The obvious advantage with Baal is that you get plenty of experience while you're doing it. And every level you get means killing goes faster.
What level are you now?
My zon's lvl is 67, and i have that ward shield, it gives 35% resist all, and i die REALLY fast with any type of magic, i have other items that boost the resistance but the max i get is like 30 resistance in something, 10 on the other and like -10 on the other two types of element.
What is a max block? 200 points in dex?
I was fighting a very strong "abomination" type of monster ( the same skin as the frozenstein ) in the stony field today, he fucking freaking my in 3 hits that passed without blocking... i just imagined a extra strong death lord mini-boss in hell, what damage he might do...

Well I can understand you here. I'm currently taking up an amazon through the game myself off teh realms. Beat NM Baal yesterday, she's lvl 65 bowazon, with skill points in Guided Arrow, Strafe and Valkyrie. And let me tell you, that Valkyrie does help out, because I don't get the enemies up close.
If you haven't spent any points on Valkyrie yet though, it may be a bit late to start. I could also recommend you get a mercenary from Act 2. Currently I'm running around with an Offensive (with Might Aura), and while he isn't nearly as durable as my Valkyrie, he does survive fairly well so long as Amplify damage or strong Uniques don't come along

Other than a SoJ, the only other unique rings she can drop are Nagelring and Manald Heal. This means that if she drops a unique ring, you have a 1/31 chance for it to be a SoJ.
Ha!
In actuality, the chance of a unique ring being a SoJ that Andariel drops is around 3,2%. Manald Heal and Nagelring have rarity values of 15 (meaning they're more common), and SoJ has a rarity value of 1. This means, when a Unique ring is to drop, the chance of getting a SoJ is 1/31=3,2%.
So good luck on that ring

Kefka, your avatar's nice, its from ff6, it's not kefka though, what boss if this?
PlugY for Diablo II allows you to reset skills and stats, transfer items between characters in singleplayer, obtain all ladder runewords and do all Uberquests while offline. It is the only way to do all of the above. Please use it.
Supporting big shoulderpads and flashy armor since 2004.
It simulates the amount of people in the game without actually having the people in the game. It affects drops experience gain and monster difficulty. I always play single player on /players8.
Good luck finding your SoJ.

Its one of the 3 statues from the floating continent you fight in his tower...doom i think its called...been a long long time since I played that game lol
my amazon sucks at hell, it's hard to beleave, you get out of NM full of potential to get owned on the 2 map of act one lol, frustrating...
Ill have to learn a way to kill the imune lightning ones, because only getting resistance increase itens will fuck my def, and then ill get a extra strong miniboss and rape me, and if i dont get a 50% resitance all, im fucked when i get a lightning enchanted here, cause those lightnings rape my merc and me all togheter.

ok, what about baals minions? what if one wave comes with lightning immune?
And for example, what if theres a huge group of lightning immune in the room where you get to andariel?
Sometimes it's not just about to run, i just need a way to kill em, even if it takes long, do you have a tip? or should i stay with the kuko bow?
You should have jab? That should work.....just made sure ur shield and passive skills are decent enough to tank for a bit. If that dont work you can always save and exit until there are no immunes in a boss room(cept for baals minions obviously). To deal with baals minions if they have a light immune you can glitch the game by having them all run out of the main room with baal in it and then he just goes ino the portal and you can follow
Ill try that, i made my amazon pure CS, so i didnt waste nothing on passive and magic, only 2 points, one in each skill in the right side of the skill tree, letting the last one alone because it's useless for a CS zon.
but then, following someones tip here, i wasted like 4 points to get immolation arrow since i had the kuko bow, whatever, ill check what i can do, time to get bad ass itens
BTW**********
If i set players max 8, when soloing boss, does the item rate rise? and consequently better items?

Yes the amount of items that drop are affected by that setting....all monsters and drop rates increase just the same as being in a game on bnet with 8 people....it in no way guarntees better drops tho just more...which i guess does give you a better chance to find better items....you get what im saying?....oh and do you have skills into the dodge avoid and evade ones in passive? 2 or 3 into each is like huge for tanking in hell and almost necessary
Oh and also you dont need crit ctrike or the increased attack rating passives either they are useless for CS since CS lightning damage does not increase with a crit and does not require AR
Yes i agree about the two skills, but at normal game i needed in some point, now i cant take it out. and now i didnt put on evade, i didnt put on that part of the tree because wasent interested on the valkyrie, but yes i know about the quality of 3-5 points in each =/, is there a way to reset stats and skill points?

zonfires hero editor.....its cheating i suppose but who cares...just put the skills u didnt want to zero and give yourself that many extra skill points
Reseting stats or skills isn't a big cheating... I mean, yes it is, but you are in Single Player there. As long as you don't give yourself any more points, its fine.
You have to do it manually, however. If you really want these features in game, you can just get PlugY. Resetting stats in an editor takes just that bit more time for vitality and energy (just have to know how much a point give and remove that from your health/energy/stamina).
For skills its easy and fast, however.
I don't consider that cheating, because with games like this, it SHOULD be possible. Heck, I blame it on the fact that this game is old. If you want it more fair, make it cost something.
Im totally fine with that, because i wasted 5 points that were acumulated on something someone said here about the kuko and immolation arrow, so ill get those 5 and pit on the skills in the middle of the tree of magic and passive skills, i dont play this game for work, im playing for fun so there's not cheating at all in this! thanks for the info.

Ive been told by many ppl that if you kill nm meph enough he has the best chance to drop HoZ....that does not make it true
Even if a boss like nm or norm andy has the best chance to drop a soj dont mean shit cuz the chance is still to remote
My zon's lvl is 67, and i have that ward shield, it gives 35% resist all, and i die REALLY fast with any type of magic, i have other items that boost the resistance but the max i get is like 30 resistance in something, 10 on the other and like -10 on the other two types of element.

So, what do you think has a bigger chance of dropping an IK helm, NM Ball or Norm Rakanishu?
It's the decisions you make when you have no time to make them that define who you are.
obviously nm baal, seeing as how norm raka cant drop it lol
If you haven't spent any points on Valkyrie yet though, it may be a bit late to start. I could also recommend you get a mercenary from Act 2. Currently I'm running around with an Offensive (with Might Aura), and while he isn't nearly as durable as my Valkyrie, he does survive fairly well so long as Amplify damage or strong Uniques don't come along

Please try to keep this discussion on-topic.

Ouch, that was an embarrasing mistake on my part. But I assure you, I can in fact read. Normally...
run past the immunes
