    Zhaph posted a message on This is how you play the game
    Quote from Badglad

    Not to be a dick, but most people prefer to maximize dps and toughness, and there's usually a mathematically proven way that beats others. Should everyone be forced to play that mathematically superior spec? Hell no. Is it wrong of us to try to force these ideals on others? Well, that depends. If you're playing solo, I don't care! It's when poorly geared, ignorant people get into your public games where it's a pain. Please learn to differentiate between group and solo play before giving advice like "Let everyone play their own way". If you want to play your own way, please do, but by yourself or with friends. If you're going to be LFG'ing/joining public games/bumming runs off your clan, at least have decent knowledge of your class and gear.
    This is why vote kicks exist; if there is someone in your group that you feel isn't properly geared and/or playing in the same style as the rest of you, AND you've already mentioned it and asked them to leave and they haven't, then you can easily get rid of them.

    Folks will need your full battle.net name (which includes a # sign and a 4-digit number) to hit you up in the game; I think that you will find that most people probably won't take the time to e-mail, so update your post to include your full b.net handle. Good luck with the recruiting!

    Yeah, I have, and nothing happens. :( Also, I have player health bars enabled, and I can always see those, just not the names above them. Weird, right?

    Zhaph posted a message on NERF Manglemow please!
    Quote from dephness

    i multibox (4) , and i did manglemaw for a little over an hour last night and got over 30 legs, its pretty bad. it needs a nerf.

    No way i'm doing it again its way too easy to get gear that way
    Everyone keep in mind that that is <10 legendaries per character; since he was playing all 4 at the same time, he got to keep every one that dropped for every character. I'm not saying that 8-9 legendaries per hour isn't still a lot, though. Roughly how many "runs" did you do in a hour? I'm guessing around 45 (because it takes around 1.5 minutes per run), which is a legendary roughly every 5 runs, which doesn't seem like a broken amount if you're running, say, T3-4+. Just my opinion though.

    (disclaimer: I've never done this run myself, other than via questing through the game of course.)

    Anyone else having this problem? Even since I started playing RoS I can't see any players' names above their characters in-game. I know there's a toggle for it, but when I checked it was on (as it had always been). I've tried un- and re-toggling, still no fix. Is this a known issue? I can't find information on it anywhere else. Thanks!

    One bump, and no more, I promise. :) This really doesn't bother anyone else at all?

    Zhaph posted a message on Any way to show gold amounts on the ground?
    Hey folks, got a quick gold question here. I know that Blizz wants to remove "screen clutter" and as such has disabled showing gold amounts when you press ALT. That's all find and well, but sometimes I want to know how much I'm picking up, and if I walk over several piles I can't read the amounts fast enough before they disappear. I've looked in the options to re-enable this feature and couldn't find anything. Is it possible? Anyone else having this issue?

    Sorry to hear it, but thanks for the advice. Maybe you could edit your post to include a hidden spoiler that lets players know where they will encounter Urzael in case they don't want to watch the video. Thanks again!

    Quote from Coaster_Man
    OP I believe they are doing this 1 week only thing because they want to get a high number of sales in the first week so they can market "we sold this many copies in the first week".
    Agreed. Didn't they set some sales records or something for the first week of D3? It would be pretty embarrassing for Blizz if they didn't come close, or at least halfway, to those numbers with the expansion.

    Zhaph posted a message on Wings and other cosmetics.
    Quote from Aremi

    I don't want the wings to be attached to my account and I'm forced to wait until 1st of April before registering my key. They are giving it to everyone until then, no way to opt out. I hope they won't prolong the period... This should be optional as the rest of marketing cosmetics.
    Why would you care if they are attached to your account? You don't have to use them. I'm not trying to be antagonistic here, I'm genuinely interested in why you would go so far as to wait several extra days before registering just to avoid the wings. Did you have a bad experience with Red Bull? Just kidding, but really, why wait?

    Zhaph posted a message on The RMAH Destroyed Diablo 3 and I Told You So
    So... this is just an "I told you so," loosely arranged into what appears to be some kind of argument, but lacking any critical evidence/support? All those quotations just seem to be calling people out for no reason, and a lot of them don't really follow, argument-wise. The RMAH is down. Go play the game you ranted for (but apparently only recently bought).

    Finally, please work on the following: 1) coming up with a GOOD reason to argue for/against something next time, like trying to affect change; 2) presenting logical arguments with reasonable evidence from trusted sources.

    For what it's worth, I personally never liked the RMAH and never used it, but this anti-RMAH trolling after the fact is just ridiculous.

    Zhaph posted a message on Smart Drops: Not a smart idea...
    I agree (mostly) with the OP: smart drops are great, but they do make it tougher to gear out alts. I like the idea of being able to turn off smart drops all together; I don't like the idea of being able to change it to a specific class, as I think that has the potential for a lot of abuse.

    Quote from Vaizard87
    I've been playing for a long time (as have most of you) but my #1 and #2 have been tried and true since launch. Take or leave :)
    Uh, leave it. Leave it easily. This is just hearsay, unsubstantiated and not backed by any kind of evidence from Blizzard. What you are experiencing is a combination of RNG and confirmation bias.

    Zhaph posted a message on Paragon 500!
    Quote from kangaxx2890

    gogo, keep on exploiting and trying to break the game in new ways just to level paragons as if it were a race, you really are a sour point in the community and an example not to follow
    I don't understand this comment, but I don't watch streams either. Was the OP accused and/or guilty of manipulating game mechanics do get to P500? Personally, I think it's a really awesome accomplishment, so if there's not real evidence that he was "[breaking] the game," then I think it should be applauded, especially considering how far he's come in the last several days alone. For the record, I don't think utilizing mob-dense areas (like CotA) or taking advantage of multiple players, +XP gear, or the community experience bonus are game-breaking.
