Diablo II? This is how threads get derailed, right here.

Like how corpse explosion went from godly to worthless in Diablo II?
Though, as much as I was annoyed at the balance rollercoaster Diablo II was, I think the devs of WoW have been getting better at balance. Still get wtf moments from time to time when looking at the beta patchnotes, but most adjustments seem more reasonable (and not of the godly->nigh worthless in a single patch variety).
Side note: Never played necro before the CE nerf happened, but it did seem a bit too over the top. And it's probably one of the more drastic examples of overreactive Diablo II nerfs.
