Maybe it was just my young mind filling in the blanks, but the Diablo 2 plot seemed much more rich and complete. Honestly, it may just be all the poor voice acting and the script in Diablo 3. The bosses talk, and their lines lend no credence to their supposedly formidable presence or increase my dread of the inevitable encounter. It also doesn't help that Blizzard interjected terrible puns, references to pop culture, or just plain terrible jokes at any chance they could. Diablo 2 seems to at least respect the canon of the tale while in Diablo 3 Blizzard spares no opportunity to break the fourth wall, and I always imagine Peter Griffin wrote the story.
i see so many people soloing ubers, but I don't know why... it's a waste of time and honestly not an accomplishment worth mentioning. better to get three or four people together with multiple machines each. find someone, or a group who can guarantee a win at mp7. this way, each machine has a higher value than it does in a solo game. you'll get the win for sure, and a no risk chance to see how your skills and gear stack up.
If you watch the AH you can get a really good deal on one handers. I got two yesterday, both over 800 dps, 88% crit chance, socket and ~60 dex. I paid 7 mil for them combined. Socketed with 90% emeralds and an additional 32% crit damage from my gloves, I'm at 438%. With 47.5% crit chance, that sets me over 83k dps. That's the other factor, you need good crit chance to make the crit damage worth a lot. My Cluster Bombs can hit for over 200k damage, so it isn't all weak pea shooting.
