I noticed, mainly because me, and Dark were the only ones who could last hits to GET to the ubers... That two smiters are NEEDED.
As soon as one smiter locked on to the uber target, they were pretty much invincible. The other smiter can then be used to clear away creeps.
However; It should be noted that I found that I ran out of mana quite quickly. Especially with the ghost waves. Should we worry about having a meditation merc on hand?
There are monsters immune to everything but physical. Thus, the other smiter. However; there are monsters immune to physical. I'd propose either a healthy hdin, a good elemental sorc, or a crazy lightning zon.
Also noted. We need a barbarian with HEALTHY war cries. Next time we do ubers, I think it in the best interest of me trying it with my tank barb. If I get life tap cast on shit from hanging near the smiter, I should be invincible. But yet again. Phys immunes come up.
First in? Who's got the most defense and health? Secondly, we need a smiter with life tap ASAP. Get life tap on, helps the world.
Feel free to add to these observations, or disagree with them.

My smiter has got a life tap wand (well two one is one mule). And are we talking about uber leveling or just going for the torches. I watched my clan do an uber level, it was friggin' awesome! I'm not sure how they did it but they like trapped mephisto in the middle and got some hammerdins (2 or 3) to stand where the minions of Mephisto stood and they just obliterated them. This is how i THINK they did it (sorry if i'm not connecting my ideas and shit) they trapped meph in the middle and got some hammerdins to stand where the minions WOULD be spawned. Then they got another guy to move near close to the middle so meph would summon his minions to kill and meanwhile they were being summoned around the hammerdins and gg. (Before this they killed Diablo and Baal but I wasn't in the portal so I'm not sure how they did that part).

Well, it seems to me, that until we get the ability to actually survive the ubers, and the items, uber levelling may be out of the question. Best way to get the items we need, is get the torches, and sell them for gg prices. And incase you didn't notice, I'd say my H-din is one of the best on b.net (Humble, yes?) But He got annihilated at Lillith. We still need a tank / stunner to keep minions dazed while they get crushed... maybe a shockwave bear?

Haha, one of the best on b.net TYR YOU MAKE ME LAUGH! Good point with the whole we can't uber lvl and items are out of the question but yeah and tanks...I think it's just more we need DECOYS. While you noobs ( ) were getting pwned at Lilith i was having a lil kit kat and pwning her ass but only after i had time to cast my life tap (because tyrians_pride) was decoying.

Lmao 3k life 15k Hammer damage. C'mon!
But you're right. We need someone to distract and deter until the smiter locks on. Once I was able to get to those damn archers with my smiters, the room was clearable. It's a matter of how we look at it. A strong Decoy = Tank, correct?

That's nothing! You were only able to get those archers 'cause i was busy killing Lilith and yeah yeah tank = strong decoy vice versa

Exactly my point! Once one smiter locks onto the uber, the other is free to clear the room. Thus , we need two smiters, or lifetap capable characters. Barb with Dracs? I have a frenziest with a last wish on board?

We only need two or three people to uber. One or two smiters to do gg ownage and a tank or just one smiter and one tank. I can probably solo Uber Izual, Duriel, and Lilith but I know I can't do Uber Trist unless someone does something about the creeps.
I also thought up a strategy for Ubering, I realized that Mephisto is the hardest of the Ubers because of his damn Conviction aura. It owns me. Diablo is about the second hardest because of his retarded attacks being that Uber Flame attack and the Bone Prison so you can't attack and you die. The Uber that took the least effort for Tyr and I was Baal, he went down in a couple seconds. So that's my method, either kill Meph, Diablo, then Baal, or Baal, Diablo, then Meph.

If you aren't going to be a decoy we don't need you, the only people that will be able to do damage are the smiters because of their crushing blow and stun. Poison damage won't do much.

I actually agree with that sentiment. And of course baal was the least problem for you. Why? I killed meph and Diablo myself pretty much. =P
We need either intense damage, or intense damage absorption.
Either kill shit or take hits while we kill shit.
