One of the reasons information is so sparse might be because they are a small team and since this is still beta and the game and skills are very subject to change they don't want to create any informative lists just yet.

How would you do this? I definitely disagree with getting rid of the idea of alts. A large part of the charm and appeal of an alternate "class" (to me anyway) is going through the "levelling" process (whatever it may be) with stronger hand me down gear from my main and ripping through stuff I...

I wouldn't play a game with a system like that. You shouldn't be forcing someone to play a certain way during their level experience and if they don't... completely gimp their character. Also, it would make me NEVER want to make an Alt, which is bad for a game's longevity and replayability...

The original highlander was one of those "So bad it's good" movies. I mean... they had a Scottish actor (Sean Connery) playing a Spaniard (he can't sound anything but Scottish) and Christopher Lambert (who also cannot change his voice or accent) playing the Highlander. The dialogue was terrible...

Hey, just because it's an old system doesn't make it "bad". I personally want them to keep this game truer to the ARPG genre and that includes FFA loot in my opinion. Blizzard tried to make D3 some sort of weird ARPG/MMO hybrid and it killed all the replay value. FFA loot adds an extra level of...

I don't agree with your stance on loot in the game but the general confusion that occurs in group play is problematic. They need to do a few things in my opinion. Make rare and champion pack mobs more noticeable. Right now they are slightly differently colored (tinted blue or yellow) but it's...

I'm sure we will see a ton of cool builds that focus around specific uniques. Kind of like runeword builds in D2 but way more fun since the passive tree is so wide open.

I was watching nugiyen's stream today and one of the developers was in his mumble server talking about it. He said he was going to check what the exact damage was when he got back into the office but he suspects it wasn't very much more than kripp's hp count. He estimated the damage was probably...

How does rushing/PLing in this game work? I haven't seen any info on what happens with exp in groups with people certain levels higher/lower than you. I have a friend I'm trying to catch up, is it better to just rush him through quests and have him go group exp by himself or can I rush him in...

I went to trade chat with 2 level 50 6S armors just to see if I could get any bites. Was able to sell one of em for 2 chaos and 1 alch. Don't know if I found a sucker or what but I guess people are buying them already.

It would be nice if a company had the resources to create a game that had both the danger you seek (zones with content tuned for groups and only groups, not solo players) and solo friendly content. And I mean overland zones, not dungeons. Dungeons should always be tuned for groups. The danger in...

Are 6S weapons and armors worth anything for trading or should I just vendor them for the 7 jeweler's orbs?

How do auras like hatred work with blood magic? Do they reserve 30% of your hitpoints?

Never... ever do this. Only ask a trainer, never another gym member. I have heard so much bad information spewed as gospel at the gym by people who think they know what they are doing. It almost makes me want to slap them for teaching beginners all kinds of bad habits... like hitting your chest...

I think it's kind of fair to blame the bleeding edge guilds for that jello. I mean, blizzard hired two very prominent guild leaders who were in charge of coming up with a lot of the strategy involved in exploiting the mechanics in EQ. Is it fair to assume they said "Hey you! Developer! Don't let...

Armoured princess is actually really easy since you can juke a lot of the mobs to get maps which then in turn let's you go to higher level areas to juke more mobs to get high level spells/money/gear/armies. You can even do a few turn in only quests that will give you multiple levels since they...

Doesn't pretty much every ARPG have this mechanic? I mean, yes it's annoying, but it's pretty easy to work around. Just get the recovery stat and stack hp. Mechanics like this make the game a bit painful with your first character, but every character after that it's completely unnoticable...

So I have a 4L pair of white zealot boots (str/int helm, 4 reds), a 5L white Labrys (str/dex 2h axe, 4 reds 1 blue) and a 4L finned helmed (str/dex 2red, 2 green). What can I get for these? I figure I should trade em early rather than later, probably get a better price for em

Absolutely anything in this game can be done. It is amazing how well the passive tree is set up. It's daunting at first but they have a lot of great skills that can make so many builds viable, not only that but the itemization is top notch. They did a lot of the game the right way, remember...

Yea I was using fork but even when I take it out I still run into mana issues. I'll give clarity a shot and I actually just got a mana leech gem so it's worth trying at the least I suppose. Thanks for the tips.

Did you mean "Searching for Sugar Man"? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2125608/

So I've got an EK shadow up to 45 in act 3 cruel. Used the guide linked a few pages back and while I'm pretty beefy I have had no luck finding good +ES gear. As a result my ES is sitting at a whipping 103 which means respeccing to Eldritch Battery is worthless (I have ~1200 hitpoints currently)...

There is a [VIDEO] tag now

Summoner works in act 3 its just.... really... painfully slow. I'm working my way through it right now on my Witch summoner and I have a feeling that once I get through it and into Cruel difficulty Act1 and 2 are going to be pretty easy again until I hit that wall back in Act 3. I wish...

I thought the same thing at first but I have to say... after playing around with it for a little bit it is quite refreshing to be playing a challenging game with complex options where you can actually do unique shit. Sure I might fuck up a build but the levelling is fast enough that I can just...

Just picked up a copy at the local Game Stop. They got about 8 copies in today it seems so if you're still looking might want to check around. Now I just need to borrow a friend's PS3....

Finally watched Dredd last night based on all the praise here. You guys were right.

I understand what you guys are trying to say. But the fact of the matter is AoW was not a hard fight. It was the epitome of gear check. Warriors and Clerics were the only classes that had a job in that fight, everyone else just "did damage". And the clerics had the most trivial of jobs, click...

See I wouldn't call any of that difficult. Hoping an invis spell doesn't fade doesn't make the game hard. It makes it exciting, but it doesn't make it hard. You're casting a spell and then running. You're talking about random events you have no control over so there is no skill involved. Hoping...

I started playing EQ around December of 2000. I remember making my first character (an Iksar Shaman) and when I got into the gameworld I couldn't see shit. I actually thought I had crashed and relogged a few times before I realized I was in game but it was really goddamn dark. So I immediately...

So you want to compare the amount of times someone died in their very first levels in a brand new genre of game that they had probably never experienced before to the amount of deaths in every game they played as an MMO veteran after that. I'm sure that data would be useful for something...

I know this is derailing the thread a bit but I just can't help it. Please show me this large list of "hard gameplay" that existed in EQ. Not being able to put 5 pure dps classes in a group and be successful fits your criteria for "hard" apparently so I guess you would consider pretty much...

There were things about EQ that were difficult, but not many. Saying it was "hard as shit" makes me think you played a different game than I did. EQ was actually pretty easy. Unlimited CC, debilitating slows, super buffs, only needing to press about 3 buttons. Yea that shit was hard dog.

If I have a wand with 16% increased damage with spells does that effect the damage of my minions?

This is going incredibly smooth. No lag, a 5 minute downtime at one point which was fixed promptly, fast loading times. I'm guessing they erred on the side of caution and made it seem like they thought they weren't going to be able to handle all this extra unanticipated load, when in fact they...

Do support gems stack? For instance, can I link 2 minion life gems to a summon zombie gem?

Is there a list form layout of all the "big" passives (i.e. Chaos Innoculation) somewhere? Trying to navigate the tree in a browser as a noob to see what's available is daunting.

I don't see any guides on page 7, how many posts per page do you have this site set to? EDIT: Found it, it's on page 14 if you use the default settings.

Question for the more veteran people. I've been playing minimally for the last week or so, started a witch as my first character and after perusing the passive tree decided there were enough summon passives that I would try summoner witch. I'm level 16 and have notice that while the zombies and...
