First Hardcore Inferno Belial Kill (by a Barbarian, too)

[Quark]

That's just it though, Vortex is completely unavoidable for ranged classes, and when you are as fragile as the DH is and everything 2 shots you, it makes playing pretty pointless.

I stopped reading here. Vortex has a maximum range, as does Jailer.

Edit: Bolty, two quick points.
1) Why not rejudge when 1.0.3 hits? In the meantime, everything before Act 2 Inferno I find very fun.
2) Must get the gear to advance sounds astoundingly like ... WoW. Except it's not making me log in and do freaking daily quests every day to get a little token that says "here, buy this item from a vendor".
