How are you holding up in hell difficulty? Is it hard?

Hell is hard. B)

The Fire Druid had major trouble with the combination PI/FI bosses until he was able to give his mercenary a Reaper's Toll. And, as is normal, some areas were a piece of cake and others were bloody dreadful (those Imps in Act V were well....a nightmare ;) ) On the other hand, bowling for monsters in the Arcane Sanctuary was huge fun.

The Wind Druid is a bit of a different story. He has just arrived in Hell, and he is a deliberate cripple, as he is played only in a weekly team game where we have major restrictions on how we build our characters. :ph34r: He dies a lot. :rolleyes: But so do we all. :) Prevailing anyway is a wonderful feeling.

My observations about the strength of a Wind Druid were more based on playing beside a friend who has one. He does incredibly well. The pure Wind Druid (well, with Oak Sage and a Grizzly, but no Fire Skills) is, based on my observations, stronger than a pure Fire Druid.

Edit: Ravens ! I forgot to mention Ravens. A single point in Ravens with skill adders can be a fine thing. The hit blinds target is a nice thing to have going for you when there are ranged attackers out there that you cannot get to dealing with right away.
