Diablo 2 Resurrected Andariel | Where to Find Andariel
Andariel's pretty difficult to miss, since defeating her is part of the main storyline. She's in the Monastery catacombs, which are under the Monastery barracks and a bit tricky to find if you're new to the Diablo 2 world. Keep wending your way ever downward, activating waypoints as you go.
Andariel is a boss that is very versatile. She will use a combination of attacks that are both long-range and melee. She will also perform lunge attacks which puts you at massive risk. Your best bet is to go for ranged attacks as it is a safer alternative. Also, beware of the other enemies alongside Andariel. They will also attack pretty vigorously.
Attacks
When it comes to Andariel personally, she specializes in being a fast-moving enemy who uses poison attacks. Her lunges are absolutely deadly, meaning she shreds through any melee character that faces her. However, her poison attacks are both short and long-range, so don’t assume because you’re far away that you’re safe.
Unlike other bosses, Andariel does not generate any hit points. However, there are certain factors upon which the Defenses of Andariel are determined. These factors are explained below.
One strategy is to have your retainer distract Andariel while you attack, but even still, plan on this fight taking at least two tries or more. Fortunately, unless you log out, Diablo 2 bosses don't regenerate health. Strike a balance between aggressive play and conserving your valuable items, and you'll eventually find success.
The best way to deal with Andariel is by keeping a healthy stock of health potions and keeping your distance. Though she can still attack long-range, it’s still a much safer approach than getting close. If you’re playing a melee class, try to keep your ranger hireling alive so they can shoot at her while you run around and draw her attention. Also, clearing out her minions first isn’t a bad idea, since it helps free up the room for dodging Andariel’s attacks. Another way to help yourself is by using as much poison-resistant gear as you can find; it’ll help make her hits less painful.
