I agree with you Lemming. I feel though that Ghast was being deliberitley sarcastic to me and not Blizzard when he made the 'obvious' statements. Trying to make me feeling stupid by running my obvious sentence over a great deal of statements.

Ghastmaster's point, I think, is a valid one: not all differences from D1 were because some feature was broken. I find it unlikely the designers of D2 had Black Death's loathed lifestealing in mind when they designed penalties in D2. I also happen to think the most likely explanation of Black Death's HP-stealing ability in D1 was that it was added with single player in mind, where such a penalty is inconsequential since the character does not persist beyond a single play-through.
