combos? You mean everyone using the same builds wanting the same equipment?
No challenge once you hit 80+ with good gear.... my chars can do solo hell baal runs with maxed players, thats how unbalanced the game has become. And the thing is:
1) My barb doesn't even use WW (frenzy + zerk + BOTDs)
2) Sorc ( 800 damage orb + over 5k FB pretty low due to orb )
3) Druid (elemental)
4) Assassin.... well.... I've tried and it takes over 15 min (367% ED elite claws etc)
5) Paladin (NO NEED TO EXPLAIN SINCE ITS POSSIBLE FOR HIM TO HAVE 4 auras on at the same time)
6) Amazon (weaker now, but with a windforce and an aura merc, just use enigma to tele and then put on IAS/ED gear after)
I've played since D1! And I found out that in D1, you spent your entire time trying to shop for better items instead of going for countless MF runs. D2 w/ LOD became a waste of time after the dupes.... but there are mods out there for LOD that are definitely worth it.
