Games goes live in the asia region in like 4hours if my googlefu didn't fail me, so we should get a decent look at how well or poorly the transition happens. Don't know if we can play there, I assume global play will be turned off during it so probably not, but I assume reddit will have people playing there saying if there servers are crashing and shit. I'm sleeping through launch time so hopefully by the time I wake up a few hours later, any problems has been fixed.
On my crusader, definitely twinking. On the other hand, I plan on listening to the dialogues and watching the cutscenes again, so it'll probably even out in time spent, but it'll make the combat less annoying this way. I don't have most of the gear though, just sitting on 4k materials to craft shit on the fly as I need it, do have a cain's set which is pre 2.0(but got the plans too), a pretty large ruby like radiant something for weapon sockets, I have enough mats to make 2 hellfires which I waited to make in case they roll crusader bonuses, I'll make one or two depending on the rolls I get and then I have a legendary weapon with a -17req on it but no stats so I'm hesitating with just crafting a bunch of hallowed weapons, I found the plans after the AH closed and I had bought most of the other plans. Will probably dump my fiery brimstones into it because why not, it's not like I'm gonna use them for anything else anyway.
