Of course it does. That's a lot of bonus MF.

It's not really a forced extra item, it's an extra added roll that is independent of the other rolls. But it seems like there is a "reward for logging in today" legendary more frequently than there ought to be.

Haven't played this game since about June of last year...Maybe it's just me but has it gotten easier? Started playing with a barb and just beat act 1 no problem....it's like I didn't even have to try
It's much easier than before.

OK, that explains it. Haven't seen any of the crazy mobs yet either the invulnerable types that I remember being so annoying
They removed invulnerable minions and changed shielding so it's only one mob at a time and has a very noticeable graphic.

I know when they first introduced Monster Power, regular old Inferno became about equivalent to like MP3 or 4? I think?
I liked invincible minions. Fun and challenging. Rage timers were the worst thing ever though.

I think they took out invulnerable minions, I haven't seen that affix since I started back up. As a monk, my "favorite" is Arcane Molten Horde Shielding. I always know I'll have a blast playing Mario Bros. when I see those.
I had two arcane horde packs right next to eachother in Keeps 2. The entire screen was purple laser beams of death. I think one had frozen and another had vortex so as soon as I escaped the beams they'd just vortex me right back into the freeze balls and the lasers would shred me.
That one took a few deaths/respawns to take down, but 60k or so in repair bills later I managed it.
I think I have a screenshot of that somewhere it was so crazy.

I dont think it seems like much...you are basically paying a premium to craft with a guaranteed main stat.
Also they said demonic essences drop frequently and they got all the plans pretty quickly.
I've been saving gems and brimstones and essences so I should get to craft a bunch. Tomes and Essences are going to go up a bunch I bet...probably could make some money buying tons of them and then selling them.

Yes its way easier and blizzard is still nerfing reflect damage in the next patch.
Bash (Instigation or Punish) or Frenzy (Vanguard or Maniac)
WW (Hurricane)
Sprint (Run Like the Wind)
WoTB (Thrive on Chaos)
Battle Rage (into the fray)
War Cry (Impunity) - if you need resistance
Ruthless, Weapon Master, and whatever passive you need. I like Animosity for low MP levels, then I usually take Tough as Nails for higher MP.
Lol guess saving up gold and buy items off auction house is better bet
It's ptr, drop rate might be higher so its easier for people to test out the new crafting system

I dunno why they'd do that, they probably want real experience testing their drop rates.
Plus we havent heard any changes...I don't think they are making the drop hard, I think they want this added gold sink in and people using it.
We've got a WW Barb in our group and there's a known problem with disconnecting from the game while whirlwinding. It has cost him many a nephalem stack.

That's odd, I've never experienced this. Is it something that's only been happening in the last week or so? I do get rubber banding pretty bad every now and then with my ww barb that's cost me a death or two.
Seems odd that he's losing his stacks. If you rejoin your party you keep the stacks & it's been that way for a while now. Same with ubers - you can jump back in after they die and still get your organ.
Maybe suggest to your friend that he try running the game in windowed full screen mode. I had d/c's when using tempest rush, but haven't had a single one since I switched to windowed.
I think he said he runs in windowed full screen. Anyway, as a Monk I've experienced maybe one DC total.
Triumvirate doesn't roll Arcane Power on Crit naturally. That is the best choice to get on it.
Triumvirate is for arcon mode or other high dps purpose. If you want do crit mass build, better go with chandoto

My WD is always lf ubers, not super geared: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/liferebooted-1675/hero/1228571 but I do offer machines, I normally keep some on me. Bnet tag is Liferebooted#1675
Read the preview notes, the plans are a 50% chance drop from bosses on any MP in Inferno. They're not meant to be hard to come by, they are meant to provide a money sink.
Do you have the serial it generated and its restore number written down somewhere?

Got some interesting upgrades. I was given an amulet and bracers which, together, nearly doubled my effective hit points without impacting my DPS at all. Suddenly those MP4 key runs were a lot less threatening, even with 520 resist all. The knockback on the Strongarm Bracers is kind of distressing though, because it's like elite mob knockback, it really sends them flying.

Ive found 3 absolutely trash legendaries this week in two nights of playing for 1-2 hours each.
having a lot of fun with this game now. My arcane orb build can do MP4 runs and my DPS is sitting around 90k with my Triumvirate
Finding a legendary that will sell on the AH or that you can use is pretty rare in my opinion. Most of the time its brimstone time.
The last good legendary i found was lacuni prowlers with 6 CC, 9AS, 50 STR.
I want to say that you have a massive amount of life. Too much as strange as that sounds. You could easily switch out the gems in chest for Dex gems for a DPS boost.
I had really good luck, found a Natalya's Ring really early on with 126 Dex, 72 Vit, 9% IAS and life regen, and more recently an Inna's Radiance with 165 Dex, Vit, 6% CC, fire resist and resist all. My SO found a pair of Strongarm Bracers with 167 Dex, 52 Vit, 8% life, extra armor and 4.5% CC last night and gave them to me.
Also found a Strength-based Echoing Fury that sold for 15M and a Strength-based Mempo that sold for 10M. But between those of course, easily 20 others that became brimstones or sold for 100k.
Probably. I just got the amulet yesterday and went from 30K to over 40K, so I can regem later today provided I've got enough Emeralds.

Wow they really did nerf this game a lot since release. I just cleared every boss on normal literally just standing there using bash as a barbarian. I didn't move around or anything. Beat diablo had to be less than a minute lol. Lvl 31 using no gear whatsoever from auction house. Everything was either dropped or crafted. But at least they fixed drops. Actually found 2 legendaries on normal playthrough. Never found one when I played back at release w/ demon hunter up to act 2 inferno.
Set to MP10 on normal/nm/hell. Makes the early game much more interesting, plus you'll be gaining a level every couple of packs for the first while.
My DH clocked level 60 at the start of A2 hell using MP10 & cain's set. Suppose I should get him through the rest of hell and inferno at some point...

I've been selling a ton of stuff and flipping a bunch I turned 30M into 73M in about 2 weeks.
However the AH is slow and annoying. I wanted to snipe a pair of Str/Vit Life 12% Vile Wards and I put 20M in and bid at the last 20 seconds cause I knew it would take long, it ended up taking like 35 seconds auction ended and it said Outbid. As in my bid was accepted and then someone else snagged it before,dunno about all that felt I got screwed.
Ughh. Shoulders you cant really win I'm trying to keep around 200str and High Vit and keep the Life % while getting 70-80 AR. I was gunna sacrifice like 300 dps and 5k health for 75AR...I guess the extra armor and regen on the Wards make it more attractive but damn anything worth anything is priced so high.
I'm starting to feel like prices are going to have to come down. There's a lot more people playing, but they're also getting a lot more drops and supplying the AH much better lately. Meanwhile there isn't a corresponding increase in gold, because folks don't really farm gold. If anything, they pull out their credit card.
It's perfectly viable, if only because of the crafters. Will be even moreso in 1.0.7. You spend your gold combining gems and making gear instead of getting the best roll on the AH, which is valid. It might even save you gold, as long as you don't mind missing out on the set bonuses. The problem currently is, all the best rare patterns are ilevel 62, which means they can't be as good as 63 rolls or the enhanced low-level items that drop off of elite packs periodically.
I somehow managed to sell all four of my RMAH items on Monday/Tuesday at decent prices, but I haven't been back on the store since I listed them on Monday.
davepoobond
you can't put a price on sparks
yes to inferno nerf, but they added more difficulty levels, so you can nudge your way back up to what it kindasorta was like.
