From what I know, only full gear Hammerdins and Javazons can clear hell with ease. Everything else will be a struggle if you don't have a full competent team.

Assuming the best gear, there are a few others. A Light Sorc with the best gear is more powerful than a Hammerdin in many situations, thanks to the Infinity RuneWord (combined with Griffon's). A Trap Assassin isn't far behind, again thanks to Infinity.

A top tier Wind Druid will have very few issues getting through Hell. They're not quite as effective at crowd control as the above builds, but still pretty powerful.

This is all in full games. In solo games (or "/players 1" in Single Player), a few others will not face too much trouble either, except perhaps with maneuverability (but then so does a Javazon if it lacks Enigma/Teleport).

A Summonmancer with Beast/Infinity/Pride (Iron Golem)/etc. will destroy a 1-player game, and probably higher player counts.

I'm a fan of Bowazons, and a well geared one (Windforce, Faith merc, Fortitude, Laying of Hands, etc.) will wreck Hell in a 1-player game.

I hear Orbsins are pretty good too. It's one of the few builds I haven't tried.
