Well yeah.. in your sense i do not farm.. like i said i HAVE TO move.. i considered farm as being able to gather 5 stacks and kill siege in a playing style that is fun for me and does not take like 3 hours (ranges from 30 to 60 mins usually)..
just standing there, dully hitting mobs is not even what i want.. if moving out of void zones etc is required to clear the game, thats cool - but right no thats not the issue. melee in this game is broken.. plain and simple..
and to all the fanboys defending melee right now: gathering 50% block and hit like a girl is not what i consider fun..
Thank you for replying.
Can you post an image of you're gear or just write down you're stats on here? It would be appreciated.
And yes, melee is quite broken at the moment.. or rather some of the mobs are quite overtuned. I guess skipping is a must. I like killing everything but I guess that's not really possible, well it might be possible ofcourse but not right now in the gear i'm wearing.
Stats at the moment:
10500 armor
12500 dps
980 physical resist, the rest is around 990/1000.
No life on hit
16% chance to block
48900 hp. I think my gear is allright. I steamroll act 2 without any problems whatsoever. Any tip on what to improve for act 3 would be greatly appreciated. I'm currently in the fields doing the quest "War Machines" or whatever it is called, can't remember right now.
PvP balance in rpg's/mmorpg's is close to impossible to do especially if the game is PvE heavy. Resilience was not a bad idea, it was the only way to balance WoW's pvp, atleast a bit. But as said, it's close to impossible to balance a game around PvP when it contains both PvE and PvP. One could downgrade everyones gear/skills when they join the arena match and let skills decide who wins and not gear, but this is close to impossible to do and would take a very long time to balance.
Only certain affixes and certain white mobs with too much burst get nerfed in 1.0.3, which is understandable in my eyes. This means that there will still be a challenge. Which is good.
I think PvP will be mega unbalanced when it releases. I can see the 200-350k dps Demon Hunters and Wizards instakilling people already. When blizzard sees this they will probably downgrade you're gear everytime you enter an arena and let skills decide who wins and not gear... or something along those lines I don't know.
Act 2 is not that bad to be honest, just you wait until you get to act 3. You WILL rage.
D3 may have a few flaws but I still enjoy the game. Overall the quality and feel of the game is very good. There are rarely good PC exclusive games so I think i'm sticking to Diablo 3 for quite some time.
I have 50k HP, 10k armor, 1100 ressist to all. 12.5k DPS with 1000 LOH. I can't do Act III. Yet I did act II using leveling gear.
What spec are you guys using?
Hi.
I'm in the same boat. 10300dps. 1000 resist to all, 10200 armor, 600 loh. 780 dps one hander, 1.50 speed.. if that matters. Low block. There is even white mobs that own me in a few seconds(These bursty mobs will get tuned in patch 1.0.3, but still). Elite packs burst me down in a few seconds.

I see allot of barbs here mentioning that they have act 3 on "farm" by this, do you mean that you can kill every elite pack in act 3 or do you just run to the "hard" boss at the end of the bridge in act III and rinse->repeat? I wouldn't call checkpoint running "Act III on farm", which is what I think 90% of barbs are doing at the moment.
I want to do it legit, I do not want to checkpoint run. But if what you lot say is true, I want to see you're stats so that I know what to aim and look for.
