I gave up trying to get past Diablo with my old sorceress. Didn't build her up properly. As the old saying goes, I learned from my mistakes

Have a new sorceress up to level 30 just starting act 4. Was more careful how I divided up her skill points. Every spell has at least one point this time. Can't wait to have another crack at Diablo. Might get past him, finally
