barely beat the butcher on hell, actually needed help from a friend to do it. Mobs are getting insanely tough, especially the blue/gold ones. I would have liked to play today, solo, but I cant play single player cause the servers are down. :/

I know its killing me, I just got into hell mode and the servers went down. I got a small taste of it though. I definitely need some more DPS!

All I do know is that on normal difficulty, after I got that ability, there was zero challenge until I reached Diablo. Anytime I'd reach a decent sized mob or one of the "special" versions of the monster, all I had to do was go Archon and they are all dead nearly instantly, then I'd wander for the rest of the minute destroying anything in my path. The Act III boss may be weak, but even so I shouldn't be able to stand in one place, use one of my abilities and still win in under a minute. :dunno
On a side note, before I beat the game I thought I would want to play through it over and over again like I did the previous Diablo games, but after beating it I now have no interest in doing so. Not sure why since I did enjoy the game.

Archon makes you even weaker than you were. So if you're a DPS wizard rocking Glass cannon and you turn to Archon you'll be feeling the pain. I was able to play through Normal, NM, hell and get into Inferno and then it was boring. Too much grinding too fast with not enough variation. I'll probably come back to it but I just got into two games Beta's super early and I'm pretty sure there goes all of my time lol.

The butcher was tough on hell, but still doable for me (wizard) but Belail was impossible. Azmodan/Diablo were doable on Hell as well but I need space to use my abilities as a wizard and Belail's enclosed area was really hard on NM and almost impossible on Hell.
The blue/golds are hit or miss for me. If I get them in an open field even if they have jailer/waller/arcane/mortar/shield/illusion I can survive no problem. If they however have all of that and are in tight spaces, it can become an issue. It also depends on what abilities they have. In hell there's a gold ability where all the mobs around them can't die until the gold dies. My goodness good luck with that. Fighting that gold mob I felt like that barbarian dude who beat inferno solo, whose fight with Diablo lasted over an hour.

I think DPS is hugely important but by the time you start rolling in Hell and after that inferno, you need to start focusing on DPS and resist gear. Mobs in Act IV Inferno do 500k damage to wizards, so you need resists and armor to survive after 1 hit. Even then you'll still run into mobs that 1 hit you. They wrote a blog post about how they are going to get rid of the 1 hitting crap but for right now it's still prevalent. So start building up your resist gear!

I was a DPS wizard rocking glass cannon and I did so much more damage then with any of my other abilities. I don't see how 1000% dps from a constant attacking beam for a full minute can possibly be weak. Who knows, maybe part of the glitch is that I was doing 10000% damage, all I know is that enemies that would take 4-5 hits from my strongest attack were instantly vaporized when I went Archon. When I unlocked it, the game went from challenging to a joke.

What's your current Damage and HP?
I'm also talking about NM/Hell/Inferno, not normal. In NM/Hell/Inferno mobs have exponentially more HP and do exponentially more damage.
