Could you link to your build or something? I have ~50k health and 22k dmg buffed but some champion mobs are really tough, even really early on in the act.

increased magic find, mobs dropping rares, shit is popping son!
Naw it's still pretty rare. I got 2 today but I played a shitton lol. Got really lucky.
I'll pay you in love, thanks and happiness.
And every ounce of what little gold I have.
I'm at 30k hp and give or take 16-20k damage and I struggle too lolol. Granted my equip has been garbage for quite some time.
So. as a moderately geared barb I'm just a killing machine in act3 with the changes. Not even a tank...just sort of a 2hnd hybrid that doesn't even have a "new" 2hndr yet. Only about 37k dps with a few defensive cooldowns and it is just like a hot knife through butter. I die once in a while but without any worry about enrage or health return the game is just incredibly easy.
After two paragon levels, nothing decent dropped even though normals. Still not mad because of the paragon level. Bar filling carrot worked on me.
Also, love the little changes in animation form how giant the hand of burning palm is to molten elite death explosion.
Basically whatever act you were doing before... add 1 to it. Co-op feels just right now, a couple well geared players can cover up for 2 under geared players and farming is more efficient as long as someone doesn't afk.
Played Ghom, still a bitch for melee but more manageable. I like the little touches like potions, tomes and jewels colored light blue, some ui changes and the aoe display of molten and frozen explosions and getting exp for those massacres.

What builds are you having success with now?
What builds are you having success with now?
2-3 hours of farming and no legendary, and mostly junk rares that won't even sell for 300k 
On the brightside, paragon levels make me feel like I didn't waste my time (completely). Multiplayer also keeps it fun. Plowed through Act 2 and 3 with Sigma and others.
As for the Wicked Wind nerf, it's definitely noticeable, but still playable. This is with 40% crit rate. Despite all the other buffs to hydra, etc. I still enjoy the wicked wind + Archon build the most, as I get to hop between melee and ranged throughout a run, rather than be 24/7 kiting with Blizz/Hydra or Orb/Hydra.

almost paragon 5, im lovin this patch. being able to cancel auctions is the best thing ever. On another note, I would solo farm if I were you. I tried some act 3 farming in a group and it was nothing but severly undergeared people wanting to be carried, i asked all 3 people what their dps was and all of them were between 10-15k dps, thats way too low for Act 3 inferno IMO.

Any idea what I should list this for guys? I haven't played in a bit my pricing is all off.
Hmm looks like +14% crit chance from old and new Natalya is possible after all.

What build are you using? Is it Spectral Blades Deep Cuts, Wicked Wind, Archon, Diamondskin, Energy Armor, Frost Nova? Passives apart from Critical Mass?

I'm using this exact build pre 1.04! For passive, CM is a must. The other ones I use are galvaning ward (for the life regen) and glass cannon. Sometimes, I used cold blooded or arcane dynamo.
I'm waiting to get off work so I can try post 1.04 D3....

lol, literally after posting that, I get in a new game and with 2 stacks, I get a legendary. Too bad its shit though.
Same thing dropped for me
. I have 3 60s, but only 1 inferno ready character (DH). The other two (Barb and Wizard) are still rocking level 40 gear in some slots. Anyway I got a few upgrades for my Barb while playing so I thought I'll give act 1 a try and this dropped from a trash mob. Man it would have been quite awesome with a slightly higher dps roll and vit or IAS instead of strength.As it stands, it isn't worth more than a million according to the current AH prices.
Damn, 30%!
Yea, like you said, combined with a big ruby, thats like more than 50%
EDIT - Actually, I tried searching for rings with exp bonus. Are you sure their was actually a ring with 30% extra exp? I searched but only saw rings with like +30 experience, but not the flat percentage that the ruby gives. Cause most of the +exp stuff seems so minuscule, its like +50 exp for every monster kill, when mob kills I think give at least thousands of experience points per kill.
