I remember in Baal runs people would ask me to only summon my Golem and didn't care I didn't do much damage. |
i remember my one point into salvation was the only useful thing coming from me in hell baal games. and dammit i was appreciated...(not like i could do much else when my planned weapon was an azurewrath...fuckin lvl 85 requirement >.>)
another point that came across my mind regarding the skill system though - it encourages early development of characters. I mean, in D2, points went solely to your endgame skill and its synergies, meaning that early game skills were skipped over unless they were a synergy. at least the newer method encourages you to spend your points early (instead of hoarding) and have more fun in the meantime (read: early levels), as opposed to having your fun at endgame, not that it took long to reach it (considering that lvl 70 could be achieved in under 16 hours even in the beggining of ladder). i think looking at it from that aspect its a nice change - certainly not D2-ish but thats why it isnt D2.
and so far, even with just single player expirience median XL is a godsend for those wanting to play more D2. thanks again to Words of Wisdom for the link. now if i could round up a few people to play it as well...
um..stuff
