Hmmm where do I start....
Ok first your first post...
The arreat summit
and Diabloii.Net
i have found that these 2 sites are the best for all around info
The best chars for PvM and PvP are any char.
PvM- Speciffically Hammerdins, SceleNecs, Dual Ele sorces, wind Druid, Traps Assassin, most barbs still rock with the right gear, zons all around went down in power but you can still do ok with them.
Pvp- This is all about who you want to kill. Very speciffic to gear and needs. Any char can be good.
Now for some later q's
For sorces-
Most dual elements work. You dont' want to go three because you will lose too many synergies and she will be too weak. Here is what i suggest.
Frozen Orb/ Fire Ball / meteor
20 frozen orb 20 fireball 20 meteor 1 in each mastery
this is a good build for just about the whole game. there are only a few monsters that spawn with ci fi together.
Barbs are a whole different story. If you dont' have the best gear your barb won't be very effective in hell.
WW barb is still pretty good. You need super ias though. that is the most important thing. a weapon that reaches the last break point is critical. other wise you wont' hit anything past the first 2 hits. no matter what your ar is.
If you dont' want to do the WW barb i suggest making a frenzy barb. Make sure to read faqs about frenzy though BEFORE you start to make him. To make sure you have or are intending to use the right gear and skills.
Barbs in my mind are the hardest char to handle hell. All because they are so equipment based. Well any melee char is i guess.
If you need any info on what char to make you should just pick one that you would like to make and then try it. If you dont' think you can figure it out then do some research on the build to see what you can improve on. If you dont' have the time to spare messing up a char and then finding out in hell that it sucks, then read up on the build before you start.
hope that answers your q's
