I mean when everyone else is at level 70, it's very likely that MP10 won't keep up with the inflated DPS numbers. So I'm really hoping they increase the difficulty and not just in act 5.
I'm 100% sure acts 1-4 will be "bumped up" in difficulty. It would be kinda ridiculous if acts 1-4 would become obsolete for the expansion. They also said there won't be an additional difficulty setting IIRC, so they need to have another solution for leveling 1-70. Maybe MP1+ will set all monsters on Inferno to level 70 automatically (which would cause some other problems, e.g., people on an MP10 ironman have this gap between Hell and Inferno). I dunno. Well, one more thing I'm looking forward to at Blizzcon ;-)
Agreed, very interested to see how they're going to deal with these issues. I am sure they have thought this through, as the plan all along was to release expansion packs to raise the level cap.
Yeah, I'm the guy who deleted his account with 2 Paragon 100s. You don't remember me so I can understand that.
Sorry, I missed that (it makes me curious though why you did that/how that happened). But with 2 paragon 100s you also belong to this very small percentage of top players. So maybe MP is deprecated for you, but for many others it's not ;-) You'll get loot runs and Neph Trials though to keep yourself entertained, come RoS.

What's interesting is that the level cap is now 70 and we know that loot exists at an ilvl of at least 70. Does this mean that in mp0 act 5 only drops ilvl 64 loot? Would make more since to scale the loot drops across the 5 acts.
Act 1 = max ilvl 62
Act 2 = max ilvl 64
Act 3 = max ilvl 66
Act 4 = max ilvl 68
Act 5 = max ilvl 70
MP1+ = max ilvl 70
That makes no sense. Remember the initial Inferno loot table? Blizzard fixed this quite soon. If your guesstimate would be true, no one would farm act 1-4 anymore. Besides, act 1 would drop "worse" loot than now (up to 63 on MP1+). Besides, remember that item drops scale with monster level, not act/area/whatever as soon as you enable Monster Power.
Another thing is that Monster Power has sort of become deprecated, we either need higher MP or remove it and make Inferno truly difficult again. Especially once players get 3k dps 1H (and god knows what the other slots will have). Players will reach 1M dps easily.
1m DPS will be the new 100k DPS. Of course level 70 mobs on MP0 will be much stronger, and level 70 MP10 mobs will kick your ass so hard...
Besides, I'm really confused how as a 95k DPS demon hunter you can say "MP is deprecated". I personally have not managed to farm MP10 on most of my characters. I really don't get what you mean by deprecated MP, please elaborate. Note: no one cares if 500k DPS cookie cutter monks or barbs (aka credit card warriors or super lucky 24/7 players, don't wanna offend anyone) can clear MP10. That's only the case for a very very very small percentage (< .1%) of the player population.
