Oh, when launch comes around, I'll post my edited sharpen filter for the game. I modified it as to not introduce a ton of sharpen artifacts. Just minor color tweaks and IQ tweaks to make the game look a tad bit gloomier, and improve the IQ to counteract the post process AA.

Holy Freeze is pretty good. Beat Duriel at its own game.

Also, get a whole whack of thawing potions. They temporarily give you max cold resist (and most of Duriel's damage comes in the form of cold damage). And afaik, the time that resist lasts stacks.

I would love to see this too! The moment I started playing the expansion of D2 and mad emy first druid I was blown away by the new possibilities.

Since Assasins are basically split up in Demon Hunter and Monk, I don't really see what new class they could be going for.

necromancer maybe?

Witch Doctor covers Necro more than DH and Monk cover Assassin.

I'm thinking some kind of sword an shield class, like Paladin. Or a spear user

So sexes have any gameplay ramifications beyond the superficial? I was looking at the Witch Doctor or Wizard. Witch Doctor seems like a lot of thinking on your feet. Wizard may be the easier option until I beat the learning curve.

I mean sure some people can care about it, but I care about the loot, the story is just something that pops up in the interim.

I wish you could wear weapons and armor over what you currently have equipped just for looks. Female wiz carrying a 2h sword really looks awesome, but not really viable compared to the wand and globe she should have equipped.

I play a lot of SC2 with two of my friends a lot, and we're all getting DIII. One of them is suggesting that we should pool our profits together. Is this possible with PayPal? I really don't want to be indirectly linked to others' bank accounts, nor do I want others to be linked to mine.

I'm rolling WD on my solo run. Zombie Wall and pets are too good to pass up for inferno. Wizard is definitely important for inferno as you said. The ranged AOE stuns and slows are great.

I'm surprised that there's so little interest in the Witch Doctor, that seems like it would have been one of the more popular classes. I would have thought Barbarian would have been one of the least chosen simply because of how generic and boring it is.

See I was thinking Barbs and Monks with the Shouts and Mantras would be strong contributor. I'll be playing DH myself, but I already have a couple of strong Co-Op builds ready for endgame testing.

Does anyone have any info on Diminishing Returns as they apply to Diablo? I'm curious about stuns and slows for the latter difficulties. Also, mob speed would be good too!

Yeah, that's what I thought until I actually played one. Nearly dropped WD. It is incredibly fun to play; there is a visceral satisfaction to Barbarian the other classes lack.
