I find myself selling some good shit for like 1k in the lower levels simply cause i dont have a good handle on what they are worth because the in-game economy is total shit and you have to basically study the auction house to even know how much to sell shit for.
Plus im not gonna use the crap anyway, so selling for that amount still gets me 10x the value of what i would have gotten otherwise. And its real easy to post an auction.

I see your point. However, I would think it possible to alleviate this issue. For example, imagine a system that weights each piece of gear based on stat values and your hero class. It would be fairly trivial to keep a running total, or average, of each character's item finds. Then the game logic could compensate by dropping fewer or more highly weighted items. It could even be possible to tie in to the "magic find" mechanic already in place.

Rares drop pretty frequently for me in nm with 97 mf. And most of it is stuff that I can't use, shouldn't use, or isn't any better than my current gear. So I'm pretty much drowning in equipment that I don't need, but can't bring myself to throw away. Probably the same for lots of people.
I am starting to be a lot more selective in what I pick up though. Just not enough inventory/stash space to pick up everything.
It feels like most people with a computer + the internet are playing. Half the results on Google when I'm trying to look something D3 related up timeout or get bad gateway errors! The sales numbers for this are going to be huge.
Anyone else have this?
I was an avid D2 player back in the day, and had lots of fun. So naturally i looked forward for years for D3 (i also was on the convention were they announced it). Now that it came out i feel kinda meh about it.
I cleared Hell difficulty, and i like my char. does enough dmg etc. but i feel like something is missing. Im not having the same fun as i had in D2....maybe its because im older and stuff but i dont know. feel kinda bummedi get the feeling this is not gonna be a game im gonna play the next couple years like D2...
The D2 Expansion Pack added so much of what made D2 awesome. More classes, more skills, more loot and more content. Vanilla D2 was ok but the Exp Pack made it awesome.
I am enjoying D3 as it stands but I do miss things like Runewords and more stuff I can socket. I would like to see more than just 1 more Act for the D3 expansion pack. Maybe some alternate modes like Coliseum Boss Rush mode or something like that.
PvP should also lengthen it a bit more.thetrin
Hail, peons, for I have come as ambassador from the great and bountiful Blueberry Butt Explosion
Checkpointing into the middle of a fight is always bizarre.
I use the AH all the time. I don't see how it makes the game less fun. Improving survivability never makes the game less fun.

Yeah your right, LoD made the game truly good. But i just feel for a game that has been in development so long there could have been more content imo...
But heck yeah a Coliseum boss rush mode would be friggin awesome.
I find it more fun. Its not like I am gearing up my character with everything from the AH. A few weapons here and there will do wonders for your progress, which helps you find the awesome stuff yourself.
I would seriously love them to bring back Runewords and Skulls for socketing etc. Maybe some class specific items that we can use to put into weapons to give them stats and effects.
PvP is coming but I would like to see some co-op focused modes. Maybe in the Expansion or maybe just as a free update. Boss Rush, Survival Mode or Endless Tower kind of thing with Leaderboards, plenty they could do to make people play the game more! I just hope we don't have to wait years for it to come out.
Arcane + waller is deadly. ;P
So I want to begin HC but I'm not sure between monk or barb... any help ?
I love it. As I said before I played D2 back when I had shit computers and worse Internet connection. I never got good items, and so I could never really trade. I think I only ever had one SOJ. So now with my own drops and the AH it's been nice feeling like I can be awesome. An D2 was always overpowered of you kept even goo blue stuf for your characters, and most people got rushed through everything, so I don't see how access to an extensive trading system like the AH ruin things. D2 was ruined when you needed to get into the dupe economy of SOJs in order to get anything that wasn't ass.

Does it annoy anyone else that you will go through all this effort to clear a area and fill out the map only to return and its all greyed out again. Come on man reward me for my progress!
Its awesome. Started hell and my 150dps fists werent looking so good. Bought 230+dps fists for 25k each
EDIT: ^^^^ god dammit I need more money.

