About the monsters... the bitches were the biggest problem do to my low hp (im clvl 30 so ive done a 3@30 without mana shield). Anyway a good dose of teleport and SC combined with golems done the lazarus trick. Diablo was easy cause u dont loose equipment on dlvl 16 so i simply went on a all out offense.
Anyway, shield with +str and cranium basher is OK then?
