Hi everyone,
Just a little story. I was very desperate a few months ago, actually it was a year and 4 months ago.
I played WoW for over 4 years (i'm stupid i know), spent over 8 hours a day even on school days and job days EVERY SINGLE DAY. I took WoW too seriously as being MORE than a game, I had no friends except on the game and such, I looked nerdy and all, was so shy at school and when going out i was speaking to no one.
Now, I changed a little bit, I sold my WoW account (i was just tired of the game, got boring after 4 years of doing arenas...) then stopped gaming totally. In only 4 months after that, I met LOTS OF FRIENDS (the first 2 months were shitty since i had nothing to do) just by going out walking and trying some new things. Then I met my awesome, pretty & sexy girlfriend (which is watching me writing this right now and laughing hard XD), but yeah, she is very pretty ;). So now i have lots of friends, a girlfriend, im going back to school in september, i bought a car a year ago too, i'm much more mature now and i'm 19. Also, I started going at the gym 3-4 months ago and yup, i got those muscles and girls look at me... (but i don't care I have already everything i want, an awsome girl & life)
So, i promised something to myself, i've always loved Blizzard's games and Diablo 3 looked like CRAZY (played D2 for 3 years when i was 11). So i bought back an other computer for 800$ with a Razer mouse. Started making youtube commentary videos and i don't spend more than 3 hours a day on the game. I prefer giving to the community and being known & having friends than being a nerd no lifer. cause yes I was unfortunately.....
So yeah, i'm very active on those forums but most of the time when I write here, i'm with my girl in her bed and she also has her laptop on her legs (just like right now).
I know this story looks stupid, i'm just talking about myself and stuff but it's for people that are like me, like i were before... I know they are out there and can get out of that stupid addiction! The life is so much better when you have friends on which you can count. A game is a game, not a championship or anything. D3 is very addictive, i totally agree on that... But make sure to not waste your time on it, friends before anything else. When school come back in september, i'll barely have time to play the game, but i already have my characters lvl 60 and good geared so i won't have to play much either...
Thank you for this big reading and i hope you've liked this ''kind of'' stupid post by me :$

VegasRage posted a message on The Good Karma inc. President (you should read this)Nice selections, to victory :cheers:! Like we were talking about earlier, sending the extra PC was not too much but after all we went through to no avail, to not go forward in my mind would have been wrong. It would have been like dangling a big cookie at you only for you not to be able to eat it in the end. I hate endings to stories like thatPosted in: General Discussion (non-Diablo) -

Nacho_ijp posted a message on The Good Karma inc. President (you should read this)This is a story of great generosity and I thought I should share it with you guys. It may be a bit long but you won't regret itPosted in: General Discussion (non-Diablo)
I've been on this forum for a couple of years now, I've been very active and also I've been only lurking, but at the imminent arrival of D3 I thought I should check the forum to witness all the excitement of my fellow Dfans.
But I knew I would only see it and not experiment it because I didn't have a PC good enough to run the game, I had to spend the money I was saving because real life is complicated.
So I posted this in the URT to vent a bit of my disappointment, all those years waiting and speculating and debating about angels and demons, guessing classes and story lines and now I couldn't play the game, it was a downer.
Little I expected to find that a Dfans user would take action to prevent this, VegasRage, the most generous person I ever met, and I never even met him in real life, from the other side of the continent he offered to send me a computer (and to pay the shipment and all) to Argentina. You can guess my surprise and excitement, not every day one finds such a selfless person.
But that's not all, he sent the PC, but it was (and still is) stuck in commons, something about importing used stuff (it was a used pc). My first thought was "it was nice while it lasted", I told Vegas I couldn't receive the computer and that it was it, but he refused to give up. He decided to send me the money to buy a brand new PC here!!!
I couldn't believe it, I mean, this guy doesn't even know me! but he's willing to give me such a gift, is not a cheap thing, it's a brand new computer!!
And all of this after a week or so of fighting the system (we tried to find out if a wire transfer was easier, it turns out it's not, all the ordeal with commons and FedEx, and all the paperwork involved) finally he sent me the money through Western Union. I still don't know how to thank him, I don't think I can thank him enough. He took this as a personal quest to make it possible for me to play this game and not only that, a computer is a fantastic tool for a lot of things and I plan to make the most out of it.
VegasRage, he's the president of Good Karma inc. the most generous and selfless person I've met, he gave me the best gift I can think of: to actually know there are really good people in this world! this is a fantastic human being and I'm in his debt, and I hope someday I can give back what he gave me
Now go on, give him the luv he deserves, he has made this forum greater than anyone could have ever imagined, it's an honour to have him among us
PS: pics or it didn't happened right?
Here's all the boxes and stuff that make a computer a computer
Cleaning the table (I thought I'd never use that sentence in english class in highschool)
Unboxing the PC
Everything in its place
Me, connecting stuff (cables are the worst hehe)
Done!!
You may ask, where's the screen? well, the one I wanted (a cheap but good one) wasn't in stock, so it will take a while for me to get it, in the mean time a friend will lend me hers (she's not using it) and when I get mine I'll post the pics with everything running
THANK YOU VEGAS!!!!!

