@Huminator: Rather harsh from you :|.

@nograndplan: Your loh should be fine without the Blackthorne amulet. Get one with critical hit damage and critical chance instead. If you can afford it then there should be +damage on it and/or dex and if you like attack speed (choose what you can afford). And basically the same thing for your gloves and rings! Lastly, as Huminator said, sockets in your weapons combined with smaragds would give you an enormous dps boost.

The legendary rings Unity and Skull Grasp (legacy-version) are rather cheap and offer crit chance and loh too, if you need it.

I'm just hoping they have in town duels. They also need to implement a way to join specific games from lobby. So i guess titled games just like in D2.

Grats. Quite impressive. Especially so many months after release.

I'm kinda interested in the tax aspect though. It surely depends on what exactly the DIablo 3 AH is considered to be. Gambling or hobby?

Some gambling income in Denmark is taxable, while some isn't (solely depending on whether or not the gamling provider is accepted within EU or not, it seems).
The reason seems to be, that in the cases were gamling income is not taxable, it is because the gambling provider is paying the tax before giving you the prize. Considering the relatively small AH fee Blizzard has, it seems reasonable to assume this is not the case here.

Income from "hobbies" generally seems to be taxable, if one is actually earning anything, so selling stuff for the same price as you bought it wouldnt be taxable - since there would be no profit obviously.

Anyone actually asked "Skat" (in Denmark in this particular case) or the tax administrations in other countries if Diablo income is taxable or not?
Pretty much only seeing people referring to their law-studying/lawyer friends etc, which hardly counts
The incomes some people are seeing (examplified by this thread) is getting large enough that people could get really into trouble if they didnt have the correct information.

But I have a question, sort of legal one, is the money you get from RMAH already been taxed in some country? If not, what kind of law would make you tax that income when you technically didn't make the income in your country? I mean if I go to other country, get a job there, it makes sense not to tax it in my home country...

That would very much depend on both the country and the specific situation.
If you work in one country and live in another, you would most likely have to pay tax in the country you live in (at least that is the case here), regardless of where you work. If you both work and live in another country it would be another matter of course.
Beside, when sitting at your PC and "playing the Diablo AH", you literally are making those money in your own country. It hardly matters that you are selling to someone outside your country, nor does it particularly matter where the servers etc. are placed (that probably matters for Blizzard). It is still you as a person who is making the money (and doing the work) as I see it.

To all the people saying you need alot of ias to use skorn. You are wrong.

Tempest Rush build: Skorn is used. And you want to have as little attack speed on your gear as posible.
Standard FoT build: Dual wielding is a better option.

All the million home made shit builds: Do not care about em, as they are worse than the 2 builds above. Worse = borring.

Every single one of your posts is another gem.

Keep 'em coming.

@Huminator: How much LS would you say equals "X" LOH? I'm at ~70K paper dps in my MF gear, and around 1200 LOH and zero LS.
