I think that besides fighting tactics, players must also put alot more thought into their equipment as well. More planning before act bosses, more shopping to get decent(well rounded) equipment, crafting/cubing to stay up to par.
Unless you twink, I see players having to actually balance their equipment, rather than just blow through the game till NM act3 and mf meph till they can fully equip in uniques/sets.
I recently fought duriel on players 8 with a untwinked necro and a shock bear(shock bear has spent no stat points in str, and necro has only put more than 1 skill point in bonewall). It was really a fight for our lives. We had to retreat twice to town for refueling, but we managed without dying.
The new danger level is appreciated. A good change IMHO.
