I love how an answer here is "break out your credit card." So they made a game hard to the point you can't play it at the top levels without spending more on gear than on the game itself. You got a job - or do you spend your mom's money on video games?
If you want to do that have a blast, but I'm not interested in paying funds for items and will not do it. I am interested in information for those of us who find or buy ghetto gear.
I'm still spanked - tried to reform with various passives, tried shock pulses, lightning (even that walking crap), domes, all the twisters, all the comets (even cold) and still can't kill in level 3 act 1 (and I used to do pony runs inferno). My gear has no name-brands, but has about 1.75 aps, 50k dps, 7-800 unbuffed resists, 130-140 max arcane, over 20 APOH...and I'm still unable to do a thing.
(ok that's not true - I can handle purely melee boss packs)
I also have 60 DH, monk, barb et al...but this is about wishing I could play a wiz.
I'll read to see if someone finds a feasible build or wait for the absurd items to drop in price, but perhaps the goal was to save server space by having me ditch the game. If so, success - play down from hours a day to 10 minutes or less (to test builds I see here, fail, quit). I've gone back the last 5 pages and tried each and every build someone posted the link to - no ability to kill boss packs reliably in act 1 at dif setting to 1-3 (ok sometimes 5, but I get annoyed).
Yeah I'm bitching.
Man just stick to mp1... I can do mp4-5 (5 is pushing it tho), dont think Ill play higher than mp2 normally tho... being much faster is nicer than being able to do higher mp levels..
