Inferno Belial – Demon Hunter

I’ve had a lot of requests for Boss Fight guides, and Belial is the first installment in the set. As you know, Belial is the end boss of Act II and one of the bosses you can die on easily if you don’t understand the mechanics behind the fight. Once you reach him in Inferno, […]

Demon Hunter Farming Build

It’s time to sit down and take a look at the various skills and runes available to help us farm in the live version. You can literally sit for hours looking at the Battle.net Skill Calculator, tinkering with Skill Runes and different active and passive skill combinations. What’s the best Demon Hunter farming build?

Demon Hunter Stats Preview
