Anyone creating a "Dakka" clan?

Was working on a Monk in Normal difficulty who was just trucking along...cruising to the point of it being very boring. One long download later and suddenly half my abilities operated differently. Ooookay.

Being able to change the difficulty level on the fly sounded like a godsend, so I moved it up a notch. And wow, suddenly I wasn't cruising anymore! I was in fact struggling a little. After a couple hours of playing, I had enough new gear that I was competing better again. But the game is still giving me a fight, and has renewed my interest in the Monk.

Lots of changes...overall I'm pretty positive on them so far.

This weapon dropped for me recently.

This polearm was crafted by the finest ungulate smiths—its blade fired in the Hellforge, quenched in the rancid milk of the Cow King, and enchanted by that selfsame monarch. In addition to its significant martial benefits, the Bovine Bardiche may also summon forth a veritable army of cows to fight on its wielder's behalf.

How awesome is getting four cow ghosts with bardiches as followers? Even if they aren't very good in combat.
