Not unexpected, there'd be some crazy silly combos if you could do that
Well poop, there goes Krider + Furnace. Krider + Sunkeeper might still work though, unless the restriction is on weapon-type, and not just class-type.

Hmmm awesome sounding stuff. Hopefully by the time it launches I've played enough Bloodborne and have a proper chair for my computer again. My last one got trashed in the move.
Maybe a dagger. Can DH's equip 1H clubs.

I feel like a freeze build could be pretty good again. Maybe I'm just mixing up my passives in my head lol.
Remember... they're gonna nerf CC builds into the ground with 2.3

Right, but I thought those nerfs were more to do with character skills and passives. Not really the gear?
Please correct me if I'm wrong. I was thinking the frostburn passive with dual weild and flying dragon passive.
EDIT: Could be great way to get rid of Tasker and Theo slot too.
Well... anything that can lock enemies in place will change (perma CC)
Probably the enemies will gain temporary immunity or something
For the implementation, I'm thinking of it as being three new "legendary effect" passive slots on your character, just showing up in a separate Cube interface.
Using Dahbomb's example, just picture three more selection boxes at the end of your passives page under a new Cube section, for example.
[Legendary weapon effect]: Flying Dragon
[Legendary armour effect]: Ancient Parthan Defenders
[Legendary jewelry effect]: RoRG
(Each dropdown has a list of all the legendaries of that category which you've fed to the cube)
Offhands, including shields, would probably be in the dropdown list for the legendary armour effect type. It's going to be interesting to see what mixing up 2H weapons and offhand effects can do for casters.
Edit: denied!
Looks like I was right... Offhand/Shields count in the weapon category:

Patch is sounding good, basically 1 more passive via a legendary for your class huh? All around good stuff, especially no rift trials and Torment X.
That's 3 more Legendary passives.
Also you can't use the Hellfire Amulet as one of them. So you can't have like 5 passives from your character.
Ready to lock up those servers harder than ever!
the most fun part is going to be collecting all the legs
edit: I hope this stupid cube is account-wide...
Yeah, hopefully. I bet it'll work the same way as transmogs.
Someone raised a good point on that reddit thread... no more need to hold on to as many legendaries just in case, so it frees up some stash space.

LOL! Now that you mention it, FD proc with DW is probably a terrible idea haha
Yeah but in S3 my stash is filled with just class sets and it's still a pain/almost full. But yeah, it'll be nice insta-salvaging mediocre immunity amulets and stuff since I can access the unique properties via cube.
Great news. It'd be such a pain finding all the rare legendaries per each character. This cube is going to be like a legendary checklist. I'm excited to collect them all lol
also a couple other points:
You can use passives of items in slots not equipped (like a shield, for instance)
When you destroy an item, it takes the maximum possible strength of the passive. (no hunting for the best of)
No stacking (like using the furnace passive on top of using a furnace)

Hoping they don't bring back +2000% drop rates on PTR, pretty much means impossible to get in to try.
Wat? Wow.
I've not played D3 since 2.2 landed, and even then I only played for a week... Has much changed since then? (Wizard).
Not much has changed since 2.2 dropped... 2.3 with korai certainly changes... well.. a lot
Going to be hard to test all the Legendary combinations without a high drop rate.
Very pleasantly surprised with the 2.3 changes coming up. I've been away from the game for a couple weeks so I checked Diablofans to see if anything had changed and bam.
Although everything they're putting in this patch makes me feel way less confident we'll see another boxed expansion. Or maybe that if there is going to be one it's a long way off. The cube + torment 7-10 seems like stuff they would save if one was remotely close.

Yeah that's how I feel as well, the cube is what I expected in an expansion and not a patch including the new zone and torment levels.
It's very confusing with what their plans are with D3. They could have made it a big microtransaction game by giving more stash space for $$$ but they didn't, and they keep bringing big content patches free.
davepoobond
you can't put a price on sparks
Oh man. I'm so confused. It sounds like collecting all of the legendaries will be fun I guess
Ha, right after there were a bunch of posts asking for them to just drop machines today too. Good timing. Here's the post:

Yeah, that's what I was expecting them to do. I bet they passed on that because coding around that behaviour of upgrading your stored roll would have made things too complicated. Need to do a lookup to see if that affix prefers a low or high roll, etc.

The /r/diablo mods put up a nice summary of the info on the Cube: http://www.reddit.com/r/Diablo/comments/3azusf/megathread_everything_about_kanais_cube/
They have said "right around the corner" and "sooner than soon"
So.... next week?
the corner is at least a month away and soon is anywhere between now and infinity days from now :/
