To those who play(ed) Abysmal Diablo. - redeyedol - 05-05-2004

I've been playing Diablo now for almost 2 years, my main character being a level44 Tank Mage, as well as having several other characters. And whenever I happen to use my lv17 Golem in Hell/Hell, he's not often of great use except as a diversion, activating monsters a few at a time (I also use Elemental, Firebolt and Charged Bolt for this), and to some extent, helping me weaken some enemies. (I also sometimes unleash a Golem to kill off the Golem of a player that thinks he/she could PK me with Guardian and Golem XD) But, as was messing around with the Abysmal Diablo mod, I noticed Golems are horrifyingly powerful. Capable of taking out 3-4 Hell/Hell monsters? This was something I've never seen before. The Golem did rather large amounts of damage, attacked as fast as a Warrior with Speed/Haste, and walked as fast as all 3 character classes. Due to this change in the Golem, I've found him to be far more useful than ever. Golem is now a rather large part of my strategy in Abysmal Diablo.


Now, here are 2 questions I wish to ask, as I cannot create polls, I'll just make you put in a little extra effort typing your responses down. *grins evily*

1. Do you see Golem in Abysmal Diablo as useful as of a spell I do?
2. Do you consider the "new and improved" Golem over-powered?

These two questions have been in my head for a while, I'd just like to see some answers. =P
