Just logged in for the first time in probably 3 months, and wow! I got pretty decked out rather easily, and my stats are way better now then they were before when I had my "good" gear.
Anything I should know? Someone get me up to speed!
- MP levels let you adjust difficulty for both increases in exp / MF and GF.
- Paragon Levels Introduced each level giving you an additional 3% GF/MF native.
- Helfire Rings can now be farmed (look into this it's fun)
- They stopped punishing people for playing in groups and only give monster .75 increase in HP per person in group.
- Resplendent Chests are now affected by NV stacks and act like elites if you have a 5 stack
- If you dont' have a stack they give you one
- Events give you a stack or replenish your stack
- Chance to roll item stats are affected by monster level. So a level 58 item from a level 63 monster will have a chance to roll level 63 stats now. The only difference in items now should be their base armor and DPS. At least if you're on MP 1+. On MP0, item rolls will be based on monster level(can be 60/61/62/63).
- MP 0 has the same loots tables as before
- MP1 - 10 has the same loot table through each act since all enemies are lvl63. (this means you can farm each act again)
- They increased the legendary drop rates
- fixed some of the stats on legendaries making them not useless
- New loby system is nice too (you can sign out of a group game / go to AH / Check back in and still have a stack. Same if you get disconnected )
There's some specific class changes as well ... quite a bit actually.
