Grinding on normal to progress? Something is off :|

I'd suggest toning minibosses a bit. Sorcerer is going to plow through them no matter what, but it is really not fair that he has it so easy and rogue - so damn impossible.

Here is my story about the Rogue: http://awake.diablo1.eu.org/beaten-hard-on-normal-scratch-that-pwned-them-with-sorc-t857.html Notice I had no problems in the sanctuary... Long story short, you can abandon your rogue run as the minibosses on Diablo's level (and few before) are totally, absurdly ove...

I avenged us! :D First and second of mini-bosses are worst (though still the fights took about 10 secs at most), third is somewhat easy. Diablo is harder than all of them. Ewen with the might of my chain lightning I was facing mana outages - in fact I required 16 full mana potions of continued elect...

You could remove mana shield and reduce all magic damage to 20% and the Sorcerer would be still way over the top. That's how insanely powerful he is, altough this is for normal where there are no immunites really.

Don't worry, I am going there for a revenge... so far Chain Lightning lvl 8, Fireball lvl 9, all utility spells (stone curse, teleport, firewall and whatnot), ~450 mana + 100 hp. Most mobs die in one cast. In fact most rooms full of mobs die in one cast as well, until the room is too big and some do...

I tried necro but didn't really understand his raise skill; the mob didn't seem to follow me and died almost immediately. I thought it was a bug and ditched the char altogether :)

The problem is sadly a bit more broader. Every single run of Sorcerer is a level up for him, because it is guaranteed to find or buy some books from Adria - even for more rarely used spells. Other characters get upgrades relatively rarely, because most of class items are unusable (all normal-speed b...

Right now playing a Sorcerer with all the books gathered on Rogue (altough she had used up a lot of them, too). It is like, 1% of the difficulty. I entered Leoric's tomb with lvl 2 fireball and chain lightning, and entire fight - including the big skelly and all his minion took literally 10 seconds....

It does, indeed! I just wonder, how many of these new quests were cut from original game or were made by this mod's team? Anyway, they are all great, except maybe the one named infested cellar. It does not seem to end after killing everything, but that's just a minor bug. Other than that, pure aweso...

You mean my rogue is unable to kill a mid-boss with normal progress of the game? If so, the mod was not playtested enough and has scaling issues. Fight with Lazarus was a total breeze and it was 5 minutes before experiencing such extreme difficulty. I am not sure which level should I have, though. M...

Beaten hard on normal (scratch that - pwned them with sorc)

Hello, fresh player back to D1 - and the mod is awesome! But as an experienced Diablo-franchise player who has beaten everything in each game on each difficulty I am not even close to defeating uh, entry bosses on Diablo's level... Generally it looks like I am failing a gear check. I play a rogue, d...
