Is it actually possible to drop the CE wings for another player since they are apparently an item you equip?

 

[vumpler]

If there is a 15 level difference between you and someone you are partying with how does that work XP and gameplay wise?

 

[Evlar]

Anybody know if it's safe to delete the mushroom? I still kept it in my stash, even though I beat normal (and some tome).

I have no idea, but for the moment I'm treating it as if it's Wirt's Leg.

EDIT: It's notable that it is Bound to Account...

 

[tjohn86]

Wings and dyes are account bound

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Last question: what are the fallen teeth for? I got a couple of them but don't know what they're for?

I also got some item that said it was unidentified and couldn't be used until it was ID'd?

 

[krameriffic]

Meh.

You can compile the .ahk into any .exe file you want and name it whatever you want. I highly doubt they will ban people for it--they have dupers/hackers/etc. to worry about. I consider it more of an accessibility thing for people with disabilities in their right hand. I'd throw a fit if I ever got banned for the game not being handicapped accessible.


They did say they won't support it or allow it. But never said they will ban like they did previously for the DarkD3 shit.

I hate when companies are unclear about this kind of stuff. I was uncertain for a long time about using the FOV and FPS unlockers for MW3 because it seemed like exactly the kind of stuff that VAC would ban for, but I know a lot less about the automated anticheat systems Blizzard might have in place for this game. I don't consider it a cheat on any level, but when it's a computer system that decides your fate, I don't like to run the risk.

nope, tied to your account.

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

When the game compares a new weapon to the currently equipped weapon (or armor), it only compares base stats, right? So it will always say a 5 dmg weapon is better than a 4 dmg weapon, even if the 4dmg weapon has extreme strength/dexterity bonuses on it? Or does it actually calculate the added benefits in (also things like fire damage, extra armor etc) and then give you the numerical comparisons?

EDIT: In the example of the Boneshatter, is it -7.5 damage BEFORE the +1-3 holy damage and +35 strenght, or AFTER that?

I believe everything is factored in. As you can see, the Armor increase is 2%, which could only be determined by calculating the STR increase in the stats, your current Strength and your current Armor rating.

I didn't know about the angelic wings until today. I bought the C.E because of the art book, soundtrack, skull, sc2 avatars.

I would have paid $100 alone for the angelic wings.

I love that they go so well with the infinite CE only white dye they give you. Blends really well. Awesome.

 

[Narag]

They're an account bound item you activate. Not sure you can drop them for another.

 

[jokkir]

I didn't even realize the CE gives you ingame things too with the addition of the bonus content in the box I probably would have dipped for that instead.

 

[TheDancingWatermelon]

I've been trying to sell my CE key in the b/s/t thread, but all of this discussion of the wings is getting me to consider upgrading my account with it. :lol

 

[Tess3ract]

There's a bet in the blizz office that no one's going to be able to beat inferno until about august

 

[Ezio]

So when do servers come back up

i didn't know either. i bought the CE for the artbook and soundtrack, lol

What class?

I think the teeth are from salvaging right? You will get recipes later that require them for armor and weapons etc. Hold on to them.

The yellow items are awesome! Click on them to identify them. They are like, above average items essentially. They sell well on the AH.

Safe bet if no one can play!

kewel. thanks!

Truly awesome! My newegg order finally shipped today with three day ups shipping. I can't wait!

Somebody in this thread said you need not sure who though or if they were serious.

I don't know when the OT title changed, but I love it.

eh, I wouldn't underestimate this games community. Someone will have that shit beat in no time probably.

August for the first (internal?) run completed on the hardest difficulty...my god.

 

[Vamphuntr]

That DRM sure is efficient. Pirate won't be playing the game for sure since customers can't either.

Yeah it's pretty stupid.

I highly doubt I'll be banned over something so trivial. Besides it's not like you're WASDing the whole way to the bank. You get sick of WASD as you play so you click-to-move quite a bit too.

I'm not worried in the slightest.

Diablo ‏ @Diablo

We're continuing to work on the issue currently affecting the Americas region, and while making progress have no ETA.

 

[Hero]

At the rate of the server stability so far, that would seem like a fair bet.

