    PLUS makes it super easy for the scrubs/idiots who are to retarded/lazy/dumb to do it. WIN


    No one is too retared or dumb to do it. It's a few button clicks. No ones too lazy to do it either.

    The problem is that its an action game, and you shouldn't have to do tedious, clunky, menu driven stuff in middle of action based combat to play effectively.

    Maybe people who can't understand that argument are the "retarded" ones. Or... maybe people like that hope throwing insults arround will cloud the issue and keep people from noticing that the current MF swap mechanics feel cheesy, sloppy, and a bit stupid.

    A logical argument; how did that find it's way to a diablo3 forum?

    I think #2, #3 or #4 would all accomplish the goal.

    I can't understand how people can enjoy gear swapping at the last second to gain MF. I'm compelled to to it but it really takes a lot away from my gameplay experience. Not to mention, it significantly reduces the value of MF on high rolled items.

    I hate having to switch my gear for MF. I hope they add some kind of delay or penalty. I do it, but it's actually hurting my gameplay experience.

    I pulled the trigger on some gloves with:

    +9% IAS
    +8.5% Cirt
    +100 Strenght
    +47 Vitality
    +25 AR
    +50 fire res

    They were listed with a time of 1d12H and a buyout of 3,000,000. I insta purchased. I'm not sure if it's as good as a deal as I though it was at first but I'm still pretty happy.

    I need to get out of the habit of being cheap though, I would probably be better off on just buying something for 20-30mil that I won't have to worry about upgrading in the future.

    I consider dexterity a bonus. I'm never going out of my way to get more of it.

    posted a message on Gloves
    hey guys,

    I recently decided to upgrade my gloves because the ones I currently have don't cut it. I've searching around the auction and I'm not quite sure what the optimal way to go is.

    I've seen some barbarians stack crit chance and damage but it seems to be that attack speed and strenght provide more benefit in terms of damage. Am I mistaken? Is there some hidden benefit that I am missing?

    I think the problem is I don't have any increase crit damage besides my passive. Maybe I should consider removing the amethyst in my weapon and putting an emerald? This would leave me with no life steal though, I'm not sure how effect 300 LOH actually is anyway.

    Thanks,

    I would suggest you use the barbarian DPS spreedsheet posted on the front page recently to see what effects reducing some stats has on your effective life pool. I was looking at changing my string of ears to a better belt but it turned out I was better off with the string (mine is 19%).

    I also used it recently to determine that my gloves are total pieces of junk that need to be replaced... its a really good tool.

    Thats odd. I've been lucky enough to find one after already having purchased one.

    I purchased a 29% for 11mil and sold a 28 for 10mil. Are prices going up? I would think it would be the opposite.

    The block makes it worth about 10 mil IMO

    Damage is a tad low but you should be rolling act 2 with those stats, not sure what you're doing wrong. play around with leap attack/iron impact, you are probably lacking mobility (not to mention is awesome and fun)

    posted a message on So Discouraging
    People want the legendaries and set items to drop more often and you wan't them to be the best items in the game. That's pretty ridiculous.

    Do legendaries need to be upgraded? Yes. I don't think they should all be made BIS items, that takes away from the randomness of the game. I think the drop rate is fine for these items as well, you want them to be rare or they are less valuable.

    I think ideally legendaries and buffed to be useful with unique characteristics but if you find a perfect rare, you should be far better off. Examples of this are things like Lantern and Helm of Command; having a stat on these you can't find them anywhere else makes them very useful but there are certainly better items for those slots...

    posted a message on How do I get more resist?
    Quote from vndragonslayer

    Quote from tanis0

    For a Barb, yeah, it's just going to be tons of resist all along with Warcry: Impunity as far as I know, and maybe a small bit of Int / specific resists if they're mostly "free" on an item. 1000 resist with Impunity, which is a ton by the way and I don't think hardly anyone has that much, is about 667 base. I think that's pretty much the top end of what's possible for a Barbarian as that's an average of about 62 resist all on every slot if you have 500 intelligence. I rerolled a couple of new characters instead of gearing up right now, so I can't speak to what's average though.


    im not even capped on resist. using shitty 18 resist justice lantern

    beefy!
