I had not played LOD in a few(?) years. I installed patch 1.14b. On normal, my level 20 barb was overwhelming everything until I got to tal rasha's tomb. The unravelers would take half my heath points with a single unholy bolt (or at least very quickly with unholy bolts). What I thought was a pretty strong barb hid behind walls while my rogue mercinary mowed down the unravelers pretty easily. She was wearing Arctic Furs ("all resistances +10" but I thought that didn't affect magic attacks). Eventually we got through the unravelers and my barb killed duriel easily. Didn't even need a potion. This is not the way I remember this part of d2/lod. Are barbs more vulnerable to magic attacks than before?
