The AC levels and number of sockets on items is way better in NM. but, I only got as far as the end of ActII before it got to rough. I went to the beggining of ActI on it. And, for some reason it got so bad that I was losing Experience points from dying faster than I could earn them!! :o
The worst where the Dung Beetles! Even with %80 Lightning Resistance. I hit one of the uniques 2 times and it's lightning it puts out when you hit it killed faster than I could pop a rejuve potion!
And, one of the Soul Eaters who regenrates the Skeletons has such a powerful poison breathe that he nearly emptied my lifebowl with one breathe even though I had a %90 Poison resistance and some heavy duty Life Replenish!
But, you will find way more of the higher socketed items and way better Armor with higher AC on them. And, I fould a few more in the way of Runes. And, with the exception of the Cube. You get to do the quests over again and get the same bonuses Again. :D
Warning. Everytime you switch from Normal to Nightmare. You lose any of the Automaps you've done and have to start those over again!!! Jim http://groups.yahoo.com/group/simthemedmain/
