Cool beans. I've spent most of the night PLing random people who happened upon my Twitch stream haha.

Re: Diablo 3

I've been having lag issues for a week or so (though today has been good, so far *fingers crossed*.)

Everytime it happens, I always go to speedtest and it shows me getting 45-55 down and 10-15 up, so it rules out my 'net. I know chrisksaint has been having issues as well with the lag.

I dont think its on my end either. I haven't experienced it yet this morning so maybe the hiccups are gone.



Going to farm for the Hallowed Barricade shield to see if the stat rolls are in my favor. I want the 2 piece bonus for the 10% attack speed and +100 all resistance.

Messed with my gear, sacrificed some DPS for healing and now T1 is way easier with the Wave of Force+Explosive Blast build

Re: Diablo 3

Nice. I ran around with a Wizzy that used Wave of Force skill, it looked pretty fun. Seems to be a pretty rare build that can actually be quite effective.

I finally got my Thunderfury. Randomly dropped off a normal mob in T1 when I was helping Candy. Stuff melts super fast now.

I can do T5, but my toughness isn't quite there to where I'm comfortable doing it. Still a bit of a strain with my survivability, but stuff dies fast enough (if I stay alive.)

Re: Diablo 3

Is there any site/reference you've used for legendary farming? I know certain legendaries only come from certain acts, but haven't seen any real 'guide' style information to reference.

All legendaries come from all acts... the only thing that's specific that I've seen are the legendary crafting mats.

Re: Diablo 3

Dang.

I stand corrected. Learn something new every day!

Re: Diablo 3

God, this needs to come out on PS4 like, right now. Seeing you guys talk about the new gear is killing me.

So how do the horadric chests work? From what I have seen in different videos, if you complete all 5 bounties in an act, you get a horadric chest potentially holding legendaries that are act specific (referencing the list mestevo posted above). Is that correct? I assume the drop rate for these legendaries increases with each torment level?

Late summer is the rumor I heard, so that's better than Fall I suppose...

I'm waiting as well, although I have the PC version to keep me company in the meantime..

Re: Diablo 3

I didn't play the PS3 version, nor have I read anything about the PS4 version... BUT...

Will they be separate servers? Will those of us on PC have to start from scratch for the PS4 version as well (I believe the PS3 people did?)

Diablo 3 Available On PS4 At PAX East
D3's PlayStation 4 version is available for testing at PAX East and feedback so far has been more than positive. There are several pretty big improvements announced/confirmed at the convention:

Your friends have a chance of receiving a "gift" every time you get a legendary drop
The gift is a legendary item of their own that they can open on whichever hero they want to: the stats roll upon opening the gift
You'll be able to send items to your friends
Nemesis System: The monster that kills you can level up, jump into a portal and appear later in a friend's game
If your friend kills it, you get "gifts", if the monster kills them, it keeps getting stronger and jumps to another game randomly chosen from your friend's friend list.
Apprentice mode: if a lower level player pairs up with a higher level player, the system boosts the lower level player's stats so that they can handle the action
You still get the exp and items on both characters (each one appropriate to their base level, slightly boosted for the lower level)
Bonus experience is given for group play
Loot is distributed to the players that have priority by stat
All loot drops for everybody, if someone picks a Dexterity item it goes to the DH, if it's a Strength item it goes to the Barbarian and so on
You get a speed boost for destroying breakables
Massacre bonuses give more experience
Killing enemies with environment gives more experience
Massacres have a chance of dropping a Nephalem Glory globe

OMG come to PC version now. That be fun as heck. But the first 3 would also be much welcomed additions as well.

Re: Diablo 3

Well just realized I could play Adventure mode before Level 70 (after having my main Wiz hit Level 70) Don't think I can go back to Campaign after playing around with Adventure Mode for a few hours.

I rarely venture into Campaign mode these days, Only point to Campaign mode is to kill the last boss once you hit 70 to get your guaranteed legendary.

Would anyone be interested in starting a hardcore group from scratch? I've never really bothered with HC, but I've been getting an itch to try it out recently.
