Thanks for sharing Steamrice.
What resolution and ping do you have?

I agree that using "shift" and targeting "in the direction" helps a lot (I'm training to play this way too, before I used "shift" but targeted a monster").
But there are scenarios (like crowded/packed groups of monsters) or skills (Haunt, GotD, etc) that require good targeting or would be totally, or partially, wasted.

Example: summoners with lot of skellies packed close around them.
If I want to cast Haunt on the summoners but their hitbox is not selectable because its "shadowed" by the hitboxes of the skellies around them, I cannot attack "in front" or "just behind" them.

With hitboxes like yours or Ayr's it would be less problematic, but with hitboxes like the ones I posted above it become really reaaaalllly difficult.

If it is latency related (which seems to be the case) or resolution related or some other technical reason, well, fine, I shall accept it.
But I'd like to know why and how it is so and not the usual "working as intended" stuff.

(yep, I'm a picky brat)

lol, they messed things up a bit, region selection shouldn't be there, RMAH (xts, no more ptr???) does not work...but I got a rare 2-handed sword from a barrel in cath lvl 3 (or was it 2?) so I'm happy.
Pity right now servers are down.

Thanks for sharing!

I've no budget for books right now, hope I will be able to collect them if better lucks come.

Thanks for sharing!

I tried to relese him, carefully crashed all the barrel but the one you see under its left wing.
Then, holding "force attack" I made sure to have the barrel on sight and not the monster, I shot....and it died

I was wondering if its aura may work as the paladin one, buffing nearby monsters and just dealing fire damage at distance.
Unfortunately there was none nearby.

Hope to met a similar one which is free to roam about to check how it works.

This morning I met this:


it seems to have an aura like the old Holy Fire (if memory serves) and exploded on dieing.
Unfortunately it was "locked" behind the barrels and when I tried to crush them to free it, thanks to the wonderful targeting system, it died (well, quite a weakling really).
Anybody else met this fellow?

I wonder if Dashing Strike could do the same...with it you can go past closed gates or baricades (same as Leap)

Not met a waller yet, if it happens I'll give it a try.

I look forward to release so I can test the game with better FPS and latency , hope it will solve some little issue.

Thanks for sharing!

Well, the percentages are well balanced.
I wonder how it will change after people get the chance to test all classes.
Thanks Kirisu!

A rare mob will spawn on Cath L3, creating the only possibility of an elite Servant of Jondar

Could be this huge guy? met him just before fighting Jondar

Also we should account for gear.
There was a blue stating that items will affect skills: maybe we will find an "helmet of shepherd" with "increase pet lives by X%" or something like that.

In beta they seem quite balanced, does not die to often against normal monsters, maybe I lose one or two against rare/champions and they are not a match for bosses/minibosses.....seems fair enough.

Playing zoomed-in with a caster/ranged is an incredible "headache generator".
But sure is challenging.

Some really nice sets there, can't wait to see them in game.
Thanks for sharing!

Time to reroll all classes once again!
Thanks for the update Molster!

some nice new fellows in there, great!
Thanks Bouboille!

Thanks Ayr for sharing.
I borrow one of your pics to make a comparison.
The difference is clearly visible and this reassures me somewhat.
Anybody else with lower/higher latency willing to take a screenshot of a skeleton hitbox and share it?

Ayr (Montreal, Canada, 100ms, 1920x1080)

Quote from Ayr

pikke (Massa, Italy, 225ms, 1280x1024)

I play it on my desktop.
Resolution is 1280x1024, latency is 225ms, never below 200ms and when EU servers will go live my latency should be about 75-100ms.

Either Blizzard just ignores our questions about this or I'm not able to find out a single blue addressing it.

If any of you could find a blue about this stuff, please post a link.
Thanks in advance.

@snared04drummer: every contribution to the discussion is welcome but please read the other posts before answering.
As you could have noticed both me and maka are from Europe while you should be in Texas.
Also you yourself complain about "hearing way too much bitching about this": if lot of people complain about this maybe there is something to complain about?

You don't have this issue, that solve it all, why didn't I realize it sooner!??!?!
