Jaelzadeon posted a message on More Diablo 3 Beta Invites!Glad to hear more people are getting in. I wonder if more things will be posted in the AH now? Last few days there's been nothing up there when I've checked, probably because everyone is playing all those other new games. >.>Posted in: News
Grats to anyone who gets in, enjoy it! -

Jaelzadeon posted a message on Wiki DigestNice stuff! Just remember that with the "fixed" areas only the borders are fixed - all the stuff in the middle of the map is completely random so it won't always look the same (even the pathway through Weeping Hollow changes shape).Posted in: News

As for the impale change. I'm thinking Blizzard wanted to make melee Demon Hunters viable. With the new Impale, people can run around with 1-hander + shield and not have a bunch of skills that shoot arrows from nowhere.
Not a change a lot of "diehard" fans will be pleased with, I'm sure; but it definitely makes for some more variety.
That's actually a very good point, I didn't think of it that way. You can conceal knives on your body so it makes more sense than... firing an arrow from your hand.

Did they say anything about leaving Cauldron of Jordan out this time, did I miss it? It doesn't make any difference to me really, I was just curious why they left it out this time around.
I didn't get it either and I've been clearing every single nook and cranny of all the maps.
Before the patch, you would get it after you went with Leah to the hidden cellar in Adria's house, on your first character, and every character after that, as soon as you see the Blacksmith he'd just give it to you, telling you that you're missing something very important. Which I also thought was strange to begin with. -

New skill swaping system is awful.
Each time you level up and get a new skill, you have to go back to town or find an altar to select the new skill.
The previous system was perfect, entertaining and fast paced, like the rest of the game is.
Thank you very much, whiners!
I don't have much of a problem with it, it's a bit annoying at the start of the game. The worst part of it by far is that when you unlock a new skill you can't even view what it does (or view any of the skills you aren't currently using) until you find an altar.
It actually reminds me of being in WoW and having to visit a trainer to train new abilities. *cough* -

Is this the big change Blizz was talking about/working on for the DH's resource system? Or just part of it?
Official Blizzard Quote:
Demon Hunter
Active Skills
Resource management for the Demon Hunter has been reworked significantly. Skills for the class now fall into the three categories: Hatred Generators, Hatred Spenders, and Discipline Spenders.
Far as I know, that's the big change. Hatred regenerates a bit slower now on it's own, but many of your skills generate hatred, so you switch between using your big spenders and generators now.
Or just spam Elemental arrow. -

how's that different from fan of knives? which btw has been uber pimped to 450% wep dam oO.Quote from Jaelzadeon

Dammit they changed the impale? I don't even have the beta yet but I had a master archer character planned...and now my core skill is not a bow shot
That's exactly how I feel about it! I loved the ability before, now it just seems awkward. Pew pew pew with the bow, then chuck a knife! Wait, what?
yah i liked impale better before too, looked and sounded cool. dunno what the knife looks like now...
some of these changes are weird though, and arnt some of the *new* passives...old? transendence for monk has been there from the start if i remember correctly...nerves of steel for barb too.
I think the passives are just new for the lower levels. They switched around what passives you get at lower levels for the Demon Hunter as well.
Fan of Knives is more of a melee ability, and I try to stay out of melee as much as I can (it's range is 10 yards), but to me it makes sense as a melee ability. Impale is just weird to me because you're shooting, than suddenly you stop and chuck a knife. I would compare it more to grenades, which originally I didn't care for, but after playing around with them a bit I loved using them (especially to blow up barrels >.>). Impale has grown on me, the ability itself and how it looks is pretty badass, but it seems like it would fit in more if it were a shot.
On a side note, Elemental Arrow is awesome! -

I can see the Arcane mobs being pretty easy on ranged characters, but when you're a melee and 4 orbs suddenly surround you while they all go in different directions, trapping you inside, it's brutal
Also found the mortar mobs, GIANT blobs of pink squares popping out!
I think they thought there wasn't enough pink in the beta. I found pink pants.

Arcane Enchanted seems to be even worse now... lol
Instead of Hydra's they now toss an Orb at a random location which then spins around randomly with a long arcane line damaging you if you get hit, was pretty brutal - wish i captured a screenshot when I could.
I actually like the change, but I've just run into them on a ranged class and it was easy enough to avoid them this time (not sure if being melee would make a difference?). The way they were before I'd always nearly die and had to run around and LoS the stuff until the hydras despawned. Plus the glowy orb with lazers looks cool.
Oh, and has anyone else ran into Mortar enchanted mobs yet? I came across one and the graphic for the spell is so messed up and awesome.
Bright pink squares ftw! -

Jaelzadeon, you hover over the banner itself and click it, it'll bring up the banner options.
Thanks! Didn't even think of that. Was too busy looking for a button. -

I hope a mod says yes or no (hopefully yes) soon!

I think in the beta I had force move on D... Skill tree was S, and I think my map was on A (map was also on a mouse button but the button is finicky and doesn't always work). I don't use 1 - 4 as abilities, because I bind those all to my mouse, so I use QWEASD keys to bind most of the stuff I need. I found it worked nicely in the beta.

I'm glad these are finally there, makes browsing the forums much easier! I also like that it's more than just read and unread.

I think the hardest part of it for me will be avoiding my friends/the internet until I've completed a normal play through, so parts of the game aren't spoiled for me.

I'm also wondering about the Infraction thing as well. I'm guessing it's for warnings if we've done something stupid on the forums.

Nice screenshots for sure. It's really getting me excited to get the game and see all these gorgeous cinematics! I can't wait! /squee
