    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I think the incremental increases in HP are 60%, damage is 45%.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    It wouldn't be though. It's not her money, it's our money. She's offering to spend our money, yay? I'm starting to wonder if the same people that have a problem with their SO's salary are also the same ones that keep separate bank accounts.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Grats on your new ring for life, bro. Wonder if that can be applied to all legendary drop rates. Looks like 20% increase across all difficulties. So your dps has to increase by 60%/1.2 to move to the next level, toughness not withstanding?

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Depends generally on your class and more specifically on your ability. For monks and barbs, LoH is pretty damn good. Monks especially because their spirit generators don't suck and have high proc coefficients, which determines how much LoH you actually get when an ability damages a mob...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I'm pretty sure you contradicted yourself in the same sentence. Wouldn't you need to run the same errands if you were single? Why does there need to be some sort of "equilibrium"? Why is salary inherently a unbalancing factor? If your gf is goofing off while you do errands(and doesn't make...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Ok, that's different and kind of what I was expecting was happening. There's a difference between both people being ambitious and just getting paid differently, and one person being lazy that just happens to be the one being paid less as well. There's confounding factors, obviously, getting...

    Just a note on Alkaizer, he's currently using a very broken item, Shard of Hate. The proc description is wrong, it procs 100% of the time. That's every "tick" of WW, if you use the Wind Shear rune, spits out 3 250% charged bolts in the direction you're spinning. No ICD, possibly affected by...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    You agree to marry someone(or live with them, whatever), there's an intrinsic understanding that you accept each other's ambitions and goals in life. You don't get to marry someone and then continue holding over their head that she work at a daycare(like my wife) and you make 3x what she...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I don't have one, unfortunatelyI'd use it with Deadly Reach - SB if I did. Can't remember what class you play, wizard? It's really only broken with monks and especially barbs. It says chance to activate, no, it's not chance, it's 100%. Put that thing on a barb with WW-Windshear and there's...

    I have considered Republic Wireless. But I don't want shitty reception at my house AND elsewhere. I wouldn't call Sprint coverage the best. Also, another thing to consider about resellers is that they might reroute your data elsewhere to save money. I know Straight Talk did that, routing all...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    You guys shouldn't use profiles for comparison anyway. It doesn't show rerolls, so the numbers are going to be way off, even if you ignore things like buffs that aren't applied either. Also, Moonlight Ward is definitely worth the sacrifice to some other offensive stats. Drop the tempest...

    Loyalty plan gets offered when you threaten cancellation, it's not on the website. Keep in mind that taxes and fees will still be levied. So if you were going to go to a similarly priced, or cheaper, plan, it will still be a decent margin. Still worth ditching VZW for Nexus phones. Or even...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    It's not a middle ground because trade essentially doesn't exist. Clans are glorified chat groups. You feel much less connected to them because you can't help them out with gear unless you group with 3 of them. I honestly might be ok with reduced drop rate if it means restricted trade. Or...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I left it purposefully vague. I would assume people that become your friend/clanmate/whatever post drop would not be eligible. The game tracks who was in your game when an item dropped, a whole clan/friend list can't be that much harder(wonder if that's where the 150 clan limit comes from). I...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I think making all items bind on equip is better than bind on account. Also, items will bind on trade and your time window to trade is based on how the person is related to you, just as Tenks specified. Both restrictions will keep clan/community/whatever chat turning into an auction house...

    Not going to listen to a 15m video at work. I'm going to assume tubby is referring +elemental% affixes. Yes, they're the best affixes for damage.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    If an item is missing 2+ ideal stats, don't bother. For you, it's missing a secondary resist and it's missing +element%. And for an amulet specifically, considering legendary ones require gems to reroll, it should be the last amulet you want. For example, I don't plan on rerolling any of my...

    Maybe not the quivers, but I thought I'd been getting a lot of barb belts. Do barbs even wear any of their belt legendaries?

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    You aren't. But aside from Zaphid already said, their reasons are generally different than yours. Most of them are poopsockers already, running core for chests is mind numbing, and they'll admit it, but they do it anyway because it might be the best way to get upgrades(for them). At that...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    So just play the game? You'll get tons of useful loot if your gear sucks, even on normal. Kind of tired of almost every post you make in this thread is asking about "exploits" or weird farming runs. While you miss the obvious fucking answer: the game will literally give you upgrades if your...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    You can use the terms almost interchangeably. I think 'gravy' is a handmedown from our food-challenged forebearers. I don't think it really adds any further classification beyond brown sauce or stock. Otherwise, what's mushroom gravy, or onion gravy, or egg gravy? Don't look that last one...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    No, I first encountered that when watching the Sopranos. That episode where Paulie visits Italy and asks for some gravy on his macaroni. My guinea wife had to explain. But, back to our regularly scheduled rustling. Since gravy can technically be made from just vegetables(i.e. stock), even...

    So, if it's not gravy but brown and similar in viscous quality...what is it? Serious answers only!

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Correct. If you want maximum legendaries while leveling: Butcher, Belial, Azmodan < 60 Diablo = 60 Malthael > 60 Though, I've preferred just leveling in adventure mode. I guess? Why does it matter? Your ally is such a small portion of your dps.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Why not something with utility then instead of SW - Cyclone? Maybe some stun bells or ltk-ss? I like how much damage FoF does, I hate how boring it feels killing stuff with a gen.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I wouldn't waste that many souls and gold on rerolling something without +elemental%. Unless, you're not going for a build with a (mostly) unified element. If so, link?

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Seems a little superstitious for you. If they don't fix the gold cost on enchanting and some other places, doing T6 story mode quests might be required at some point. Shame, kinda boring. And no blood shards.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    A few interesting choices. I've always disliked the range on CS with anything except Implosion. How do you deal with CS putting mobs behind you when DR and LTK are frontal cones? Same problem I have with FoF being my kill skill and why I'm considering a CW-Mangle and LTK-VCK build. Do you...

    Lightning skill damage does NOT affect TF procs, I've tested this myself. Watched the proc numbers for a while, then slapped on 25% +lightning% gear(no dex) and watched for the max to increase. It never did. So you can probably extrapolate that to any other proc that does XXX% weapon damage...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    How fast rerolling ramps up in gold cost needs to be toned down. They already lock you into rerolling 1 affix, so it's not like you can take a shitty drop and make it great. It's got to have n-1 affixes that you're willing to wear. So why does it cost me hours of farming to reroll a...
