Diablo III |OT5| Finally out of Beta

If it works with elemental weapons, then the damage value shown on the inventory screen is wrong. I am pretty certain that value only applies it to physical weapon damage.
10% I believe. Even at 6% life steal a barb only needs like 83% damage reduction from armor/resists to break even. At 9% it's 75% reduction needed, which is pretty easy to get.
I'm inclined to agree, that just wasn't my first thought based on what I had read elsewhere which is what threw me off.
12% should be way more than enough. Even more so if they nerf reflect dmg like they are talking.
In the past week I have accumulated more gold than I have total in over 300 hours played since launch! Sold a Blackthorne's Jousting Mail and rare sword for 130 mil total, and bumped my damage from 40 k to 92k unbuffed. It took a while but it's finally starting to feel rewarding to play. I would post my profile but it hasn't updated yet.
Exactly how I feel. I can actually sell things now for a mil instead of 20000 gold.
Same here; the last week or two I've felt like I'm actually making progress, it's been pretty great.
Of course on my run just now though I got an Immortal King's Irons with a low Str roll and double Dex roll -_-. I did also get a pretty crap Inna's Temperance though, and those even at the bottom of the barrel go for 6 mil so at least I'll get a bit from that. In general though I'm actually having a harder time selling stuff, I think the market is definitely flooding and crashing at the same time.
Yeah I noticed that as well. It really is an all or nothing market where your items are worth a ton or nothing at all. Granted I'm selling a few things for 1-3 million, but most sales end up less than 100k gold and the big ones are 75-100 mil.
I haven't played this game since maybe a month after it originally released. They've changed up so much stuff.
Of course, the first thing I do is buy new weapons for my DH as his 800DPS 1-handers were due for replacement. My stupid ass bought 2 of the same one, not knowing that you could only equip 1 at the same time, so I wasted 400K that I'm currently trying to get back from the AH (I doubt I will).
What's the best grinding spot for gold, now? Someone told me farming Azmodan on Nightmare was the quickest, but I'm not seeing that much gold here.

Hmm, will it be stupid to spend 9.5M on this right now?
I'll lose about 1.3K HP, but gain 800 or 900 DPS, but the most important thing for me is that 61 AR
I gained about 13K DPS by switching to an AV helm, but lost a lot of AR while taking %10 fire damage
My lowest resist without War Cry is 482
I'm a barb BTW
Wouldn't you be better off with a rare ring? Or if you want green text get a Litany of the Undaunted which comes with all res and 150-170 strength as well crit chance and regen
Will do (yours and others previously listed) tonight.
I'm pleasantly surprised by how many players there are on this board. Wasn't expecting it very much, at least.
Bots grind for Gold.
Humans grind for items (and arguably Paragon).
Inferno A3 MP0 (default difficulty) is substantially easier now than it was before. Steamroll it, build up some PL, get some default MF% added on, and hope to find some beacon drops that aren't Gloves. Do this with other players to make the process enjoyable, if you're not doing so already.
Grinding for Gold in this game is a recipe for suicide.

Pc please, I know it isn't great but its my first set piece in 2k hour, lmao.

you played 2000 hours and have got one set piece? huh?
Bought a good (but not amazing) pair of Nat boots for 25 million; lost about 3k HP from my previous boots, but the all resist, armor gain, and 2-set bonus were totally worth it. What I didn't realize until I just checked is that since both of my current rings are pretty good in order to get a Nat ring (to complete the 3-set bonus) I'm going to need to spend 60+ million for a nat ring that has decent dex as well as decent crit damage %. Ah well.
Also I just put this up for 150, but I will sell this to anyone (US) here for 120, I really want to get rid of this before I go (mostly) on hiatus for Halo/CoD and would rather sell it to someone here anyway:
I assumed he meant 200 hours.
Also oh yeah, I've got enough keys to make 2 infernal machines. I haven't even tried doing that yet, is anyone going to be doing runs tonight?
And Juices, check out the Severe Crushers boots I have equipped here (my profile hasn't updated yet): http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/MrDaravon-1289/hero/11983827
If you want them I'll give them to you. They don't have MF and the Vit is lower, but other than that they're a complete upgrade for you, but I'm not sure if you want to make those tradeoffs or not.

