Are Rare weapons anything special? Should I vendor it, put it in my bank, give to my companion? So far I've just been selling all my loot.



I was looking around for an auction house in the town before I quit but never found it. I guess I'll look into that tomorrow.
Sell? Are you mad? CRAFT! CRAFT SON! CRAAAAFT!
 
Got an autographed copy from the launch event, was fun but exhausting.

Looks very nice :)

How was the live event in the flesh ? I saw the youtube feed and it seemed sorta fun if not a bit awkward at times.

It's not in the town, it's before you get into the game, in your character screen. You can access the AH there :p. Once you figure out how to use it, it's pretty straight forward.
 
Christ, you know.. I haven't bothered with the followers at all. Maybe its about time I check them out. I had one with me in Act2 for a bit
But she was some sort of 1500 year old enchantress and had a lot of dialog, so maybe thats just a mandatory companion.

Yeah she's the last one of the three you get. The same actually happened for the previous two - they fought with you for a bit and now you can 'hire' them. It really helps for solo play - try the templar.
 
So far it's been pretty fun. I know normal difficulty is supposed to be easy, but this game doesn't seem like it will have a fun learning curve.

The moves you have and don't have make it so the game is pretty mindless. I know I'll die when it gets harder, but I just foresee a lot of cheap deaths in the future.

Oh my god.. I never even realized that, thats actually pretty cool.

Wings+Diamond Armor looks really cool.


Wow, best screenshot I have seen. I am so gonna replicate that when I roll a Wizard.
 
First time of the day to attemp this game and BAM servers are down. So disappointed. I have to be on a conference call at midnight and nothing to do until then :(
 
I want to know what they do to the servers. I mean wtf is maintenance? Clearly the issue is their bandwidth coming in, right? It isn't like they are patching Windows on their servers or rewriting authenticating scripts. All they are doing is resetting the servers.
 
OK, while we're on the topic... Level up the artisan as fast as possible or no?

Nah, he quickly starts making things that you can't equip yet. Keep him around your level if you like, but right now I decided to not invest too heavily into him. My spare money goes into the AH, for anywhere from 500-2500g I can get pieces of equipment that are yellow and blow anything I could make out of the water. Mind you, I only just hit level 13 before servers died - I assume that will change eventually.

Rebooting a server takes a bit longer than just resetting your computer. ;)

Still a terrible situation.
 
Well shoot, so I got the first achievement and now it's gone for good?
You will probably get it again at some point, counter is probably jacked up for that one. I got most of the ones I lost playing a new char with friends. I imagine they will be attempting to fix that at some point but who knows when.
 
damn even their website is down now.

A lot of times its this.
 
So when I get my C.E, my current char won't be able to rock the angel wings?

You will roll an alt, who will automatically have the CE items in their bag. You will put them in your shared stash box, then log back into your main character and loot them from the box. Then you can delete the alt. :D
 
So I broke down and made a Barbarian character. I ALWAYS play as a barbarian in all of these games because everything else seems like it would be hard :(. I am such a weenie. Because of this I named him Cuddles :)

OK, that's what I presumed. I had JUST opened the artisan shop up when I logged out, so haven't had time to tinker with it myself.
