Nov 7, 2012RockmanDoom posted a message on Why do you play D3?Same, beer, heavy metal and diablo 3 at the end of the day to unwind. Plus i love gaining DPS, the hunt for items, making that gold, buy/selling in the auction house. Oh, and killing monsters is fun I guess tooPosted in: Diablo III General Discussion

Put in 300M on an item with a current bid of 500K with 24 hours remaining and let it do its thing... No need for cold sweat and panic attacks. If someone pays over 300M, then hot damn.
Bad idea. This would be fine if everyone knew exactly how the system work and play the same game you are playing. However as you can see even in this very thread, a lot of people have no clue how this works, and bidding during the last 5 seconds screws them over.
For example, let's assume your competition is the guy who doesn't understand why his bid is always too low - If you bid early, he'll keep bidding and bidding and increase your bid. If you bid the last 5 seconds he won't have time to do that and you will get the item for cheaper.
So yes, bidding your max early and letting it run would be fine if everyone knew how the system works. However due to people not know how the system works, bidding last 5 seconds can sometimes net a huge profit over bidding early. If it doesn't net you a profit, you still haven't lost nothing over bidding early.
Kripp has a video showing how to bid last 5 seconds. It's good enough to prevent you from needing a bot. Existence of bots in this case does not hurt you because bots are made by people who know how the system works. People who know how the system works will bid the same amount regardless of how you are bidding, and thus you will never be able to take advantage of them regardless of whether or not they use a bot. Bidding last 5 seconds is only there to take advantage of people who don't know how the system works, and for that no bots are needed. -

Is there some kind of lock-up in the Gold auction house? When I bid on a Zunimassa Mask tonight, I expected someone to overbid me, no problem. It's after when I went to bid no matter what I did it says 'bid too low' even though the bid was for the next higher amount listed.
Is there some kind of automated bidder bots who look for cheap items and then somehow manage to lock others out? One time it happened with over a minute left, I could not bid for nothing.
I have good gear, I didn't really care, I just wanted to see if the Voodoo mask was better or worse than my Tal Rasha helm which is real good anyways.
I'm just more curious than anything about what the heck is going on here?

Whoops. Double post. Anyway, look at my previous post.
Voodoo Mask at 50M. I throw in 300M. Mask goes up to 52.5M bid. You see that bid and punch in 60M. Game will tell you it's not enough and push the bid to 55M. Why? Because I already set my max bid to 300M, which you cannot see. So unless you keep dumping in gold until you surpass 300M, that voodoo mask will never be yours. -

Does anyone know if this Monster Power adjustment if it effects Diablo Inferno?
With a group of friends I tried a bunch of times when 1.0.4 first came out (have since upgraded a bit) and could only get as far as the realm of terror.
We beat Azmodan on day #1 of 1.0.4 and it would be nice if I could get the final win, even if it's 'the weenie way' :Thumbs Up:
