Uber troubles for Zealot/Smiters

[the boss]

Hi, I'm about to go hunt for organ set, just in case if anything else happens could anyone tell me when fighting Uber Izual, Lilith, or Uber Duriel, would there be a chance that Oblivion Knights would appear and cast Iron maiden or Amplify damage?




Thanks

In "Furnace of Pain" where Izual lures, there are alot of oblivions that can and WILL cast both Amp and IM, it sucks but you just gotta face it.

Easiest way that I have found for the 'furnace' has been to use an amazon. I use a bowzon, but any pitrunner (any class) should work ok. Atma's ammy is fun there. I like to amp them back.

You don't need to have a super strong character... just enough to clear the interference so your smiter can whack Izzy.

As i recall there are some hellwitches (PI?) and little knee high guys there too. But I do not recall anything you would not find while mf'in the Worldstone.

Usually, my friend teles to the mini-Ubers for me using his hammerdin. He clears out the minions while I whack away at the Ubers. No IM to worry about.

You can easily run past the monsters in all mini-uber areas if you buy a teleport amulet or use Najs Staff (or Spellsteel) on switch. Just when you see a crowd blocking your way, switch and tele. I usually just run, but that sometimes forces me to kill monsters. (Wolf barbs dont really fear Iron Maiden) Witches in Lilith's area have high physical resistance, but are NOT immune.

I have the privilege running ubers with a healer using eni, so he teles everywhere, except in forgotten sands, and in furnace he uses holy bolt to smash the Oblivions and I only die occasionaly.

i use a rare tele ammy on my smiter.

problem solved >.<

[the boss]

Wait wait, how about if i use my kicker/fury sin for Izual, would Blade fury solve the problem of not attacking in melee but rather just shoot blade fury at them in range?

Cause, I'm most likely just gonna solo this up...

[BluzMan]

Eh... that would take ages to complete... Just get yourself a teleport amulet or the listed above items.

2 days ago I had a roll for the Furnace of pain with no Oblivion Knights. We had to deal with all except physical immune balrogs though, but for a zealer that should not be a problem.

And the blade fury assassin could work very well, my friend plays one and dies rarely ever and kills really well.

hmmm, that gets me an idea...:scratch:
