they really have to increase auction house slots. got a collection of legendaries and poor-mans inferno gear and cant sell enough. coz sometimes the item no matter the quality or price just doesnt sell.

only 3 options for search in ah, cant sort auctions by time left, bids, damage (for wizard sources for example) or other relevant stats.
legendary only attributes (attack speed on helmets or boots) etc

Hardcore is good fun, but the grind to get back to where you were is too punishing, they need to address this somehow in my opinion. Losing all your gear forever is bad enough - grinding back from 1 to 50+ is terrible and not fun, and just serves to punish the player. Why should any entertainment outlet do this?

The good thing about this is its easy to pick back up when pvp is introduced and expansion packs etc... It's still a solid game

i've had no issues as a barb in inferno :S i just play a little more defensively thats all.


i am saying that while comparing to other classes.
DH and Wiz in some ways just have way easier game.
being ranged is just one of the reasons why that is.
also you cant say that attack speed nerf didnt hurt life on hit survival for barb and monk. it isnt that bad, but still.


True but im still an agressive barbarian and use furious charge as my main heal followed by revenge on a 30% proc, works nicely if your resists are high.

I still charge in and lay waste to stuff but if i have to back out i line them up and charge through them to get all my health back. then bam sun them with a aoe stun and carry on slapping them around.

the game is odd.
this 'nerf' didnt do much for DH.
class is back to its 'forever invurnerable' state thanks to buffs to DH set.
not only that i saw a video of TANK build for DH. what.
so what was exact point of the nerf... it only hurt classes that had harder time anyway - wd, monk and barb.
then again maybe i know nothing about the game after all.

Blizzard fucked it up big time with 1.03. Pre patch I couldn't progress in A2, because it was a "wall". WD with 31k dmg (2,73 att speed), 30k hp, 500 res. It is nowhere better after patch. The game was ruined by cheap farming methods without which you could not earn gold fast enough. If you didn't do those tedious goblin farming and whatnot then you just couldn't afford the decent gear.
Lately I bought more upgrades for 1.6 milion to increase my dmg only by 4k (still 5k less than pre patch). Had 71k gold when I tried to progress in a2, after two hours I was left with the same amount 71k due to repairs and one semi decent item to sell on AH for max 110k. No thanks to farm A1 for another month to spend that 1-2 milion to up my dmg by another 4k which will be not enough still.

still no adjusments to build variety. right now build variety after lvl60 is even worse than in d2.


You are using elective mode right ?


ofcourse. still there is only one build for DH, 2 or so for WIZ, other classes use same kind of idea. too many must have skills, i mean for example monk without serenity would be a dumbass - its just that good. better than everything else.

unless you are saying that wizard with venom hydra, blizzard, force armor, magic weapon is like... completely rare lol.

in a similar way people pumped attack speed - it was simply too good.


All true but if there is one thing blizzard is good at it's balancing their games. Future patches should effect rune effects aswell to break the monotony f the cookie cutter builds. Best thing is with no monthly fee it's the perfect game to jump back in to a few patches down the line.

wow everything got so readjusted now...

indestructible, gold find items jumped in worth.
gold itself is much more valuable. gold sellers were offering like 3 euro for 1 mil before, pretty sure its now x5 that and we can expect gold selling being enabled in rmah soon.
item prices might be going a bit lower now considering the drop rate is increased.
artisans are cheaper now, too bad nobody got refunded for stuff they spent - that would be atleast 500k easily.

still no adjusments to build variety. right now build variety after lvl60 is even worse than in d2.

you have to sort of hit and reposition yourself a lot in inferno.
i mean lets take ranged classes in in all difficulties - they have to kite and use some kind of very defensive short time abilities. in inferno that doesnt change - they still have to kite, not a surprise.

with melee classes in difficulties untill inferno - you are unkillable more or less. especially as monk. in inferno however you have to not get surrounded at all times. you sort of have to play as if enemy was always 'fire chains' with that particular AI.

what else about inferno? soloing with hell gear is nearly impossible. coop is doable.
the items in act 1 inferno are kinda garbage as well. so you go to auction house where former overpowered DH and WIZ put all their items for us poor melee sobs..... for millions of gold. yay.

You do have to go in to a more defensive playstyle, using furious charge with the heal on it is completely key and having revenge with the 30% proc chance is also a good one. i use Seismic smash at the cost of only 15 fury to keep mobs pinned back against walls in tight quarters and helps me kite in outdoors.
