    Pit_Stains posted a message on PvP Team theory creation time!
    HappyRage - Your idea of having a Barbarian as the "tank" won't work. I don't have the link ready, but they've said the all the classes will be able to take the same amount of damage.

    As for my team though:
    You must have the Monk and Barbarian solely for the Aura's and Warcry's.
    The 3rd... that's the hard part.
    Wizard v. Witch Doctor v. Demon Hunter

    I would have to go with the Wizard because I think the Wizard will have the most CC and a good mix of survivability (get-away / second-chance) skills.

    So: Monk, Barb, Wizard

    I think Diablofans should do a mix of Random, Contest, and Activity based giveaways.

    The random giveaways will bring more people to the site and force them to sign up.

    Contests will allow people with skills/talents a way to showcase their stuff.

    Activity (ie. getting people more involved) -- meaning things like: Like us on Facebook, Subscribe on Youtube, and Follow on Twitter to be be entered into a drawing. Also things like: Start a creative topic about Diablo 3 on the site that gets more than 40 replies to be entered into a drawing.

    Quote from Cyber_Cheese

    And the game grows even more similar to titan quest

    Hmm... because Titan Quest isn't anything like D2?

    This is awesome!

    Take out the few flaws of TP's from D2, like Bashiok said, and there's really nothing wrong with having TP's.

    My guess is that there will be some type of cooldown (5 minutes or so), only be usable out of combat, and not in a boss areas (similar to Ancients from D2).

    Good post :)

    Pit_Stains posted a message on Town Portals Are Coming Back to D3?!?
    source: http://forums.battle.net/thread.html?topicId=27813861152&sid=3000&pageNo=1

    Original Post:
    Ok Town Portal is out of the game (Good)
    But what if i join a game and want to play with peoplethat already playing, i need take near waypoint and walk all the way to meet others?
    We cannot have a one side TP?
    Or ideas?
    Looking for a Blizz qod on that if possible.


    Blizzard Quote (Bashiok):
    We've always been trying to see if we can create a better system than town portals, making waypoints the main travel back to town mechanic. But, it's looking like it's just simply more fun and a quality-of-life-nicety to be able to jump back to town from anywhere even if waypoints are all over the place. Plus it's not really that hard to avoid the few pitfalls that TPs in Diablo II had.

    There is actually a mechanic that allows you to jump from town (one-way) to any other player in the game.

    We'll be developing the game up until release, and then likely well after. ;)



    To me that sounds like Town Portal are coming back? woot woot :D

    They won't be usable in the same manner as D2, but it definitely sounds like they will be back. Maybe only usable in some areas (like NOT in boss fights (Ancients)), cooldowns, etc.. Which is awesome news to me.

    I'm so jealous!

    July 27th is so close, yet so far away. But does this mean we won't get any news for over a month while we wait for August 1rst ...?

    Class: Monk
    Name: Spirit Walk
    Ranks: 3
    Effect: Increases the Monks movement speed by 10/20/30 percent, while decreases pathing size by 15/30/45 percent allowing the Monk to get out of tight situation easier.

    Pit_Stains posted a message on Shared Artisans
    I thought I remember reading they don't want mindless farming (for things like professions and reputation), so the idea of having shared Artisans, or at least the ability to directly share the items made by Artisans, makes sense. The epitome of mindless farming for Artisans would be having to do each time on each character. I don't mind a big grind, but having to do it on each character, no thank you. I support the idea.

    PhrozenDragon - exactly. It would be a big (huge) project just to separate all the information into the respected database. But from my point of view, that's the easiest way. The only other way I can think of would be to modify every page and add a "tag" (ie. for Diablo 3, it could be "Diablo3SearchTag") and then filter the search by that tag.

    Either way... it would be a ton of work.

    I'm not sure what kinda of Wiki it is, but if it's SQL based... It would be easy if they were separated into their own individual database.
