Hello,

Is it possible to reach 100% "poison length reduced byx%", and would that make you immune to poison ?

Does deadly strike work with ATMG?

Yes, since its an WDM (weapon damage modifier) Skill.

Do minions regen life ?
If not, what are the most common way to keep them alive, class skills aside ?

he has a chance to teleport when he takes damage. stormfront hits 13x per second, so he will teleport away a lot. its random. killing a totem gives you a green curse that makes you die to any hit while the curse is active. astrogha uses frozen orb that kills you in one shot. the darklings have a chance to use deathstrike when you kill them (watch out for the little white cloud below your feet and move away). killing a totem within a small range of it near astrogha will heal astrogha a little bit.

If this 1 yo description of Astro's talents is still true, does pushing max cold res helps limiting Frozen Orb damage so it doesn't instakill me? Just trying to find a key to the fight, apart from the totem stuff.
Thanks

Socketting nas runes, bloodstone gems, MOing items... Or recast.

Thanks Philby.
I guess I won't escape recasting

frozen orb isn't instant 1 hit kill anymore but it does a huge amount of cold damage. you won't tank a full hit but it's been made so that you can take a hit from an ice bolt or two

So, looks like I need to make a special character to take on some of the ubers. My cold sorc and Orb of A necromancer just can't kill Hell Baal, or Kabraxis, or several others. What is a character, that with T4 items CAN take those down? My Sorc AND my Necro spend all their time fighting Baal's damn summons that after 1/2 hour, Baal is 50% or more. Beyond frustrating.
