I have tried doing Necro any% HC (normal beat baal) runs. I use to stream it but I suck compared to the WR holders so I was embarrassed to continue.
my necro any% hc PB is 3:58 with no video proof. :\ wasn't streaming just practicing and I beat my previous time.
WR as of this post for
Necro any% HC is 2h 14m 20s
Which is held by the LEGEND

I learned everything from him about necro speed running.
He said it is certainly possible to get sub 2h with necro. But it's one of the hardest classes for a number of reasons.
