Ahh I understand now, thanks for clearing that up

Those are just flat resist auras. I don't think you can actually gain immunity. I think they give the same bonus as fire resist shrines (or other elements) which is... 75 flat I think?

Now I wonder what will be the best build because my current chars always get totally annihilated even though they are able to run Dfauzt for example. I'm only wondering because I don't know, they can farm most areas so it isn't needed but I just really don't know what's the best way to dance around in there.

Any build should be able to annihilate nith. Are you getting hit by his enhanced mob, maybe? Nith cats a blue spell and any mob he casts it on gets a blue Aura and becomes the Terminator and can one shot Jesus. Just avoid it. Also shock monkeys have insane light damage spells that will evaporate you if you don't have 80 or higher light res and a ton of hp. There's a few other cheap mobs in there but if you know their mechanics it should be farmable even with TUs

Pestilence necromancer with the celestial orchard set can just walk right on through. There's a few poison immunes but it's not a major deal. Graveyard poofs single target.

@skeptic that aura is Rathma's chosen. It makes invulnerable but removes poison resist, so poison is great for that

What's the minion life cap?

260K.

What is better, blood thorns or lemures_

Which is the first area that level 85 monsters appear in?
Does it appear in terror difficulty?
What is the chance of drop for a belladonna extract for those monsters?

Right now, I just entered A1Terror on a holy melee pally. I crafted some honorific gloves and have 40/70/75/67 res. I'm dying a lot still and want to know if there are some ways to get better gear at this stage.

What level are you? What is your defense? Dr%? Flat dr? All these will make things easier. You can get lv 70 in hatred without too much trouble. Jitans kimon is an easy place to get some dr% early. You can mo flat dr on rings/ammy.

Blood Thorns will likely be more optimal for area clearing because of it's range. Lemures lacks a little bit in mob clearing, but is good for single target since ND was removed, so all ghosts will hit.
