Mastering a character class

[Fragbait]

That's why my favorite mage was always the rogue class!

For me, a good player was never about what they could accomplish, but about how they could go through the "little" parts of the game- if they used terrain well, were able to adapt to the monsters or layout of a level smoothly, and played cooperatively (also adapting to the characters they played with), then they were an excellent player.  Those aren't really things you could measure or that make good reports on Diablo forums, though.

I'd have too agree here, absolutely.

Yet there is one thing left for me to say:

Even if one is 'good' in SP, that doesn't necessarily mean 'good' in MP.
I learned this the hard way when I dared to leave my safe cavern and try B.net what must have been almost a year ago. I just wasn't trained in coop play, standing all in the way and catching guardian fire of my buddy, etc. Took me some hours to adapt!

I also guess that the 'goodness' of a player can't be measured by any tests. It can at the utmost be experienced when playing with him. And then, still, Classic Diablo isn't about lightning-quick reactions and perfect aiming, it just ain't the type of game where you can judge a player by his physical 'goodness'. I'd rather call a 'good' player like this:

'Gee. He really knows the ropes...'
