the whole hype and QA bullshit of the necro is a waste of time. It just comes down to which set does the most damage and may as well remove the other 80% of the necro's skills from the game. I haven't even looked at the necro skills, I have no idea what the class does, and yet I'll just go to the set notes and see "increases X damage by 1600%". great, now I know how to play the fucking class.
fuck this game
Quote from Punch you in the Jeans
I'd never seen that rune effect video until now... I'd seen the other vid with the stationary characters firing off skills but the effects they have on monsters is so cool to see. I LOVE all the WD altered skills. A giant monster eating toad?! GENIUS!!! Saying that, it'd be interesting to see how the rune levels change the animations of things like that toad, if they do at all.
EDIT: Also, just for peoples' general knowledge and comparison I counted the number of monsters in the D2 Bestiary and there's about 73 all up, from Act 1-5 (without including Bosses, omitting doubles e.g with Fallan/Carver/Dark One only fallen is included in the count). I don't know if the 100 monsters they're talking about incorporating are all original but if so then

time-locked progression (dailies, etc) is a much better solution

It's not an MMO. The sooner you realize that (you won't) the more things will make sense. It's a single player campaign game with a multiplayer option.

D3 was intentionally designed as a console hit-it-and-quit-it style game that just happened to have a PC port and multiplayer options. Just accept it as a 2012 game that nobody plays anymore because it has been consumed already just like most other games.

Whether a death's breath farm build or a time-sensitive build that requires you to land on the next elite within 10 seconds, are there any community tips for identifying elites on the screen? Most of the time the colored glow isn't that apparent especially in a cluttered screen. Sometimes I cannot play with the sound on either. The best I can do now is look at the chat box and my minimap at the same time to navigate and see that I've run into an elite but it's a bit bothersome. Any suggestions?

There's nothing else to focus on. The next main affix would be attack speed. The stat system in this game is flawed at the foundation and the only way to fix it would be to reinvent it entirely. Mirroring D2 and not WoW would be a good start at doing that.

If you're only playing "to get stronger" and not for fun, WoW may be the game you're looking for.
D3 is a casual game to waste extra time on. The sooner you realize that, the happier you'll be.

If you actually make a deaths breath speed farm build with the sages set, you'll consume your other materials faster than your DB income. It's not really a shortage at all. It just is at first.

No, you cannot top the ranks of a completely time-based game if you have outside responsibilities.

I used Schaeffer's Hammer until I cubed my furnace (which didn't take long, just work on that) and switched WW to the lightning rune. 850% wep dmg per second 100% of the time aint too shabby

Does Bloodbath simply apply Rend to all nearby targets when they die? Or is it a separate bleed?
1) Does Bloodbath stack with Rend if it's separate?
2) Does Bloodbath apply another stack for Lamentation if it's not separate?

If you play this game as it was meant to be, a time-waster, then you'll enjoy it a lot more.
If all you focus on is topping leaderboards then you're gonna have a bad time. This isn't WoW, let alone a real competitive game like CS/DOTA/SC

unwatchable video. HUGE warning to people with headphones

I really don't understand why this game has such a slow development process. Why do the PTRs last longer than a WoW content patch? Why does it take 3 weeks to tweak numbers on some item bonuses? Why even tweak numbers in this game? Something being overpowered doesn't fking matter
