Even if she's not with me?

She needs to be with you.

Well she has to be hired and traveling with you, sure. But they're not temporary buffs or things she has to refresh, they're just passives that activate when you choose her.

 

[SerArthurDayne]

Evasion tanking is totally viable as long as you have the defense that prevents you from getting one-shotted and the ability to heal that damage up. I'm using this build

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/monk#aZXigh!XUY!ZZbZYc

as my farming build right now. I still die but as long as I avoid the super damage sources, I can still go toe to toe with monsters.

I assume you use a shield since you aren't taking advantage of the Guardian's Path Dodge boost? Or did you simply have to dump it for All as One in Inferno? Assuming you find sufficient all resistance equipment, what would you switch off for in terms of passives?

You don't need the armor boost from deadly reach? I guess dodge is better that armor, so that makes sense.

... do I want to see it?

We don't talk about Buriza here.

 

[FieryBalrog]

... do I want to see it?

No.

 

[Dahbomb]

I saw Buriza.

It was the first item I searched for when I opened up the AH just for kicks. Even back then it was worth only like a couple 100K. I don't know the economy for it now but even then I realized this weapon is bad in D3 for late game.

I see, thanks!

How much? ^^

 

[Sothpaw]

And worth a ton because it's a very good item. Not all legendaries are garbage, and that is one of the better ones.

Those will actually sell well though. I've looked at some just for the movement speed increase

 

[Yoshichan]

A wrist with movement speed. Fucking awesome :3

All three of you are Judas's.

You don't need the armor boost from deadly reach? I guess dodge is better that armor, so that makes sense.

Yep, I use a shield. Guardian's path isn't good enough until you have the Resists and HP to allow you to take a few hits without the shield. When you can, using it for the extra Dodge is very nice.

If you have the all resistance to get up to 550 or higher, then dropping One with Everything for Guardian's Path is feasible but that requires a very high level of gear IMO. I don't have that kind of set yet so I go with OwE.

Deadly Reach/Keen Eye is not bad but it's a losing battle, at least in Act I/II. By going with damage mitigation, you have to have a high resist/armor/HP level to survive the extra hits you'll be taking. While it is true you get less defensive power by going with dodge, you'll be dodging more than half the hits and the rest just needs to be reduced enough that you can survive and heal it up. Fists of Thunder is faster than Deadly reach which allows you to pummel an enemy and keep your HP up.

As for passives, Transcendence is an absolute must, IMO. Seize the Initiative is almost to the same level as Transcendence but if you can get high armor equipment to make up for it, you could possible leave it off. The other ones are situational depending on gear but One With Everything should be the default unless you're getting like 60-70 All Resist on each of your pieces of gear.

50 dex Lacuni Prowlers are a fantastic catch. Few million on the easy.

 

[TheDancingWatermelon]

Yeah being 52 doesnt automatically condemn them, barb side there is String of Ears(52) and Justice Lantern(50). Those bracers are a nice find!

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Actually, trying it on for a bit and I do like the movement speed buff. =D

I guess not so bad. 17% movement speed now.

Cap at 25% right?

 

[Wallach]

Cap at 25% right?

Yes, 25% is the passive limit (though you can obviously go way over that with active movement speed increases ala Sprint).

 

[shintoki]

Finished up act 1 today on Inferno. I know I'm no where near ready for act 2(Only have a 775 DPS weapon), 20k DPS overall and about 250 Resists.

Where should I farm? Either for decent items to sell or gold? So I can get to act 2

 

[fizzelopeguss]

if you haven't got a DH those are worth rolling one for....lucky cunt.

 

[IceMarker]

Cap at 25% right?

Gear-based movement speed is, yes.

 

[Ramocalypse]

I am really trying to get a good grasp on whats valued on the AH.

Can some of you AH "pro's" give some good rules of thumb in determining value for an item?

 

[Brolic Gaoler]

finally downloading this.

 

[BigJonsson]

Gah, picked up some really good looking weapons with nice stats but sub 300 damage at level 60 =/

 

[Tiamant]

Anyone on EU able to connect? I keep getting this 3003 error :/

 

[Yoshichan]

I play WoW, get the Malygos mount first try.

Yeah, Blizzard wants me back in WoW for sure.

Nope. EU's been fucked pretty much the whole day.

 

[Dahbomb]

WTF...

How the fuck do I have Act IV Inferno unlocked?

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Another legendary, that level 30 rainbow sword.

How much does that sell for?

 

[fizzelopeguss]

WTF...

How the fuck do I have Act IV Inferno unlocked?

remove please, i don't want my trick nerfed.

 

[Yoshichan]

WTF...

How the fuck do I have Act IV Inferno unlocked?

You went into a (hell) public game.

 

[Toma]

Nope. EU's been fucked pretty much the whole day.

Well, they said maintenance would be over by now.

 

[Dahbomb]

You went into a (hell) public game.

..... That doesn't make any sense.

 

[Yoshichan]

..... That doesn't make any sense.

A lot of stuff doesn't make sense in this game.

A lot.

 

[Toma]

..... That doesn't make any sense.

Its a bug.

 

[Dahbomb]

So if I had gone into a public game for all quests in Hell... I would've unlocked all quests in Inferno?

 

[Toma]

Well, they said maintenance would be over by now.

Haha, just noticed the maintenance is now going until 5 AM.

The maintenance was scheduled from 3 to 4 am, but ended up being rescheduled to 1am to 5am. Now thats some scheduling.

 

[Dark Phoenix]

Just found my first legendary item, looked on the auction house and it seems like the minimum is 200k, and that's with a socket, but has less damage per second overall.

Do you think I could get at least that much or sell it lower?

 

[Raxus]

A lot of stuff doesn't make sense in this game.

A lot.

A wizard did it.

Lower if you just want to sell it. Its not THAT good, and level 38 players wont spend 200k on an 80DPS weapon. I never spent more than 40k until level 56 or something.

Otherwise you risk having it taking up space for 2 days.

Edit: Besides, a socket on a weapon at that level makes a HUGE difference in DPS. I'd go for the socketed weapon for the same price.

 

[Flipyap]

Yeah, and that was AFTER it started around 2 am.

 

[Terrordactyl]

... do I want to see it?

Iirc its a level 44 well under 200 damage at perfect roll

 

[Yoshichan]

Sigh.

 

[zlatko]

Either Wizard is a magnet for fucking retards, or I need to just stop leaving my games open. My God it's like a fucking drool monkey convention when they join. NOT PLAYED WITH ONE HALF DECENT ONE YET NOPE!

 

[Neki]

dota 2 has hats. see you guys in 2 weeks. diablo 3 on the shelf!

 

[SuperAwesome]

I just purchased this for about 10,000 gold.

Is there a possibility I can resell this for a much larger amount?
