Question on Lilith

I hope this is the right forum for this.

I took a stab at the uber guys with my light sorc and a friend on his ama. We got izzy first and he died easy. Next was lilith, the curious thing was that the ama could tank her quite easily, but for some reason we couldnt keep up with her life regen. So essentially we could fight her all day but not kill her. We tried using a prevent monster heal mask on the ama, but still no luck.

Ideas, input, anything would be usefull. I do realise this is not the perfect class setup for fighting these guys, but we thought it would be fun to try.

Thanks in advance.

If you insist on doing it with a light sorc and a bowazon, put some crushing blow gear on the zon (it's a bit nerfed with ranged attacks and against bosses, but it's better than nothing). Can Lilith be poisoned or have open wounds? If so, that could stop her life regen. I don't think prevent monster heal works on her though.

use a lower resist wand and you'll see the lightning sorc light her up

I thought summit said that she is immune to poison, although it only list it as 110 %. If that is the case, LR might work well.

Resists more than 99% = immunity, and lower resist (and conviction, amp and decrep in those cases) will only work with 1/5 effectiveness. To break Lilith's poison immunity, you'll need LR to lower resists by 55%, which is attainable with a necro with 1 point and some decent +skills.

The best way to kill the Ãœbers is to have a character with crushing blow with an attack skill which always hits. A melee character should have 50% damage reduction as well because she hits very hard. The zon should consider wearing Goreriders and Guillaumes, even if shooting speed suffers a little. Lilith likes to go into melee, so if the zon is a javazon (who has a shield and most probably maximum blocking), she should enter melee range before Lilith selects to go for the sorc. As I said, 50% damage reduction (Stormshield+something, for example) is a good idea. She can still throw javelins instead of actually doing melee, of course.

BTW, conviction doesn't lower poison resistance.

BTW, conviction doesn't lower poison resistance.

...which is why I wrote "in those cases". My english still need improvement. What I should have written is "in their respective cases" or something, indicating that the 1/5 penalty for resist lowering above 99% also apply to those skills.

BTW, krischan... Do you have any chars on EU ladder? Could I kindly ask you for the travincal WP and the Durance 3 WP? I'm getting some people together to start fresh, and act 3 is sooo boring and time consuming...

We'we not started yet, most likely tonight.

she's not immune to lightning but you'll do a TON more damage if she is lr'ed, she probably has ~90% lightning res unless you use the wand on her

 

[helvete]

75% lightning resist, a griffon and some facets would help a lot.
