But how does it work?
I once picked an item and it said I unlocked the Transmog... Does it mean I can apply the skin to other items later on, freely?

There's a small gold cost, but yes. You visit the Mystic, drop an item in to her window that you want to alter and you get a UI showing all the possible options. She has a whole bunch of white sets that you unlock by levelling her, as well as the legendary items you've picked up to choose from.

 

[styl3s]

Hopefully Comcast comes out early to do what they were supposed to last week.

I am ready to level a pali- i mean crusader.

 

[firehawk12]

Got a 2hr legendary at lvl 70 .

Same.

Act 5 was really a bust, as I have only replaced half my gear. I had to bring it down to Expert in order to take out the final boss. I have a feeling that this is going to be an Inferno grind again... at least for me.

Meanwhile, I really can't believe the ending of the game. Why didn't I see that coming?

 

[Wolf Akela]

omfg, only been playing for an hour

 

[joesmokey]

Yes please

This level 70 gear gets quite ridiculous.

 

[davidsaurus]

omfg, only been playing for an hour

Shame it's 61 - still will be hard to replace for a while I imagine!

 

[Witchfinder General]

I still can't connect. Every single time it fails. Am I the only one?

 

[Tom Penny]

No internet until a freaking tech goes to my house in 2 days.. Great timing. This blows.

 

[ferr]

Crusader level 70 hype! My femsader is back, lets see if this time I can make my Captain Crusader build.

makes me wonder if that is a level 69 or 70 ring there.

 

[dk_]

Is there no stack indicator for Elemental Exposure?

 

[Bisnic]

So is it true that you need to kill Diablo to unlock Act V? Even if you killed him many times in the past?

 

[Lumine]

No, you can select act V on the menu screen right away. At least I could last night.

 

[DSmalls84]

Only got to play about an hour before work this morning but i jumped from 60-63 pretty quickly. Thinking I'll get my Wd to 70 and then level the crusader. A couple points:

-Pirahnas are awesome
-finding marquise/imperial gems and useable rares like crazy is going to take some getting used to.

Seems like an awesome expansion so far.

 

[goldsoundz]

Amazon is killing me. My collectors edition hasn't shipped and my card isn't even being processed.

 

[gocubs]

It was already selected for me when i started playing this morning.

 

[gutterboy44]

Only had a chance to start Act I with a Crusader up to lvl 6 this morning before work, but I'm liking the class so far. I look forward to getting Cameltoealot up to lvl 70 as quickly as possible. I think I will go adventure mode with my existing toons and wait to do Act V with my Crusader once I beat Diablo.

 

[Stormwatch]

Amazon has a charge pending on my card, but it hasn't shipped yet. It just says "Shipping Now". I'm getting really close to cancelling Prime...

 

[Rhaknar]

err how do you change what spells go in each slot again? I cant seem to find how to do it

what I mean is, for example I have secondary spells as an option atm for the first slot, but I want a voodoo spell instead.

 

[joesmokey]

How are you guys beating Torment+ in Act V? The gear check with

Spoiler

The Ram

is way too hard for my Wizard. Is there a strategy I'm missing for getting past that without dropping to Master?

Options -> Gameplay -> Elective Mode

[DSmalls84]

Took fucking forever on Torment, but he was generous

I mean you can't just show this screen without posting the drops? Right?

 

[goldsoundz]

Prime really started to drop in quality about a year and a half ago for me, so I cancelled my membership up until last week. Looks like things haven't changed.

 

[davidsaurus]

Yeah, pretty sure it's against diablo law.

Guys, can I have a list of skills unique to Reaper of Souls?
I have a friend that wants to buy D3 base for now, and wants to know what he will be missing (Other than Act V, Nephalem Rifts and Adventure Mode)

Also no Crusader at all, of course.

Elemental exposure is a debuff you put on the enemies, not a player buff they could put a counter on. I think there's a small visual effect for each type.

Are there any sites selling this at a rebate ? I'm trying to avoid paying full price for games, considering how quick they drop in price.

