I sent out some requests to people on here so if you see dmdragon then that's me.

Managed to get my Barbarian to 60 and kill Diablo on hell mode solo.

Inferno is going to be rough I can tell.

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

thanks again, glassdragon, for popping in my game, dropping me some good shit and then bouncing. :D

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

Not a problem, I'm already back up to 20 tomes lol

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

I was having the hardest time in hell until my friend picked me up some armor on the cheap in the auction house. He seems to have that auction house pretty well figured out. Now I'm crushing even hordes in hell. I do prefer to play in groups though. However those elites with desecrator, arcane, and poison are borderline unfair.

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

Don't forget fire chains >.<


And I found out how people are getting such good gear to sell. After you hit 60 each elite pat killed gets you a buff that increases your gold and magic find for 30 minutes stacking up to 5 times (after 5 elite pat kills) and it resets your 30 minutes when you kill another. After stacking 5 I checked and I was at 75% magic and gold find.

Killed Asmodeus or whatever his name is and got 4 yellows and 8 blues

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

Pardon my ignorance..."elite pat"?

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

Elite patrol

a set of blue's or a set of blue's with a yellow mob

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

with the crafting auction down....I am looking for tombs of jewel crafting. Before the auction house went down they went for about 1000 gold each. If anyone has some and wants to trade let me know.

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

i got my Demon Hunter up to level 31 yesterday. I have a barbarian at level 21 as well, but the DH is my favorite. I have yet to finish normal yet, I started Act 4 last night. Act 2 was a snoozefest, but holy cow Act 3 punches you in the face with awesomeness right off the bat. That was one epic Act. I just started Act 4 so I can't comment on it yet. I have around 40 hours in the game and am having a great time. Other than Act 2 I have had a blast. I started to find better loot in Act 3 as well.

At level 31 with my Demon Hunter, my DPS is 610. Is that good for where I am at right now? Am I in serious trouble with nightmare around the corner?

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

I would not worry about dps unless you are not taking the down enemies quick enough. I would use the auction house when I found myself taking too long to kill.

I really hope I can finally finish hell soon, I want to start inferno bad...though I have heard this is what happens to monks when you start inferno...

I've finished normal with a barbarian and witch doctor. started normal on my monk. almost finished act 1 of nightmare with my barbarian.

Blizzard released some "fun" facts about the game over the weekend. I thought these were pretty interesting:

• On average players have created 3 characters each
• 80% of characters are between levels 1 and 30
• 1.9% of characters have unlocked Inferno difficulty
• 54% of Hardcore players chose a female character
• The majority of Hardcore deaths (35%) occur in Act I Normal
• The most common level 60 build in the game is only used by 0.7% of level 60 characters of that class (not including Passive diversity)
• The most used runes for each class at level 60 are Barbarian: Best Served Cold, Demon Hunter: Lingering Fog, Wizard: Mirror Skin, Monk: Peaceful Repose, Witch Doctor: Numbing Dart

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

is there a good site out there discussing character builds? i've seen a few but none have really been developed that well yet.

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

Really loving the hell out of this game, with one exception... the random map generator!

In Act II, I explored the entirety of the Desolate Sands map. I explored both quest dungeons and a third random dungeon. When I quit the game immediately after getting to the checkpoint after the second quest dungeon, I came back later in the day to find that walking back to the Desolate Sands everything was changed and that I had to explore the entirety of the map again.

As someone who is obsessive about checking out every area of the maps, this is very frustrating. I figured that once I walked into an area, the game would generate a random map and then that would become MY map until I finished the game. This doesn't seem to be the appropriate way to generate new maps... Essentially invalidating all the progress I've made in my exploring.

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

this is what adds to the longevity. Things are different each time you boot up. it keeps the game fresh. So in reality you can't see everything about diablo because it is constantly changing.

if you only intend to play through the game once and moving on to something else, then I can see where the frustration comes in. however, if you plan on leveling your characters, looting, and playing on higher difficulties -- the random generation is welcomed and applauded.

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

I look forward to the random generation in my second playthrough... I feel like the dice should be rolled every time you enter a new area but that it should stay that way until you start a new game.

Just bought this game today and I'm not going to read 30 pages of posts, so I'm sorry if this has already been discussed.

Why on Earth would this game be online only? Apparently the servers have been an issue right from the start and I was only able to play for like an hour today before I got booted off for "maintenance" and haven't been able to get back on. I honestly couldn't care less about multiplayer and online and all that jazz. I bought this game because it looked cool and I guess I just assumed I wouldn't have to deal with all that multiplayer crap. If I wanted a multiplayer game I would have bought World of Warcraft. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I wouldn't be able to play a game like this because Blizzard is having problems with the server. I just want to play the single player campaign by myself, but at this point I can't even access the game at all.

I've never played a Blizzard game in my entire life and this was a really bad first impression. I just want to play the game.

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

because it prevents piracy. but in doing so it's also preventing everyone from playing.

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

Then they need to get their act together and figure it out. I understand if they made a business decision because piracy was hurting them but it seems like they were so concerned with stopping the piracy that they forgot about making a game that works.

It would be like if McDonald's was having a big problem with people bringing in their own burgers and rather than just stop people from bringing in the burgers, they just closed the restaurant. Actually, a better analogy would be if millions of customers prepaid MCDonald's for their food but since MCDonald's couldn't figure out how to stop people from bringing in their own food, they just closed the restaurant but still kept all the prepaid money.

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

i don't think anyone will disagree with you here. we are all frustrated to be locked out from the game.

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

Analogies usually fail and I don't think either of yours make any sense to be honest. They're not closing anything, they are fixing the servers. If we were to use your analogy then it would be "Everyone prepaid for their food, but because of a problem with one of the grills they had to shut down for a little while to fix them so that you could have the best food you possibly could and not raw meat and also so you didn't have to wait 3 weeks for your food because they are trying to fill a million orders on one grill."

While it is frustrating, they did make it clear that you needed an internet connection to play, it's not like they tried to hide the fact to rip everyone off. And it's also so they can stop people from hacking and cheating, not just piracy.

Tuesday Morning server maintenance, I think it's a staple of all Blizzard's games, not just WoW.

re: Diablo III + Reaper of Souls (multi-platform)
 

I've been trying to save some items from other classes that I find. However, I'm about out of space in my stash locker. Need to save up more money to buy more space.

Usually I sell of the blue items that drop in the game. I've sold a couple yellow items in the auction house but only made a couple thousand gold.
