Yeah well I don't build characters for 'the whole game' unless I'm playing offline personally. I just specialize them for certain zones etc. This Barb was just designed to smash P1 Trav because Find Item gives you max loot even at P1, which makes HRs piss easy to get at Trav. And goldfind was good for a long time.
Um, I have a slight objection there, hrs are not just that piss easy to get at trav, it's like , during a hardcore season, I may do like 500-1000 runs, and I consider myself lucky if I find one. This is though on players 1 in public b net, but you get my point. It's like the game notes ark, avgn sees nothing picking up a gorse, and he says, have you ever tried lofting a horse? Not that easy. Or lest, three horses and two oxen?? Noahs so goddammit strong, he outs the hulk to shame.
Same thing in d2.... hrs are not the easy to find... I've found perhaps max ten during my lifetime. And I I sider myself lucky.
