Meh another loot rant. I don't go a single night of farming without finding at least SOMETHING reasonably good to sell. Cydaea/Azmodan is my bread and butter farm, however I'm extending into Izual/Diablo and I'll see which is better. I am thoroughly enjoying this game, and if you aren't then that's fine too. I don't see the need for these excessive complaining threads.
I also have no idea who told you to farm Act 2, but they should be slapped. Hard.
I'm pretty sure Blizzard has stated numerous times that the AH searching needs to be worked on. I would expect many changes to help the ease of searching to come with 1.03. That said, we definitely need an "add filter" option up to 7 filters, ability to search by DPS, and ability to search by Buyout only. I'm sure there are other things that need to be added, but those are my top needs.
I'll be completely honest. Act 2 is just plain stupid. If you're aiming to progress through it, however (and not just run like a Kenyan through the entire Act), then you should be looking into going full glass cannon. Your "resist" gear is absolutely nowhere near what is needed to successfully utilize the Shadow Power gear/spec. At this point in time for your gear (and assuming your DH is your alt and probably don't want to drop 10mil+ gold on him right now), here are a couple of helping points.
*Act 2 sucks, get through it and don't ever look back.
*Ignore most survival attributes (this includes vitality, % life, resists, etc), at this time you will still pretty much get one-shot by anything with 24k health regardless
*When looking for a bow or xbow, you are not looking for IAS on the weapon itself.
*Use the cookie cutter "blow shit up" spec. Hungering Arrow - Devouring Arrow, Elemental Arrow - Nether Tentacles, Smoke Screen - Lingering Fog, Preparation - Backup Plan, Rain of Vengeance - Stampede/Flying Rain (personal preference), Caltrops - Jagged Spikes (personal preference again), Sharpshooter - Passive, Archery - Passive, Steady Aim - Passive.
*Also if you wish, you can drop Sharpshooter for Tactical Advantage.
If there is any additional or specific mob help I can provide, please feel free to ask.
Love the idea of getting away from Hungering and trying out different specs, however I can't justify giving up shooting offscreen to "preclear" spearmen/casters/inferno diablo shadowclones/etc... because Hungering more or less homes in on anything nearby.
That said, I'll be giving this a shot tonight in a quick Cydaea/Azmodan clear.
