Was just yesterday pondering about this subject. Another great guide, and again, just when I needed it! Time to try out my Perma-Archon wizard!

I'll be honest, this series was what pushed me over and actually made me pick up Diablo 3. I've really been enjoying it so far and just finished the campaign for the first time with my brother.

That said, are you planning on doing more class specific guides in the near future? I enjoy learning about how these various stats function but I'm sort of waiting with baited breath for further opinions on the Witch Doctor.

Anyway, hope you keep it up.

Glad you're enjoying the series! I have a whole backlog of Diablo content to write up - it's just a matter of prioritizing. So I'd love to get feedback on direction! I've been meaning to make a guide on the Jade Harvester Witch Doctor for some time, now...

I just use Leoric's crown with a diamond in it and whatever CD reduction I get by chance. I usually hover around 30%, and I can live with that.

Some builds require more. zdps monks need as much as they can get, and most sader builds aim for ~55% for full akarat uptime. They changed running barbs so CDR isn't their most important stat anymore, and DH need only a little to function pretty well, so most things are fine with just incidental CDR.
