The "spikiness" of Inferno mobs? There's no "spikiness", it's flat out you die if you get hit in any level past Act I. The way resistances are in this game makes it completely pointless for me to build them. If you can't kite mobs, you die. Period. Even if you can kite them, they'll just use some stupid affix to come up and rape your pomegranate.
I'm just going to take this 4.5m gold and sell it somewhere to try to get back my $60 and never really have to look back. Who knows, maybe a few months down the road this game will be playable.
You pretty much finished the game in less than 3 weeks, which is really fast. I'm still taking it easy and am a couple levels away from unlocking Nightmare. Also, no game is perfect that early at launch. Let Blizzard make the changes needed to make Inferno challenging, and not just a game of hot potato, or a more modern example: rocket tag gameplay. Or if you want another example: I Wanna Be The Guy difficulty. I know I haven't touched Inferno yet, but Inferno from what I know and read is "Nightmare Mode" from Doom, which was MEANT to be very unfair, but eventually people were able to beat Nightmare Mode, and even do speed runs of it.
In a few months, Inferno will either get toned down, or Blizzard will create gear that'll make Inferno bearable.
And besides, have you played Diablo 2? Hell Mode in that game (to this one's Inferno) has you dying in a few hits or even in an instant (due to huge resist penalties that'd make even a fireball take over 1/2 your life away as you start Hell), and it was only with newer gear was it manageable or even turned trivial. I still remembered Hell Cow Levels. God help me if I ever saw a MSLE cow, I'd just run away screaming like a little girl seeing those champions. God help you if the champion is immune to a certain element (giant middle finger to single-element Sorcs) or physical immune (Barbarians cry at the sight of these).
Also, at least you don't drop ALL your gold or lose EXP when you die, or have to corpse run to your body just to recover all your gear (unless you want to just remake the game and grab your body back at town). Sure made gold useless to hoard, and make dying very painful.
Yes I admit I'm a Blizzard fan, but honestly Inferno is nonetheless supposed to be VERY HARD mode. It was either that or have people leave the game because Inferno was TOO easy and complain Blizzard is catering to the casuals. <_<
Any other D2 fans remember THESE?
Immune to Cold
Immune to Fire
Immune to Lightning
Immune to Magic (These creatures won't suffer any damage when attacked with skills that deal magic damage)
Immune to Poison
Immune to Physical (These creatures won't suffer any damage when attacked with melee or ranged physical damage)
Oh the nightmares.
