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?
He agreed.

Anybody? I guess it's possible these two work differently since Rend is an area effect and Haunt hits a target, but I still haven't been able to figure out if I'm just extending the timer by re-casting these types of spells.
I played a Warlock in WoW, hard to escape that mentality. ;p
Well, minus the complete financial disaster part, of course.

Serious question... why are you posting about a random death in softcore?
You are both on crack. FFXIV still doesn't have an AH. STILL.
Those bloody fallen maniacs are doing more damage than champion packs are. I just slaughtered a Reflect Damage Plagued pack in about eight seconds and didn't lose any health, but those Fallen Maniacs have killed me twice, and nearly killed me about five times since I started. >_>;
Off-hand, I did:
Electrocute > Lightning Blast
Blizzard > Snowbound
Magic Weapon > Force Weapon
Energy Armor > Force Armor (for awhile, just Frost Nova > Cold Snap here)
Diamond Skin > Crystal Shell
Hydra > Venom Hydra
Passives: Astral Presence, Galvanizing Ward, and I tried Arcane Dynamo for a lot of Hell for beefier Hydras.
Fast Teleport Vortex Waller Fallen Maniac pack might have been the most hilariously sad pack I've ever seen.
They all blew up my Templar.

Is the AH working yet or still soldsoldsoldsoldsold
Yeah 2 years, almost 3? after release they MAY get shit right.
Somehow I don't think 2.0 is going to save that game.
Still soldsoldsoldsoldsold.

DHs get it for activation not on hit so shooting the air is very viable and quite useful in inferno. Maybe its a bug? I found their resource system far more fluid and usable than a monk prior to my monk being specifically geared for it. I don't even know how people run around with non fist weapons with no spirit regent; that seems suicidal.
ZING... sept that isn't true since I've used it more than it has been down. XIV straight doesn't have one and is a MMORPG.

Wrath of heaven is a heal with 15% boost to damage, Every spirit spender is decent heal when you spam them and sanctuary heals you and gives you invulnerability and heal on spirit use. More then enough heals. At IAS of more than 2 per second you can spam your roundhouse with knock fast enough to not take any melee damage. But you need decent spirit regen a second to keep it up.
Monks are going to take a while to sink in and great builds to come out.

Just hit 60 not long ago.
Bought this off the AH for my Witch Doctor for 155K. I use Haunt too, which means that 8% extra damage is nice. Good deal?
As a fellow Witch Doctor who hit 60 a couple of nights ago, just started Inferno, and uses Haunt all the time... I am extraordinarily jealous.
Latency seems pretty good post-patch. I'm sitting at 118 MS. Not bad at all. If it stays this way, I might tempt Hardcore mode after I finish Hell.
Hasn't it already kinda happened with the lag between a purchase? I mean I figure that's basically what that is. =p

That might just be it, then. My Monk has been geared for Spirit generation (High Crit for Quickening) for awhile and Normal through Hell is pretty easy regardless anyway. I still don't remember any real big Spirit issues outside of needing some Regen to start fights at full. That's annoying at best but full Hatred isn't as big of a deal vs Spirit. Meanwhile, I find generating Hatred to be a bit of an annoyance vs Spirit, though I'm kiting so much that it probably doesn't matter anyway.

ooo So with the update the 3 second skill on Mantra of Healing is a 3 second absorption shield. Boon of Healing is no Boon of inspiration giving a bonus 186life per hit. So now the the mantra is 200 something life back per second plus almost 200 life per hit after a short 3 second grace period of shielding
Thats kinda a buff right? right?

Obvious answer... but hardcore
Anyone that alt-tabs during Hardcore deserves what they get.
Flinch lock doesn't seem that much fun, though last I tried something like it was with the Stun chance rather than Knockback flinching. I think most Inferno Monks have something that works, just need to reach the right level of mitigation and spirit generation (and Life per Spirit) to keep a constant cycle of healing going. The fact a lot of us take Seven-sided Strike purely for the few moments of invulnerability should say a lot, really.
Well, that's interesting at least. Kind of makes Conviction > Reclamation's 30% chance to heal kind of uh ... not worth it.
I just renewed a month to get the Legacy items like the choco mount. Idk why I can't give up on that game entirely. Played XI for 6 years on and off and never found a game that I fell in love with like I did that ever after, so I keep hoping SE will remedy XIV to be that spirtual successor to XI I need.
XIV is still dildos though right now imo.
What's up with blizzard not updating every region simultaneously?
The America's are on 1.0.2 now, whilst EU and Asia are not, completely breaking global play.
You have to go and edit the agent.db file to the american patch region to play on the US servers, I have no idea how it works retrograde for US players playing in the other regions.

I don't think this is true. The tooltip specifically says "Reduces damage from incoming attacks". That suggests to me that armor reduces ALL incoming damage, magical or physical.
Correct. Armor is all damage.
Shouta

Don't think it does.
Yeah, Armor should be a global reduction. And I'm still not sure how EHP is supposed to scale linearly when Armor and Resistances aren't linear themselves: Armor / (Armor + 50 * EnemyLevel) and Resistance / (Resistance + 5 * EnemyLevel).
While we're at it, assuming the mitigations are pretty close (e.g., 5000 Armor and 500 Resistances currently):
10 STR = 10 INT = 10 Armor = 1 Resistance
Since the stats keep getting forgotten in this. Throw 10 DEX in there for Seize the Initiative on Monks.

It's mostly just stability and bugfixes. Nothing any new. So far I've noticed that latency is a lot lower.
If you have Windows7 it should be in C:\ProgramData\Battle.net\Agent, you can open it with Notepad. Just changed all the patch locations to enUS.

It's your best bet for Barb and Monk in Inferno, though Monk has Life Per Spirit Spent as well to help heal.

awesome... I usually got a 105 to 300 soo will see.....
I've been sitting around around 115 post-patch, where as pre-patch I was all over the place, but usually around 250. It is a significant improvement so far. >_>;
