100 HP? That's uber. This was raid gear too.

Gauntlets of Fiery Might
MAGIC ITEM

STR: +7 DEX: +7 STA: +7
SV DISEASE: +7 SV POISON: +7

My 68 Berserker is 11k HP 1700 AC buffed and in BoT, we had a discussion about tanking. We were in a tower and our Warrior left. The group thought we could not continue. Back in PoP a 10k tank was the highest of the high end. Needeless to say, I tanked fine the rest of the session.

Yeah, and I love to read the comments from 2001. I browse them regularly.
