4-5?!

I had the worst gambling luck ever I guess. My gambling addiction got me practically nothing :(

well my very first gambling experience in D2 was my buddy giving me some gold and saying "gamble that shield" and it was Eyeless, haha.

but really, if you brought a Nagel and Manald with you, any unique ring you got was an SOJ. If you had those two in game already, they couldn't be gambled / wouldn't drop again.

I wonder what boss with be the mephisto of D2. The one you want to run over and over again for items.

Well, bosses aren't the best source of loot. Champions/Uniques have the better loot tables this time around. The Nephalem Valor system improves boss drops _to_ Champion/Uniques quality, however.

Also, I'd imagine it's the Act 4 boss since Act 4 Inferno has completely different loot than Act 3 Inferno (which has different loot than Act 2 Inferno which etc. etc.).

Time to go brave the dangers of Mother's Day with extended family. Might have to take a Nerf gun to fight off the nephews!

Look forward to more D3 hype madness when I return.

I am awake! I slept a lot last night, gotta get in the last few vestiges of normal operation mode before going into HUNTING DEMONS MODE.

All must die!

I have watched every video released by Blizzard for the second time today.

I must confess that even though I was hyped before, now, I can't stop thinking about Diablo any passing second.

I must buy many many beef jerkys for the Wednesday day of work, even maybe for Tuesdays half day off, if Diablo will come early.

I won't even serve my oil paying colleagues on the way back home if that will be the case.

I say
Bring it on.

I can't even use shift or caps lock, because my Monk mindset isn't allowing me to.

Can't wait to see drop tables, I have the impression that bosses will drop great the first time (see skeleton king in beta) and then revert to champion/rare drops. Who knows though

I think this as well.

Maybe with the NV they will drop the same though.

Yeah, until we get to play, I really don't have much to go off of besides what they've said to us. Eagerly awaiting having some data to play with~

I would think that the first kill of each boss in each mode up to Inferno has some kind of guaranteed drop, and perhaps Inferno will just be a mixed bag? Come to think of it, if you only get something the first kill and then it's downgraded to magic items, just gearing up pre-inferno could be a task.

If I had to guess anything, first kills of bosses have an improved drop chance. Maybe.

Either way, I look forward to it. Should be good times!

You get the 'Nephalem Valor' buff at level 60, which is the level you should be sometime in Hell difficulty. With that buff I imagine it will be easier to gear up.

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'm back!



IMPORTANT INFO!
If you've pre-downloaded the digital version of the game in EU English or German before 10:00 AM CEST (9:00 AM GMT) on Saturday May 12, you must obtain the new downloaders to be able to install properly once the game is released on May 15. We apologize for the inconvenience, and ask that you please let friends and acquaintances know so they can begin downloading the working installer that's now available.
(installers in the link) http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/blog/4410912/

Just another reminder for anyone who wants to avoid getting spoiled (it's getting worse the closer we get to the launch day)!
^This script hides all Youtube-comments. There will be spoilers on Youtube so you better to install this script!


This needs to be quotes as-well!
Apparently it's important for people that were in the beta to manually remove some files from their system before installing the full game.

And this!
Just another warning/reminder.

You should really have a blizzard authenticator for this game. Either an IOS/Android version, or the actual physical generator. There's going to be *alot* of hacked accounts, and you don't want to be one of them. Your password, no matter how complex it is, isn't safe.

If it's anything like Diablo II, no drop tables but a set maximum item level droppable by any mob in the game (bosses included) and any kind of item can drop as long as it's under or equal that valor.
 
Hey Yoshi, you might be sad to know that after thinking about it, I was originally set on Barb because of you, but now I'm leaning toward Demon Hunter. WHAT SAY YOU.

Sorry for dumb question but if I'm getting the boxed version, should I download the installer thing and then just put in the disc to play when I get it or will that not work?
 
I, for one, am looking forward to this game and am patiently waiting... ah who am I kidding. GIVE ME NOW Cliky-Clikcy mm nEED lootz. Greaves of the Bear! all over my face.