Do you work for Blizzard I guess?

 

[Cipherr]

lol you should have put that Bush Mission Accomplished picture in this post. I think I would have fallen out of my chair.

 

[FINALBOSS]

So when do servers come back up

I should bash you in the fuckin' mouth.

 

[Teknoman]

i didn't know either. i bought the CE for the artbook and soundtrack, lol

Same here...which i'm scared to use either for fear of spoilers lol.

 

[Kinitari]

You're right, I just remembered that when I equipped a new weapon with the same DPS as the one I had before, it still told me I would have a damage increase in green because the new weapon had dex. Ignore what I said!

 

[TxdoHawk]

I kind of feel like a turret playing as a Wizard. Admittedly I'm not very far into the class, lvl 8 or so. Does this change? Kinda tempted to switch to Barbarian to get a little action.

Ranged damage from afar is your bread and butter, but don't be afraid to (for example) help a Barb out by getting close-ish to a horde of baddies he's fighting, throwing down an offensive Frost Nova, and then falling back. Can be extremely helpful.

 

[Alien Manobo]

Meh.

You can compile the .ahk into any .exe file you want and name it whatever you want. I highly doubt they will ban people for it--they have dupers/hackers/etc. to worry about.

They did say they won't support it or allow it. But never said they will ban like they did previously for the DarkD3 shit.

I was interested in the WASD script so I can incorporate it with the nunchuck into the glovepie script I tweaked for the wiimote. After reading this, I think I'll just stick with using the wiimote as my pointer without direct wasd move control.

yet it'll only be a week

Diablo ‏ @Diablo

Ok, I've been trying to be pretty patient today but this is getting fucking ridiculous.

 

[LiK]

Diablo ‏ @Diablo

yea, no ETA. everyone should just go do something else.

 

[Teknoman]

I hate to keep posting this, but is anyone else still having low music level problems (well back when the game was up anyway)?

 

[SnakeswithLasers]

That DRM sure is efficient. Pirate won't be playing the game for sure since customers can't either.

Pirates will find a way. They'll just create their own servers (pretty sure this happened in WoW).

In the end, it's just paying customers that get screwed.

 

[SUPARSTARX]

I guess it's sleep time.

 

[Tess3ract]

I'd buy the CE but the only thing I want is the WoW pet and wings

Could I make a deal with someone to buy the code and you can keep/sell everything else? I don't want the whole CE

 

[Valnen]

yet it'll only be a week

I wish people would stop saying this, we don't know how long it will take.

 

[Ezio]

I should bash you in the fuckin' mouth.

Heh, do it.

 

[echoshifting]

Ok, I've been trying to be pretty patient today but this is getting fucking ridiculous.

It really is. I've been defending them off and on all day and I'm running on fumes.

 

[mandiller]

Same here...which i'm scared to use either for fear of spoilers lol.

The blu-ray warns you at the start that is contains spoilers so I shut it off, and I only read just past the hero character art in the art book and got something spoiled for me, so I'm not looking at the art book again till I finish the game.

So as a general warning, don't look at the art book or blu-ray until you beat the game.

 

[Zeliard]

Wings and dyes are account bound

nope, tied to your account.

They're an account bound item you activate. Not sure you can drop them for another.

Dammit, plan foiled.

I bet you guys are really thrilled. With your awesome, flowing, glorious angelic wings that spring from your backs like liquid streams of heavenly light.

Ya bastards.

I need to spice my Witch Doctor up. He's a fairly gangly fellow.

 

[scorpscarx]

I hate to keep posting this, but is anyone else still having low music level problems (well back when the game was up anyway)?

Sort of, but my main thing right now is stuttering. Disabling in game AA and forcing with your hardware works makes mine run a tad better. Though I read somewhere that you cant hardware force AA in this game...

 

[Vamphuntr]

yea, no ETA. everyone should just go do something else.

We're complaining... I think this definitely falls into the "something else" category ;P

Diablo ‏ @Diablo

Son of a beech. How long does it take to reboot a server?

I mean, I guess they probably want to know why it crashed to begin with, but still.
