Hi there :howdy: !

I'm looking for a list or a link giving the best places in Hell (From Act 1 to Act 5) where there's no lightning immune monsters at all. By "best" I mean : overcrowded places, I like tight mobs of monsters :lol:.
I hope someone has this information, thx :jig: !

There really is no such place as Unique monsters randomly generate immunities (double in hell). Cows often have one or two, a good place for lighting. The countess is usually cold + fire, another great place.

i doubt such a list exists, since the type of monsters usually varies.
the only exceptions are certain caves and similar like mausoleum with no cold immunes.

act1 - i'd try countess tower
act2 - sewers?
act3 - might be your best bet. iirc gloams are the only type of monster which is alway li. you'll encounter some in kurast area though. so try flayer jungle and Great Marsh.
act4 - forget
act5 - not sure

i guess you're aiming for runes, so search for best places to find runes cuz this is often done with a lightsorc.

I rarely see lightning immunes in the pits... although, they do pop up sometimes... but usually, a lot of fire immunes and cold immunes. In fact... I can't specifically remember ever seeing a lightning immune... but they can exist there... i'm a barb, so I don't pay attention to immunes in the pits.. they are never PI's.. :)

Like I said above, Uniques receive two immunities in hell, lightning can always be one of those two.

Of course there will always be the chance of unique monsters with any immunity, but I guess Frosty is willing to deal with them - he just wants an area where none of the normal monsters are lightning immune.

I would recommend the Act 3 Sewers.. shouldn't be any normal lightning immune monsters there, the first level is a level 84 area and the second is level 85, just like The Pit, etc. Random uniques and minions in the Sewers can drop any unique item in the game.

Thx Stormie,

Doing some Act 3 Sewers runs again should be very fun, I haven't been killing a single monster in here for a very long time ! I think I'll perform some pit runs too, sounds good to me, my merc and my walkyrie can take care of those lightning immunes if ever they should spawn (yes I'm a Javazon :lol: )

Do you think Hell Cows is a reasonable choice too (1 or 2 players game) :scratch: ?

archers are lightning immune and archer packs are the most dangerous thing down there. hard to kill for a merc cuz they are fast and run a lot.

arcane sanctuary never spawns lightning immune packs other than the towers.

Also IIRC nihilthaks temple level 1 or 2 never spawns lightning immunes ( i could be remembering incorrectly though). I remember running that with my java in hell a bit.

Thanx for the tip.

BTW, I found the answer of my dreams here (http://www.d2exp.com/).
It allowed me to check what you said and indeed, no lightning immunes in the Arcane Sanctuary :thumbsup: !

As a Javazon myself, I have been doing hell countess, hell pits, than bringing in another character to make cows and clearing it with the zon afterwards. None of these area's give me any trouble, except for the amount of non mana leechables ( undead etc) I always go through waaay too many pots. But yeah Hell cows is easy, just watch out for Fanatic boss packs and use your decoy lol.
