Yeah but you're normally getting drops with a minimum level far below yours, while at the AH you can get stuff right at your level which might not normally drop for you for another act or two.

Yeah the ramp up between Act 1 and Act 2 seems pretty steep. After peeking into act 2 a bit yesterday on my DH it reminded me of that scene in Jaws where Roy Schnieder says, "We are going to need a bigger boat."

I love the added mobility as well. Being able to jump up and down the level really helps. I was going to try out charge and see what it is like.

Yeah. At the moment I'm in a quandary though because while I always use it as my opener (followed by Ground Stomp/Wrenching Smash and Rend) - I'm finding that I'm stuck in a group I can't handle and really need it again to get out. :(

Maybe I should look at both in a build, although if I concentrate too much on defence it'll take forever to kill anything. Took me some time to kill NM SK last night.
 
So I'm level 47 on Nightmare now as my Wiz, using this build as I love the kiting aspects and the fact I never seem to die.

Any ideas on how I can improve it? Having infinite blizzards kind of makes it awesome for being able to pull tons of enemies at once and kite them all.

I sort of feel I could replace Attunement or whatever it is on Magic Missile but I'm not sure what to replace it with.
 
DH?

Some stuff might sound trivial, but ...
-Reset your router before you play
-Don't alt tab
-If you are afk go into a town and press esc to freeze the game. I think if you hit esc near mobs and you get dc'ed you can die.
-At some point in Act III mobs can get near the chest.
-Vit is your main attribut. You can find my stats 2 pages ago.
-As a Wizz/DH/WD use a shield. It really makes a difference in tanking more. Besides, a good shield can have 90 of you main attribut ... so there ain't a big dmg drop.
-You can die easily at: Act II IV suicide bombers. Act II mosquito. The guys in Act III that root you in place. The big big guys in Act IV hit hard, be really carefull with them. Also any form of poison and molten(!!!) can kill you in seconds.

edit: if you are Eu I got soooo much backup lvl gear. Realyn#2451
 
..........

Started a new character on Asia server and had to wait 10 mins to get into a game thanks to the queue. And now the game was so laggy 600+ms, it just crashed on me.

*cries*

Please be back up sooner than 8 hours.......

Uhm.. the game keeps disconnecting me all the time and reverting all the stuff I did because I didn't reach any checkpoint. This is quite ridiculous.
 
Hmm, achievements still randomly dissappear and reappear it seems. I was comparing achievements with someone elsesand i noticed i didnt have the Zoltan Kulle and Maghda kill achievement on normal but i was playing nightmare at that moment.
 
Normal was so easy. Died only a few times at all. Then even the 2nd difficulty is considerably harder if you don't have a crew. I ran into mobs a few time and got raped :(
 
Well the server maintenance still didn't fix achievements, still don't have level 10 achievement lol.

That said I hope it at least fixes the latency, 200 ms being the absolute minimum you can get is a little ridiculous 1 week from launch.
 
I'm into act 3 with my twinked barbarian, my buddy rolled a monk and he twinked it out too. It's comical how quickly we're clearing through the place. I love it.


It's also funny how low people list some times, I got some 2 legendaries for like no more than 50k.

Cleared normal difficulty with my main. Loved the story although it's cringeworthy sometimes :D

I used Poison Dart [Splinters] as my single target skill and Acid Cloud [Acid Rain] as my AoE nuke which is very effective atm although I heard it's not at NM and beyond. Fetish Army for Champs/Elites/Bosses as well as Mass Confusion whenever I feel threatened. I hope my trusty Gargantuan can cope with NM and Hell :D Spirit Walk for WTF moments.

First thing I'm gonna do is increase my Vitality... I know I'm gonna need it.

Also, looking forward to starting my first HC character, haven't decided what to make yet :/ Maybe Wizard.
 
A'ight, so I'm still a little confused about the whole equipped-weapons-affect-all-of-your-abilities-even-though-you-never-really-use-your-weapon mechanic. So in regard to a caster class, if a weapon says it does +poison damage, and you cast a spell that doesn't list it's damage as poison (say it's arcane or something), do you still do poison damage to the enemy? What if it's an AOE, do you do poison damage to all the enemies? In this case would you be causing both arcane and poison?? There's a passive skill for the Witch Doctor that would take advantage of causing poison damage.

And does the weapon speed also dictate how fast you cast spells? If so, all DPS being equal, wouldn't a caster want a slower, harder hitting weapon to save on mana?
 
I've been DC'ed 5 times in the last 25 minutes. So are all my friends. I've been really patient with this and haven't complained once, but seriously, FFS.

Looks a lot like my build.

Too bad the barb isn't really fun in inferno atm. Way too gear dependent. What's the fun in running away from mobs all the time when you're supposed to be a killing machine? Fix this shit, Blizzard.

they are right in the middle of a server maintenance on the US servers, scheduled until 9:00am pacific time. Not saying that's acceptable, but it's silly to try play if they're bringing the servers up and down.

Yeah, the current game balance is pretty broken for barb after act 1 inferno, even with like 45-50k hp, almost 75% armor and tons of resistances I get absolutely destroyed. I think I'll shelf mine, level alt(s) and (hopefully) wait for buffs to bring it up to the quality of the other classes.
 
Hearing rumors that Force Armor (Wizard) was messed with on Inferno difficulty. May now be some kind of ceiling as to how much overkill it will prevent.
