Blizzard has never said they won't add runestones to the beta. Please provide a link that says otherwise.
true, but blizzard DID say runestones will not appear until act 2. and have said MANY times that they will not add any further content to the beta past the skeleton king. they may add in runestones to act 1 to test them but they may only be tested internally and never see beta which is most likely considering their stand point on releasing more content.
True no runestones until Act 2. As you say, it doesn't necessarily mean they won't want them tested. Especially given how much changes they've gone through. It's something Blizzard seems to really want done correctly.
They said no content back when Diablo was still on track for a 2011 release. Now, I'm saying we'll say anything new on the level of the second and third parts of Act1. However, they've also added the GAH and RMAH, both are game content. Now that it could be another 1-7 months until a release, what Blizzard said pre-"delay" about the beta should be taken with a grain of salt.
Frankly, given how unclear Bash's statement was about giving us a look once completed, I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility that they would be added to the beta. Who knows if they will, but it's certainly possible.

I'm not sure how people don't think they are awesome. To each his own I guess.
Then spam Bears. It's completely viable in Inferno.

Perhaps the class just isn't for everyone. Thus far it's been the easiest to go through content for me. I'm certainly not the only one who thinks so.

It most definitely works, you just need a large amount of DPS to make it work.

That's fairly ironic, considering you started this off by trolling.
Good for Krip. That's pretty impressive.

Check out the spreadsheet http://www.diablofans.com/topic/46860-dps-spreadsheet/
As far as "how good is crit" really depends on your gear. For me, Increased Attack Speed is slightly better right now. I imagine if I add more AS, Crit % will be better.

If you want to sell your Blues, Gems, etc without messing up your checkpoint, head to the vendor to the left (Arghus the Collector) after you teleport back to town

I forgot to add 'you need', as in 'Zombie Handler is the only one you need that makes your pets tougher'. My bad there. With that lone passive talent the Garg is sustainable up through Act1 Inferno, and easily so in Hell.

Since when does one passive use all your passive slots? Zombie Handler is the only one that makes your pets tougher, so there's no reason to use anything else. Granted, the dogs are weak before then. The Garg is still hugely op in NM and even in Hell. His usefulness comes to an end in Act 2 Inferno.
WD are fine, and for me the easiest class to win with so far. I just hit Act 3 in Inferno and am enjoying the difficulty. Had a heck of a time against the Butcher though. Monk and Wiz are right up there so far, but I'm only into the 20s and 30s with those two. From what I can remember the, WD was comparable at those levels. Haven't touched a DH or Barb yet.

You don't see how posting numbers with zero to back them up is an "unwarranted assumption"? How could you not?

You're kidding, right?

How many of those are BiS right now? At one point in time they were, just like every legendary in D3. Naturally as you level up, they will no longer be the best.

So someone makes a valid critique of your thread and you come back with this sophomoric response?
Number 11 is probably the only legit one of the bunch. But really....pay a small bit of attention to your drops and the problem is fixed.
As far as the rest....man...I guess if they want to make the game more into a Diablo 2.5 or a D2 expansion then they'll implement some. But it's obvious they don't want that (which is a good thing), nor do the majority. After playing Diablo and D2 for several years, I'm ecstatic they changed it up. The games were good back in the day, but all this nostalgia from a few is getting old.

I've got an early 2011 MBP with a 6750M. With everything on high, I see around 20FPS running around town. Everything on low it jumps to 50FPS. Shadow Quality seems to have the biggest impact on Mac users, dropping me 10 FPS on it's own. So yeah, things are a bit rough on the Mac side right now, but I'm optimistic given the post Monk linked to. Running Lion does help (vs Snow Leopard).

You can't make that determination from the info given. In the context in which he stated it, I'd say the opposite is true.

You still playing D2 has no bearing on whether you feel nostalgic. Go look up the word.
