The annual pass was designed to shore up numbers in between major expansions, when content becomes stale and most hardcore wow players drop off the face off the realm. It was a spectacular success.
So? Its win-win. Blizz keeps subs up, which stops others from considering cancelling their accounts, and keeps the shareholders happy.
In my opinion there will never be any build diversity while playing the inferno content.
everyone who wants to achieve nearly anything will always get the build which is a little
bit better than the rest.
so there are now like 2-3 build per class people are playing with. thats exactly the amount of diversity
we will see regardless of how many patches blizz throws at us.
Totally agree, I was skeptical when Blizz said thousands of builds, because inevitably, people will use the best/most efficient build.
Unless all skills are equal in combination or dps, there will always be a best build.
venom is by far the highest damage hydra due to the poison stacking if you can't get them to stand it long enough, try kiting in a circle around them rather than in a straight line back or forward
Have you actually clicked the link and followed the instructions??
You say it isn't proof they are botting, but they have 24/7 uptimes, not tons of uptime, not logging alot of hours, they have LITERALLY been online 24/7 for 3 months.
24/7 uptime.
They are all 90% in blues.
They are all only upto Hell Act 4 after 3 months.
They are all in GF with as much pickup radius as possible.
Read the OP, follow the instructions, then come back here and justify their elite kills/play time.
Or just fly off the handle and decry everyone as idiots.
Totally agree, cannot emphasise how much money FA:energy will save you and let you stack INT/VIT/MF gear only.
Phoenix if you haven't already you should totally buy a cheap sunkeeper/three hundreth spear to swap in before the mob dies, and a 20% MF shield, they are cheap as. Sweet as MF farm gear btw.
Funny did you see my templar, that is exactly what he uses.
I am way too lazy to do gear swapping, otherwise I definitely would. Really need to upgrade my pants, but can't find a decent upgrade that does not make me lose int or vit. Because everyone was going after AR gear I got so many awesome deals, rings for less than 5 million, gloves for 10 mill (buyout was 100 I think but nobody else bid lol, I sold my old pair after my post for 15 mill). Unfortunately, now more people are building MF gear, so it is harder and harder to get deals.
Agree its a total pain in the a to swap gear, and has cost me a goblin kill once or twice.
MF gear is spiking crazy with the 1.04 announcement, might be a good time to get rid of some normally cheap pieces
Feared/Frozen/Shielded and not enough AR, you get dropped in a second.
I don't see how this changes the situation if you are stacking LoH or LL, either way its a bad situation .
In the case of feared or frozen, or jailed just out of melee range, your spells or aoes that are already up can LL WHILE your CC'd, imo thats the strongest feature of LL.
LoH is best for certain OP skills, like monk's thunderclap, and when you are below a certain dps, in the middle-tier of dps a mix is best, and at top level dps LL pulls ahead.
That's why Bashiok or Jay said ( I forget who ) that this stat would be OP in a few months when everyones DPS started to max out.

Dunno about monk or DH builds but all I see is WW/Sprint Barbs and CM Wiz's. Every now and then I see a snare wiz ( Arc. Orb/Blizz/V.Hydra )
But really 19/20 games thats all I see, WW/S Barb or CM Wiz;s.

You ( and I did ) get free D3.
Where's the downside?

Where as LL is based off ANY damage you do.

WHO GIVES A CRAP about D2. We are talking D3, and Inferno, is already easy.
