    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    Sorry hear. I love the monitor, first time in a long while I've bought a computer related product with absolutely no buyer's remorse. The extra width on D3 alone was worth it for me. Can fire cluster arrows from FAR away.

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    Are you certain that it's backlight bleed? I have the same size monitor, lower resolution. I thought my lower corners were bleeding when it was actually gamma shift from viewing angle. Adjusting the tilt and maybe a book or two if you're tall should fix that. As for height, do you mean height...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    You'll use recursion a lot on interviews, often to your detriment because the fucker interviewing you used it as a "gotcha!". Actual programming? Rarely. As Citz says, it makes process flow a lot harder to understand. Easy to read code is underrated.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    A lot of the information in TurboHUD looks superfluous. Looks useful because a lot of us come from heavily modded WoW interfaces. Pace of combat just doesn't allow for that information to be useful or accurate.

    Home buying thread

    I wouldn't buy a house if I didn't think having a paid off house would make retiring much easier. I don't want to be 75 or whatever and still paying rent. If that means paying substantially more over 30 years(that I can comfortably afford) compared to a figure I absolutely cannot afford over...

    Get your sets, specifically Raekors or Leapquake, that will let you do T6. No other way around it. Items already on PTR picked for season 3: Season 3 - Is there any exclusive content(PTR)? - Forums - Diablo III Guess I'll have to play S3. Zodiac, in its current form, is too...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Good programmers think ahead and test inputs for every possible bad case so they can give valuable feedback to the user! That's only half sarcasm. Honestly, I'd just be happy the guy thought he might get a value that doesn't parse and at least prevented bad behavior(directly). The...

    The Edge is like the last person I'd assume that. Reading this thread, I've had to make sure this was the same guy that heavily posts new age hippy Eastern shit. I mean, I guess they're not mutually exclusive, but I don't usually associate people that are money driven with that stereotype...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    And since the PTR is running on a Commodore 64, the challenging gameplay is still there! RNG loot is replaced by RNG lag. Unrelated: decided to try one of the CA rocket builds since MS Arsenal was feeling a bit week. I decided Hexing pants were the least worst of two bad options, the...

    That's exaggeration, but I do test and support for a company that makes a product that will catch bad programming like that. Yes, your compiler will let you do that. Or more commonly, you'll take a tainted value and divide by it without checking. Buffer overruns, memory leaks, null pointer...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Players DPS I'm less concerned about. I just want to be able to progress in grifts without shit one shotting me. Avoiding damage at all costs is not a fun game and some classes have much better tools for that than others. In the long run, dps/toughness/recovery need to scale a bit more...

    He did have 50% DR(Striding Giant), 50% DR(Unity), and 40% DR(WoTW 4 piece) though, which is much more than you can get live. And the cheat death passive. Either way, I hope they leave it. Melee classes are supposed to be able to take a beating, it really helps how the class feels if you can...

    Definitely not optimized. He was easily missing out on ~70% movespeed and was killing shit he didn't need to.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I'm not sure the updated WW set will be as good as IK for progression, but IK might get nerfed. The Insanity rune wasn't applying at all last night and I was still able to clear a 47 grift with regular weapons. But, the WW set looks pretty good for speed farming. It looks enticing for the...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Buffing old legendaries is good and I'm glad they've thought about it. But, I think the old ICD mechanic, which is usually 1/APS, will still ruin a lot these. 600% piercing knife per attack sounds good until you realize you only get one per APS, not one per tick per target like WW might lead...

    Thanks, I missed the official notes. That build I posted above, 2:57 to clear a 38 grift. What? Shutup, I got oneshot on wave 41 by a charged up ghosty dude because I forgot to refresh my wotb. Yay for ~20s cooldowns...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    5 IK + RoRG + Hexing Pants + Bul Kathos looks really strong. Use Skull Grasp for double DPS or Unity for double mitigation. Derp, fuck skull grasp. They didn't nerf Broken Promises. Buffed it, actually! 3 seconds instead of 2-3 seconds. Undocumented, maybe good?

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    PTR patch datamined on diablofans.com. Initial glance, I'd say IK set is even more retarded than before. The only weakness being pets dieing like a bitch on high grifts. Bul Kathos weapons look good too for a WW spender. Though, not sure how to use that "10 fury generation" besides the...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Comes with a free cryptowall! Arcaus, assuming you hit punishment and companion exactly on cooldown and there's no overage, 50% CDR gets you just a shade under 5.5 more hatred per second. Assuming he uses MS, 25 * 50% RCR / 5.5 = 2.27, which is how often, as a minimum and on average, that...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I somewhat disagree about MS for single target. Obviously LfB is better than the rest, but I'm not going to use that for soloing. (360 + 300*2) / 25 = 38.4 (550 + 600*2) / 40 = 43.75 So, it lags a bit behind the best case rocket build. Unless, damage/hatred isn't the right way to...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Haven't tried it myself, but solo Sever-MfD doesn't seem worth it. You give up quite a lot not using bows. Danetta's will be better for speed farming, and you need a RG that spawns adds to progress in grifts. Some people might be ok with that latter example, but that annoys me to no end...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Yeah, I'm not using Loaded for Bear for solo grifts. I personally like the shape of MS, so the arsenal rune makes sense. It's competitively efficient(damage/hatred) compared to the rocket runes of CA. Are DH the only class that haven't been able to ditch their generators? I mean, I guess...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I'm having trouble theorycrafting a roll for the new DH set in progression. It seems great for speed farming because you don't have to lay down turrets upon zone in nor for max damage. But in grift progression, it seems like M6 would be better. 5 turrets out firing your spender is basically a...
