I don't think they thought this through very well. As it is now, 30-60 is a complete grind with little or no encouragement along the way. Neph stacks should have applied at all levels and first kill on boss should always net more than blues.

No reason besides the challenge.
Challenge.
It seems like the auction house economy is better.
Well it's more like he DOES damage, and I don't. I can only melee that boss when he's doing certain animations, or else I eat his 3 hit combo which does 90% of my health. Switching to a kiting build is not an option because I want to keep my 5 stacks, and if I wanted to kite all day I'd play a different class.
He still doesn't take very long, and I do get some decent hits in when iron impact/WOTB are up. Hell I do the most damage when I get grabbed and can flail about wildly with no fear of dying.
What kind of stats?
The only part I tried in act 3 was Heart of Sin. That part is just impossible. I'll try Siegebreaker later.

Well the only challenge is trying to beat Blizz design.
If nothing is different, there's no reason to play it. I'm not gonna play it to get one shotted by offscreen mobs in inferno.
It has a separate AH?
The yellow items mainly drop off of the rare mobs, you'll rarely see them drop off of a boss excpet on your first run and when you start getting Nephalam Valor.
Better epeen?
I do wonder why it didn't work that way. Give a short (~5 minute) window for when you gain a level where you can change skills and it'll still be functional for 30-60 and let people try out new skills they got while leveling.

Why is everyone complaining about the patch, they didn't even say the servers are up yet of course you can't connect.

If you die on hardcore do you lose items forever ?

I wish I knew the servers weren't up before I got stuck in the infinite patch loops. Smh.

Trying not to rage....just breath....
OK
Patched on Mac client and got in but once logging in it tells me to get the new patch and closes the game to the downloader again...for the patch I already have installed.
NOW
Blizzard....wtf is with the Monk nerfs? We are one of the weakest classes and you keep shitting on us with no way to fix the stuff you already nerfed like Boon rune.
LE SIGH

Inventory and Equipped, yes; Stash is safe.
Speaking of the stash, what the hell are the missing three tabs for? Is there a super secret +1 Stash Tab Blacksmithing recipe I'm not aware of?
Whatever is on you at the time iirc. Stash is retained.
Separate AH, shared stash and gold.
Serenity was nerfed awhile ago, this should just be updating the tooltip to reflect the hotfix.
Just for the thrill of perma death. It really is a far more exciting way to play even though I lost a character on it yesterday.
Also because I believe there will be no RMAH in HC as well.

The only issue I have with this is that every time someone levels up, it would be a "STOP EVERYTHING" moment while that person readjusts their skills. That can happen pretty frequently in the 30-50 range with a group of four people.
I just want better loot on my first boss kill. It's so deflating seeing three or four blues on the ground after you finally down a boss. =/
Why wouldn't there be? That's where the big bucks are!
BUT I WANT TO CLICK ON THINGS AND MAKE THEM DIE AND EXPLODE
I'm at work and busy clicking new tabs and closing them. It's kind of like playing but the loot is better.

Tyrael does something like 50 to 70k damage per hit on bosses and uniques!
Oh and I think there should be a separate thread just for players at Inferno because it is practically a whole different game from D3 played at Normal-Hell and the advice most Inferno players will give for a specific class isn't necessarily the best when applied to the lower difficulties.

I think the servers are down.
Agreed, but you CAN download the patch, but then you just can't sign in. False hope and all that.
The Serenity change has been in the game since I think Day 1 or 2.
This already happens anyway :|

I only crit for that much, he hits crazy hard but he attacks kinda slow. DreamVisions I'm enjoying the game more now and I'm not raging as much, got better gear and I'm farming regular/blue elites in Act 4 inferno now, fun times lol..

FTFY.
Hardcore Stash and gold are separate from non-hardcore Stash and gold, but Hardcore stash and gold are still shared among other hardcore characters.
Not sure...Ive only read it in a few unofficial places that there wont be a RMAH in HC.

Hail, peons, for I have come as ambassador from the great and bountiful Blueberry Butt Explosion
It might be a bug. It seems really weird that the specialized loot table only applies to Normal.
I can't handle groups of regular mobs past Ghom, I jumped my way to Siegebreaker and stopped after killing him.
But I CAN handle the enemies on the walls with some difficulty. I haven't had my stack fall off yet so it's not that bad, I'm just unlucky and almost everything I get is frozen/arcane/desecrator.
I can't screenshot my stats right now for obvious reasons, but here's an older picture. I have 46k hp and a bit more resists/armor now since I upgraded my boots/gloves.
There's room for three more tabs on the stash. Why not just make the existing ones larger if all that empty space won't be used? It irks me.

Ahh ok. I thought they already nerfed it but couldn't think if it was the same thing they did previously.

Not always! I felt like you and I were both pretty restrained when we blasted through 3 or 4 levels on Act IV NM a few days ago!
Another issue: when I don't like a new skill I want to be able to switch it back easily. And if you choose to keep it, sometimes you need to play around with that skill before you know how it's going to impact the rest of your build. I'd hate for there to be an incentive not to do these things.
-41567 damage?This seems worth a bit
What you equipin?

Yes. Everyone. The game is not ready yet.
Yea that was what I intended to convey, poor wording on my part.

Yes that system is a bit counter productive in my eyes. They should instead let the launcher check for game availabilitty and status instead. So if you can patch the game you can also play again.

So what did they patch for the monk? is he still under powered?
:x
Feel bad we had to stop there. Speaking of, I need to check if I have any random WD stuff if you want it. I just went through upgrading/changing most my Wizard's equipment so I'm bound to have some random stuff I don't need anymore that has INT/VIT all over it.
I just remember playing with friends (SORRY GUYS) and levels would mean I had enough time to change my skills, grab a drink/snack, maybe cook something if it's one of those big levels where you got 2-3 skills. Worse if we had items to sell!
...I'm horribly impatient, you see.
Yeah, which is why it makes sense that NV doesn't apply until 60. It'd have been nice for 30+ but you either get penalized for playing with new skills or you have that small window where you're free to change things and it's not really enough time to get a good feel for things.

Thank you sir.
I still need some upgrades to break 800 resist, but I think my damage is awful right now. You have 11k, I have only 7-8k :/
