Can you equip pet handling on a pet to get the boost?
I don't know, there are some less-than-big operations with closed servers. It's all speculation though. I really hope they do answer the question.

Everything is easy to kill with an Embermage. The only challenge involved is not dying, which becomes easier the faster you can kill things. It's the only reason I'm not playing on Elite. Random ranged attacks can one-shot me.
The lotion bottle is pretty well hidden. It won't show up like every other item does. You have to look around the whole for a green bottle. Put the lotion in the bucket and you get bunch of gold and a helmet as a reward. The helmet's name has a very relevant reference
Grinding Gear springs to mind. I don't know how those guys do it tbh, but I have very little knowledge of server maintenance costs. I wouldn't think it would be cheap.
I'm interested to know how much it's costing Blizzard to continue running Diablo 2, seeing as that game makes them almost nothing.
Yep, did that as well. Works.

Fuck yeah, I'm basically invincible. Between Aegis, Forcefield, Healing Bot and my massive bonuses from physical and magic enchantments/gems, my health bar doesn't even move. I love it.
I'd like to know this myself.
EDIT: No wait, I remember now. Just progress with the main line quest and it'll open up.

What difficulty are you playing on?
It's a main quest area. The story will send you there at some point.
Disappointed that flavor text isn't Soul Reaver related.
Pretty sure normal. I played the same all heal/support build on Veteran and things can get ugly real quick if you are standing too close to some mobs. Especially the part before the last boss was ugly.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
Start an internet game and check "randomize environments?" That's just a guess, I don't really know.
Either reroll your world by making an internet or LAN game, or quit your single player game, make it again, and just go to the boss's area again. I think that makes enemies respawn but doesn't reroll the world. Gonna check on that now, actually.
Welp, didn't work for a certain boss in act 3. Guess you gotta reroll each time.

What class should I pick if I want to roll greatswords and hammers... Engineer?
Yep. I guess Berserker would work too though.
Any class can use any weapon, soooooooooooo
I put up a video of me playing a random map on my Embermage. It shows the MapWorks, an act 3 area, and a few act 3 monsters. If you're curious about how a typical Embermage might play at higher levels, or think you're doing Embermage wrong, maybe the video will help.
Well. Having an embermage fitted with tons of strength to wield and make some damage with 2H weapons is a bit of a stretch, dont you think?

This game....man this game. I think this is a contender for my GOTY easily. I just wish I could convince my Diablo buddies to buy this but they are all stuck on Guild Wars 2.
I am still not out of Act 1. I keep having fun with different classes (the usual way I treat a game like this). If the other acts are as good I am just blown away by the quality of this game taht you only have to pay 20 bucks for.

i can agree with that. my friend kept dying in the 23-25 dungeon lol.
There was some worry during the beta that they put all the variety in the game up front in act 1 to make the game look better. I would say this isn't the case. I'm sure people will have a certain act that is their favorite, but I don't think it'll be like D2 where everybody hates and wants to skip act 3. You have good things to look forward to. Act 2 and 3 are both as great as act 1, if not better.

Anyone else feel like vit and focus give hardly any health or mana?
Every class ends up a glass cannon except the engineer because he's got tons of healing and mitigation stuff.
I really enjoy the setting and theme of Act 3. A mix of a couple of traditional RPG area types that works well, with cool enemies that have awesome entrances.

This is great to hear.

The witches' bat swarm preceding their appearance, and werewolves swinging down from the rafters of houses!
Yeah, those dungeons are really beating the living hell out of me too. I think I may just need a new weapon with more leech. GL finding one of those though.

The wisp? but then again i die too because i haven't upgraded my armor since forever lol.
IV is short. III is more or less the same as II.
The wisps are really hard, but it's most difficult because the ghost that can spawn them moves slowly. So, you have to run in the middle of the wisp pack to get the ghost, or risk more wisps. I think I've found a good way to kill him but it's pretty challenging.
Edit: Found a greatsword with 30 life on hit + a socket. Much better now that I am doing more damage and getting life on hit back.
Exiting the game works for me. I did go through a different dungeon between the two visits though. Not sure if it's dependent on time, changing your waypoint portal or going through another dungeon.

Cannongineer is so good. Anyone else going that route instead of melee?

I am and I agree.
By not using other skills that use up your charges, you can spend them on the force field all the time and be invincible!
What stats should I pump, I wonder? Not focus since I don't need execute chance, not vit since I don't need block chance and I try to stay out of melee range anyway...

try the demo. it's on steam or on their site.
I just started, not a huge loot game fan, but I'm enjoying it. For comparison, I didn't really like Diablo X that much, just seemed bland. This has more variety. If I had to pick my favorite loot-whore games, it would be this and Titan Quest.
Now, is there any crafting in this game? I'm probably mixed up, but I thought I read something a while back about it.

So has anyone else having issues with the menu saying strict nat? It seems to be some sort of bug I can play other games online but this one is giving me a problem
I don't have the computer yet, I'm looking at some for school (I get too distracted by my desktop PC). But since it's more than a MBA, I decided not to get it.
Anyone play this on a new Macbook Air 13" with the Intel HD 4000? If so how does it run at native resolution?
Jesus fucking christ. I just started act 3 and act 2 was fucking long. I've spent 15 hours already :\
The area immediately north of the enclave is full of the beastly things if I recall correctly, especially one of the early quest caves and bosses.
I've been doing both, but since I can never seem to notice my normal skills or attacks charging the meter much I figured I would just put skill points in most everything that doesn't use charge. Plus I love how slowly the engineer uses mana, and I love the beam cannon animation. Set up for the team (healbot + force field), then sit back and THOOM THOOM THOOM if they don't need stuns.
