Endless grind, stuck in Lut Gholein

Hi guys. I need your help. After a long time I reached level 51 with my barbarian, in nightmare difficulty. Now I’m stuck in Lut Gholein, because everytime I try to kill Duriel I get killed, I get killed even before reaching Duriel, by the minions. I have 105 points in strength, 105 in dexterity, and vitality, and 25 in energy, and 15 points in natural resistance, I even need to use a socketed shield not to get killed, and I already used the first two reset stats/skills from Akara. I spend all my money on reviving my mercenary, repairs and potions. No I started to grind the far oasis because I level faster with all the bugs swarming around, but not fast enough, I found only one experience shrine now and then, and I got bored doing the same thing everyday, just to pass to Kurast. Thanks.

So what kind of help do you need? Help to kill that nasty Duriel or help with your build?

Hi, and thanks for the reply. I mean the only way to get out of Lut Gholein, and getting to Kurast, is leveling to 60 or higher, and then trying to kill Duriel?

To get to Kurast you need to kill Duriel.
Actually you’re already quite overleveled for Act2 NM…

Want me to hop on my Zon and snuff him for you?

Sure, thanks mate. I appreciate it. But how I invite you into my game?

Just make a game. Tell me what it is here and I’ll join it.

OK, I will, thank you for helping me.

No problem. Not like it would take long.

I think you forgot tell me what the game’s name is.

Sorry, the game is CONAN.

Says the game doesn’t exist. Did you create a game with a password?

No, I didn’t make a password.

Weird. When I try to join a game with that name it says it doesn’t exist. Are you on the US servers?

I’m on european, and I have this sorceress that is expressing hostility towards me, so it says in the game.

It’s a PVP thing. Just ignore it. Guess I can’t help you, we’re on different servers. That sucks.

OK, thanks anyway mate. Have fun.

you can change your server in the launcher, characters are not region locked

Set it to US server?

I’ll try coming to you. Gimme one moment.
