i'm expecting better drops than before. So far, nothing that passes that level
Not talking about rmah. If everybody got godly drops every MF run then there would be no more godly drops. I don't think getting a 1000dps 900loh 250str 1h would be very rewarding if everybody got one. That's what was so awesome about the series. (well, at least 2) You could MF for a couple days and get nothing of note then the next run you get something so godlike it pays for upgrades on everything.
You're getting a lot more rares. Not every rare has to be ilvl63 to be good. I think I got more rare rings and amulets in the past day then I got since hitting 60.
Sarkoth won't kill you, random champions in the Cathedral may.
Buyer's remorse/Paypal fuckage?
Maybe someone tried to sell a stuff with the broken AIS affix?
I would be ENRAGED if that did not work, especially if real money was involved.
That is basically a scam right there.
(And yes, I did buy an Inna Pants for 500k, but whatever, it can sit in my inventory for a few more weeks.)
i have been getting more rares, yes but i'm getting more junk at the same time
That is how it works. Nothing wrong with it.
What? That's my item. I sold a 1-handed weapon and it didn't have any ias.
You can buy stuff and then cancel it? Time to do some "shopping" then.

4xMSAA in Diablo, get rid of the vaseline effect. Don't know if you could do this before with nvidia inspector, never tried.

That's how random loot works!

Better check EULA - i think blizzard has this behaviour covered under one of points.
Which legendaries? It could just be that they are terrible legendaries (which is most of them).
Sadly, those are both terrible =/

Well at least you have chance to sell them for 20-50k. People have some weird fetish for legendaries and stuff which would be impossible to sell if it were yellow gets sold.

Blizzard's way of preventing kiting I guess. SAys in patch note they'll regen when not in sight.
Wait, what? So you can't kite and you can't dodge?

I thought it was bad when I died with a 3 second respawn, had a 5 second jog back to the group I was fighting and they were back to full again.
Then I ran into a group where I died, and they immediately went back to full HP before I even released. Guess we can't die now. :lol

So it looks like they nerfed Kulle and Lt Dervish or w/e quests in Act 2 Nightmare..
Any other recommendations on where to quickly get XP?

The increased repair costs are fine on the one hand but they definitely have the effect of making cheap deaths more obvious and irritating. Yesterday I was fighting some elites in Act II in close quarters and kept getting killed by vortex + jailer + arcane + desecrator. At some point a lack of skill (or even decent gear) just isn't the issue anymore.
It's done to promote group play /s

Yup, you're bound to get caught out by stuff like horde + arcane with some sort of lockdown affix.
Had 2 packs spawn on top of each other with unique affixes. 8 God damn things to deal with at once.

Maghda gives 71k exp for finishing quest on hell+ exp for actual kill.
Just don't go back to town after killing her or it will start playing animation.
Life steal? Probably did, depending on what kind of playstyle you're going for. Life steal is pretty worthless.

Anyway, found a quiver earlier with all the desired stats that you'd want on one. Just not a high enough level to get max discipline/crit roll
What should I do?

I mainly got it got the str/vit and figured as my damage increases it might be a decent bonus.
Wow I haven't gotten a single item upgrade in 2 weeks and now post-patch I can perma-tank siegebreaker without using a single cooldown and switching to a mediocre life on hit weapon allows me to perma-tank azmodan in the pools of blood. Thank you blizzard for allowing me to watch anime and do other crap while farming now. Act 3 suddenly turned quite easy and I actually make way more money now even with the increased repair costs.
The NV magic find makes it so most elites drop 2 to 3 rares at 5 stacks. I even got 3 rares from a pack when I joined a game late where I had 0 NV but my brother already had 5. Elite hunting feels to me like the most efficient way to farm now. Whimsyshire doesn't seem so hot anymore because you only get to kill 4-5 elite packs inside and if you could handle that then Act3 should be a cakewalk for your characters anyway.
Great Patch! I like the relatively quick turnaround and hope Blizzard keeps this up.

I was doing this all yesterday, I don't believe this one, unless the mob has to be so far off screen that they stop chasing you.... I had no problem kiting stuff at 100 yards yesterday.
Not that there was much chance of it happening at this point regardless, but that really kills what little chance there was of me ever leveling another character. Game isn't fun enough to go through legitimately a 3rd time.

I'm sorry to tell you that's a huge overpay. Lifesteal doesn't do anything in inferno, you're looking for Life on Hit.

I was leveling a Witch Doctor alt just to mess around with that skill, I really hope they fix that soon.
And for anyone not using just their Primary skills (e.g., Bash/Cleave/Frenzy for a Barb), Life on Hit does even less than Life Steal%.

What I mean is that the emphasis is more on rewards for staying alive rather than punishments for death. A kind of positive reinforcement. Death will still have costs and consequences associated with it. If players were risking losing one valor stack on death, for example, that might make them think twice about fragile builds.
I knew this was coming too. People were initially complaining about the chance for the ilvl 61-63 items. There was a legitimate problem there, but I always knew that even when that was fixed, alot of people would quickly swap from "Nothing can, and nothing does drop for me!" to "I have bundles of items, but they aren't itemized the way I want them to be!".
That crowd is never going to be satisfied, and they just need to quit the game now and save themselves the pain, and save my ears the strain. Its supposed to take months and months and months and MONTHS to put together sets of nearly completely ideal itemized loot. So long in fact that it should take you until the next expansion so the 'treadmill' gets extended once you reach that point. We are what, a month or so in and folks are already bitching.

Good thing to know that I'm not the only one who feels something changed with act 3 loot.
