    As far as I remember, the prices are still quite a lot higher than in LoL, and they use the same principles. Think max price in lol was like 7.50 or so.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    You don't kill the elite. You just pop cooldowns and annihilate the very large amount of easy to kill and high density white mobs and log off. It's good because it's fast to clear and fast to reset and there's almost always a lot of mobs in there. It's also boring as all fuck. I wouldn't bother...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Well launch was launch, this is an expansion, supposedly the last wow expansion launch went well and even last time I played which was wotlk, there were only slight issues with server stability and shit. Also they have the AH off so that's one less thing that can be fucked up. Don't know, I'll...

    Can't find the official announcement, was probably in the Q&A but yeah I saw something like that on reddit. The euro time is coming later today, the NZ/australian time was posted already.

    Dark Souls 2

    If it's the one I'm thinking of, where Pate is(but that might depend on his story advancement and shit I don't know darksouls had the same stuff), you have to go all the way up, then drop down and open it from the other side, it's a "doesn't open from this side" door right? Don't really remember...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Iirc they said you could cause they weren't the same items, but I can't be bothered finding the post. The 70 version does a different effect, it casts lava on the ground and does damage over time over a large area instead of a shitty fireball. It can't be used at lvl 1 though. You'll probably...

    Dark Souls 2

    I went with a dex build and was using both bleed and poison, bandit knives with poison, and to be honest I think it was pretty weak. The upside is pretty much no boss that I've fought is immune to poison or bleed, unlike previous games. Mytha is obviously not a boss you want to poison, but other...

    Well the new occulus devkit is 350bucks and that's still a devkit, so 300 and potentially 250$ sounds about right if they're mass producing them. And that's a pretty decent price, it's kinda expensive if it turns out to be the next kinect and I'd be more inclined towards a PC peripheral simply...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Don't know if being in the room is combat though, but in normal with say the DH passive for 4.5%max hp per second and a shield you could probably stand still and not die to bosses anyway and see if it works. Could be done with trash mobs too for that matter, might actually be more interesting...

    Nope it's final, make sure to quality your shit before your vaal it at least and preferably socket it correctly if it has sockets. It's great for converting shitty uniques into potentially good ones it seems, wouldn't use them on anything of value unless you're wiping your ass with exalteds though.

    I'm fairly cautious about it, I think I'll wait for reviews and shit, maybe download the cracked version to check it out before I buy it, or wait for a sale later this year. Glad to see more of these games though, just hope it's not dungeon siege 3 again.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Yeah plus there's not much competition aspect anyway, as long as you're killing shit at a pace you find acceptable, you might as well play the shit you like. For example I like sentries on my DH, I rarely see builds with them but I think they're nice so I use them. With many legendaries the way...

    The top lol streamers certainly make more. The numbers that were semi official were about 0.0035dollars per ad per viewer(3.50 per 1000). About 60 to 70% of the viewers use adblock though, so you have to cut that off right away. Then you have to consider how often they run ads and how much they...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Most legendaries don't roll with a socket as a base affix. There's 3random magic properties, and the legendary affix is a secondary, that means 1 of them is the other secondary and 2 of them are primary affixes. That's 2 chances for a socket, plus you can reroll whichever you don't want, other...

    There's a secret with 2 chests at the end, but it's mostly just a bellkeeper covenant area, fairly pointless I think. The other one had more useful stuff. On Pyro yeah maybe it's not perfect if it's your only way of doing damage but I mostly used it as a supplement, the thing though is it...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Piranha is really good and otherwise WD's damage is pretty high if there's a monk grouping up shit. Slam Dance is worth the spot definitely I'd say. Wizards are at a spot currently though where you can just brind more wizards and not hurt anyway, and it's arguably even better in ros with black...

    If it's a 3rd party, limiting the API isn't going to do shit. WoW has all these available through the API and the mods don't cast shit for you, cause the mods can't actually perform actions without you performing an action. It's not automated, it's simply information. Mods can tell you what...

    Install Battle.net launcher and launch the game if you're in beta, that's all there is to it, they flag accounts.

    Yeah it's much faster as a group, I did it solo both for the challenge and cause I didn't know anyone who'd come anyway but it's definitely not really worth it. Also torment 4 was mostly because of being a DH, I don't think other classes would do it as easily. I mean, at the gear level I had...

