Hey all,
My Trapassin's at lvl 22 with complete Angelic, Bloodfist, Treads of Cthon,
Tarnhelm, 18% Nagel on the other finger, Stormguild, and Snakecord.
My A2 Def merc is lvl 18 and has Coif of Glory, Darkglow and Razortine.
With complete Angelic and Tarnhelm I have a nice +2 to skills boost, but
even that doesn't seem to help much. Duriel dusts my merc pretty quickly.
My shadow lasts a little longer, but by the time she goes his life bar is
only down about 10-15% with me helping.
Do I need to lvl to 24 (for LS and WOF traps)or should I just make a bunch
of trips to town and back to wear him down?
This is SP BTW, and I have access to most uniques with ATMA, so if I just
need a gear change I'd love to hear suggestions!

Melee him to death! Cold resists and life are very useful against
Duriel. Drink a thawing potion before the fight, or boost CR some
other way. Load up socketted armour with good quality rubies for more
life. Hsarus' Belt is good for +life and +CR. Remember to keep
casting the shadow and keep stabbing away.
Untested - maybe a slower Duriel might be easier to manage. Try
cleglaws gloves.
You are on players-1 aren't you? Maybe you didn't remember to switch
back from players-8 in the tomb (I made a similar mistake myself
recently).
