I remembered I watched a guy streaming playing hardcore on twitch someday.
After he killed 'nightmare' baal, he said my hands were shaking.
I never killed nightmare baal with a melee character.
It is hard to image that for those never play hardcore.
Σ 1.5.0 Announced
Has anyone else considered the character selection / % class base this may (imho will) have? And I'm not saying for any better, or any worse; I simply think (law of large numbers) that people would tend to pick 'Tanky' build vs. glass cannon bowzon for example, if trying out Hardcore first time. Maybe not everyone does this, but I would argue the initial class selection effects are somewhat (not exact math I know) but '2x or double' as the change could cause more Tank builds in Hardcore, while they last, which means more Tank builds in Softcore once they initially die. And everyone dies in Hardcore 
tl;dr I think a lot more defensive tank builds will be seen in both HC and SC. My two cents!

I started playing this a month ago and have 3 characgers stuck on lvl 105-112 as I keep dying. I also never had enough money to rescurrect merc so I am glad that is changing
1) You shall take a look on jewelcrafting and runewords. Most builds can survive in t4-rw ger until 120. That's
where you possibly need upgrade to sets/SU
2) as for gold - there's enough ofsources to get. Not mentioning usual playthru - you have hatred TA that dropping plenty of gold (my summon barb with priestess merc can get up to 25k gold packs... ofc it's with gold-finder equip both on char and merc), IotSS, that have overall high gold drops.
difficulity scaling should be changed. Game starts from easy to hard at the very end. Diablo on normal only kills my necro.
