I refuse to make a male wizard or a female barbarian. Anything else is fair game
Hush, Aragorn.
I really like the Male Wizard's VA.

I've never played a Diablo game before, so I just wondering. Between this thread, and the Giantbomb TNT, everyone seems to have gone female. I guess it's more because of the goofy feminine looking male models though.

Damn, what act did it drop in?
Inferno Act 1 boss is destroying me as soon as he determines the best way to win is to set the entire area on fire.
Try Elemental Arrow w/ Ball Lightning. The ball passes through enemies as well as linking the lightning to other enemies so 3/4 Ball Lightnings straight up eat through mobs if you use it while smoke-screening.

I have the solution but you won't like it -- play less. Or take 5 minute breaks every 30 minutes of playing. (don't let that stack to 2 hours and taking a 20 minute break). No mouse you use is going to cause less discomfort to your wrist unless you start mousing differently. But honestly, that's unlikely to change, everyone holds a mouse a different way and unlearning that is as tough as unlearning any learned behavior.
One day you're going to make a post that just trails off into nonsense 24 hours after the release of Phantom Souls and GAF is going to have to piece together the mysterious circumstances of your death...

You better fix that before your neighbors call the cops and report possible domestic violence coming from your house.
What's this about not playing a Male Wizard? He has my favourite VA out of all of the voices I've happened to hear so far (from partying with other people)!
I'm level 46 in Act III Nightmare, and I seemed to have "stabilized" as far as difficulty goes. At the beginning of Act II I was getting my ass kick quite a bit, but switched up my skills a bit and things are progressing much better. Hell is going to be a kick in the teeth, though.

What Spirit Barrage doesn't tell you in the tooltip is that it ignores terrain, including solid walls.

The only solution to that is 4x Demon Hunters with 3 second smoke screen constantly reviving each other.
Yoshichan
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?
Need to quit the game

Oh, that's good news. I was prompted to download this today and was worried it might create new problems ;p

If Yoshichan doesn't stop playing he is going to unlock "Cthulhu Difficulty".

Haha, the only two classes I play.
Speaking of which, level 35 wizard right now in nightmare. Here is my current build. Decent balance between offense and defense. Would love to throw in blizzard, familiar or magic weapon but I don't know what I'd swap out. Any suggestions?

Nice tip, never had that idea.
Obviously this is the first thing I did but it doesn't help. Everything, from footsteps to wind sounds to weapon sounds is "sound effects". It's flawed in itself. Same problem with headphones though not as noticable. But even then weapon sounds are way overdone. It's like someone cranked them up to 150% internally. It's just bad sound design imo.

Very few games I have run across are designed with great sound. Not defending Blizzard but at the same time other companies also have screwy issues when it comes to overall sound design.
That could be though it has never been as in your face as in this game. Really, you have to bring down sound effects to 40 to 50 to make it tolerable and you loose all ambient sound details in that progress. It's so bad that it could almost be a bug.
Yeah I take pretty regular breaks, just figured something that held my wrist a bit differently would be better. Fair enough then. Thanks!

It's four max. I think there would simply be too much going on if there were more than that. The problem with those big games was that they were always zergfests, something Blizzard clearly wants to avoid with this entry.

If they wanted to put a skill element to the game they should redesign some elite mob skills.

Yea, I had to bring down effects volume to 50ish or the sound of shock pulse boom-booming all over the place destroys everything lol.
I really like the overall sound of battle once you have it a little rebalanced, though. It's an audiovisual beast.
Ashodin, Melee Demon Hunter
Level 40, NIGHTMARE MODE Act 2, near the beginning
Whew, haven't done this in a while.
Yeah it's been about six levels since my last post, but I've been busy with work, and I just got done playing a long time with some friends, making leveling and drops a lot of fun.
As you can see by my DPS, which has skyrocketed from the beginning of Act 1, (At Level 36 I was 700, so I more than doubled my DPS) and enemies just literally pop around me now. Nightmare mode is becoming easier than I thought it would be.
And my build is still holding, I change things up here and there. Took Perfectionist, Night Stalker, and my discipline is always bangin' for Shadow Power. I move a lot slower though, which I'm not too terribly fond of (want to get into melee fast, so Vault still does its job). Enjoying the hell out of Tinkered out Grenades maintaining the Hatred, might try Grenadier at Level 45.

eerily familiar...
They pretty much took the "Avoid the fire" mentallity from WoW and went fucking nuts with it.
That shits not fun blizzard, it's never been fun, wasn't fun in molten core isn't fun now. Especially with pings of 300. It's just a damn boring mechanic.
Guy doesn't seem to have very feminine features to me. Definitely a "my life is so hard I am now an angry robot murderer" vibe, but that's what you get with either Demon Hunter.
Actually, I mean that even those I'm just straight up tanking now. Not sure what changed, really. Maybe just growing accustomed to proper spamming Mantra for BoP.
