Just beat diablo on inferno hc, fuck yes! I know that it might not be much of a feat when playing barbarian and the difficulty is way toned down from what it once was but it still feels pretty fucking good =)
Had some real close moments along the way, those green exploding enemies in the keep was even more horrifying than ever before.

Sorry for the late response, was at work: http://www.reddit.com/r/Diablo/wiki/clustergrenades
And here's a video to give you an idea, it's super hilarious: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lw4FXAq7zQ4
To give you an idea, here is my DH prior to setting up Grenades. Then literally all I did was spend 2.2 million on a so-so Calamity with a socket and stuck a Radiant Star Ruby in there (Ruby gems wind up being better than Emeralds in Calamities, I forget exactly why but math reasons), and swapped out Hungering Arrow for Grenades. And just by doing that I could run MP10 relatively easy with that build, probably easier than a HA or Bolo and Trap build. And I could spend a little bit more time and money making tweaks to gear and skills to make it even more productive (throw caltrops and/or turrets in there, get a SoJ, etc).
In generally the Diablo subreddit and it's class specific sub (sub?) reddits are pretty useful, here's the DH one: http://www.reddit.com/r/diablo3demonhunters
It should stabilize. Right now there isn't enough supply in the AH to cover all of the demand from people jumping back in for 1.08.
I am sure that has partly to due with the gold value dropping too

Spinning to winning is still the best way
:O damn sold to early
No kidding I sold one at 110 mil, should've waited for 20 more lol. If it reaches like 200 I'm going to lol so hard. Man I should've bought a few when they were like 17.

sold mine at like 56mil... and all my others too... missed out on like 200mil ;__;
Yup, taking a break. Gold duping is confirmed and can be seen on just about any livestream doing Diablo 3 right now. Is likely in part (if not completely) responsible for the gem market exploding. This is bad and rampant enough where I'm legitimately expecting a rollback, don't want to put in any real time until I see how they respond.
Edit: Yeah, RS Emeralds are up to 120 mil and rising as this becomes more known. Bailing the fuck out, at least I didn't get any good legendaries since the patch hit.

Emeralds have gone up 6 mil since I made my last post. Now I'm going to stay on because I want to see how high they go lol. I didn't sell any, I'm just bummed because I don't want to spend any time leveling right now since I can't see how they don't do a rollback on this.
Edit: This is actually kind of amazing, ALL of the gems types and qualities are going for obscene amounts. I just unloaded all of my flawless square topaz gems at 27k a pop.

Yep. I did it once without knowing, and reported it immediately to Blizzard. They were surprised to hear about it.
I'm in the clear, but this is going to cause massive problems going forward.

Ooo fantastic. Thanks.
That sucks. I wonder when we'll hear something from Blizz.
From my experience, you need 1.7B to dupe.
Put the money up on the RMAH. Take it right back down.
RMAH glitch. It's hilariously easy and broken. There are people who literally have hundreds of billions now, and some of these streams have 2k+ viewers. There will be a rollback, the only question is how and what; the point of contention is that since the RMAH is involved that gets complicated and fucked for Blizzard on that end, so no one is quite sure how or what they can do. But the economy is straight up fucked if they don't do some sort of rollback.
Yeah, I'm wondering if maybe that's part of why there is the delay before transactions go through on the RMAH, is to give them breathing room if shit breaks like this? It's hard to say.
As far as the servers still being up, I have literally no clue. Like patches and simple fixes, it takes them forever to do?
Edit: I take that back, you can't get into the Auction House right now.
The bug was due to an overflow error related to the new 10m gold lot size when posting/cancelling for big enough quantities. It requires the RM side, so we couldn't have found it in PTR.
Sucks to be Blizzard right now. Those financial rollbacks will be a nightmare.

Holy shit almost 1 year from release and the game dies what the hell, even if there is a roll back the amount of possible damage this could do to people who bought things from the gold AH and put them on the RMAH is going to cause a lot of damage.
It's funny how only the really rich players can even do the dupe anyways.

Rock and hard place here.
No rollback: suddenly the economy is ruined as dozens of users have trillions of gold. Literally trillions.
Rollback: blizzard has to roll back thousands of credit card transactions. Fixes game economy, but costs Blizzard millions.
We'll see what Blizzard decides in the next episode!
Easy solution to the losses? A fresh, RMAH- and AH-less ladder.
EDIT: ah, apparently I missed the part about gold duping. Well, the AH-less ladder would still be a welcome addition.
Even Blizzard wouldn't be that stupid....I think.
It is kind of hilarious that they finally put out this patch that addresses all of these issues that everyone loves, right on the eve of the game's anniversary that has a gamebreaking dupe issue.
Really the only reason I don't think most people (including myself) feel any pity for them is that this all resulted directly from the RMAH, which most people seem to feel strongly shouldn't be there to begin with, sooooo

If they're going to do a complete roll back, why only take down the AH server?
