Hello all,

I just wanted to start a little game/discussion for the forums here, for those of us who have been playing D3 since its release last year. Please post a memory you have of Diablo III that is no longer in the game, whether it has been removed by a patch, changed, no longer viable, etc. Feel free to comment on the memory of the person before you, and please add your own! If you like, you can also add pictures/screenshots as well.

I'll go first.

Diablo III: I remember when... we had Invulnerable Minions as an elite affix.



Note: Please, nothing immature like I remember when the game was good, or something like that. The point of this is to reminisce about things that people may have forgotten about, or haven't had the opportunity to experience if they started playing Diablo 3 at a later date. This is not a "let's bash Diablo III" thread. Thanks!

When those flying wasps things in act 2 really did insane damage with their projectiles!

When goblins spawns weren't as random as they should have been and people farmed them.

When Lacuni Huntresses were throwing ICBM Molotovs from off screen and one shot me if i wasn't fast enough to Smoke Screen them.

Nice ones guys! :Thumbs Up: I have another.

I remember when Wizards were able to become invulnerable with the Archon/Teleport bug.

When I first got Disintegrate - Convergence, and I was in the Keep Depths and I laughed like a maniac for a good half hour.

Miising time when legendary didnt have beam ,its so simple and brings diffrent felling when u see it like this

Lickers would engage in brutal tongue-rape from off the screen.

I remember when Resplendent Chests and events did NOT give a Nephalem Valor stack.

I remember when helm of command was the BIS, and I dreamed of being able to afford a justice lantern.

I remember when Molten and Ice bombs didn't have an explosion blast radius.

-sword'n Board for barbs
-splinters and bears for WD's
-blizzard and poison hydra for sorcs
-nether tentcle for DH's
-IAS before nerf
-when LoH was King

Q3 2015: I remember when the AH was the only way to get items.

@Slayerviper bears is still the best skill DPS wise.

Mine actually relates, surprisingly enough...though doesn't involve time travel into the future, :-)

I remember how my heart sank when my Wizard (who used to be my main) hit level 60, and I wanted to play less and less because using the Auction House for 12 years was such a crummy thought.

Granted, I didn't play Diablo 1 or 2 for 12 solid years straight, but I can still go back to those and enjoy. I didn't relish the idea of buying items from other players and staring at menus for the rest of my time playing. Luckily, Paragon levels and self-finding some decent gear for my Monk kept me going.

I remember when the Hellfire ring did over 3m crits on the first version of the 1.0.5 PTR.

Why do you guys keep on reminding all this annoying stuff? It wasnt fun, its not nostalgic. Stop posting this crap.

Some of it was annoying. Enrage timers, those sucked. Like, don't apply an enrage timer if I don't know long I have before getting one-shot. I remember when legendary and set items didn't have a beam...wasn't annoying, but you gotta admit...seeing a beam is pretty friggin nice. Even if it's a crappy legendary or set or a just key, seeing a beam is awesome and I'm glad those items do that.

Then again, I do miss when Reflect Damage was an always-on buff for bad guys. I do kinda sorta miss Invulnerable Minions, they were really hard, but they definitely encouraged people to use more single-target skills to ace a rare champion fast to get rid of his guards. Slayerviper mentioned sword and board for Barbs, that'll most likely be coming back after Loot 2.0 and the expansion both help Shields become way more viable.

I remember when I got Chaos Nexus for the first time, and it spawned like 8 or 9 tendrils off my Wizard...instantly became my favorite Disintegrate rune...though I absolutely want to find good uses for the others, love Disintegrate.

Not really something that was removed but it was changed because of a patch:

I remember when Stormshield was the best item for a Barbarian and sold for 75m. When 75m was actually a lot of gold.

I remember when people were paragon levelling to 100 by killing witchdoctor pets in pvp without even sitting at their computers ..

I remember when a party of 4 Monks were able to have unlimited invulnerability with the Serenity exploit.

I remember when demon hunters didn't have hatred generators.
