Found a ring thats worth several millions yesterday so I'll be 10m+ and rdy to go ! Could you post your monk profile ? | ||

They can dmg mobs, then quickly zone out. But I wonder if zoning out will heal them to full or not. EDIT: Looks like there were 2 other DHs who did it - they probably did inferno on multiple chars, i.e. the char that shows up on the site doesn't have all the kills. Its not that highly unlikely. If you play in a party with barb/monk Dh is okayish. Still the most likely to die but if youre always vigilant you can survive any situation. I had about 20m of gear, 1000 fireres with barb and monk buff and in the end i died 1 lvl before cydaea to a blood clan occultist because we spread them and my barb buff ran out, after getting hit by 2 fireballs from their illusions the third one was from the real champion and did 32k. It was really my mistake though for not properly dodging them when i was on low discipline and without buffs, i could have just ran away and came back in 30seconds. Currently leveling a new one, this time ill play 1hand with shield though, for the extra safety. Because despite 1k allres you still get hit pretty hard when gloom isnt up by everything with ~3,3k buffed armor :/ | ||

Kind of feel trolled by Blizzard (as there are other sewer holes that you can go back up), but it was still my fault and I'm happier to die that way than due to a disconnect. | ||

![[image loading]](http://i48.tinypic.com/vpvm75.png) The big debate right now is should I keep safely farm a1 and wait for 1.04 or just go for a2. | ||

Though the overall damage nerf will be helpful, but still not what i really wished for. Gloom and SS are strong defensive spells, but you just cant always react in time :/ | ||

DH is way too unforgiving tbh. You "miss" one SS or gloom and well, you're done. | ||

I did a complete act2 run with monk/barb and it was easier than ever. No packs got us in trouble. Found a zunimassa ring and at least 3 other 10m+ items. Here is my guy : http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/JSnow-1669/hero/24197154 | ||

We were in act2 sewers and encountered Arcane - Vortex - Minions - Desecrecator Wiz died even though he had 1000+ AR / 1100 LoH and more Other monk managed to survive thanks to NDE I got @ 5% life 3 times but still didn't pop NDE. My heart pumping so hard, who says diablo can't be exciting ? | ||

http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Gunnar-2402/hero/18757530 I keep changing my mind about whether to go with Firebomb[Fire Pit] or with Plague of Toads[Explosive Toads]... The toads do *so* much more damage, especially to bosses and elites, but ofc its a bit risky getting up close and personal, and I don't know whether it will be possible to do so later on in hell or in inferno as a WD, even with the extremely defensive skills I have chosen. Any tips on how to improve my gear are very appreciated as well, I can farm Act 1 Hell up to about the Aranea Queen very safely & fast, but after that I start dropping to 50% and having to kite around after my dogs die for the tougher packs. | ||

Also the weapon I was using on the monk was the same the wizard was using so now the wizard is weaponless and I have no money to re-equip. I'm thinking now I'm going to have to give up HC until I can upgrade my computer, but I don't think I can go back to SC as it's seems so boring and pointless now.  | ||
