**OFFICIAL** Diablo 3 Thread

ummm i did hell on every char with like zero resists you do not need any until inferno, and even then you can beat act 1 with under 200

I could have done it too, just with a few dozen more deaths.

On the other hand, I didn't go to the AH until level 55-ish, then bought near end-game stuff that would be good enough for Act 1 Inferno. Made Hell so much more easier and funner without dying as often.

Just like I can kind of do Act 2 and 3 Inferno, but get tired of dying 20 times to get through each act.

So you're an all-star, have a cookie. Some of us need res to make the game more enjoyable. 🙂

No, millions made it through hell without any sizeable resists and your saying he needs some? Maybe its his gear choices or lack of proper build or play style. You do not need any resist until inferno. Hell diablo was a pain but there is no reason you cant get to inferno without it.

It might be advisable to sell any expensive weapons you have now since i61 and i62 weapons are being buffed to be able to comparable i63's. I'm not sure though if they can roll the same affixes(such as 100% crit dmg).

With the trash mob rare drop buff, you can probably now rock higher MF naturally and farm them. Packs as a result might be just as difficult as before but they removed invuln minons so how hard can it be? 😛


edit: brimstones just shot up by 2x

why is it shooting up? Cause crafting is going to be more worthwhile?

They're buffing the stats on legendary items

oooh ok, so less salvaging.

Buying MF gears for a barb with decent stats cost an arm and a leg. I hate swapping MF gears, hope i can increase my base MF to 100% while doing Act 3 comfortably.

I love the response that you get banned for calling people out.

 

[Phoenix86]

They have to, it's like a call out thread. There's just too many reason to have that rule, you should have seen some of the stuff on the WoW boards years ago... That and he did give the guy the proper way to report it.

 

[ch33zw1z]

Cool, sounds like some good changes, someday maybe I'll feel like playing again. The game has lost it's appeal for me.

 

[masterxfob]

lol, dupes! doubt i'll be coming back to this game anytime soon. here's to waiting for TL2 and GD.

Well I don't frequent the boards but it is at least relevant to let people know there is duping and that they shouldn't be spending real money on duped items which could then disappear at some point.

Never stopped anyone in D2 😛

Zoltun Kulle is kicking my ass; really wasn't expecting him to be this tough, but I haven't been able to get him to lower than half health. He's got an attack than can pretty much one shot me. Any tips on taking him out?

Here's my character:
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/OsirisRisen-1510/hero/1866623

The skills aren't my usual ones, they're just the last setup that I tried on him. And my DPS isn't right because all my gear is busted.

Honestly, you could probably use a lot more resist gear. It doesn't matter how much damage you can do if he can almost one shot you.

Blizzard wasn't financially responsible for those losses.

 

[thujone]

so there's a new video about the legendary item changes in 1.04. basically they added glow effects to all the weapons and they put new proc abilities on legendaries. i can't recall the stats for the items they showed... so i don't know if they also made the stats better or not. the weapons looked like they all had higher dps... not massive... but usable.

i think it's kind of insulting they made me watch multiple minutes of glow effects on weapons though.

 

[Mopetar]

There's a page that lists several of the new legendary items: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/6923457/

Looks fairly interesting.

 

[Fallengod]

Too little too late if you ask me.

Switched my gear around and now I'm up to a bit over 400 Resist All, maybe that'll help. Lost 5k dps thoug, I'll probably switch back after the fight.

Really liking the new Legendary stuff.

 

[SS Trooper]

Yeah I have gotten some of these items to drop already, pretty annoyed that what was crap is now pretty badass. Maybe I can find them again... lol. Stupid game released as a Beta version.

I'm loving the two updates so far. I think 1.0.4 is going to be great. Firewalker boots look spectacular.

 

[darkewaffle]

I guess it's neat and all, but I don't understand why legendaries are such a big deal to people.

I can't actually read the effects from here but I think 'build specific' items are usually more of a pain than anything else; it's really easy for them to become 'must have' items. Which as a barb who had to chase down a well rolled String of Ears, Helm of Command, and Justice Lantern (pre 1.0.2) was not an easy nor fun thing to do.

 

[fustercluck]

They're actually making legendaries...legendary! Also didn't know that they had Windforce in D3 too, that was my weapon in D2, a perfect one 😀

what's the ETA on this patch?
