D3 and RoS on Sale
The infamous Black Friday is upon us, and both D3 and its expansion, Reaper of Souls, are on sale. At the Blizzard store you can buy each for US$ 20 bucks, and there has been quite a few reports on Reddit of other retailers (Walmart, Amazon) selling copies for as low as US$ 15! With another big content Patch and Season 2 on their way, this could be a great time to jump into the Diablo bandwagon!
Powerleveling Event on US
PsychoIntent started a Reddit thread informing US (Softcore) players of a powerlevel event for Thanksgiving. It was meant to happen Wednesday but he had some problems and will supposedly doing it tomorrow (or today depending on your time zone), 28th Friday, all day.
If you want to help powerleveling, need a character powerleveled yourself or just wanna hang out and have a good time, feel free to join them!
Hi everyone! We are back for more powerlevels!
We will start our first round at around 4:30 PM, EST.
How we do:
1) We'll run A1 Bounties, but not collect the Cache (4 Rift Keystones)
2) We'll open rifts to power level, consuming the four rift keystones.
3) After everyone is 70, we'll grab the Cache from Tyrael.
Last call for starting a new round of power levels will be 9:15 PM, EST.
How do I get in?
Join my Twitch channel (http://twitch.tv/PsychoIntent), and we will call out for who is looking for power levels. If more than three people, we'll hold a raffle. If not, those three are automatically in!
When one round of power leveling ends, we'll start another, so you always have a chance to get in later!
I don't want to hang out in your Twitch Channel, or follow you.
You don't have to. Friend me on Battle.Net (PsychoIntent#1733). I will send a broadcast out when the next round of raffles are starting. You will need to hop over to Twitch at this point, to enter into the raffle, and wait until it completes.
I can't make it tonight!
We'll be back again next week on Wednesday and Thursday.

Lightning Raekor's Guide
Rhykker has put together a detailed video guide for a Lightning version of a Raekor Barbarian. For those looking for a different character or build for when Season 2 starts (like me), this might be a viable alternative! Check it out.
I think he explains the differences of going Lightning on the video, and why he considers it better than fire. It made sense to me when I watched it (there is a Lightning CotA rune), but I'm not gonna lie - I'm no Barb expert, so there is a chance his advice for a Lightning Barb is not optimal.
Either way, it seemed like a really cool concept and one that I'm looking forward to trying out next Season, hopefully alongside a Monk too.
Also, while the gear requirements might seem "steep" for the average player, some players manage to farm Sets in about a week after a Season starts, and the other pieces aren't necessarily mandatory to make it work on the most basic level. So yeah, while for me it might take 3-4 weeks to get to that point, I'm sure some will find it useful earlier on.
Thanks for the feedback though. I'll try to find good "starter" 2.1.2 builds and guides, that actually make good use of the changes expected, once we're closer to the Patch release.
ye igor it also didnt drop for me, i got it from my wd friend
nice guide, but no way lightning can be better than fire, just cannot happen right now
you can either go fire with furnace or physical with the physical polearm, no other way to compete in top 100
