mosers (I habitually horde anything i think looks decent) i retooled the skill a bit as well.

OP
So looking at
Stormlash
, it is pretty expensive and there aren't very many on the market right now. so i am thinking of shifting gears to a Black in a three socket
Scourge
. I noticed this on the database page. How can i cube it to lower its Ilevel to 1 so i can gurantee 3 sockets at
Larzuk
?

All Prices Negotiable :-)

You can get a 3 socket
Flail
to acti II normal
Fara
vendor. just use wp to leave town and come back until she sells one.

Looks good! Once the last lightning res charms are added (can also socket
Ort
/
Um
in
Guillaume's Face
if you have a
Larzuk
quest available) you can fill your inventory with the life and attack rating charms you have.
Your setup is better than the one I had first time I did ubers on my assassin.

For Black you can use a
Flail
, weapon damage doesn't matter and the base speed is the same.

OP
Final update if anyone is interested. I am rounding the mid 70s and have all my gear and charms in place. Here is the most updated build. Thanks everyone for your advice :-)

Also might want to pickup a cheap CTA

Congrats :)

Did a smiter similar to advice above, made it through everything but
Baal
. He seems impossible because the number of adds from his summons make it hard to target
Baal
, and the mana drain means I am constantly unable to
Smite
. Any advice on these? I've died 3 or 4 times fighting
Baal
don't want to have to give up.

Also add he seems to heal up, maybe he is casting life drain?

Use mana pots for
Baal
. Full rejuvs aren't effective since you'll instantly lose all mana again, but mana pots will be regenerating over time to keep you going. Another option is to have an item that grants damage taken as mana (
Ith
in
Helm
, for example).

Finally won on
Baal
, probably 4th or 5th try. I used my sorceress to clear some of the adds. It didn't seem like he resummoned them all after this. Whew! what a fight!
First Ubers

I also did like you said and took half mana half health in my
Belt
instead of 3 health and 1 mana rows. That helped too