    Wow the last boss was anticlimatic as fuck, had to be one of the weakest I fought. In general I'll echo what Derkon said a few posts up, bosses are quite easy compared to trash. Probably a large part due to having played DS1 and such so used to basic mechanics but other than Mytha and the...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Not sure what you mean but every legendary and set items scale up to 70, just like they scale up to 60 atm. They drop at the same level as you are. So they don't need a set, you'll just need to find the same items again once you're 70.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    No. There's 3 portals, you NEED at least 3 machines. Each uber can drop one different organ, you need the 3 organs to craft the ring, recipe is on act2 vendor or maybe it's act3, one of the vendors anyway. Since the droprate of organs is random, and which portal you open is random, you need...

    It's not just about putting the screen 2inches from your eyes, you can do that yourself, it's the motion detectors in the headset that transcribe your head movements into movements in the game, creating a better immersion. I don't think it's the next big thing but it's definitely something...

    I saw people doing that on streams too, I thought it worked better when they dropped set items, cause you see OMG GREEN STUFF OMG OMG and then nope, it's a cain's headpiece or whatever.

    The +1/+2 stuff is just different drops, you don't upgrade them. Not sure where they drop you can probably find on the wiki. I only had the first one too but didn't use it, I only used it to walk in lava for the chests.

    Yeah I don't know noticed I had one but couldn't be bothered finding why or how to remove it. I had another before too that I also didn't ask for, something maniac or whatever.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I doubt speedrunning normal is better than farming a place, even including the guaranteed legendary, there's way too much "downtime" with moving from point to point in desolate areas and shitty quest stuff. It's more varied though but like if you don't mind farming specific areas you're probably...

    I did it fairly slow too, but a couple of deaths were due to getting boxed by the skeletons and stunlocking me in a corner. Best way I found to prevent that was to stay in the main area until the chariot was just about to arrive then run to the little alcoves so the skeletons get raped without...

    Can add poison or bleed to your elemental weapon, those don't suffer as much but since they reduce both the phys and elemental dmg of the weapon you'll hit for noticeably less on highly armored targets. My bandit knives generally hit for 2-4 on bosses. As a side note I've been using pyromancy...

    Are they lifesteal builds? Currently don't need to use defensive if you still have a good lifesteal weapon and high damage, but come RoS you'll have to do something.

    It's using the SC2 engine supposedly, so while it looks better than zoomed SC2, probably not much better. And yeah it looks fairly crappy. I mean it's ok and stuff and not a big deal for this type of game, hell LoL nowadays look even more dated, but definitely doesn't look top notch.

    I hate that this game has the same issue as DS1 in terms of weapon choice, half of the boss souls weapons are swords and a lot of item types are underrepresented. I wanted to make a DW dagger and on top of having shit choice for normal weapons, there's also only one soul dagger, which is kinda...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    On the twinking weapon stuff, while AH is gone you can still craft 20-30weapons and generally roll one with socket+reduced level req(might be like 10-15 instead of 18-23 though). I got a flail like that for my crusader, since you couldn't buy flails on the AH and I wanted the chance to roll...

    I one shot it while I was exploring the zone for easy loots, then later when I came back to really clear I noticed there were switches on the way that raise platforms and would have made the fight easier. He's basically like a trash mob. There's a few bosses like that, skeleton kings, the fat...

    Btw they're having a weird bug atm with people logging in naked. Relogging fixes the problem and your gear doesn't actually disapear, but if you play HC you might want to double check everytime cause you'll die in one hit to anything if you're naked.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Sentries are pretty good imo, I used them most of the time, they do reasonable damage now, if the fight lasts for more than 5-6seconds then they're insanely effective in hatred. Granted if you're farming white mobs it's shit, it's mostly for rare packs and stuff which I kill. They'd be a fuckton...

    Oh I watched the end of that game, chat was spammed with the salt icon and yeah there was a lot of whining. Hero seems to work alright to me, typical assassin char. Wins 1vs1 all the time(or close to) but dies in seconds to focus fire.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    My opinion is that it goes Wizard > Monk/WD > Barb/DH or so. Barbs and DH are fine mind you and DH with the right gear is actually higher, but you do need the right gear more so than other classes(krider bow is insane for example and cindercoat is almost equally insane with cluster arrow...

    As I said I didn't check the last build, and that was a while ago, no one knows "right now" cause they shut down beta like what a month ago or so. Can expect some changes based on internal testing and what not so hard to say. I don't know about underpowered, I said a bit on the weak side but it...
