Many asians do one thing that I have yet to see westerners do on d2. They build sorces with hella vita and dex for life/blocking and they then only max all the shields, energy/static/etc... They then equip their sorces with uber godly ele dmg weapons, yet they must be melee, no offensive skills allowed what-so-ever, they basically build godly melee show duelers and see who has the best melee sorce, this is omg so so fun yet i have not seen it done by westerners as of yet.
