PSA: Diablo III Open Beta WeekendFollow

No, man. There are still plenty of us KEEPING THE FAITH.

The traitors will soon find themselves in another hell...

yeah I caved too. Only at the beginning of act 2 with a level 17 witch doctor (and working up a barbarian - at 11 now)

But love playing co-op. Murzim#1471 - feel free to add me.

I'm Tharon#1886

Currently a level 37 Monk on Act 1 Nightmare.

I'm on the last fight of Hell, and I am like 2-3 pieces of gear away from it being easy. Group play is just annoying since half the time is spent rezzing people who can't stay out of ****. It's not like the moves aren't all blatantly telegraphed so you know when to move or anything. Really peeved that your companion can't join you on it for single player.

Getting phat loot drops is a huge part of the game and the AH ruins it, imo.

I feel like they should have made more AH servers and limited the number of players on each one more, to be honest. There's just such a a huge pool of items on there, it's ridiculous. Well, maybe when the RMAH is implemented, all the really good items are going to be on that, so the gold AH won't be as much of a crutch.

Midway through Act 2 on Hell. Had to step away from the game a bit due to getting really bad elite/rare setups. Probably will push through Act 2 tonight and work on Act 3. Also I should look into the AH, been trying to get my own gear and it's becoming a bother when all that drops is +str and +dex and not a single bloody item I want.

I caved, I'll be playing through easy mode tonight.

Battle tag?

Also, how much of a wizard are you?

Aside from a few mob types, A1 Inferno is pretty darn easy for any decently geared ranged class. Elite packs may be another matter, though. My only real gripe with grinding A1 is that gearing yourself up to progress through A2 isn't exactly a fast or exciting experience. The Smoke Screen nerf hurt my DH, too, at least when it came to better handling elites.

Anyway, if someone needs help with something, can PM me your tag. Not a fan of posting mine on sites since I've heard some hackings were going around.

Wizard enough to save the President.

A3 Normal was the first time I died in my initial playthrough. When you get to the basement area of the keep, and those lunatics rush you and explode. Trying to get through there made me take my first look at AH wares in order to build some up some decent VIT on my DH.

A2 Inferno is interesting. Public games are amusing. One DH called me a terrible because I was kiting backwards towards camp and playing conservatively to kill the wasps and stuff in the canyon. He called me terrible after managing to die four times to wasps. As a DH.

Also, I had to put Caltrops back on my bar. I sacrificed my bat.
Current build here.

Im only in A4 Nightmare on Barb, I'm getting tired of pack of 3 Elites (Blue names) with a Rare(yellow) with Minions being spawned together. I'm guaranteed to die because I cant pull just one pack they all come. As for bosses I have to completely redo all my skills/traits for single target I wish there was a fast swap like in D2 with different gear sets. I'm decently geared with cheap rares off the AH, because I was getting crap for drops, so right now I have like 23k HP, about 2k Damage, about 100/sec life regen, and about 3% life steal +50 per swing. about 2500 Armor, and I can't remember the rest.

They things that really get me are Vortex + Laser beam mobs (Not sure what exactly they are called) and anything that drops pools of lava while they walk, and they ALWAYS seem to put it on mobs that run away. Since I have like 1 ranged ability. I'm forced to try chasing them and when they do stop, I have to be extremely careful on where i stand since if i get to close my life starts sapping faster then anything.

Also They need to make better potions, Like i said I have 22k life and the best potions I have are 6500.
