Pre-Inferno A3 in a nutshell:
1) Equip a ranged attack.
2) Faceroll.
Seriously - the ranged threats for the act include low hp skeletal archers, fallen shaman packs, icy quill rats, succubi, and the one actual dangerous one, hulking phasebeasts. Note that Ghom, Siegebreaker, and Azmodan are all significantly more threatening to melee toons as well. Apparently A3's resemblence to pre-1.10 A5 D2 goes deeper than just terrain. Wall-to-wall melee threats, nearly a pinata party for ranged characters.
