Don't forget that a lot of monsters have more than 50% physical resist as well. Just because the global is gone doesn't mean that monsters can't and won't be physical resist. From what I have seen, things are now more physical resistant, it is just customized. Even without drain I still think life/mana steal would have been less effective.

I've been saying this since they announced the 50% global physical resist was removed and the resists were done 'by hand'. They took off the band aid and did the real surgery. I fully expected that removing the band-aid solution would make things harder in the end, and it looks like Blizzard proved me right and went a step further with the drain.

Now, keep in mind that life steal is back on ammies and mana steal is back on rings. This makes it easier to get even more with 1.10 items, so they still added a mechanism to help overcome some of it.

Also heal pots heal more, and seem to double more often as well, so you can get 800 HP out of a superheal now. Pots are cheap too and they drop all over the place, some people will just have to learn to drink them more. Those who are used to playing with just what they find are generally pretty good at drinking them already. :)

It's all just zeroes and ones and duct tape in the end.
