Mephisto: is a Monster and a Demon and a SuperUnique and an Act Boss

Mephisto is a Demon, a SuperUnique, and an Act Boss.

Mephisto is the act boss of Act Three, and must be defeated to complete The Guardian quest and to move on to Act Four. He is brother to Diablo and Baal, is the first of the three Prime Evils a player encounters in Diablo II, and appears in the game as a skeletal, floating, legless apparition. Mephisto battles at melee range, but also possesses a wide variety of powerful enchantments, mixing lightning with poison and cold damage.

Despite these advantages, Mephisto is the most popular "monster run" in the game, since he is quickly reached from the Durance of Hate, level 2 waypoint, and since he drops very tasty items. Item running "Meph" was made more difficult in v1.10, when Durance level 2 was greatly enlarged and the layout was randomized, but dedicated item runners still make Meph the backbone of much of the mid-level Diablo II economy. Hell Mephisto can not drop the highest level items, but he's a great source of all exceptional items, and most of the low-to-mid level elites.

A popular way for ranged attackers to defeat Mephisto is to use the blood moat against him. Lure him to the edge of it, then move back into the open area at the start of the level so Meph remains just at the edge of the screen. He will pace around in a small area, able to see you but unable to get any closer, and slowly succumb to arrows, bolts, spells, thrown weapons, or other such attacks.

Stats are displayed by difficult level: Normal / Nightmare / Hell.

Offense

Mephisto's stats are all preset. He does not get any random Monster Modifiers.

Name	Melee	Melee AR	Increased Attack Speed	Increased Casting Speed

His lightning bolt can hit multiple targets in a row.
His Iceball deals physical and cold damage, and chills for several seconds as well.

Name	Lightning	Charged Bolt	Poison Cloud	Iceball	Frost Nova	Blizzard
Mephisto	Lightning dmg: 15-180 15-270 15-390	Lightning dmg: 1-90 (8 bolts) 1-130 (11 bolts) 1-194 (15 bolts)	Poison Damage: 66 over 16.8s (3.9/sec) 103 over 19.2s (5.4/sec) 164 over 22.4s (7.3/sec)	Physical+Cold: 44-48 + 84-98 (7s) 68-72 + 138-158 (10s) 108-112 + 234-270 (14s)	Cold dmg: 40-60 (8s) 100-120 (14s) 180-200 (22s)	Cold (4s duration): 120-159 172-215 310-357

Defenses

After v1.10, Mephisto can not be leached for life or mana on Nightmare or Hell. Characters will need to bring along sufficient potions to stay alive and keep their mana flowing, on those difficulties.

Like the other act bosses, Mephisto does not regenerates hit points.
Drain Effectiveness tells what % of a character's mana and life steal apply to that monster. 100 is all, 0 is none.
Chill Effectiveness tells what % of a character's cold length applies to the monster. 100 is all, 0 is no freeze/chill at all.

Name	Defense	Blocking	Regen Rate	Drain Effectiveness	Chill Effectiveness
Mephisto	183 / 1286 / 2697	20% / 40% / 50%	--	100 / 0 / 0	25 / 15 / 10

Resistances

Resistances over 99% are listed as immunities and monsters will take no damage from that type of attack.
Immunities can be "broken" by skills that lower resistance, if the value drops below 99%. See the Resistances page for more details.

Name	Physical	Fire	Cold	Lightning	Poison	Magic
Mephisto	0% / 0% / 20%	33% / 50% / 75%	25% / 25% / 75%	33% / 50% / 75%	50% / 50% / 75%	0% / 0% / 50%

Locations

All SuperUniques (except for Uber Diablo) are found in roughly the same location every game, on all three difficulty levels. (Except for the Uber Monsters who are only found on Hell Difficulty.)

Name	Location
Mephisto	Act 3: Durance of Hate, level 3.
