It varies as the ladder progresses. In the first week it can be 1:1, then it drops to 1:2. Around now it's probably 1:3 - 1:4 (tg:sigs)

hp/mana - click on the bottom part of the respective globe.
ilvl - no. However any rare item you find after chaos sanctuary terror will have max ilvl (99). Rerolling a rare with the dragon recipe will give you an ilvl 40/80/99 on hatred/terror/destruction.

Does Dul'Mephisto always summoning 2 Veil Kings after 5-10 seconds? Havent seen this in any Video about the Boss but maybe its a new mechanic. I'm killing all the Earth Fiends before attempting the boss, but the Veil Kings are roflstomping me (at least same MS if not a little higher as I have, so no way to run from them + killing the Boss at the same time). Or is there any other way to do him without him summoning those guys? Do I need more dmg? After summoning those guys he is normally at ~50% or so.

Always when he is close (melee range), when you cast tantrum while running away he will die to open wounds without spawning a single Veil King. Get 100% OW and any Tantrum bow. Other skills work too, a sin for example can easily do it with ATMG.

Slow target is incredibly useful here, such as a trap rat using a Lo RW and just kiting him around with Quillstorm without ever letting him get too close.

Ah okay, tried it with my Lazydin and Terror Strike. Guess I have to get a Tantrum Bow then, Skills should be pretty much the same either way (for this Boss at least)

Thanks for the answer!
