Poll: are you able to beat Colossal Ancients?

Just wanted a show of hands to see how many of us have a build that is up and running, and is capable of killing the Uber / Colossal Ancients and if so, on what P1-8. I know as players we tend to have different builds for different purposes like farming, but in terms of pure Uber Ancients killing power, what has your build been able to do against them?

Please pick the highest P rating where any of your builds has killed the Ubers. Pick P1 if single player by yourself, P2-8 in groups with other players in the game, but only count this if you defeated them by yourself, mostly by yourself, or could have defeated them by yourself, or very probably would have been able to defeat them by yourself. ie don’t count occasions where you were just there as corpse retriever or waiting for the others to Smoke the Ubers for you.

There is a separate earlier Poll for the Tristram Ubers. Do vote on that too!

My Impale ama can do it (slowly)

Easy with the right demon on warlock

On a side note, forum member Zloty12 currently has a game up requesting help on Uber Ancients. If anyone is free to help, do contact him/her - see their post.

Lol. The best survivalist HC characters are those who know which fights to avoid… I think well played.

I feel you, fellow scaredy-cat.

Same response as the Tristram topic really.

Was scared in the beginning and tried it AFTER they got reworked to be harder with my Uber-Smiter.
Had I known how easy they still are with a well geared Smiter I would have tried way earlier... stupid me...

I can kill them with a slandered Smiter + Grief Tried DreamPally and necro and they got folded.
Tried different gear combos but it seems like High %life on hit and high Crushing blow% with IAS brake point.
If you cant hit with Zeal switch to Smite these guys have super high Def even if your build calls for Zeal
Tried Beast and it dosent seem to be able to keep up with the loss of life, or atleast my set up while using Zeal, idk if i tried to Smite with it atm but it just wasent able to sustain
I ended up changing my Crown of Ages out for Guillaume's Face+ Laying of Hands+Duress and just stacked as much IAS+Cushing blow and %life on hit as i could.
P-1
Solo

Tried it a couple of Times with my WW Wolf-Barb, but I have yet to defeat them with that char, gonna make him lvl past 94 first maby & get some more HP & Shout lvls.
also working on a Frenzy Barb that have epic Grief Phase Blade + Last Wish combo that might be the easier route but Wolf Barb must have Revenge for all his Death's and wasted statues.
