lvl 97 and almost half ^^.. Today i died in a very noob way.. I just looked only for a fraction of a second at my phone... I was sure to be in a safe place (no corpse near me.. but not apparently ^^)... just turned eyes from the screen to the phone and back to the screen... Dead... DOH!
Im using a spirit but how much can i tank more with a storm? is it corpse explosion normal dmg that i tank with def right? what should a put inside the sox? eld? ith? pul? ber? jah? can it help? have i to identify my unid storm? ^^

Rip

corpse explosion - 50% physical, 50% fire damage, can be blocked

Stormshield will help a lot, you will block it more often, and when it does hit, it will do a lot less because of 35% dr

You meant Phoenix. Redemption aura via Phoenix removes automatically corpses.

SC? Telestomp him. If merc kills something else than Nihla, tele out and work your way inwards. Good tips here already.

Say if a Baal's minion corpse have on average 5500 hp. 50% of each is Physical and Fire = 2750 damage each. Even if you have 50% Fire and Physical damage reduction, 2750 is the average damage you will take on each explosion. Then you can block the physical damage, which will help a lot. Using % Fire Absorb would be a good idea too. Dwarf Star have 15% Fire Absorb each = Another 30% Fire damage recution = 1375 - 30% = 962.5 Fire damage.

So all in all, you will take big damage. Perhaps Mana Shield is a good idea too.

Do not do the mistake of wearing Nature's Peace for the Corpses Rest In Piece modifier, because Merc attacks won't benefit from it.

It’s 10-20% of the Monster’s HP, not 100%.

best advise is.. stay away from him. only do it just after lvl ups...

stay away is the best. only do him, just after lvl ups.. no big deal if you rip then

So Nihlathak's CE does not 100% of monsters HP? Source?

Aha, i see 70-120%, remembered wrong

But why 10%?
