I've found playing with a wizard/wd/dh to be acceptable. It's a bit slower but more fun and still just as doable. I rarely if ever go above 2 players though.

same here. i was having the same discussion with some friends at work today. it seems completely backwards that an online only, co-op game is SOOO much easier to just solo in inferno.
also, it's basically impossible to tank in 3/4 player inferno games.
my monk can get up to 50k life, 11k armor and 700 resist all and still get 1/2 shot if i try and actually tank..... so i end up kiting which basically turns me into a wasted character slot. any progression i've made in inferno (currently @ izual) has been solo.


What is your life on hit? It's not just about your effective HP (resist/armor/dodge/hp). It's also about your regeneration. You can sit at 1600 life on hit with 2 attacks per second affordably which means 3200 life every second.

when you say "I" do you play alone?

solo i can rape with ease act 1 + 2 inferno, when I play with mates (full game) , we can barely handle any blue/rare mob group in act2. pretty frustrating, considering the fact that our tanks have somewhat ~ 50k hp, 30kish dmg and ~750+ resis with shields 20% block chance already.

but the game is meant to be played with friends.. jeez this just doesnt want to work


Yeah I mean solo. I haven't really tried Act 2 yet, just wanted to make sure I was in the right area in terms of stats to attempt it. Anyone have any viable builds I could use for A2 inferno onwards?

edit: also as far as playing with friends go, is there any build I could be using to make myself viable? As I assume I'm going to get 1 shotted repeatedly.

900 life on hit with 2.33 attacks/second

Thank you all for the wealth of information on this thread.

I'm a monk in the process of farming for better gear. I can solo act 1, but I want to be able to farm act 3... I'm planning on skipping act 2 altogether.

Right now, I'm sitting at (all approximate numbers):
28k hp
760 res
5.1k armor
1000 dex
1000 vit
10k dps
0 LPH

I think I do way too little damage, so my question is, what kind of stats should I be looking for in a weapon? I have a limited amount of gold (5mil?), so better stats means lower damage. Can you suggest a weapon to look for? Should I buy a 1.1k fist? or should I go for a 900 with ias/dex/vit? what about loh?

Well, there is a serious exception on act3. I can't for the life of me get past rakkis bridge to get to the chest farming spot. The mobs are just countless, the elites as well, and they swarm from every direction. Frustrating.,,

rakkis is exact where i want to farm :/

That place just seems impossible. Tons of elemental range damage, plus those tunnel digging long hand butt-impalers that 1shoot you with style.
