Hey all,
After a very generous boost from ArtDent (many thanks, again!), my MF
skellimancer is having a blast with complete Trang's. However, when I go up
against Baal now he's really in a fighting mood and his behavior has changed
drastically. Decrepify has NO effect on him whatsoever. He's not slowed
down the slightest bit, almost continually blasts me with that fire hose
that drops my life and mana quite quickly, and he spawns his clone pretty
much a minute after I show up.
I was counting on being able to mine Hell Baal with greater ease with some
gear adjustments (some of them hacked, but hey, it's SP so I'm hurting no
one except myself!) but he's become to irritating and frustrating to be
worth it. Is the game programmed to recognize when you've become more
powerful (i.e. complete elite sets and/or hacked "itamz" ) and adjust itself
accordingly?

Decrepify does slow but its more about interupting his attacks
with yours and Decrepify tips the balance so he has less
time to complete an attack.
Of course if your not getting a chance to attack then it wont work.You
need to look at his main attacks which are fire and cold so increasing
your res so you can get in closer.Use a tp to
gather your minions in one concetrated attack and get a act
2 HF Merc along with Clay Golem and that should slow him
down a lot.Try and get him in a position where you are shielded
from his attacks but your minions can still attack.
