Fire arrow is bugged. It converts all your physical damage to fire damage, so 1 point is enough. |

In conclusion, the zon is well equiped to deal with all but elemental damage, and fairs decently there. Among the other classes, the Assassin is excellent in the third and fourth areas but weak in the first two, the Barb is good at the latter three but miserable about the first one, the Necromancer is excellent at the latter two and horrible at the first two, the Paladin, depending on build is either good at crowds but not single monsters or vice versa, and almost universally struggles against physical immunes, and the sorc is short on defensive capability. The zon is the class that comes closest to excelling in all four areas. |

Blood mana/magic maiden doesn't work if you have more HP than MP. It isn't terribly hard to be over 1000 in both with halfway decent equipment. Also, don't underestimate energy shield.

Nithlathak's a little bitch, but nobody bothers killing him on Hell so they can keep Pindleskin viable. |

Yeah, well, the other two aren't so bad either. Hell Baal is trivial so long as you aren't playing a crappy Necromancer with approximately no good equipment whatsoever (which is all I had played through with as of when I wrote that. And possibly a poorly designed Druid). Any class not Necromancer, and even Necro with decent design and equipment, can beat him without dying as well. And even the Ancients aren't so bad... you just need a well-designed character. The majority of my characters beat him without dying (or maybe once and only because I got sloppy). All the fights are winnable without dying assuming good design and arbitrarly good micro. Check the B.net ladder for level 99 hardcore characters that have beaten the game for an example of this. Its just that some take more effort than others. I personally think normal Diablo is up there. Your milage may vary. --SteveHaas |
