Duriel absolutely pasted me. Went recover, and for the first five attempts? It spawned me in with Duriel
right behind me, and my corpse behind him. Basically had zero chance, as before I can react, he hits me with Cold, slowing me down. Two hits later I go squish.
Got there in the end though! I did appreciate that my damage on him remained, so wasn’t always a blank slate.
Yeah, Duriel is one of the big walls in the game. Tiny arena, he's fast as hell and then the slow from his hits makes evading him basically impossible. You can have your merc try and tank him for a bit but they won't last long.
And then his drops are usually crap on top of that. Like, one time I killed him and he dropped a single scroll of town portal.
