Inferno Unbeaten By Internal Test Team
Inferno mode has been added to give us an even harder challenge in Diablo III. But just how hard is this difficulty?

Ladders
With no ladder resets, don't you think the replayability will be crippled in a few months due to abundance of epic gear?
If/When this problem occurs we'll address it. Its a long way off, let's enjoy release. but when it does happen I'd rather not solve it with a system that arbitrarily insists everyone re-roll there characters. (Source)
Low HP Toggle
Hey Jay, while you're answering Diablo 3 questions -- any chance that we can get a toggle option for the low hp "red alert"?
not likely. If we added every option requested we'd have hundreds and the options screen would be impossible to navigate. (Source)

Ok folks, officially overwhelmed with questions. It will be out soon and all will be revealed. (Source)

No... I understand that and I banked on the theory that we'll have to farm Hell gear to be able to play Inferno. However, you need to realize what the statement of, "None of our testers have beat Inferno" really means. The testers can START in Inferno with whatever gear they choose. Part of testing would be playing differently geared characters and playing Inferno. If they couldn't even beat Inferno with the best gear possible.... then either A) Blizzard didn't spend much time on testing or B.) They tuned the game too hard. I know a lot of us here are hardcore fans and like to think that Inferno will be exactly what we're after, but it's a concerning fact that nobody that is testing the game has even beaten it. Either conclusion is worrisome.
Source that's specifically what they do?
I realize this, in fact in another thread on this topic I made a post specifically saying that. Where's your source that people could choose any gear they want and they still didn't kill Act IV Diablo?
Jay's tweet says that nobody beat the Inferno difficulty. Premaking a character and testing encounters and killing bosses with the best gear possible is NOT beating it, it's merely developmental testing. Beating it would be using self-found/purchased gear to defeat all encounters up to and including the final one.
