Here let me highlight my post this time so people who want to be added to the battletag list will actually read it instead of scrolling by.

IF YOU WANT TO BE ADDED TO THE BATTLETAG LIST YOU WILL WANT TO INCLUDE ALL 5 FIELDS (THAT INCLUDES GAF NAME, BATTLETAG, LOCATION, CLASS, AND DEATH MODE [HARDCORE/SOFTCORE]) INTO YOUR POST, OR BETTER YET PM ONE OF THE LIST CONTRIBUTORS (MYSELF, ZEALOUSD, NACIRE, HENRYHSH, AND CARBONATEDFALCON).

*cough*

Well add Softcore to me, already in the list. I am not prepared to die forever.

I'm hoping someone can clear up duel wielding and weapons for me in regards to the monk. The initial skill (fists of fury) says it does 110% of the weapon damage. Therefore if I have a 10 damage weapon fists of fury should hit for 11.

Now there are 2 types of damage, there's the damage that is listed on your weapon and the total damage dealt which takes into account your dexterity and other modifiers.

My first question is whether fists of fury does damage based on the number displayed on the weapon or the number after dexterity and item bonuses are added in?

The second is, if you are duel wielding is your damaged based on each individual weapon or the total damage done? Like is the first "fist" attack based off your first weapon and the second "fist" hit based off your offhand weapon? If its based on the main total of both weapons combined, what's the point of even duel wielding besides getting whatever stats from the offhand weapon? wouldn't it be better just to get a ton more armor from a shield?

Does weapon speed even matter? It seems the monk when using fists attacks at the same rate no matter the weapon I use. Is it all just for stats now?

Duel wielding also decreases the damage each weapon does right? If the monk isn't swinging both weapons and just using fists, wouldn't you just want one high damage weapon?

Can anyone help me out?
 
alright so

ive heard about the game gettin common mp server latency issues but in single player, due to the always online DRM and whatnot

what does this mean to countries that are far away from the servers? anyone from latin america with some input?

i ussually get terrible lag for US based servers in MP games, so im wondering how would this affect my game..

After paying one hundred bucks it'd be cool if I could just play when I want to.

My solution: only let people with CE accounts play on heavy usage days.
Click to expand...

Ehh..no. Your extra $40 went towards other cool shit. I could have picked up the CE but I just wanted D. Your $40 went to new toys not towards server maintenance. ;)

Cool, I'll probably do that then.
Will it add extra stress to my CPU/Graphics Card if keep my laptop closed and use an external cinema display?
Click to expand...

If your laptop has vents for when it's open, or if you're playing at a higher resolution (if your laptop is 720p, and your cinema is 1080, for example).

Lets be real, Its overpowered as hell. Im using the hell out of it, but its going to get a hatred cost increase. Put 80 mobs in a hallway with a melee in your party and you can spam that indefinitely if you have the passive that restores hatred when someone in your party picks up a health globe. Double Chakrams are absurd right now.
Click to expand...

I don't use Chakrams personally. I use entangling shot (Chain Gang) and elemental arrow, with the passives that increase damage on snared targets as well as when they're far away from you. I have Evasive Shot, vault, caltrops and multi-shot on Q W E R. I love it. :D

I don't know where the servers are in Australia, but the damn thing is unplayable at the moment. No literally, I could log in, I just had horrible lag issues.
 
anyone wanna join me in act 4 hell when the servers go up (EU)?

I think this is probably why this sucker is getting so damn hot. Im going to open it up, let it cool down and then try to play it straight off the laptop.
 
Anybody did the math to see how good a build is when using Frenzy over Hammer (used with Cleave as the main attack).... With the Berserker Rage of course which means you would pretty much always be at 100% fury...

Anybody?
 
It's truly a shame that I won't be getting 60 today because of the servers going down :(

Oh well, tomorrow is fine I guess...

G'night!

My MBP shuts itself down for overheat protection while playing D3 if I don't have a cooling pad under it. I know a lot of people don't buy into them but the results for me are clear.

At Aussie primetime its like 210 ping for me. At US primetime its like 450 to 1200 ping for me. Shit is unplayable and my character is always rubberbanding. Asian servers are just as bad.

I'm from Panama and i'm getting 400-600ms and spikes of 1k ms, bruteforced it and finished it in Normal but its a pain in the ass and a torture, and this server downtime didn't fix anything....
 
I don't even have the game, nor will I, unless console port (LAWL), I'm pissed just like the rest of you

Was watching Streams of Inferno Act 2 World First stuff, Pissing me off

DA FAK is wrong with me!

=[

I even stopped trophy whoring for half-a-day watching Streams

The FUCK have you done to me BLIZZARD!

What the unholy hemorrhaging fuck. I got removed from the game midway through the end of Act 1 and 2 FMVs, and now at the end of Act 3 at the little in-game cutscene happening at the end I get booted again. Seriously killing me here.

The speedrunners are mid Act 2 now on Inferno.
Click to expand...

All 3 on Inferno Act 2, near the end of it

3 of them

1 is just pure skill, running on blue gear
1 is geared up, maybe 2-3 sub-bosses back
1 is a charity driven team, very secretive

How do I save my game? Can I do it in a town?

And how do I use my weapon? I'm a Wizard with a bow but I can't shoot it...
Click to expand...

As far as I can tell, the weapons for non weapon users is only there to provide the stat that all your spell damage is based on. Hold ctrl over your spells to see the %.

Saving is like MMO's. Automatic serverside.

Ye, I think the passive will get nerfed too. I'm mean +20 hatred +2 disc per health globe is insane.
 
I can safely say that I'm feeling some soreness in my mouse hand after playing so much. Maybe time to invest in a new mouse anyway, even though I had decided to put it off before launch.

End boss act2 in inferno will be interesting. ^^
Click to expand...

Unless they use a super defensive or some kind of cheesy build, I can see it being a cockblock for a good while.
 
Diablo 2 also had lag spikes for Duriel, Diablo and Lister that would often cause people to die the moment the boss appeared since they wouldn't be able to move for 5 seconds. You almost couldn't beat Duriel unless you had a good tank so you could survive the load.

IIRC in those cases it's because the game would load a sound clip from the CD and since the CD would be at rest it would have to spin up before the sound loaded.
