Thanks for replying! I didn't think I was getting any views, let alone replies.

I am a bit of a purist; I don't play more than 1 toon. I've tried them all and always came back to monk.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have poked around a bit but didn't find anything conclusive. I'll continue to experiment on my own and see what I come up with.

I did pick a 4th passive. I just went with Sixth Sense for the DR. I'm up to about 15m Toughness in-game, but I don't know if the Armory will reflect that (is it glitchy?).

Hello, fellow monks.

I have found a build that I am most pleased with. It matches my play style perfectly and I don't see myself switching.

However...

I am looking for suggestions on which runes/passives to switch to maximize damage for this build.

I sometimes wonder about the "100%" too. I know it's bad luck, but I haven't found much of anything lately. Oh well...

So dual-wielding is ideal for WW?

This is what I have:

(Yeah, I know it's crappy gear. I just hit 70 and have bad luck!)

Drop the spin to win skill and put something else on your right click.

Because WW is the iconic Barbarian ability. We're sick of making sacrifices, damn it.

They're just angry paladins.

Finish D2, give your paladin PTSD and don't clean up his armor.

Voila!

(You're welcome.)

I agree with him about the annoyance, but they should have given us a one-time option to transfer, rather than attack offline play by itself. Back then, I didn't have broadband, so I had to balance dial-up bandwidth between the ever-so-flimsy Battle.net. Disconnects were frequent and completely random. Today, broadband is so common that I can't imagine playing offline. There's no reason not to have it (power outages, bad weather, etc), but I would like the choice.

I respect your opinions, but I disagree. I don't care if you like Warcraft, play Warcraft, have played Warcraft or whatever, but almost any gamer worth his salt knows who Thrall is. Everyone knows who Diablo is. It's not just the physical appearance either; they're well-established characters with well-established backstories.

I, personally, love the Diablo and Warcraft lore, so I get excited about new expansions because of the new roads for our characters to take. I don't see an ending to ANY Blizzard game. Instead, I see just another locked door waiting to be opened.

Nice find!

I wish this game actually felt like a sequel to Diablo II instead of its own thing. I just feel like Jay wanted a "clean slate" after the fallout of Blizzard North's collapse. It's a slap in the face to all of the fans and I still have bad blood about it. I know it's their game, but Blizzard lore is legendary in itself.

Anyway, I am hoping the next expansion (i.e. after Reaper) will give us the ability to respec into different fighting modes or something. Maybe the Demon Hunter could become a melee Assassin? Maybe the Monk could exchange some of his melee abilities for mind-based ranged attacks? Maybe the Barbarian could be more Spartan (e.g. spear/ranged attacks with shield and limited melee)? Perhaps the wizard could buff others with arcane magic, or have the ability to wear magical armor to defend herself in melee range (e.g. Arcane Warrior in Dragon Age)? Just an idea.

If you need any reason other than "because it's fun", you're taking it too seriously.

On controllers: Meh. On the cosplay: Nice boobs! On the wizard video: Thanks for everything, Jaetch!

You shouldn't need more than a couple million (~5m) theoretically, but since the AH is closing down, the prices are probably ridiculous.

Most Legendaries are garbage. Everyone knows this. Where's the surprise?

Who is that extra large demon?

Hmm... Taphomet?

Love how it looks like ancient manuscript.
