Okay, I've finally gotten D2 to work again on this dinosaur, and to put all my comments in one:
Your suspension off TPK was... Bleh. Just bleh.
In regards to the mod itself - great stuff, despite the fact that I somewhat miss some of the Median2k6 skill combos.
I've gotten a sorc to Act 2, and may comment on that character later... Otherwise...
I've also been running a meleezon. The idea is to recycle the old melee-sorc Hex + Overpower...
However, I'm at somewhat of a loss for skill distributions.
1) I'm obviously not investing into any of the bow skills. However, Death Metal, and Death Core are both in one of the bow trees. Are they worth an investment? Can they be used with a melee weapon in hand?
3) Roughly how many points should Retailate get?
3) Lionheart and Radience seem to be pretty useless for a Retribute/Retaliate meleezon. Would they be worthwhile, if I made a good investment into the two spell trees?
4) How is magic missle at all useful? 16-33 damage, 1 bolt at level 1?
5) How do Blood Star/Blood Storm do in terms of damage?
My plan as of now is something along the lines of:
4-6 Retaliate
1-6 Retribute
3+ Bloodlust
Max Mana Sweep
Max Storm Touch
3+ Hex
1+ Death Coil
1+ Mana Coil
Max? Blood Storm
A point in Lionheart and Radiance?
Is that kind of build workable?
