----------PC / DIABLO 2 + DIABLO 2: LORD OF DISTRUCTION
---------FAQ: LIST OF MONSTERS
---------Written by CHU Vegetta
Here, we are going to present a list of monsters that you will meet in Diablo2
and Diablo2 LoD world. You will face a lot of creatures so
it would be useful if you knew their resistances and weakness to defeat them
easily and painless. First we are going to see the creatures
of Diablo2 world and then the Diablo2 LoD. The list includes the name of the
creatures, their resistances and the difficulty scale to kill them
(0 for easy.....5 for hard. This is my personal opinion but i have tried to be
fair and objective.)

--------------------------------------------------------BOSSES------------------
--------------------------------------
ACT I: ANDARIEL. This monster has poison skills, so make sure that you have any
items that boost your poison resistance. It isn't so
tough, so you won't have any trouble to beat it.
ACT II: DURIEL. Duriel has cold and melee skills. Unfortunately, you will fight
him in his lair and that means it won't be easy to escape once the
battle starts, so make sure that you have opened a town portal before you
challenge him. Furthermore, if you have a mage or archer it won't be
easy at all to beat him because his lair is too small and you won't be able to
run
away or manouevre your hero if things start going wrong. In that
case you should use your mind to beat him. Use anything that may keep Duriel
away
from you. Weapons that can stun him, spells that can trap
him or summon minions to distract him. All these things would be very useful for
this fight.
ACT III: MEPHISTO. The little brother of Diablo. He has lighting skills so make
sure that you have high lighting resistances otherwise you will
be dead in a few moments. Mephisto has a lot of minions defending him, so it
would
be good if you kill those minions before you start
fighting him. Once you clear the area from these creatures, go for him. Grab a
heavy weapon such as long swords/ hammers/ crossbows etc
or cast high level spells to inflict massive damage to him, summon any creature
to
distract him , take a lot of health/ mana potions and prepare
for the battle. You might need a lot of time to beat him so be patient.
ACT IV: DIABLO. He is the final boss of Diablo2 world. He is really strong and
bad. If you want to survive you should do some simple things.
Make sure that you have max resistances, especially your fire resistance. Equip
with a good armor or anything that increase your defense.
Buy weapons that do a lot of damage, cast final level spells that can hurt him a
lot (note: fire spells are not very effective against Diablo. Use
lighting, cold, poison,bone spells etc to attack him) and spells that may
improve
your skills or worsen his skills. Also summon any creature that
can distract him. Last but not least take many health and mana potions. You also
have a great advantage. You will fight him in a large battlefield,
so if you are getting into trouble you can run away, recover and come back again
to battle against him.

--------------------------------------------------------BOSSES------------------
--------------------------------------
Before your battle against Baal you will face five waves of minions. Prepare to
fight them
1) WARPED SHAMANS. Leader: Colenzo the Annihilator. These creatures have fire
skills, so you will need fire resistance. The good thing is
that they are not very tough. You won't have any problem to defeat them. Also if
you have the ability to cast cold spell, do it. Cold spells are really
effective against them.
2) UNRAVELERS. Leader: Achmel the Cursed. These minions have poison skills and
resistances to poison attacks, so don't cast poison
spells, it is waste of time. Fortunately, they are pretty weak therefore you can
beat them quickly. Cast spells that may curse them or worsen their
skills, equip with a good weapon or use fire/lighting/cold/bone spells and go
for
them.
3) COUNCIL MEMBERS. Leader: Bartuc the Bloody. These minions is a big trouble
because their lighting skills are deadly. Make sure that
you have a good armor and your lighting resistance is maximum. It is not easy at
all to defeat them so if you can split and fight them one by one
it would be good. Summon any creatures to distact them, cast spells that may
lower
their resistances/ defense, take a lot of heath/ mana potions
and prepare for the fight.
4) VENOM LORDS. Leader: Ventar the Unholy. These creatures use melee and fire
attacks, so you should increase your defense and your fire
resistance. They have a lot of health points but it isn't too difficult to win
this battle. Equip with a good weapon, cast some cold/poison/ lighting
spells and spells that may lower their resistances, summon any creature to
attack
them and go for it.
5) MINIONS OF DESTRUCTION. Leader: Lister the Tormentor. The last and most
powerfull creatures before challenging Baal. These minions
are really tough. They use melee attacks that can stun and decrease you health
points in a few seconds. You can't defeat all of them at once. Try
to split and kill them one by one. This is difficult too, but you have to do it
otherwise you will be dead very soon. First of all you need a very good
armor and any item that may increase your health and your attack rating. Grab a
heavy weapon like hammer/ long sword, cast spells that
inflict massive damage and buy a lot of health/ mana potions.Cold spells also
are
useful because they slow them down. Summon creatures to
protect your character and distract them. You may need a lot of time to defeat
them all but you must not quit. Last but not least, their leader,
Lister the Tormentor, has the ability to regenerate his health points. That's
too
bad for you, but you can defeat him even though it is difficult. You
can kill him at the end after you have defeated all the other minions of this
group. If he is alone it is a little bit easier to kill him.
ACT V: BAAL. This is the last boss you should defeat and complete the game and
as
you have already twigged it, he is the toughest. Baal is
really bad. He can kill you with just one hit so be prepared to battle against
him. Before you face him, make sure that you have opened a town
portal. Buy a very good armor, items that increase your health points and your
attack rating, maximize your resistances and buy a lot of health/
mana potions. Also summon creatures to attack and distract him and cast spells
to
improve your skills. Try to apply the great strategy ,
if it is possible, othewise you may be dead in a few minutes. Cast final level
spells if you have a mage or take heavy weapons such as long swords/
hammers/ crossbows if you have a warrior/ archer. Another bad thing is that Baal
creates a clone. Both of them are named "Baal" but for the
fake one, the word "Baal" is lined up perfectly. The real Baal's name doesn't
line
up perfectly. If you can't see the difference during the fight kill
both of them, don't waste time to find this little difference, it might be fatal
for you hero. Good luck!
