The when static stops affecting her, try tanking her. Oh ermm without hacks you say? Potions potions potions, static static static, like the rest have mentioned. Slap on your occy rings, Ith staff and toast her with lvl 56 meteor and lvl 56 fire mastery (sorry for low skill levels, hard to get better at lvl 18). It's sort of necessary when you use Static Field, but zap-and-run is the way to go. You are a soft little girl, not a big barbarian, so you don't really want to stand in Andariel's face. If you have a few chipped gems, make sure your mercenary has a bow with three sockets, and put some emeralds in it for her. You might put three rows of health potions and one row of antidote potions in your belt to defend against the poison, too. You can stay alive against her poison with those gloves, definitely!

The other option is to stand close to her with one finger on the Static Field mouse button and another finger ready to pump potions into your mouth (keys 1-4 for the slots on your belt, if you haven't changed any key assignments). You lead her on a chase around that lake and shoot glacial spikes at her if she sits still. Then you draw her out to the front room with the lake of blood in it. You want to kill off as many of the other little beasts as you can first. I think you can take her with those skills. However, if Andariel hits you when your health is at 1. PS: Don't let poison damage scare you, it'll never kill you it just reduces your health to 1. Plus, as a reward for killing her you get to see the next cool movie. A better strategy for a Sorceress is to just keep on moving around. Also, your merc will be no help during this fight, Act Bosses do extra ( 2x? 4x? 10x? ) damage to mercenaries. Just keep slivering away her health and eventually you'll get her. Andariel's health won't regenerate so you can take as much time as you like. Antidote potions are quite useful for this fight, and just make sure you have some town portal scrolls so you can restock mid-fight.

Just use whatever your main skill is and keep hitting and retreating, hitting and retreating. If you don't have any points in Static Field it's quite easy to beat her it just takes a little more time. Then you just run up right beside her and Zap Zap Zap while gulping health/mana potions and the occasional antidote potion. Now that's spending too much time on a char.Īnyway, to answer your question, most Sorcs will have one point in Static Field by the time they reach Andariel. Hee hee hee.wait till you have a level 95+ character. "But I have spend so much time into this Character."
