What's the one thing you guys have never gotten in this game. I have still never got a legendary plans. It's weird because I get plans for things all the time.

"With this system, players can choose to increase the health and damage of monsters according to different "power levels" and in return they’ll receive scaling bonuses to experience (for heroes levels 1-59)"
So this wont help you level Paragon faster? Kind of a bummer.
Also still haven't got a SET item yet after ~300hours. Or Legendary Plan, Or Jeweler Plan (That I know of -stopped checking blue for awhile when I thought all plans went Yellow)
Defeating each boss pair will provide players with extra items and gold, as well as a chance to find components for a new Legendary ring
SWEET

Uh oh. This one isn't going to be received so well.

A fair assessment.
It's great to see Resplendent Chests getting some deserved attention. Blizzard actually went above and beyond what I thought needed to be done with those.

Very excited this game does actually get better and better it seems. Whens this patch coming did they release a date?
I don't know if I like this...
They are getting there. Maybe I'll do a run once in a while as opposed to never ever again.
And WW Barb is OK, yes, proc reduce sucks, but:
Should even it out. Less Fury spent = more time to WW around.
Enchantress Armor nerf too... Well, they are nerfing damage anyway, so maybe it works out.
When its ready. I assume this PTR patch comes out in a week or two. It will likely get tested for a few weeks so a month?

Obviously Ha. Was just wondering if they had mentioned a target anywhere. Whays PTR stand for. Do Blizzard Devs come here and read GAF. I swear most stuff bitched about here gets fixed. I remember reading a hope theres Exp shrines post we bitch about blue jeweler plans. I guess a lot is common sense/progression, but still they really hit the problems compared to other companies.

I'd suggest to everyone on GAF with a set item to dump them now for maximum profit. More dropping means more to choose from and prices tanking.
Always keep ahead of the gold curve, if you farm less perfectly for a week or two but end up millions of gold ahead you win!

Less fury generated = less time to WW around: fury from sprint is 60% less, while WW costs about 45% less. It's also a serious nerf to runed WotB, because you will be using much less fury.
I think it might still work out. How many times when you are WWing is your Fury capped due to crits. I'm guessing most of the time. Do you mean to Thrive on Chaos rune? Maybe.
I will say that this works best on Act III where there are more mobs, maybe it will suck for Act I or II.
I think the overall problem will be that WW Barb is just too good for farming and they let that happen for too long. Let's face it, nerfs had to happen long ago, and I still don't think it will be that significant. We'll see.
It means the rolls should be better in the later acts, but the affix allocation will still be the same regardless of Acts. I think I don't like it because we might run into the same problem of underpowered items in early acts that can't ever be a significant increase over what you already have/can buy for cheap, thus somewhat blocking natural item progression.
Act 3/4/pony is 63.
No additional tabs for storage? Come on Blizzard.
Is life steal affected by proc? If not maybe you can offset some of the nerfs with 5% life steal and a mighty weapon for the crit gen nerf. At least Battlerage duration has been buffed so you don't have to worry about spending fury on that in battle.
edit: Legendary leaves mark on the minimap? THANK YOU

WTF they didn't really do shit for Monks but nerf us. Every other class got stuff to compensate for their nerfs. What the hell?
HOLY FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!! Actual defensive options for DH! And 2 of them are true to life passive ALWAYS ON options instead of rinky dink 3 second duration bullshit! FINALLY! Stack this with the Companion pets actually tanking for us the way the new Witch Doctor pets do, and we are finally moving out of the "Glass cannon is your only option" playstyle. Good fucking riddance too. Man these changes are fantastic.
Yeah the Monk class changes left more to be desired.
Same here, best change so far, THANK YOU BLIZZ <3
Evasive fire-Hardended...I'M IN FUCKING LOVE, NO MORE BACKFLIP, FUCK YES, THANK YOU EVEN MORE BLIZZ
but I'm gonna miss my 3 shots :<

Barbs slightly less overpowered oh God FU Blizzard
I'd say get a mighty weapon w/ life steal as your main hand, life steal and LoH for off hand, life steal on belts, and try to raise your dps/crit chance on other gears.
Not sure how it's gonna pan out until the patch goes alive, but you should prepare some if not most gears before life steal weapons skyrockets in AH.

Ah the dreaded trail of cinders nerf. We had a good time together, ToC, but all good things must come to an end. Actually, I'll probably still use it for a while just to see how it is, cause it looks like trails are stackable now. It currently is ridiculous lol
yeah the stackable part may make it still of use for me as I usually put 3 down on a pack so it should only be a reduction to 900% or so... plus with vault now breaking jailer I don't have much reason to go back to smoke screen as vault is much cheaper.
I was going to point out the Res chest change but then I ran across this:
Jeweler Designs that drop in the world will now show up as Rare quality (yellow) to make them more visible on the ground
Items below iLevel 58 no longer drop in Inferno difficulty
Thank god...
Do L58 items provide inferno mats? Seems like it will still be junk that isn't even worth salvaging.
Looks at Barb nerfs. Well I was planning to switch to monk anyway.
Looks as Monk notes. These buffs are as meaningful as the Barb buffs.

Love the item changes. Love the chest and nv changes. Resplendent chests popping rates again is awesome. No more lvl 52 is as well.
Probably not but this is still infinitely better then getting ilvl52s in Inferno.
Not even a person at lvl52 wants that crap.

God patch. PvP coming 2013 though, seriously.
Where did they say they are boosting set drop rates?

*looks at skill changes for DH, Wizz and Barbs*
*looks at skill changes for monks and WDs*
Blizzards really hates us monks and WDS
I'm not unhappy about any of the skill changes - it just seems like we'll be playing the game the same we always have lol
Well, now you can set the players X thing in the room, and that will give you boosts in MF and GF, which generally means more items on the AH.
Also, resp chests will give you better stuff, and no more stuff below i58 in Inferno.
They haven't particularly BOOSTED drop rates, but all the changes generally means better drops which will devalue stuff in the AH.

Guess I should get a good life steal weapon before the patch drops, but >1k DPS lifesteal weapons are so expensive

Affixes on items will now roll their level based on the level of the monster killed (rather than the items level) ----> hmmmm this means best drop of the game from the bo$$e$? am i wrong?
CarbonatedFalcon
Member
I think it means that since the monsters in Act 1 inferno are level 61 (62 at most), the maximum amount of affixes you'll get will be less than say, Act 3/4 monsters. This means that the best gear will always come from the later acts, though you can still find some very worthy things in Act 1 and 2. With the monster power system though, you should be able to adjust up the monster levels in the earlier (and later acts), and possibly end up with items that have more affixes than possible currently.
