I think there's a Diablo 3 cake in here somewhere, but I can't find it.

I think I can forgive you now.
Damn
 
This game is really fucking good.

That is all.
 
but you said anywhere.. please inform me so I can shop at the correct ones.

It's not calculus. You just need to patiently explain to the manager (face to face) what is going on. You explain that you don't want your money back and in fact you already know what you want to buy with it, and you usually pick up something else just so you need to pay a bit more.

???
Play a game created by developer that gives a fuck about it's customers.
 
does weapon speed have an effect on casting speed?

and are two-hand weapons preferable to one-hand weapons as a sorcerer (due to higher spell damage?)
 
Anyone want a D3 Guest Pass while I'm unable to play the game and still sane?

I only got two in my CE box. I thought we were supposed to get more but...it is what it is (to use a phrase I hate).

Edit: PM me/will update when they're all gone.

Edit 2: 1 left.


Edit: All gone. Enjoy em (when the servers finally come back up)
 
I haven't read any wizard impressions in this thread so far, which is kinda surprising. I guess it's not that popular of a class

I had plans on being a wizard first until the DH was revealed. Then I went back and forth between the two.

That lasted from two years ago until literally 9am this morning when I was clicking on both the wizard and DH over and over again, not able to decide which I wanted to play.

I finally realized I really like thigh high boots and played DH.


If you had a girlfriend like that, and you didn't treat her well, you don't deserve such an amazing lady.

Though I haven't commented yet, that isn't fair. My wife is super fucking awesome and geeky and wayyyyy too good for fat bear me and I treat her like a queen.

This game is tied to your fucking b.net account dude, there's no way to "remove" it and not have it anymore. So you're basically saying that you want to commit fraud and get a refund for a product that you still own? It's just not going to fucking happen. You're making yourself look really silly.

I have patiently explained to managers in the past and I always get "since its open we can only exchange it for the same item"

seems crazy that they would do it for you.

But what if she cheated on you, had nothing to talk about , was a smoker, had tons of credit debt, crazy ex boyfriends, and was just an all around bitch aside from this one act of kindness?

Check all inside the box. I had a couple game cards that became dislodged form their resting place and were wedged between the cardboard and the plastic housing inside.
 
At least I'm home from work.

Hey, my ex-girlfriend!

Disagree.

I don't get it. This game is nothing new. The graphics are horribly outdated. The combat is fairly rinse & repeat? What does everyone see in this stuff. The story is riddled with cheese. :( I will only concede that the scope for customisation is wider then typical but not the widest seen in these types of games.

And it's not like an MMO where you can match your progression against everyone elses that you see because you're fined to you and your friends. :(
 
So uh, did anyone get their class sigils from the Darkness Falls Heroes Rise thing? I didn't see them when I tried customizing my banner earlier. =/
 
does weapon speed have an effect on casting speed?

and are two-hand weapons preferable to one-hand weapons as a sorcerer (due to higher spell damage?)

1. from what I've seen, yeah.

2. depends on what kind of spells they are. I'd probably guess that spells with cooldowns will see a benefit from big slow weapons.

Yes and kinda.

Your spell damage is related to your weapon damage, and the cast speed is just your attack speed. For channeled spells like ray of frost your attack speed determines how long each 'tick' is.

So higher attack speed does cause you to spend more arcane power. On the other hand, signatures are free, and there are a few options available that let you get AP back for hitting people (with signatures or with crits).

But yeah, probably a two-hander is often going to be better for wizards damage-wise, early game, than a one-hander and a shield. On the other hand, shields have great armor. And orbs always have +dmg affixes, as well as other useful affixes. Personally, I never found a two-hander that seemed worth equipping, and now that I have decent orbs I haven't found one that even does more damage per swing than my one-hander + orb. Early game I used shields and now I use orbs. Orbs are especially nice when you can start putting gems in them.
 
Man, end shit looks insane . . .


. . . but for now my doctor has no shirt on with a drooping potbelly. :/

At level 20, I have the fifth armor set in that video (~6.5 hours of play). It won't take you long to look better than any other class.

Oh so you're working your way through inferno at the moment?

Ha...actually I never thought of that.

The CD is still in the drive.

O.o

I was assuming if I took out the CD, I wouldn't be able to play the game.

BRB


Christ...nevermind. I wasn't actually trying to commit fraud. I just don't like being subjected to bullshit DRM. I miss the good old days of code wheels and...you know...not having the CD in the drive meant you couldn't play the game.
 
Anybody else have similar thoughts about the Wizard? What about other classes?

Wizard has been nothing but amazing. They can aoe really well so if you're wanting to go out for gold/item runs, you should be able to solo that very easy onward. Single target is still kinda/sorta iffy but with later runes, I think that will change. And Yoshi was right about that whirlwind ability for wizard. Worthless.
 
Quoting myself from the last thread.

My Witch Doctor's awesome

Poison Dart (Splinters)
Haunt (Consuming Spirit)
Spirit Walk
Plague of Toads (Explosive Toads)
Soul Harvest (Swallow Your Soul)

Jungle Fortitude

My strategy when I see a group of enemies is to Spirit Walk, quickly run into the center of them, cast Soul Harvest, then spam the hell out of Explosive Toads. If I haunt a few of the enemies beforehand my health regenerates like crazy and I have the 20% reduced damage already from my passive... it's SOOO good! The toads wreck everything, especially when I have 5/5 Soul Harvest. Poison Darts are my single target nuke obviously.
When I posted that I was level 16 or so, I'm level 25 now and I play completely differently.

I wasn't planning to play with pets but the Gargantuan is so fucking bad ass. For spells, Firebomb and Acid Cloud are amazing and have basically replaced my Poison Darts and Toads respectively.

Zombie Charger is kind of shit but Spirit Walking into enemies and throwing a rotting zombie at them along with some Acid Clouds is fun. I like the passive 20% damage reduction from poisoned enemies effect so it works nicely. I was using Locust Swarm instead but the mana cost is just too high and zombie is quicker and longer range - they usually die before the swarm has time to spread at this point in Normal mode so that effect is all but nullified outside of small scattered groups (which are easy to deal with anyways)

Congrats, the game isn't for you.

What you're saying isn't wrong per se, but just it's not your game.

I dont see mine either...

My wife has great timing. She interrupts my "DIABLO" day to ask me for help to watch my daughter for an hour. Just as I log off the servers go down! (now I look good for the wife, and wouldnt be able to play anyway!)

ACT I spoilers

Totally called Cain dying, and Tyreal being the meteor was a bit of a shock. Only died twice so far, once on the butcher, and once at the beginning of ACT II.

Cant wait for the servers to come back up!
