Famous last words by me, minor patch but maintenance has been extended by 3 hrs. Expected back up at 4am.

 

[Dazb86]

No idea how you got 450k for that item.

I would have been selling for like 50k.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

It depends. If those boots came with decent gold find, I would pay over 1M for it (not that I need GF gear right now).

 

[silverscope]

So I gave up trying to get my Barb to lvl 60. CBF. Also became a bit bored of him.

I'm now upto lvl 11 with my Hardcore female monk.

Anyone else who's played Monk, should I avoid hand to hand combat as much as possible? Because I have a weapon/shield combo but never use the weapon.

Logged on the other day to find my chick naked and robbed

Darn hackers..Have since put my authenticator back on and Blizzard rolled my account back, yet to log in and see how far though.

Got a little trick for you guys, confirmed it worked yesterday and still works today after the patch.

How to get to Act IV Inferno solo without playing through inferno (nb: Must be up to act 1 inferno):
1. On the main screen click 'Select Quest'
2. Change difficulty to 'HELL'
3. Start Game
4. Hit escape and then 'Open Game to the Public'
5. Leave game immediately.
6. On the main screen click 'Public Games', dont select anything else, just press find game.
7. Once loaded leave game immediately.
8. On the main screen click 'Start Game'
9. Tada Act IV inferno.

Works on other acts too I believe, but not all quest points. For example I dont think it works on Quest 3 in Inferno Act IV. Ive been using Quest 2 garden of hope for the chests/fallen angels.

Real Money Auction House is now live (set your currency to US not AuS theres F*** all on the aus one).

Gained 20k dps for 10 bucks (weapon/quiver). I dont have time at the moment to play the AH so quite happy to part with 10 bucks for a decent weapon.

Sadly this is why even if I start to enjoy D3 I don't think I'll enjoy it. Why would I spend time looking for items when I can just pay the money for it? Auction house is a terrible idea personally.

I was just trying it out, have no plans to really use it in the future. The Gold AH is still there and its what ill be using 99% of the time.

 

[Double the Fist]

Anyone having difficulty logging on?

Certainly not having a go at you, was just saying that the existence of it would be too tempting for me.

For me I'd look at it this way.
1. Really want a good weapon
2. Consider spending 4 hours grinding or $20?
3. Realise I value my time at more than $5 an hour...
4. Buy the weapon before realising all that allows me to do is grind for better items
5. Not play again

 

[Dazb86]

Was just mucking around doing butcher runs. Did anyone know there is a spot that you can't be hit by the fire?

Right down the bottom by the gates I wasn't being hit by any of the fire even when he enraged. Pretty much instant win for a barb because he's easy to tank.

So... Blizzard have imposed a max number of logins per x mins limit... wasnt even in the patch notes, they just sneakily slipped it in there to try and put off farming chests/goblins.

This just makes the situation for Aus/NZ Gamers worse, how many times have you found yourself logging in and out trying to find a stable server with <500 ping (which in reality plays like 50k), well never fear blizzard is here!

Now if you do that you risk finding yourself locked out of the game for 15 mins, simply staring at the "Too many inputs" error message on your character screen.

Made a topic on this. Go here if you want to offer support:

[DarkPhoenix]

The max login limit has now been removed apparently

 

[Equus]

Latency was pretty horrendous last night, had to leave games up to 10 times just to find a stable server.. :S

I'm finding that I'm spending way too much money on weaponry and armory at the auction house. It's almost like I have to change my weapons and armors everyday.

And bloody hell the voice acting for a Female Monk is so annoying. If I meet her on the street, I'd probably punch her in the face (and then I'll probably get crippled wave or something),

Ive never had over 350

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Ive never had over 350

I generally sit on 200, but when theyre getting ready for maintenance, or theres a heavy server load, Aussies are the first ones to get shafted with pings shooting from 200-1600 every couple of seconds.

I was sitting on 200 last night but every time an enemy came onto the screen I had to play like a jedi.

 

[funk44]

hit up the RMAH last night, spent about $30 on stuff and got the res on my barb from 200-300 to 650-800, added about 2k dmg and 1k life on hit. makes act 1 inferno a breeze now. Extra 1k armor as well

 

[Mr Eagle]

The script seems to drag down even the best voice actors. Robin Atkin Downes (male Demon Hunter) is also the voice of the Team Fortress 2 Medic, the British male voice in Saints Row 3, and has been in a metric buttload of other games... but he sounds really awkward in D3.

With those stats you should be act 2 viable. I'm against using the Rmah. Have been grinding it out and I'm kind of getting there. Just need to get a few decent rings because mine are shite.

That's what stats I've got at the moment. Probably 6-7 hours farming act 1 for gold and gear. Need more resist and probably more health.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

If anyone has Act 3 Inferno access, I really suggest abusing this before it gets hotfixed:

Agree. So clunky and awkward.

On my phone so can't play the vid but think I know the spot. It's honestly not as good as they make it out to be, yes it works but the repairs are horrendous and if the elites are ranged or can tele they can instagib you.
