I believe we're going to make it quest + farm on non-hardcore modes (normal nightmare etc)
I don't know if we'll not allow hardcore playing, or just add in a disclaimer to not use it.
It should have most of the cc's in it that work properly up to a certain level. Dunno about runes or companions
I would run it in hardcore as is unless it's completely incompetent. It's always a take your chances proposition and as long as you pick your spot and gear appropriately you have to like your chances or you shouldn't afk it. I realize certain packs suck more than others and it's random but you knew that going in and if you guys have the disclaimer option I'll still run hardcore and pick my spots.
