Yeah, you do. It's kinda fun to start with nothing once again. Get excited about seeing a pattern drop, and those Death's Breath mean something (for the first 50). I leveled with a mate on Hard, and just crushed the Acts till we'd killed Malthael and opened adventure mode, then we switched to...

This forum is the gift that just keeps on giving -- much like herpes. I've pushed my HC crusader into T1 and completed all the achievements, feels good. Going to revive my Barb and have a tool around with a gimpy fire set and see how the drops go.

Got an SMK tonight, rings and necklace are still shit (and that fucking off-hand is driving me crazy 1.4m rerolls now). Debating on continuing to gear the WD or starting something else.

My monk isn't perfect, but it'd be a good start.

Should use Eye of the Storm for lightning monk (helm). I used 3 piece BT's (boots, pants and chest) to ignore ground effects (works pretty well giving you more up time on things.). Shoulders and Bracers - Augs, can't live without that bonus. WD: Just got a zuni ring for 4 piece bonus...

Crone, if you want to do a DoT build you really need to focus on cold damage, and then round it out with a little poison in slots you can't get +cold. I ran a cold haunt build for a day, but found it too weak overall on tankiness during T3+ stuff. Think I maxed out at 20mil crits, which is...

picked up a fairly average T&T, and a zuni off-hand that I can't afford to reroll to +fetish anymore. =(

Isn't the 41% from an XP gem roughly (9% less) half of the xp gained going from T1 to T2? Yes. Is there a gem that allows the efficient jump from T1 to T2? No. Thus, 40% extra xp is just fucking gravy when farming T1 for loot.

Life% = useless - unless you want to boost your d3progress toughness score. Hardcore players would be the exception, and would be an excellent buffer. Magic Find = useless, I swear MF makes no real difference over a typical gaming session, maybe over an extremely large amount of hours. Gold...

Pony up 10 bucks to buy a copy of the game. stay a citizen in good standing and when you die you can reincarnate. If you murder some dude, you're pushed to -1000 karma and when you die to another player, it locks your account and refuses you to create a new one, permanently. Karma gain is capped...

Trading will not fix this. Take the night you got your SMK, for example, assuming we're back with a RMAH, a gold AH and face-to-face trading. Scenario 1. SMK drops for old mate, everyone freaks the fuck out and tells him he's on a winner. He either RMAH's it for 250 dollars, gold AH's...

Did you read the part where I mentioned player knowledge? It's overlooked quite a lot. The large majority of us posters in this thread have a very, very good idea how to play D3. So we tend to gloss over what wethinkwe know is common knowledge. A guy (crusader) in general today was bitching...

I also have a Star of Azkaranth, and a pretty shitty version of it. I don't have an SMK, TnT's, or any pieces of Zuni. I do have a Mask of Jeram though, and I enjoy the shit out of playing my WD and will likely continue to play my gimpy WD for a long time to come. SMK is NOT REQUIRED for...

What amuses me the most, is that Ao has gotten the rarest (and best) weapon for a WD using the CURRENT IMPLEMENTATION and is whining about it.

I thought we all played for bitches, right?

Can you make Augs? shoulders + bracers. DWM is pretty shit for monks.

Assuming you're not playing Hardcore, just test the waters. Kill speed means a great deal, but so does getting into T1 (Torment 1) pronto. Add me, we'll go stomp some shit.

How is any of this related to the "It's not like they're collecting a monthly sub from anyone." My monk was ranked 240 on d3progress (NA) for elemental elite dps 2 weeks ago, I'm now down to 628. For a few people, keeping up with the joneses is pretty important, and would continue to play...

It's fairly simple to overlook one tiny detail about the RoRG and targeted farming. That ring ONLY drops from that Act 1 cache. If the RoRG could drop from any mob in the game, we'd be farming Rifts (because Rifts have a higher chance to drop items) to get the ring, not caches. Because the...

Sure, but it puts that person far more at risk of copping a ban (not to mention the purchase of several copies of the game), discouraging the average joe from doing it. Remember that a fair chunk of time would STILL be required to get the Wand of Woh. When that risk, expense and time can be...

Every single time I've heard the lines "Bring back player trading" and "We need the AH back" all I hear is "Please let us bot on a second/third account, and buy gold from 3rd party websites." Trading would do nothing to increase the overall chances to get loot. It'd still need to drop for...

Pretty happy with the Mask of Jeram I picked up yesterday. =D

I run a a few weapon tests on my monk the other night against T3 Skeleton King. First up was a 30% Sunkeeper + Thunderfury = 46 seconds Then I tried out SoH + Thunderfury = 32 seconds. The difference was just staggering. How good was this shit before the nerf? or is it just lightning...

Christ, I'm sorry I brought up the how he was parsing. Sorry Krassus.

Got a 98% MoJ on my WD last night, feels good. Now, for those T&Ts.

Krassus is using a DemonBuddy plugin (injection/memory) to parse his damage.

RNG gunna RNG.

Except there are servers in Oceania.

You can fuck right back off to D2 with commentary like that. There's multiple reasons why we're playing D3, and enjoying it (for the most part). None of those reasons are because we want to play D2.

I had a forced server restart. =(

u mad bro? u sound mad.

Should I go back to playing Normal guys? halp.

My monk is in a pretty good place, there's not much I can't steamroll on T3. By steamroll, I mean kill elite packs in under 15 seconds.

I wouldn't mind actually seeing a piece of monk set gear. I probably wouldn't use it, far too wedded to Blackthorne's.

Got your EP fist yet Nirgon? =D

If I'm just farming T1-T2, then EP doesn't get a spot, ever. Shit just dies way too fast to even worry about it. Having some fun with Tempest Rush and SoH before they fix it, it's funny, but not overly effective.

Ignorance is blizz.

Well, fuck. Just had a SoH drop for my monk today. Sad times.

I haven't seen a 1 handed WEAPON, in 2 weeks. =(

So... veteran zone access is completely shut down at the moment due to a quest bug. Good times.
