I'm not quite sure about this (and I'm sure adeyke or someone else can confirm it), but I believe the returned damage is affected by physical resistance. If that's true, the 1010% returned damage would get scaled down depending on the resistance.

This was done way back in the classic D2 days (I think it used to be called a sadist?), and if you don't mind getting beat up, it should be fine. Ranged characters would be the major problem, but that could be handled fairly easily with a synergized Fist of the Heavens. Or you could go the Ranger route and get a bow/crossbow and plunk away.

One thing I would recommend is getting lots of recovery gear, especially if you want to deal with ranged monsters. You can't fight back if you're in recovery all the time.

Edit: Cross post with adeyke. And it is confirmed that the returned damage is affected by resistances.
Don't worry. You won't feel a thing...until I jam this down your throat!
