Monster Life

[foul_krahe]

How much is the average life of monsters in norm/nm/hell? I am asking because i am making a fire mf sorc, but i need an alternative spell for monsters with fire resist. would a 400 damage orb be enough to get the fire resists in hell? Or should i use lightning?

400 damage orb would do fine as an alternative, and the monster life varies monster to monster.

www.battle.net/diablo2exp <- Look at the index, go to monsters, and you should be able to find your way from there

I've been thinking about pure fire, and just do meph runs and whatever else you can do with solo fire.

Well, Mine was pure fire, but I had few left over skills so I had chance to put points in FO, but not alot..

but let me tell you some pros and cons about both cold (blizzard) and fire:

COLD
pros:
- kills meph in like 3 seconds
- dont need uber gears to be strong
- enemy is SLOWED without your merc

cons:
- gets annoyed by immunes like blood lord
- hard to aim sometimes

FIRE
pros:
- High dmg, lovely fireball =)
- fast.

cons:
- Cant kill meph as fast as blizzard sorc
- costs way too much mana when you spam meteor and fire ball
- Cant kill immunes like moon lord, most annoying units in baal run next to souls.


So yea, I hate fire sorc, if you are going to start new I'd say blizzard sorc.. but its up to you.

I made an orb/firewall sorc, and i can solo hell! The +20 skills might be why.. lol.. problem solved.
