Actually I think this has as much to do with the proliferation of casters as the difficulty does.

Aside from that, just wanted to say that I really don't want to get on the OP's case here. As I mentioned, I tried playing a warrior on live in 2001 (I think Velious was out), made it to 31, then got frustrated and rolled a caster. So, it's something that's happened before, at least.

I actually only ever met one guy who leveled to 60 on a melee untwinked. At one point, I had been able to actually afford an FBSS with funds from my wizard, so I went to revisit the melee. Turned out this friend of mine had no haste at 55 or so, so I took it off my twink and gave it to him. I wasn't worthy.

My other friends played druids, wizards, and enchanters. A couple of guys played melees early on, but wound up quitting.

I guess my point is that it seems like the situation here isn't all the different from what it was on live.

...

BTW, if any non-twinked melee ever sees me around in game, feel free to ask for help of any kind. Bind, invis, duo, bandages, whatever. You're more manly than me.
