Yeah, that's another fun point when I play with PUGs - people ask what I'm doing that I'm able to just stand in the middle of giant hordes of things and not appear to take any damage. Usually I'll explain the idea of the build to them (I'm basically sitting around with DSkin up constantly due to Critical Mass, and what few gaps appear are -usually- handled by Frost Nova) when I get a chance. I'm still in A3/4 Hell farm mode because I know I'm still undergear for Inferno, especially resists. Although I've been giving other characters priority at the moment because I want to get them all to sixty and then decide which one I most want to try and push through Inferno with. But the only serious threat I have is a group of Hulking Phasebeasts - they seem to be the only thing that can do enough sheer damage to just flat overwhelm the DSkin and start laying into me. Which really just means I have to play like a mage for a few moments until I can thin the herd instead of standing in the middle of the pack like Billy Bulletproof, so it's not a big deal.
So much fun though, and it's nice to not have to rely on anyone else to tank, because almost without fail any PUG I end up in is nothing but Wiz and DH.

Finally satisfied that this, in fact, a game in the Diablo series.
