I think we should delete D3Helper threads for now, it's also what's happening elsewhere and we don't want to become the new home for those kind of ugly discussions. Turbohud we should just allow, I think most people agree for now that unless Blizzard finally starts acting on it, it even seems like it's okay to use - many streamers have started admitting using it recently including Gabynator; people post "proof" on the forums of them using it and don't get banned or sanctioned in any way, and threads on the official forums are not being touched no matter how stupid they are. And for bots we take the obvious measures - delete links, maybe moderate the names (though honestly everyone knows they're called RosBot and Demonbuddy), and otherwise just make sure it stays civilized.

Pointing out a typo while using another typo.... internet justice at it's finest.
"What is a moob". Not "That is a moob".
.....and he meant "mob", obviously. Your name even has the word "spell" in it.
What a weird series of events.
If you're gonna correct someone atleast make sure you yourself aren't making the same mistake.
Correct use is "its".
It's = It is
If you're gonna correct someone for correcting someone, AT LEAST spell "at least" correctly.
This is getting downright hilarious.
This is why I hate grammar cops. We're on a forum, and IT'S (<<<proper conjunction?) common for people to make mistakes and not notice. I hated to point out the guy above making a mistake, but he was asking for it.
Please understand, I'm hoping we all keep our sense of humor about this. Is my post correct? I better proofread it.
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Pretty sure you meant going to instead of gonna.
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa omg L2types

alpaka posted a message on RG Spawn LocationPosted in: Diablo III General Discussionprogress orbs definitely dont add much to game play, especially multiple orbs instead of just one orb, like you were saying. and hopefully there is a fix on that rg spawn. that is not the only one i have gotten recently, but definitely the worst one as of late.

BlacKcuD posted a message on Extreme long Queue time PTRPosted in: Diablo III General DiscussionQuote from Sommarballe»
Hi first of all i want to say i was actually able to log in and play the ptr as soon it went live i played for like 4 hours before i made the misstake to leave the game to change to another character. ive been tried to logg in constant since that.
its impossible to even get into the server. sad i really wanted to (Test & breiefe blizz about their new patch) but now iam not able to give much feed back on the PTR.
but for the 4 hours i played i enjoyed it alot, the new zones was amazingly good, very detailed nice and smooth graphic.
i love all the new implements in this patch so far, except for the fact that the server seems to be super tiny.
thanks over & out and sorry for my bad spelling =^_^=
Reported. I hope the mods will do something about this flood of PTR-QQ. It helps nobody. You are currently just producing spam which blocks everything else. Also you showed your inability to see if there are already posts about it. Guess what: half the front page is posts about exactly that. Please do not do that again. It is just so superfluous.

xlxShadyxlx posted a message on Really blizz, the buff again...Posted in: Diablo III General DiscussionThe PTR is not meant to be fun. It's meant for testing. If Blizzard feels they need to test things with the buff on, they can. If you don't want to play with the buff, don't play the PTR.

I have to agree. I kinda want to "hissss" at my own post. I was only meaning to tell him, the only way to ensure people get everything they want is via trading, but I didn't mean to make it sound like I actually support such a thing.
Poorly written by me. Sorry.
Hissssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!

Question; Do you think the only point of Diablo 3 is placing on the leaderboards?
1
Not to sound snarky, but this is Diablo. It's supposed to get out of hand with ridiculous power. One of my pet peeves is hearing people constantly pine for more balance just due to the presence of leaderboards, but Diablo has never been about balance. Rather, it has always been grossly strong items an obscene, vulgar display of power.

BTW: You seemed to get upset that some people (myself included) got the impression you don't like Diablo 3. Have you actually read the title of your own thread?

You made a comment that suggested the current state of the game is angled toward "casuals". A suggestion that could be received as an insult. It is good that your clarified your position.
Of course it's still an item hunt. A Lion's Claw is just a Lion's Claw until you grind out an ancient version with beautiful rolls. There are many aspects which still present hardened item grinders like myself with a focus. To be clear myself; I have always advocated for extreme rarity with certain items, I want those White Whales.
I have been pleasantly surprised by how rare some items still can be, and rarer still..... great rolls in Ancient form.

There's a lot more to this game than simply dropping legendary items. Getting these items is only part of the process. How you build, how you mix and match, how you cube.... that is the business end of itemization in D3 patch 2.3.
Simply getting a 6 piece set together isn't going to get you anywhere special. It's what you do with it that counts.
One can be a cynic and think all of these changes were meant to cater to casual players. Or one could look deeper still and see that Diablo 3 is almost rebellious in it's freedom to build without having to purchase your items with real cash. The irony here is; Many of the people I've seen calling modern D3's itemization feeding frenzy as a call to casuals, are the same people who bought their way to success in earlier versions of D3 (AH's) and all throughout D2.
So we can ask; Is it more "casual" to buy your items with real cash, or to have easier access to them by actually playing the game?
The developers of Diablo 3 seemed to have flipped a unique switch within the ARPG genre by allowing players easier access to the items they need for builds without the insidious presence of 3rd party handlings. If you think simply cubing up a Witching Hour has elevated you to the top of Mount Fuck All, you are sorely mistaken, sir.
Beyond simple acquisition of desired items must come the knowledge in how to properly use it; or; When to use something else to pump massive amounts of NON-SHEET dps and toughness from a build using items some people disregard due to the lack of an orange (legendary) property (String of Ears/Eye of Etlich etc).
For your Diablo 3 enjoyment, might I suggest a beverage change for yourself? Switch from Haterade to refreshing Kool Aid. Much better to quench your thirst.

HC comes with it's own built in end game, exclusive to that mode. Death. ...or....avoiding death. Permanent death. Your character isn't rolling over to SC like in PoE, this is real HC.
HC has rewarded me endlessly. It saved D3 for me when the game was at it's lowest points early on. Now that D3 is a legit top-shelf ARPG (IMO), I am bound to HC mode. I simply couldn't enjoy the game without it.
Objectively speaking; HC adds an aspect to the game that it currently doesn't have outside of HC. It makes it possible for you to lose. It's a game, you should be able to lose. There is no PvP, so if you want to risk loss, hardcore is for you.

Please keep the conversation about the dynamics of support characters and NOT about unfounded accusations and personal remarks.
Thank you.

Thing is, I'm pushing HC Grifts (currently ranked solo #8) and once you get over tier 50-ish, those white mobs stand you up and waste your time. In 2.2, the elites weren't the problem, it was the RG. There's been paradigm shift now, as less onus has been put on the Grift Guardian's health.
Look at the solo boards. That tells you much. Most of the Monks above me aren't using Furnace as a passive, and there's a reason why. I have no other better option than to cube Furnace, but what's happening to me is I hit a hard wall after clearing a 54 in HC. I simply cannot keep up with the timer at tier 55 because my weapon passive is a Furnace.
