    Ooh I like this. Haven't watched the video, but I guess you port in, freeze, port out. Nuke away...

    Sounds really fun.

    posted a message on PTR: Treasure Goblins Suggestion.

    Yeah, I have already found 4 legendaries on the ptr (new character), so a 5 percent chance to find a legendary off a goblin that doesn't spawn very often? A bit underwhelming.

    I say, these goblins just drop a legendary when you find and kill them. They are a bit tougher to kill, so you may mess it up if you are at the edge of your difficulty envelope.

    posted a message on Vanilla needs atleast a few RoS features
    As far as I understand, master difficulty (available on new vanilla and PTR) is supposed to be MP10 - so there is no loss of difficulty. Akso, the bounties/rifts are not the new gearing system, playing is: I started a new barb on the PTR, found two legionaries before end of a1.

    I am still not happy about the stupid legendary being Account bound....

    I believe you can trade them within 2 hours of them dropping with people who were in your party at the time it dropped.

    I don't agree with the OP that clearing speed beats all. I often log drops/hour and legendaries/hour for my runs, and even though MP5 takes longer than MP0, I get like 3-4x more rare drops and legendaries per hour.

    MP0 magic find cap: 375 (with NV5)
    MP5 magic find cap: 500 (with NV5)

    Even if you have the exact same clearing speed (unlikely, but let's give you the benefit of the doubt), mathematics say it's virtually impossible to get 3-4x more legendaries on MP5. You may have had a very lucky sample, but in the long run your "3-4x more" claim is an exaggeration. If it was true, by the way, there wouldn't be any need to fix rewards at higher MP levels.

    I don't know who you are, but if you keep telling us things like this, I will find you, and I will give you a high five. Nice!

    posted a message on Conflagration
    Hey Fellow Fans

    I had a question about conflagration. I am currently using a wand with + fire damage on it. Does that mean that any mob I damage (with any spell) receives 10% more damage? Or are only fire skills going to give me this effect (like fire bolts or meteor or unruned hydra). Thanks!

    Hey Man

    Well, I am only a casual gamer, but as far as I can tell my gear is worse than yours. I am able to farm MP3, with deaths only to horrid affixes like mortar and fast/firechains. Been playing on MP2 lately with little trouble. Things take a while to kill, but they do die, before me. So I can agree that it is probably your build which is hurting you, and that your gear is good enough for MP1 (or even 3).

    Should reset/swap skills reset valor?
    Recently there was a vote, it was about "Should Valor reset if you change/swap skills." I believe there was more No then Yes. In my opinion you should not be punished if you reset your skills as this is a way to promote build diversity and its the main reason why you even get loot. This should be discussed more as this could very well happen.

    Terrible, terrible, terrible idea.

    This idea = rearrange your skills for every tough fight or else you're gimping yourself. Horrible game design.

    I think there is some merit in the idea, but maybe with some modification. The idea behind 5 stacks was to make you stick with your build. But maybe some compromise can be had. For instance, one of the following 3 penalties for sawpping ONE skill (penalty is imposed everytime you swap).

    1: Drop 1 stack of NV per skill change. This has a problem though, if you change one skill to a defensive one, you go to 4 stacks, kill the pack and are back to five. You might as well have just skipped the pack.
    2: Give you 1 free skill change every X (10 minutes, or X elite kills etc)
    3: My favourite: Let every skill change subtract X (5) minutes from your NV cooldown. 5 minutes means that a complete switch out always drops NV, but just one skill only gives a small overcomeable penalty.

    Another idea is to impose no (or smaller versions of above) penalties for changing only the active rune on a skill.

    I agree, some build flexibility (not diversity) is required with the possibility of super bad affix pack rolls.

    Oh, and PvP of course. And free legendaries if your battletag starts with an F.

    posted a message on MP3 A1 or MP1 A3.
    Definately Mp3 act 1. But any MP makes the game equally difficult in all acts, and makes the drops the same. So if you can do MP3 in act 1, you should be able to handle MP3 act 3, theoretically.
