Thanks for the tip, will give it a try

So how does this work? Do we have to be in the game with you?

They're doing their best to add value and challenge but remain balanced at the same time. I can't afford to play Diablo for 10 hours a day, so for me Paragon 100 will take years. And that's ok - but make it much harder and I won't make it to Paragon 2, because I'll get bored.

Hmm, nice find. I wonder how many other "secret" uniques there are...

Until Legendaries drop as often as rares, I'm still picking them up. It doesn't take that much time and you can certainly still make decent gold off them.

1) 50k-100k and if I'm lucky I get something I can sell. I'm not inferno yet so my number is lower.
2) I'm at 60 hours total right now
3) Diablo 1 and Diablo 2
4) I have read several guides on making gold. Particularly regarding buying and selling on the AH rather than farming.
5) Hell

I want to know the answer to this to - so bump

First of all, I admire you not using the AH except for friends, etc. Drops is the way to go if you want to actually have fun. The AH breaks the game in my opinion.

Question: How many hours have you played this character, and how much MF did you have?

How much magic find / NV did you have?

We all know that legendaries and high powered weapons sell well. But what else sells? I'm working my way to inferno and I'm about level 50. I'm getting a lot of rares, and some are quite decent, but obviously no high DPS weapons or great legendaries.

Is there anything at my level that would be worth selling on the RMAH? Even if for only a buck or two?

What have you all had the most luck with?

Are they being listed at those prices or actually selling for those prices? I don't think there's enough gold in the game for everyone to get what they're asking for their gear.

I like all of your thinking, but I want to focus on items. Rares to frequently and crappy. Magics are blah, and whites and grays are pretty much pointless.

Why not have rares drop seldomly, but be totally awesome almost all the time. Blues drop on occasion, but be pretty sweet so you still be excited about them. And here's a revolutionary idea...how about making some white drops be really great? Not all the time, but there should be a chance that a white can drop that's rolled so good it makes you consider using it over a magic or rare.

OR - make whites required for crafting! That would make crafting feel more interactive - having to hunt down a common version of the item you want to craft. Whites might even show up in the AH then.

And that's another thing - one of the biggest differences with Diablo 2, no Auction House. In my opinion, the AH breaks the game. I was really excited about crafting - but with the AH its pointless and trivial. Crafting materials can be bought so cheap, it never makes sense to salvage. No point in saving up gems to combine up to the top gem when you can purchase just the ones you need for less than it would cost to craft them.

The other issue I find, is that I can always buy the best possible gear easier/faster than I can find it. So if I'm equipped with great gear, and with weapons beyond my level (due to adjusted level requirement) I'm basically grinding away finding rares that are shite compared to what I have. Which brings us back to the first problem...

Ahh, gotcha! That makes much more sense. Sorry for the 'n00b' questions - I just didn't look hard enough at the stats.

I have a lvl 45 Barb that I've been playing off and on when I have time (still haven't gotten anything to inferno yet). I just crafted a sweet two handed sword with 144DPS and +143 Strength.

I thought that was pretty good for a lvl45 item, better than what I've been finding at least. But then I looked in the AH to see what was available, and whoa! People are selling 600DPS weapons for lvl45 Barb. That seems like quite a disparity - I've never seen anything over 200DPS for my level, and here are people getting massively powerful weapons.

What gives? How long would you have to play to find something like that?

I'm curious about shields too - if you sell it let us know what it goes for
