Andariel's Visage

From Diablo 2 Wiki

Andariel's Visage is an elite Unique Helm with an item level of 85 and a Character Level requirement of 83. It is imbued with the Poison damage and resistance of Andariel herself. Unfortunately, it carries a penalty to Fire Resistance, making it the only item in the game that has a resistance penalty. This could be problematic, especially in Nightmare or Hell difficulty.

This Unique can only be found by B.net Realm Ladder characters, or in single player.


Notes

The head is one of the most vulnerable and important parts of the body, so protective headgear of all sorts have long been a staple of a decent suit of armor. The simplest designs consist chiefly of a tight-fitting leather or metal cap, securely fastened to remain atop one's head. More advanced designs include faceted sides to deflect and absorb attacks, noseguards and gorgets to protect the nose and neck, and even visors that close over the face. A sturdy helm may be one of the best investments an adventurer can make.

  • In 1.10 of the Expansion the odds of gambling a Unique is 1 in 2000.
  • Elite Uniques are found only in the Diablo II Expansion, not in Diablo II Classic.


Key

  • Item Level: Chests and monsters must be at least this level to drop the item. Ilvl is used in gambling, sales and other calculations as well.
  • Clvl Req: Your character must be this level or higher to equip the item. No Uniques had Clvl requirements prior to v1.07 D2.
