| That's a gray area for duriel, I've fought him through many levels but it all depends on build. Necromancers and Bowazons can have quite a degree on difficulty, most of it stems (in my opinion) to lack of points in vitality. Mercenaries and hirelings don't help much either.
Personally I think if you can reach them, you can kill them. It may take many, many goes but chipping them down can take persistance and deaths.
In the old days I've died like 18 or more times trying to kill duriel using a bowazon, he simply killed my decoys and mecenary in one hit. If you are at a level to use decoy cast it on the other side of the room and stay out of his holy freeze aura and just pelt him with all the fire arrows or ice arrows possible. If you have mana steal it makes it more cost effective to keep casting decoy and keep him occupied. If a bowazon don't be tempted to try and spear him, you'll still do more damage with a bow.
Keep using those town portals!
