If anything Paragon leveling seems a bit slower than on PC. Anecdotal I know but pretty much everyone I know who is at Paragon level is going fairly slow despite play nearly all day yet when I was playing on PC I got the first 20 levels rather quickly. Especially when you consider the type of gear the console players are running.

Diablo III PS3/360 |OT| Bringing Hell to consoles

Well holy shit on a stick. I swore I would stop buying games for current gen consoles but god damn this version of the game sounds amazing.
Grinding like 40 hours for a trash legendary is not fun

Shit level 42 it's taking ages to reach 60
I was already melting enemies (level 47, Act 3 Nightmare) and just got a Balefire Caster that raised my DPS from 6k to 9k. This version is so hilarious in perspective if you've played the PC version. Also in addition to my Cains plans I also got a really good Buriza so that's already setting up my Scoundrel for farming purposes later so that's excellent.
Getting to lvl60 is a breeze compared to getting P100.
1-60 is probably less than 1% of the time it takes to get from P0 to P100.
As of this post, there are 494 members who have posted in this thread.
I'd put the over/under of those 494 to reach P100 within one year at ... 30.

Not to mention that most Legendaries I've seen mentioned in this thread are still trash.

Yeah I only got to 30 on PC. I just want to reach 60 I'd prefer someone to power level me
It's definitely slower for me. 45 hours on console and I'm at paragon 14. On pc in 50 hours (powerleveled, but still, add 16 hours) and I'm paragon like 55. Has to do with the density though I'd imagine.

Since when do legendary rings have the ability to call forth a treasure goblin when hit ?
Since a long time ago. That's just one ring though.

Witch doctor is still my favorite. I run around with poison locusts and nuke dogs non-stop. I found this crazy voodoo mask that turns me into a skeleton and constantly spawns 2 mimics

Jesus, you guys are blazing through this. I am just a paltry level 19 searching every nook and cranny in Act II, lol.
Anyway, the drops seem pretty balanced so far to me. I have found only one legendary early on, with the occasional rares here and there. Overall, the feeling of progression, growth and gradually better loot seems like it is tweaked about right from what I can see. Having a blast.

Most people who are loot hungry and don't really care much about collecting all the Logs/Side Quests/Exploration are just going to blow through the campaign as fast as they can to get to Inferno. You also have to realize that some people here have already played it on PC so they know where to go and what to do... as well as skip all the cutscenes.

The additions of the different difficulties aside from the usual Nightmare, Hell, Inferno, etc is quite awesome. Thoroughly enjoying nightmare atm on Master II difficulty and the increased spike in difficulty is more fun and things feel more rewarding.
Also if anybody is playing on psn and wants to do stuff, my id is in my profile.

Just finished Nightmare at level 51. Aside from messing around with MV1 just a bit (DH is a bit squishy still for that, although I just got Gloom so that'll probably let me do MV1 now) I've played only on Normal difficulty and have gotten 27 Legendaries so...yeah. So far it's still been a pretty even mix of useful upgrades, trade-offs (ex. high dex but no vit), or trash excluding the plans. I think only two of the 27 were for a class that wasn't the one I was playing. The legendary drops ramped up considerably in Act 2 and 3 of Nightmare though, 10 or more were probably just in Act 3 Nightmare so I don't know if I just got a crazy run there or not, but in literally 5 minutes I got 3 legendaries that took my DPS from 6k to 11.5k (and I was already breezing through the content).
Edit: Has anyone seen any Hellfires crafted yet on Console? I wonder if they can roll absurd stats now or something.

Just hit level 15 on my Monk, and just got my first Legendary:
Seems pretty decent for a Monk, yes?

Hey guys, If I played Diablo 3 on the PC for 200 Hours spread across 4 characters, Barbarian hitting 80+ easy and being put off by the Auction House, should I get the PS3 or wait for the PS4 version?
I'm iffy about screen-tearing and unstable FPS, I just want something to satisfy my loot craving until the patch+expansion reach the PC version.
Thanks.

Personally, as I was saying in my review, I couldn't get into a couple of the guys the Witch Doc was one. I am not sure why
I tried (7 hours) but just couldn't really enjoy the gameplay. So odd as its everything I would normally like.Phat Michael

None of this paragon stuff is mention in the manual is it? This is demons souls levels of vagueness to me.

You'll learn soon enough that one item is trash once you're level goes up. I'd focus on hitting level 60 and just store/sell the gear. Good job! I didn't get my first Legendary until I got to Inferno with my barb. I was grinding to level 60 with Wizard and all I got were some very good rares.
I don't think I'll get it on console. My lvl 60s are all waiting for the expansion. I hope it does real well on console too. I can't wait to go back.

Are console gamers getting one-shotted in Inferno yet.. I remember that feeling like it was yesterday.
Normal - Hell is basically a cake-walk. Inferno on increased MP was when it got rocky. Laser beams and ice balls tore me apart, literally.

I thought the max move speed was like 12%. My guy is currently at 25 with (2) 13% pieces. I guess it maxes at 25
It doesn't lower the level req of other gear, only the piece which has the level req reduce roll.
Ah, that makes it kinda pointless. Thanks.
Not really. Think about rolling great legendary weapon which has the ilevel of 56 and a level reducement roll by 11. That means you can use that weapon on a 45lvl toon.
Sure, it's a really situational roll, but sometimes you can get really good stuff with level reducement roll. As for example Yoshi got a killer 2h, which had way higher stat budget than normal loot at that level.
You are doing it right.
This is the way to play if youre completing it for the first time.
I really dont get all the "just want to be 60" or "still no legendarys at lvl10".
Do people think this is a mmo or something?
(I also dont get why people rush to max lvl in mmos)
Is it better than what you were wearing?
Then it is pretty decent.
Will it still be good once you hit lvl17?
Probably not.
Inferno has been fixed months ago in the pc version and is the same in the console version.
You wont get oneshotted unless you up mp or just stand still all the time.
Yes, you get 1/5th.
Its basically the only thing they are usefull for in higher difficultys.
alright thanks.

What is paragon levelling? Like what does P0, P100 etc even mean? How do I access it.
So MP1-5 is monster power? I can only set it up to MP5? On PC it's higher? A y point in setting this before Inferno? I'm playing just "normal" first playthrough.