This being a Blizzard game, I doubt sites like GreenManGaming have this on rebate with a coupon.

 

[NaDannMaGoGo]

So I've just done it. Beat the last boss of Act V. I was playing on Torment 2 at first and then Torment 1 a bit later as I just didn't find enough upgrades, especially as far as weapons were concerned. Although I did find a Tal Rasha's Helm which opted me to go for the 4 set bonus combined with 3 lvl 60 parts of the set, two of whose (can you use whose here?) I was using anyways already.

This dropped from Act V boss:

as well as "Reaper's Wraps" recipe.

The amulet drop is rather nice. If I ever find other good pieces to go for a lightning build, which I would love, I already got a neat amulet with +20% light damage role. I would probably reroll the slot or ranged dmg reduction. But holy fuck... it requires a flawless imperial Ruby D:

the temptation to install this on my work computer is too strong. would probably run terribly but aaaaaaaaaa want to play during downtime ((((((((((( (i already have D2 on here lol)

I got mine from a site called cdkeys - seemed like the cheapest deal. CD Key resellers are your best bet. Not sure how cool it is to mention them though!

Sick roll honestly. And that mystic cost is not messing around :O

 

[DJ Lushious]

I'm in the same boat. What makes the matters worse, is that Amazon lists a delivery estimate of today by 8:00 PM. This is the second time Amazon has fubar'd a video game release date delivery for me in the past four days. I'm not getting Infamous until today and now it is looking like Diablo is going to be late, too.

 

[Cathcart]

Can't wait to get out of work today. Took the rest of the week off, woo.

Act V is basically "You'll never want to play the other Acts again"

So Act V is basically 2 years ago?

 

[Anoregon]

There's something I don't understand about Crusaders that hopefully someone can clear up for me...

Skills like Shield Bash and Blessed Shield say on the tooltip that they add X% of your shield's block CHANCE as damage, not block VALUE. How can this even matter? If you have a 20% block chance, and Shield Bash adds 300% of your block chance that's just an extra 60 damage, which is totally meaningless after the early game. Does it actually use the block value and the tooltips are wrong, or is something else going on? Am I just bad at math?

 

[joesmokey]

Last loot post for awhile, I promise:

Pretty nice secondary .

 

[Bradach]

I'm working from home tomorrow. Does anyone know if EU maintenance is cancelled this week too?

Although I did find a Tal Rasha's Helm which opted me to go for the 4 set bonus combined with 3 lvl 60 parts of the set, two of whose (can you use whose here?) I was using anyways already.

In this case I'm pretty sure you would use 'two of which'.

No more damage from Arcane Turrets? They HEAL you now?

You're invincible.

 

[garath]

I was a little surprised I got into the game this morning with no issues at all. I only got to play 15 min or so before work but dinged 61 and already got an amulet upgrade lol.

DH's vengeance skill is pretty awesome.

 

[Rhaknar]

god I love the witch doctor now that pets dont die from 1 hit, aving so much fun. have died a few times on torment 1 to some nasty packs, and so have my pets, but nothing like stupid inferno was before.

Also, piranhas!

can someone explain what this paragon thing is? I dont know how to level it or what exactly it is

 

[Shadow780]

The Blizzard crack, I have rebounded. Lord save me.

 

[Ourobolus]

Yeah, I have one of these on my DH. It's amazing when I need a heal, just stand on the point of origin of an arcane blast and keep getting healed. Move to a new one when necessary.

 

[Strider]

Well Gaf I did it. I called in "sick" to work. I actually hadn't planned to but I slept like shit last night and the hype is getting to me. Work would've gone by so slow today.

I actually feel kinda bad about it because I never miss work but I'm sure I'll forget those feelings once I start playing

That looks awesome. I have to find one of those for my Barbarian. Arcane Turrets are pretty much the only thing that can hurt him fast enough to kill him, and dodging them is not a viable option sometimes.

 

[robochimp]

Once you hit max level 60/70 your experience goes towards an account wide paragon level which let's you apply bonus stats in 4 categories. You can make up for shortcomings in gear you really want to use with enough paragon levels
