Yawn. They're using a bunch of wordy responses in hopes to confuse the reader's actual issues with the game. Straw man, deflection, camouflaging. Whatever. The game is flawed, it's lazy, and it's cheap. I don't die because I'm bad, I die because the game mechanics are cheap. There's no skill, there's no intense moments where I have to use a correct sequence to survive a given situation (unless you consider trap, kite, run,shoot "skill"). And now I'm just about out of hell and feel like I accomplished nothing. Why? Because when I died I just went back to the mobs and unloaded and died again and repeat. There were no tactics, nothing other than kiting and shooting and dying. Obviously you want this to be a gear check.. great. Guess what? I didn't get a single rare item in Hell for my class. I didn't get a single upgrade in hell. The harder the game got, the worse the drops got. This is a fact. Sure, involve luck, but should lucky keep me completely out of balancing my character when I'm putting more time and effort into the game? This makes no sense. But hey, I got a bunch of other classes upgrades and rares. What a coincidence, I can now use the auction house to sell these items and buy item that anther class got that would have benefited me. Why is this not shocking? Why, it's the RMAH. Obviously it hasn't been released, but that completely irrelevant considering it was meant to be released shortly after launch.
So now I've purchased my gear in the AH. Fantastic. Wait, no it isn't. It completely contradicts the ARPG genre. Instead of being rewarded for my time and effort into killing those shiny yellow and bold blue mobs with an upgrade, I receive a golden ticket to log out of the game and reward myself with a hefty burden of browsing the auction house. Oh fun. Now that I've put the effort into killing these mobs I get to put even more time into rummaging through this annoying storefront. Just fantastic.
Or you could have the willpower to actually farm. Pretty sure you didn't just play through the highest difficulty once in other ARPGs and end up with TEH GUD GEER!
Good god, none of you have any will power whatsoever.
I've purchased like 3 items off of the AH and I'm on the last quest of A3 Inferno, playing legit, by myself. (As in I didn't abuse that stupid ass SS/prep shit)

I wouldn't say it's more. You get a 15% attack speed from dual wielding, and you get two 2.33's instead of a single source of 2.33. (assuming max)
So 4.66 vs 2.33 just in regen.
Plus attack speed differences...2h will hit harder but I don't think it'll make much difference.

Wizard can only get Arcane Power via crits I think.. (affix wise)

Interesting!
That would be 2x Fist, 1x Monk Helm, 2x SoJ, 1x Highest Ammy and then a belt.

Bashiok did say something about that.
However: a CS representative has stated that you can't get refunds / reimbursements.

Funny that the people posting in here haven't seen that message from Bashiok >_>

If you don't care, why post here? The world doesn't revolve around you ;]

I always thought DiabloFans was a site for finding love. They lied when they promised I could meet females who were interested in Diablo, I guess :(.

Not only that - it's just a freaking feat of strength. It does absolutely nothing. It doesn't reward any points, and it doesn't show up unless you have it.
NOT EVERYBODY GETS A GOD DAMNED TROPHY.

Of course, but there's a difference between extremely rare situations and a normal situation :P.
