I really hope it wasn't an intentionally design change. I have a somewhat different build for farming gear. But when I'm trying to get achievements, especially ones like Wheel of Misfortune, I want to be able to zip through the area and get right to it. So why wouldn't I stack as much movement speed gear and skills as possible? While I think that Tailwind isn't operating properly, Paragon Points in Movement Speed do not increase your movement speed beyond 35% as well, so I'm still suspicious of some cap, either you can only gain so much from Paragon Points in movement speed or you can only gain so much from skills.

There's definitely been a couple posts (I could only find 3) and I think only one of them was actually in the Bug forums for the PTR. And since 2.0.1. went live, this post is now in the General Discussion forum and is probably buried.

Tempest Rush Problem
One person mentions that it seems like the rune justsets your run speed to 25%. Notincreases it by 25%. But I don't think that's happening either. When I have 35% increased movement speed and I activate Tempest Rush, I move around at the same speed as if I was just moving with left-click. I'll do more testing tonight and actually post on the forums about it. That thread wasn't very descriptive. I might even record it with FRAPS and put it up on Youtube.

I'm unsure of how Movement Speed works in 2.0.1. Is there an actual overall cap on it, now? Not just like a hard cap from gear but just a flat cap?

Here's my situation. Prior to 2.0.1., I was trying to get an achievement (shut up, I like achievement hunting) and to do so quickly and efficiently, I was using major spirit regeneration and movement speed boosting skills. My passives were Exalted Soul, Chant of Resonance, and Fleet Footed. I also have a decent Inna's Radiance with 1.73 sp/s on it, and the Inna's 3 piece bonus of 33 sp/s regen. (I have a total of 4 pieces for Inna). With a pretty decent spirit regeneration rate, I could sustain Tempest Rush with Tailwind for a very long time. Long enough to run from the Ancient Path waypoint in Act II, through the Desolate Sands area trying to find the Wheel of Misfortune. I need one more event to finish off this stupid achievement ...

My boots and pants each have +12% movement speed on them. So there's 24% right away. Then Fleet Footed gives me another 10%. So I'm up to 34% already. When I put points into Movement Speed through paragon points, I can only get it to 35%. And if I do that, Tempest Rush with Tailwind doesn't do jack. I run at the same speed while using Tempest Rush with Tailwind as I do while just simply moving via left-click.

Edit: I forgot to mention that, prior to 2.0.1., I could definitely tell I moved faster with Tailwind. I don't know the exact percentage it bumped me up to, but it definitely worked.

If I remove Fleet Footed and keep my character window up while using Tempest Rush, my movement speed jumps up to 35% from 25% (keeping the 1% I added via Paragon points). But Tailwind is supposed to give a 25% bonus, so it's obviously capping my movement speed at 35% if the bonus comes from Paragon Points or Tempest Rush. I tried putting more points into movement speed via paragon points, but it won't go above 35%.

Did I miss something in the patch notes about movement speed? I know a lot of skills had their movement speed bonuses changed (or removed or added), but I didn't think movement speed itself was altered. Any info on this?

Edit 2: I couldn't find much around here about this, and nothing about movement speed on the Blizzard forums either.
Edit 3: I finally guessed that Tempest Rush - Tailwind might be bugged and searched the Blizz forums for info on it. No blue posts, no confirmation of the issue, but there are about 3 threads where the pre- and post-patch difference has been noted.

Disregard my post, I thought you were talking about Paragon thing ...

No.
More.
Auction House.

Everything surrounding loot improvements has me completely stoked for this expansion. I was absolutely not going to buy it, but when they announced that the Auction House was going bye-bye, I was sold, immediately.

I received an email last night and they started the shipping process last night; this morning the box arrived in St. Paul and is now set to "Out for Delivery" in Eagan. I also wish I could find the UPS truck and intercept it.

Seems pretty timely to me but I was guaranteed release date delivery because I still have an active Amazon Prime account. Not sure if that makes a difference or not.

What an excellent day for an exorcism ...

These were both probably done already but I don't care, this is too much fun.

Oh and btw.. isn't this "Caption this screenshot" not "Photoshop meme's into this screenshot"?


Just sayin'

Captioning is a meme in and of itself?

Console game-play will go like this ...

(Also, i have no idea where the gallery is, im pretty dumb, but i looked for a while, couldn't find it)

Slightly noobish here too, also couldn't find how to upload to the gallery, but the details on the contest said other hosting sights were okay.

I've been laughing for the last hour reading new entries.

Wrong class ...
