Guys - you are working too hard on this.

You can take out the bad guy at *NO* *RISK*, without a staff of
apocalypse, and with
one spell only.  Golem.  Sure, you gonna have to send in at least a
dozen of them, but
the beauty of it is, you aim old claybrains in, he gets crunched up, and
you just
send in another.  Repeat till Diablo eats it.  I've done this twice now,
once in
single player and once in multiplayer.  The hardest part for me now is
clearing levels
13 thru 15, and enough of 16 that I can find a safe haven to cast golems
from.

The one downside to it is that it's a real test of your patience - it
took me between
15 and 20 minutes last time I did this, most of which was spent waiting
for the golem
to stroll over to where the bad guy was. At a minute to make the trip,
you gotta have
nerves of steel.
