Quote from Britward
Does anyone remember, well before Diablo II's release as it was still in production, a cinematic of the Wanderer in a carriage driving through the rain, and he was in some long soliloquy about the Hells and traveling to the far east for his salvation, and the teaser ends on a shot of the Wanderer's lips being sewn shut and then the soul stone lying in the mud in the rain?
I'm not making this up, right?
I feel like it was out when they were still tossing around the idea that the character you'd play in Diablo II was going to be the guy with the soul stone in his/her head.
No that happened, but last I heard that video is considered non-canon and irrelevant to the storyline.

300 pre NV, 375 with NV factored in.

Barbs are expensive as hell to get REALLY geared, but it's amazing how many cheap weapons there are with tons of +life on hit and either a socket or crit damage. If you just get over 30-35% crit you can progress, no matter your DPS.

It's obvious why act 1 mobs kill more players in Inferno than any other... most people don't get past act 1 Inferno in hardcore. If those are rares they are just as deadly as any other if you're not prepared.

Since then I've easily bought and sold a few million gold worth. Once you have gold, it's a LOT easier to make more, but getting that first few million was a pain in the ass for me. I was VERY unlucky with drops pre 1.04 and since have gotten much better drops, but that's just as much the patch as anything.

My templar on my WD has 48.5% dodge, 73k hp, so he almost never dies and even though I have > 2k life regen his heals are still really useful. There have been times my dogs and gargantuan all died to desecrator or who knows what and he was the only thing tanking an elite pack for me. He's a straight balla.
Edit: Oh but yes a LOT of times monsters run right past him. That's why I gave him chance to freeze

My templar is currently sitting at 48.5% dodge and 73k hp. If only his resists were at 600+, too!

15% of 200 million is 30 million gold lost by selling on the AH. You want to give him 30 million so he can sell it on there? Be my guest.

If you buy so much gear that you're sitting there at 800+ all res, 2000 LOH, 40% crit and 300% crit damage, guess what? You probably won't ever find an upgrade. It's statistically unlikely to ever get drops as good as the great items you see on the AH. As of this time I've seen ONE item over 1k DPS drop, a blue 2 hander. The millions of people playing plus the AH makes for a gear filter. Only the best stuff gets on there.
Here's a hint: if you don't buy so much gear, you will find upgrades. I mainly farm inferno act 1 on my wizard while I level each other class to 60. Once everyone's at 60 I constantly find items on my wizard and say "Wow! That's great for my fresh 60 monk!"
People constantly underestimate how hard it was to farm Hell in D2 on a fresh character, especially pre-LOD. Look at the proportion of people farming Inferno D3 and compare that to D2's playerbase farming Hell this far into release and I am willing to bet a lot more people are in Inferno.
You do NOT need to buy any gear to get to Inferno. My first character a wizard I did run into a brick wall first on Rakanoth and then Diablo in Hell, but I overcame them eventually. Act 1 Inferno is not much harder than Hell A4, at least not the start. I was still using Leoric's Crown that I found in normal Act 3 when I got to Inferno... I definitely found an upgrade pretty quick.
Conclusion:
If your goal playing this game was to find items and have fun doing so, why did you buy gear on the AH?
Take responsibility for your actions. Want to have fun finding items again? Go to the AH and buy gear for every slot with a max price of 4-5k gold. Hell you might have to bump it down to 3k. Force yourself to play with this gear and find upgrades on your own.

If you can get 80 resist all and 60 fire resist that gives you 140 all resist with that ability
