To be fair, torment levels DO affect the amount of drops, just not the actual stats when they do drop. And at 70 there are items that are torment specific.

Abolutely. The game is extremely addicting with the new additions.
I thought only torment (compared to expert etc.) affects amount of drops, not the lvl of torment.
I'm not sure where people get this from. The slider even tells you it does. An extra chance at a legendary. Not trying to call you out or anything but this is something I've seen said over and over.
As for how much of an extra chance there is comparing t1 to lets say, t4. I don't think it's very much.

Ha, my first tip posted in the US-GAF clan has gone full circle. COTA runs are back in the limelight.
2.5 billion exp/hour running Crypt of the Ancients
Wrath of the Berzerker, rend, charge. Killing regular mobs and ignoring elites.
Wizards can do the same thing with Archon.

I kind of disagree. I think monk is still strong but it plays more or less like it used to. WD and Wiz are a lot more fun than they were. Haven't tried DH or Barb builds yet.

Having 1-2 active defensive skills is not a bad idea, especially if you're getting smacked, teleport or diamond skin are good choices. Icicle familiar combined with electrocute is also crazy freeze-proc CC.
Give prismatic armor a shot too, really helpful if you don't have much all-res. Would be an improvement over ice armor unless you're mostly taking melee damage.
Huh, I just checked and you're absolutely right, my best guess is that there is no additional magic find so I (and others) just assumed there is no increase in dropchance.

Is there a neogaf clan? Or is it just a community atm?
There are Legendary items that have better chances of dropping Health Globes (some skills too in some classes).
In the beta they used to spawn so much they would fill up the screen. And they comboed with other health globe items (like get resource from picking up a globe) and you became a death machine spawning globes all over the screen.
Alternatively you can just start getting gear which has +health bonus to health globes. Its a secondary stat so it doesn't compete with anything good.

Monk has been fun for a long time, though I could see how people who only ever played cookie cutter FoT/SW would have thought it was a boring class to play.
LOVING the new dashing strike. Nothing like pissing off your party members in Keep Depths by dashing right through all the walls while they have to go around. Not sure if that's intended behaviour or not, but whatever - it's fun to tele like a wizard.

nah man I played DH on the beta and was like WOOW this is my class...then I played the monk and quit the beta at like level 8 I was in LOVE I played the monk for like 400+ hours lol before I started the barb. Sooo much time wasted lol I really should have just got 250 and got god gear.. I was stuck in act 1 inferno for 6 months lol then PL came and started a barb and was amazed and got really lucky and was able to get to MP 8 on my barb and I had basically quit the monk... I still can't even do Torment 1 on my monk not really such what to do.

Man if PL was out at launch I'd definitely be 100 :/

Yeah, a lot of the changes make it a bit more feasible to have different skills on, plus the plevels and general adjustments. It was so hard for me to leave Serenity off my bar because it was so useful but Inner Sanctuary/Forbidden Sanctuary does the trick and gives me the boost I need.

A fat EP explosion is one of my more rewarding experiences.
I already posted the Monk build in the other thread:
Inner Sanctuary (Forbidden Palace)
Dashing Strike
Cyclone (Implosion)
Exploding Palm (Essence Burn)
MoC (Overawe)
Random Spirit generator
You Dash in, Cyclone, Sanctuary, Palm targets, MoC and watch fireworks.
I wish they had given us an extra active skill slot as well in the expansion.

True, I just was trying to point out getting that particular legendary with those particular stats, especially if it had a good secondary modifier, with better stats wont be as easy therefore wont be useless as stated.
But maybe Im just being optimistic. Heh!

wishes it were bannable to say mean things about Marvel
Yeah, I thought they were coming back up at 6 PM EST. That was 20 minutes ago, I guess it's taking longer than the launcher says.
Oh well, guess I'll play Dark Souls instead for now.
I'm just going to look at this in a positive light, it gives me time to player other games! D3 won't suck my soul away for a few minutes longer.
Should have slept longer!
take a nap!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haven't seen that classic GIF in a while.
Gold prices were wack right when servers went up, a few of us managed to cash out at well over what the going rate was last week (like ~$3.25 or so?). Dumped 500 mil at $5.50 at stack or so into bnet balance so I'll clear $44 and some change. So RoS just paid for itself, and I still have 170 mil going into that. Thank you based Blizzard
So good.
Yes. Mystic is a massive gold sink.
Hmm it is? I barely have gold as it is lol, got like 3 million :c
You'll start getting a lot more gold to offset that.
Blizz will no longer have to worry about it imbalancing the market once the AH leaves.
I guess they have to worry about players being able to spam the Mystic though to get perfect gear.
Repeatedly rerolling a stat causes it to become more and more expensive. It gets REALLY pricey. You can end up spending millions on a single reroll on a yellow. And legendarys take more gold than yellows (IIRC) on top of the special mats needed for them.
So yes, you need to hang on to as much gold as you can.
