a friend of mine, playing the Necromancer and actually a quite good, if unexperienced, player, has problems beating... Andariel

what can a Necromancer do to beat Andariel? unfortunately I don't know his particular problems with her, but some of you might know the main difficulties wit hher and how to handle with them...

I'm getting close to there. I've heard people say that you should dodge the lightning rays. Personally, I'm hoping that my Fire Golem/Bone Spear/Iron Maiden stretegy will work.

Yep lots of potions works for me. I found diablo fairly easy to kill, just keep out of his way.
I'm trying to get a hardcore character up to him so i can kill him. So far my level 24 hardcore character died opening the seals. A level 21 hardcore character died in the spider caverns in act 3 and my current hardcore character is level 18 at the end of act 2.

Been a while since I've played a Necro, but I recall that having 4 points in Skel Mage was an excellent investment. If you get Freeze Mages going for the boss fights, they are SOOOO much easier.

After the 1.03 patch, I created a new necro and only sunk a couple of points into CE. They only major use for CE is to blow up corpses so they can't be raised. For that purpose, raise skel is much cheaper, and works just as well.

DinoDoc, why so much strength? Necros should be in the fray, so you don't need to don any high str req equips. I think moving some of those str points into vitality would work out better for you.

What is so good about revive? The monsters just last for 3 minutes at level 1.

They are still pretty good. Its surprising how long three minutes of game time is.

Lots of discussion about necromancers, does anyone besides ghen have such detailed strategies for the other classes?

How about the Paladin?

I actually came here to ask about corpse retrieval. I heard about it in Diablo II reviews, but it doesn't seem to happen in Diablo, at least in SP. So is that just a multiplayer phenomenon in II as well?

While we're at it, what about the save system? some reviews seem to indicate that every time you exit the game, all the levels fill back up with monsters.
how does it work?

OK. You automatically save when you quit. YOur corpse mysteriously appears back in town, and all monsters in all levels are reincarnated. That's it. Now, time to dig out the Diablo II CD out of the stack building up on top of my tower.

Argh.... I just dropped the whole stack.... Yes! My Civ II CD case isn't broken....

If you play in the Realms, the monsters don't reset; otherwise, as above.

If I quit when killed, I automatically appear back in town.
but if I'm exploring and have to quit for some other reason (going to bed, work, or some such inconsequential), do I still appear back in town?
I'm playing Diablo for 15 minutes at a time sometimes, and if it's like that, I may just wait until somebody gives me their spare copy.

What about if I cast a town portal, and then save in town?

You reappear in town anyhow. Is magic...