In 3 hours ill be home to do sunday runs. I just need a act 3 key to make a machine. Those go pretty quick though.
Add me when you get home, MrDaravon#1289. Not positive I'll still be on then, but that way I can give you the boots tomorrow or something at least if you want them.
Weapon seems kinda shitty, but is this amount of LoH normal these days? I haven't played in forever.
That's a bit higher than normal IIRC, but not really that uncommon now no. I think 2-handers can roll twice as high as one-handers, so it's not super uncommon to see LOH over 1k.
Went from no set pieces to 2 in one day!
This one here is weird, I didn't realize vitality could roll so high. +514
I don't have 150 million to buy his
IIRC primary stats can roll up to 595 (or something weird like that) on 2-handed stuff. I don't think I've ever gotten a roll over 500 though, and only over 400 a couple of times.

Already explained on this very page.
Might be a good idea to go through the last couple patch notes. Lots of big changes.
no
i offer 50 mil. help out a fellow GAFer plz
Sorry I should of updated. It sold at auction earlier today, otherwise I would have hooked you up.
Man, I've ran that act 4 key warden like 20 times now and still no drop :/ And yes, I've had 5 stacks
The plans and keys are just account bound, not character bound right? Didn't you post that you had a Barb that could handle a little higher of MP?

I took your advice. Definitely far more fun farming with other players. I got a bad Ivory Tower, which is 1 more legendary that I've ever seen drop in Inferno.
I got this interesting drop:
It's probably terrible due to having low DPS and being slow as shit, but I haven't seen that high of a Dex modifier before.
Just curious, are you guys using something in particular to post your good drops? It's not that much effort to PrintScr and edit the screengrab in Paint.Net, but if there's an easier method I'd like to know it.
Will do! I'll be getting on in about 20 minutes, just finishing up the Dexter episode from tonight then it's time to kill some demon's, if you're on
I think I broke my Witch Doctor. I can spam bears for like 40 seconds nonstop now.
Here's MP7 Azmodan down in a minute and 20 seconds.

Those Dex/Vit levels are pretty common on 2 handers, as is the LOH. I found one with similar stats, a socket, and over 1000 dps and it still was worthless.
And with the 2 week ban of mine passing, I am back, GAF!....
Previously, on NeoGaf:
Yep, I was lucky. This sold for 100 mill on EU server, followed by a few 10-20 mill sale, which lead me to be able to have this gear. It is not "breaking the game" category, but it is good for me. Easy to farm on Mp3 or Mp4, feasible for MP5 ubers without deaths and for MP5 keyfarming as well.
Also, there is a very cool build based on sacrifice and bears, but NOT on -cd for zombie dogs on your equipment. I will share the details if any WD is interested, it only requires you to have one Thing of the Deep with a +20 yard range increase. That is the enabler for gruesome feast, grave injustice and the circle of life trio.

So, was I lucky or not?
If any EU Gaffer wants it before I put it up in the AH, do not be afraid. These stuff seems wildly expensive, so!

I had a good weekend this weekend. Upgraded both of my weapons and got some lifesteal. 124K DPS unbuffed now. RD is tankable now on MP6 when it used to slaughter me. I have 2.9 LS and 500 LOH. I'm at 2.4 APS now too. 740 RA and 5K armor.
Anyway ... the only piece I want to get an upgrade on is my helfire ring. So I sold 90m on the RMAH. That shit sold in seconds. I put it up in 45 million chunks. For a game that's "dying", people sure are still buying gold up fast.
Also ... I now have 3 each of the Eye and Spine. I hate that fucking fang. lol.

Is Archon take attack speed in consideration or is it better to roll it with the slowest, baldest 2 hand possible ?