How is latency for everyone on the East coast US? I hate to harp on this but I'm still getting 200-300+ms ping, is this what everyone else is still seeing today? I want to sure it's not something on my end.
Or we could just have the AH since people are going to trade items anyway. Personally I've gotten so much loot that I can't use so I'm trying to offload it to the AH and get some gear for myself.

The OCD in all of us rages a bit, I'm sure ;P
Doing it normally? Ages and ages to hit 99.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
I was surprised to see this too oO. I looked at the AH just to see what it was about, and all you can do is sort by DPS?!? If you already have the sorting feature programmed for DPS, shouldn't it be the easiest thing in the world to just extend that feature to the other details as well?!?
Haha ok, so i guess i can assume level 60 cap in this game will get removed at some point later down the road...
Just hit level 30 and am trying out the Archon skill...
Combined with my glass cannon approach, I can move from group to group, slaughtering everything in my path like they're nothing. As long as I occasionally hit a large group of peons, the skill just keeps going on and on and on.
Feels good, man. REAL good.

They've said that they most likely won't expand the level cap even in expansions.
Closest I got to cap in D2 was 89 I think. That was out of 99. And it took months and months and months. Here I'll hit cap in less than a week probably.

I just realized its totally different this time...I am a moron
Mmhmm!
You should put no effort into "filling out the map"
Wise words I shall do it!!
Try switching the server, maybe you ended up on the wrong one by accident. It's happened before in this thread.
Aww, that's a shame, 60 seems low to me for a game like this, don't know why. Guess i will see how it is when i get up there.
Hell is kicking my ass. Holy crap, trying to figure out what build to focus on to make it less of an issue. It doesn't help that I only have 6k HP as a monk.
In my defense, up till now a high dodge and my healing have held me over pretty well. But now I get one shotted VERY easily. Buying some new equip is first - up to almost 9k hp now. Sacrificed a lot of DPS though, went from 3500 to 3300.

Damn, I found a secret stash of loot in Act 1 (with the tree mini boss) and portaled back to town to unload my inventory but upon returning, everything was gone . I actually died for the first time fighting those trees, than I lost the loot.

What exactly do you hate about it?

6k, really? Level up a few times, every level increase nets you +1 point per vitality around your level, so the jump from 46-47 for example netted me 500+ hp because that was my vitality number around then. Just grind out a few levels on Nightmare and you will have enough health pool.

I'm new to the Diablo series and just playing through a guest pass. I'm having fun, but I'm finding the game mind-numbingly easy.
Anyways, what happens when you reach the level cap? Just keep trying to beat the game at higher difficulties? Sorry if that sounds like a dumb question, but I'm just wondering about the replayability of the game. Are there many changes to the game in higher difficulties?

Yeah, a few times I've logged back into a reset map and decided to go over it again, and pretty much always had new stuff happening.
You cant even imagine. They are not really higher difficulties, but new games.
Enemy levels are around 30 on nightmare, 45+ on hell and 60+ on inferno. More hp, more damage, etc.
But that is not the fun part. Do you see those special mobs? Blue/Yellow? Well, on normal, they have one modifier. On nightmare, two. On hell? Three. On Inferno: four. Good luck fighting a Jailer/Vortex/Waller/Vampiric group of Dervishes, for example

6k hp and you got to hell? MONKS CHEAT!
I have to run with almost 40k to survive the later acts :|

That doesn't sound too bad... try Vortex Frozen Desecrator Arcane.

Finished with my monk level 32.
What now... Start over or play sorceress ?

Well it's catching up to me, just regeared a bit - at 12k hp with 3700 dps and like... 50k gold left.
I had to have 12k to survive Act 4 NM, then upgraded to 20k at the start of Hell and up to 40k in Act 3. So much goddamn damage.

I was dual wielding axes for a long time, but then I realized I got 15% more DPS or something with weaponmaster if I used swords. Switched to a spear for a while because it doubled my DPS too...i'll go back to axes once I find a couple of good ones. Might look for some on the auction house today
