I've been asked about Baal's stats, so figured it'd be best to answer here rather than somewhere private. Baal's resistances are based on monstats.txt, skills.txt (his salvation aura), and UniqueItems.txt (he has an inventory, just like Valkyrie and Assassin Shadows).

Monstats.txt Resistances
Code:
      Phys  Mag  Fire  Ltng  Cold  Pois
Norm   30    25   60    60    60    60
NM     50    40   75    75    75    75
Hell   85    75   99    99    99    99

skills.txt
BaalSalvation = Random +25-40% for each resistance separately, randomizing every 3 seconds

UniqueItems.txt
Note that I don't have access to monequip.txt, so I don't actually know what baal's wearing entirely, but it's probably just this hat.
BaalBoss (cap) = +95%PLReduced, +55%AbsorbEle, +35%AbsorbMag +40%PhysRes

Since Baal's base resistances aren't higher than 100%, I'm told that Conviction, LRes, etc will have full effect against breaking his immunities, rather than acting at 1/5th effect. For example, in Norm Baal's phys res will be 30% + 40% + 25-40% ( = 95-110%), but an AmplifyDamage of 11% should break his immunity in the worst case. It's unfortunate that there is no -%PhysRes gear. I have not experimented with this or heard of reason to doubt it. It looks like elemental damage with loads of -%EleRes gear and a powerful Conviction and LRes is the way to go in Hell difficulty.

<edit> Corrected Norm PhysRes range from 95-135% to 95-110% </edit>

His salvation adds to all damage types? So Hell Baal is always magic immune? (I didn't get to try him in Dew's patch)
