I've been looking for people to do uber runs and would love to find people with multiple machines to increase the odds of organ drops as much as possible. I've been rotating through all my characters but am probably best off playing either my barb as ww/tank or my DH as she can do the most damage. I'm also down to farm exp or whatever else people are interested in - it would be fun to not play by myself all the time. I'm going to be on tonight around 8 pm EST to farm act 1 until I get 3 keys to finish making 3 machines. Anyone up for some uber runs around 9 pm? I'll bring 3 machines and we can do a bunch of runs til we can craft some rings. Add me if interested or just looking for someone to play with. Griff1390#1481 is my bnet name. I'll add some of you fellas tonight once I get out of work
I've been looking for more people the play with as well. I have a level 60 of each class - I get bored of one and move to another (currently on a WW barb kick). I'm down for anything
- exp farming, high mp level challenge runs, über farming. I've been looking for a group where everyone has multiple machines to fight as many ubers as possible in one session. I haven't gotten a ring yet since I've been leveling alts in my spare time and would love to get one now. Anyway, my bnet name is griff1390#1481 - I'll be on around 8 pm EST tonight and I'll add some of you fellas and see if anyone is interested in playing. I'm planning on farming act 1 for keys so I can make 3 machines to tonight so if anyone wants to do ubers get some machines and let me know! Would love to have 4 people with multiple machines
I like the idea of a 7th skill slot being added to RMB and LMB and 1-4. However, I think this skill slot should be locked to 3 new skills that each class would get with 1.0.6. These skills would be powerful buffs that would benefit both solo and group play with longer cooldowns, something like 2-3 minutes. I play a demon hunter so something with options for the new skill slot like this might work.
1. your next 5 shots/hits have a 100% crit chance and double crit damage
2. your next 5 shots/hits restore 8% of your health
3. double all damage you and allies do for 10 seconds but you (not your allies) lose all resistances and 50% armor for 10 seconds
These would all apply to people that you're playing with so there could be some strategy involved in choosing cooldowns when fighting tough packs or bosses. If monks were given skills for this new slot like "reduce the damage you and your allies take by 20% for 5 seconds", the demon hunter could use the skill to double all damage done by everyone for 10 seconds and not have to worry as much about getting one-shot while his resistances are down.
I'm a fan of anything promoting group play and I think these skills would help with that and just provide more interesting choices. I would also not be opposed to them adding a way to join public games with monster power enabled. They would need a safe guard to make sure people with bad gear were not jumping into MP8 games, so maybe something like gearscore requirements like the have in WoW for queing for dungeons would work. I can run MP4 pretty efficiently and would love to join public games, but losing that MF and GF really stinks. Even if my theoretical gearscore only allowed me to join MP2 public games, I would still do it to have some fun rather than be stuck joining public games without monster power.
I wouldn't be too concerned right now with keeping your dex as high as it is. From what I see, you lack any crit or crit damage - this should be your priority. The best players get such high dps from having a lot of crit chance, crit damage, and increased attack speed. Getting one of these on an item isn't that expensive, but getting two on an item can increase the price by 10x that amount. For example, a few months ago I bought an amulet with stats that are something like this
+200 dex, +70 vit, +50 or so arcane resist, +53% crit damage
and I was able to get it from the AH for about 800K. That can be expensive depending who you ask, but last night I was trying to get a similar amulet that also had crit chance on it and they were selling for at least 5 million, and that's after the patch with more gear dropping for people. Getting higher DPS is going to take a bit of time, so I would focus on improving crit chance where you can and crit damage through your weapon.
To increase your crit, try searching for gloves with a crit of at least 7%. You can also get a bit vit, dex, all resist and/or the elemental resist of your choice and it might not be too expensive if you really search the AH. Look at items that are about the expire as this is where you can sometimes get the best bargains rather than using the "buy it now" option. Gloves are odd as you can even get 2 of crit chance, crit damage, and increased attack speed and the price won't grow astronomically unlike trying to get 2 of those stats on rings or amulets. I would also replace your fist weapon for a weapon with a socket for a green gem (increases crit damage) and crit damage built into it. I just did a search for a weapon with 100 dex, 50 crit damage, and a socket and found some with a 100K buyout and this would definitely boost your damage. I did a search for bracers with lightning resist, at least 100 dex, vit, and crit chance and I found some that had similar stats to yours (resist, dex, and vit) but also added 4% crit chance for under 50K.
You can do the same for your amulet and your rings but these can still be expensive. If you search the AH carefully for items like I mentioned you can boost your DPS without sacrificing too much survivability.
