#$&!!#… I'll have to go back to wire-bound ...thanks for the clarification.

Yep! You do.
Didn't even mention the best part yet: I found the new unique that replaced the Gladiator's Ring. I had to stop playing because I was laughing so hard. VERY appropriate...

Totally sure: I was about level 16-17 then and just replaying Normal/Cats because I didn't want to move on before I had learned Heal. (Still couldn't beg, steal, find or buy that book.. I’m 26 now, go figure...)
IIRC, in HF:Fixed the “dropability” of some uniques – rings especially, not that it did me any good so far – was modified. Maybe that's the reason?

ok, I was unclear there: Not the rate my bow *can* fire, more like the rate *I* can fire:
What I usually do, if I have a secure position (choke point/door or just enough distance) is just fire into a mob until everything stops moving. Given enough damage, normally nothing, or at least not enough, breaks through to (ugh) hit me because they get stunned in my line of fire. If I hold the shift key, I stand my ground and don't accidentally move away from the position I want/need to hold AND I don't have to interrupt my rapid fire, because I can acquire a target while shooting. So my bow and rapid firing is also – sort of – my shield.
I'm just not sure what to replace that tactic with.
I'm ESPECIALLY not sure that not using the shift key won't lead to me running into even more mobs.

EDIT:
“mob” is of course a relative term.
Outside of Church/Cats) my comfort zone is
3 BK (not near me)
or
3 Lava Maws (preferably very near me)
or
4 horned demons (not charging)
or
1 witch (I never realized how much magic HURTS without resists)
or
6 Overlords (they're slow...)
or
any conceivable number of anything behind a choke point/still offscreen

and -of course- 1 Diablo Wink
