Wow. Sounds like the skill synergies thing backfired. :(
In multiplayer play and higher levels, they make for interesting character builds and can be quite powerful when done correctly -- Hammerdin, Lagomancer and Light-Sorc come to mind. The problem is when you consider the increase in difficulty that was needed to compensate for the skill buffs and that most new players don't even know where to put skill points, it leaves little room for error.

I am about to re-install Diablo 2 so I can play with my daughter. She needs to have played one of the greatest games of all time.
Oh, so this is how parents set their kids on the down spiraling path to mediocrity!

This. If I have any say in it my kids won't even touch a computer.

...patch...
The way the melee builds were buttfucked in Hell mode is unbelievable - from physical resistances to insta-kill bugs that are still present (like fire enchanted bug in Nightmare multiplayer games) and some are new. In order to be able even kill shit and not to be ran over, all melee builds need only the best equipment which is absolutely impossible to get in one playthrough.
Bah, we were playing Codex coop for quite a while and when I finally collected loot for barb., we stopped playing.
Blizzard bitches want you to get hooked.

Synergies as others have mentioned railroad your character. Although some skills would be pretty darn good like the Paladin's Holy Shock that gives a lot of elemental damage. I don't think this damage is reflected by the melee curse cast against you.
