It's not as hard as you'd think. Keep in mind that p64 was before monsters received an increase to their base hit points in patch 1.10. I've done it before. It only took a few minutes to punch the first zombie to death. Before long I had enough gold to buy a weapon.
Any char should be able to do it. I just refuse to use a sorc with static. Too easy.
I'm looking for suggestions between classic/xpac and toon/builds.
Also keep in mind that synergies didn't exist yet either. So there is greater freedom in distributing skill points.
I'll bump this for a couple days before decided to do it or not
