The main thing is the ridiculousness of boss packs. They're EVERYWHERE, and they were buffed so much I just groan whenever I see one (though in Hell, you'll usually run into 2 or 3 at the same time :( ) The gulf between regular monsters and packs has increased instead of decreased, and it really sucks. Is this the only way Blizz knows how to increase difficulty? With the insane regen, MASSIVE HPs, and the borrowed traits minions get from their leader ala Cold Enchanted, Mana Burn, etc., they've replaced difficult with retarded. MAYBE if they cut max Minions per boss to 3 or 4, it wouldn't be so bad, but packs of 12+ Venom Lords with their new Inferno and speed is just lame.
