I believe what Blizzard did for melee's in this patch was just right.
As a fairly avid player I made it to inferno like 3 weeks ago, but that wasn't fast enough to take advantage of the cheap AH items that I would inevitably need to get through Acts 2,3, and 4. Before the patch, I was able to down Belial with all the tank gear that I've amassed doing Butcher runs and playing the AH. But now, its like night and day. I did enjoy the challenge of not being able to take on two packs of elites at the same time. But I also didn't like having to kite shit for a stupid amount of time either. I rerolled a DH less than a week ago because I wanted to see how easy things were for ranged peeps. Now I think I'll go back to my Barb and experiment with some new builds. The end game was never meant to be played as a tank with just a couple of interchangeable abilities. This is the game that I've been waiting for. Except for the stupid high prices of repairing your equipment... >.>
Playing times: Central. I'm on a lot but never at a set time because of my lame job.
I've been playing D2 since it came out. I'm in school for law enforcement. I enjoy various kinds of death metal, black metal, and ambient music. lastly, I live in Minnesnowta : )
