First and foremost, a question: on a scale of 0-10 , with 0 being "not awesome", and 10 being Ian "Lemmy" Kilmister, how do you feel about scoring a 9.99 (Uncle Lemmy is alone up there) ?
Would you mind terribly if I (we) knocked on your door on the event we suffer a horrible Death in the depths of Hell?
Of course I wouldn't mind
I have a lot of respect for wanting to make do on one's own, but I'd be happy to help when/if the time comes

Nah, friend, you really do deserve praise, and public praise, imo.
Each and every one of the persons (just like you) that offer help, out of "gamer camaraderie", in a 25 year old game, deserve praise.
So there's no need to be stingy about praise when praise is due.
Thank you for your contribution to the community (as far as I can understand it, browsing this forum).
Just to be clear: I (we) am (are) not dead set on doing this "alone" (this was a PoE fixation of mine, but not this time). However, it seems/feels "wrong" to capitalize on gaining "free" items on a thread I initiated for advice on char build, and at a point in the game where I feel that I (we) can attain the power needed to make progress on my (our) own.
I feel that, one should ask for help whenever one needs help.
For now, I believe that the communal knowledge and insights is all the help I (we) need.
And, on that note, thank you all for contributing.

What you're saying makes perfect sense

Can I drop elite bases in Terror zones in nightmare difficulty, or are they hard-locked behind hell difficulty?
Ah, greetings, traveler! In the world of Sanctuary, elite bases are indeed typically found in Hell difficulty. In Nightmare difficulty, you can find exceptional bases and some mid-level items, but the most powerful elite bases are generally hard-locked behind the treacherous challenges of Hell difficulty.
However, with the introduction of Terror Zones, the level of monsters can increase beyond their usual limits, depending on your character's level. In some specific areas, with the right conditions and player level, it may be possible to encounter higher-level monsters that have a chance to drop elite bases even in Nightmare difficulty. This requires the area levels in the Terror Zone to be particularly high, which is more reliably achievable in Hell.
To seek out these rare treasures, I would recommend venturing into the depths of Hell where elite bases most commonly reside. Stay a while and listen, for knowledge is the greatest tool in your arsenal!

Yes, but not all bases - it depends on the Qlvl of the base. There are some elite bases that can drop in nightmare even without TZ, generally the lowest of each item type, but there are lots that can't drop in nightmare even with TZ. You can check the database here for elite items and sort by Quality level. Just to give you a basic understanding - Worldstone Keep is area level 65-66 in nightmare (without TZ), and Boneweave (elite Chain Mail) has a Qlvl of 62 and can drop there. TZ makes it easier to find elite bases in nightmare, of course, since it raises the area levels (to a maximum of 71 on nightmare).
If you're looking for a specific base I'd recommend a drop calculator, such as Nishi's - https://nishicode.com/#/dropfinder.
There are other drop calculators around, but as far as I know, Nishi's is the only one that actually properly handles TZ treasure class upgrading.

Thank you very much for explaining things. I appreciate it a lot.
...but pretty much only from unique monsters and bosses. Whereas in hell, even normal monsters can drop Ber (in some areas in act 1 hell, but in all areas in act 2 forward). So the odds of finding one in a nightmare TZ are... not in your favor