Also is there a major increase in gem and item plan drops. Cause I've just done 1 runthrough of Act 3 and 4 and probably 7 item plans dropped and 1 gem plan. Just weird.

I was hesitant to keep the following, since it's not what the thread is about. But I just came back from an exam and my mind was on D3 ever since and this was the first thread I read...sorry
I'm not pointing my dislike towards you, but when I see a post/thread/vid with whichever accomplishment done with a WW barb build, my brain instantly goes to "meh". Don't get me wrong, it's a fucking HUGE accomplishment to get to para 100 and I'm envious, but it's not challenging doing it with a WW barb tbh.
I've just checked the top 50 barbs para 100 on diabloprogress and ONLY 6 doesn't have WW as an active skill...cookie-cutters everywhere.
Paragon 100:
738 barbs (44% of total)
245 DH
318 Monks
101 WD
286 Wiz
But yeah I probably sound like a major jealous douche asshole, but that's just how I feel

Why do objects have mass? We didn't have any concrete scientific explanations why objects have mass and that's where the Higgs Boson Particle (HBP) come in. Before the discovery of the HBP, this was a theoretical elementary particle (a particle with no smaller substructure. unlike an atom which has protons, neutrons and electrons in its substructure each with their own mass. Elementary P is basically the same as an stand alone proton with its own mass) that can scientifically explains why objects have mass. Somehow this particle explains why objects have mass.
It will be helpful to go read articles about the discovery yourself. They kinda explain it in layman's terms.
And a joke!

You can do status updates, but there's not a central place to view everybody's status updates...which is really crappy. I enjoyed commenting on what was on people's minds, but meh. When can ask one of the mods to try and get it implemented!

Then give the guy a well deserved rep point!!!

@Tralari - Yeah that's a white goblin and only drops deuces; and you HAVE to pick those up!

Mmm well yeah, your skills depend on DPS; so higher DPS = higher damage.
That sort of damage is on the weapon itself. In this instance (wizard), I think it only adds to your DPS and no extra "cold damage" since skills only depends on DPS. If you will physically hit the enemy with that weapon, THEN you'll do "+20-70 Cold Damage". So for a range class the "+ damage" adds to your DPS and not to specific skills.
Doesn't all weapons have this? Anyway it's almost the same as above. It's "extra" damage that adds to your DPS, which in return makes your skills better. INT as in Intelligence? This obviously makes the wizard's attack damage better. (I think, I've only played the monk and DEX increase my attack damage. Just hover over each in your inventory and you'll see what stats makes what better).
+17% damage is additional damage to your weapon's base damage. ie base damage = 100 damage. With +17% = 117 damage. So this is good to have. Whether this is already calculated into the weapon's DPS is probably correct, but I'm not sure. So basically you want high DPS. When you compare your items, everything on the weapon's popup is included, so you just have to compare and see how it changes.
Mmm, I sort of the same thing damage wise.
1. Base damage: 100 + 17% damage. Attack speed = 0%. Thus, lets say you do 117 damage/sec.
2. Base damage: 100 + 17% attack speed (never this high, usually 3-5%.). Somewhere in the region of 117 damage/sec or something.
But again. You only have to check, when you compare your weapons, which is better.
2H usually = more DPS, but the attacks are slow thus your casting will be slow.
One or two 1H = lower DPS, but the attacks are faster thus faster casting speed.
It depends what sort of skills you use. ie My monk uses two 1 handed weapons cause the monk generate spirit with attack hits. So faster weapons = more spirit gen. Dunno the wizards's skills, but if you for instance have like +100 health per hit, faster weapons will be better.
I think INT gives the wizard better damage or something. Mmm, depends how you're doin atm. If I kill demons easily, I'll rather "upgrade" my VIT and keep my DPS like it is and switch as I see fit.
I thinks it's included in the DPS. Blizz said they specifically did it like this, so we don't have to use 3de party apps to calculate your DPS...like in D2.
Hope this help...hope this is correct! :Thumbs Up:
