Try to make sure you cap your resistances whenever possible (75, 75, 75) You can see this from the defence Panel on your character screen if you press the default key C. For everytime you kill Kitava your resistances will be reduced by 30 for a maximum of 60 reduced resistances after you kill Kitava the second time. Get an Instant (Seething/Bubbling) Divine Life Flask as soon as you can. This flask is very important. Try to get as much life as you can on any piece of gear where-ever you can, for examples of gear, refer to the items section and click the drop down menu between Early and End game.
