1. Can you leave the arena and come back? e.g. to res the merc
2. Can you leave the game and rejoin and enter the portal again?
3. Can multiple people enter the arena?
4. Do i get it right that the minions are limited number and if you kill them all, they won't spawn any more?
5. Does anyone know their stats? life, defense, attack damage, etc.
6. Does Madawc cast shout like regular ancients?

1. Y
2. Haven't tried myself, but it's likely to work exactly like uber Tristram. Just keep in mind creating a new game nukes the previous game (if unpopulated) from the server.
3. Haven't tried myself, but it would be very surprising if that's not the case, in a multiplayer game.
4. According to the 5-6 runs i've done, that sounds about right, though there could be a very long cooldown before some new minions are generated, hard to tell without staying in the game forever.

1.) Yes and you return back in the portal and the ancients are in the same state; i.e. if 2 are dead and 1 is 50% that is what you will see
2.) Yes, but...it resets and you need to start over from scratch
3.) Yes, as long as the OG stays in game, no problem.
4.) I think there is a cooldown, and may respawn. I say this because I did clear one of the minion spawns then went after the other 2 Ancients. I seem to remember new spawns again at the end. I could be wrong on this.
5.) Maxroll and diabl2*io have these posted somewhere, sorry cant link
6.) This is a 100% "no clue", sorry. I want to say yes but....didnt really pay attention.

You mean they de-spawn and you have to re-activate the altar?
That's interesting, and kinda cool for testing purposes =]

3.) Yes, as long as the OG stays in game, no problem.

What happens if OG leaves, the remaining players can't enter the portal or what?

It does exactly that. So if you take down 2 and have 1 left and leave the game. You will return with all 3 at 100% just like when you began. 100% reset.

OK so i shouldn't have been worried. These ancients were no match against my lvl 97 holy shocker with barb BO and enchant sorc (killing DClone took forever as this guy, that's why i was worried). I was afraid they'd kill my merc and i'll have awful chance to hit without infinity conviction. I definitelly overprepared by even buffing with my merc's treachery. They are also not so hard to separate.

Answering my own question about shout, i did not see madawc casting it. He did cast SOMETHING mid fight, but I did not see shout aura.
