Anyone else getting "input limit reached" immediately upon login? :frown:
Hrm, OK I finally got in. I noticed that I was getting spammed with "[Soandso] has requested to join the clan." I wonder if that was triggering some kind of disconnect due to too much chat spam.
Just a PSA - if you're having a really long queue to join or start a softcore game, try hardcore. Last night I couldn't touch any of my softcore characters but I was able to have a great time playing HC.

Yes, this is happening to me frequently. It's really nice after a long queue.

This. Hardcore was a 0 length queue. The PTR is temporary work anyway, so try out hardcore with a new character!
I played a bit with my DH and i'm glad most skills got buffed and are doing quite a lot of damage. Now i'm trying to play with Ballistic and Granadier passives, i always loved the idea of a rocket shooting archer or using granades.
The problem is that this character is already geared fairly well and i don't think i can enjoy farming a lot so i will probably roll another character from level 1 and avoid twinking it to test Loot 2.0.
One complain i have is about smart loot: it looks like it's too smart. I admit i didn't play much but from what i saw, all rares i got always rolled Dex/Vit or one of the two. Maybe it's just rng, but i only got one WD helm with Int/Vit, but non class items were always tailored for a DH. I hope we can still find non class items tailored for our alts while we farm.
Oh yeah, and not even a single shield dropped....
Yeah DH is much better now. I really like the active/passive thing they did with the Pets. Makes them more fun to use then just cast once and forget it. I was using the Wolf last night, that short active buff you get (30% dmg boost for everyone in your group) is real sweet. Also I was stoked to see that Cluster arrow, Elemental arrow, and Multishot got some much need boosts. They actual kill things now! I'll have to try out Strafe tonight. Hopefully the queing isn't as bad as last night.
Also. Random other DH note. Did anyone else notice it sounds like the female DH's voice has changed? She sounds kinda butch now. lol
Strafe is working quite well too, but i think the Demolisher Rune is still the best one. I'm using this Strafe build:http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/demon-hunter#USehgV!bgX!.ccZYZ (Granades rune is Granade Cache and passives are Vengeance, Nightstalker and Granadier). It's an old one but viable.
And yeah, Female DH got a new voice over.
Nice, look forward to trying it tonight. I may try it with Fan of Knives too (instead of Chakram) since you can cast FoK while strafeing. I think there was a new FoK rune that did some crazy 1200% DPS or something, but had a 15sec CD.
Do you know if the grenadier passive works with the grenades on the Strafe Demolition, and Cluster Arrow?... Or is it just standard grenades it works with?
Anyone else getting the "Servers Down" message when logging in? At the exact moment i sat down to start playing the PTR for the first time, i got this message, after queueing for nearly 60mins. God damnit.
Yes, same here. I started (my very first) PTR account two hours ago and after those two hours of excitement I was disconnected. Error_33 popped up a.k.a. "Server Maintenance". Any of you (PTR Veterans) know for how long can this be?
^Yeah I just played the last hour or so, it was fine. They've corrected a lot of the issues. One remaining though is difficulty. Because its played on the ros server, the difficulty is not scaled for vanilla. Its' just too easy which is counter productive to us testing the new skills when basically anything works because of the lower difficulty.
Another thing is I dont get why they dont add a "-" button to the paragon system. If I want to make a minor adjustment I have to reset everything, its annoying when you have a lot of points to spend. In addition they should just let us hold down the + button to add points instead of clicking 50 times to max a category.
I'm stuck in authenticating credentials for 20mins.... after a 30mins queue :\
Fucking sucks...

I gave up trying to log in on my 60s in expert or mastery levels. Started up new toons, 8 min que last night (prime US time).

Cant even play right now, I keep getting input limit reached then it disconnects me.
Worked just fine for me for the last couple of hours
