Smith of Kitava dominates the Hardcore ladder, with four players in the top 10, including Maszkusik#3994 leading at level 69. Its defensive capabilities are crucial in this mode.  Deadeye also performs well, with Ben_#4007 matching the leader at level 69, but the presence of three dead characters (ranks 4, 7, and 8) highlights the unforgiving nature of Hardcore.  Lich sneaks into the top 10 at rank 10, suggesting potential for durable builds.And we say: Rest in peace - to the dead.
