I'll post updates tomorrow. But I want to leave you all with a question right now.
I've beaten normal Baal, and I jumped in to Nightmare to see how badly I do. I can kill pretty quickly in Act 1, but that's not the problem. Life leach is reduced 50%, which means I need 16% LL to not do damage to myself. I currently have 9%.
Here are some options:
1) Use my normal socket quest and drop an Amn in Shadowfang (that's 16% right there)
2) Go back and farm rubies and craft blood gear
3) Go back and farm Sigon gear (which I could still use)
Right now, I'm leaning on going back to farm Sigon gear. But I rerolled my map, so that could get interesting.
