The monkey is never going to go.

There is nothing to debate

70 > 60

/debate

the only REAL debate is why Blizzard continues to make game changes based off incorrect information/feedback from players.

There is literally 0 people in this thread who have a clue about what they are talking about.

People who spend their times on forums regardless of which forum seem to share this issue.

Blizzard made a decision to effectively remove enchanting from the game outside of ROS items.

This is not the issue.

The issue is that they made this decision based off incorrect information/feedback.

Something they've made a habit of doing over and over again due to the strong vocal feedback of a small group of players who do not play this game at all, actually let me rephrase that, people who have no understanding of this game.

If you actually played the ROS beta and actually took the time to understand the itemization you would understand that 60 items do all get replaced and have little value but they allow players to easily transition past the meaningless difficulties (Under T1), which in my eyes isn't a bad thing considering it will be a small % of players who took the time and effort to progress in preparation of ROS.

This was a design feature they have been promising us all along, similar to how they promised so many features that were never implemented into this game (looking for threads like this will edit in later).

You guys can cry and troll at me all you want, at the end of the day, nearly every single person that posts on this thread are looking from the outside and coming to conclusions with incomplete information, blizzard included.

Do you guys even think for a second if you were someone who has been playing this game all this time then a bunch of new players who don't even play this game comes back and say I'm so glad all your gear and progression is useless TROLOL.

I just don't understand people like this, there is a simple solution that allows everyone who enjoys the game to do so. Why do you really care that someone has an advantage over you in ROS? It's well deserved if someone put 1000s of hours into their character and you have not.

Why would you want a core base of players who has kept this title going and improved the meta of how this game is approached so that all players enjoy it better to be literally abused where the sun don't shine. Why is there even hate towards people who spend time playing D3 in the first place? So once you guys start playing the game and when this happens to you, I guess you should all stfu and stop crying too with the logic you guys all seem to share.

At the end of the day the only people who truly lose are your so-called "casual" players who don't keep up to date religiously on fansites or bnet forums. People who are only paying attention to blizz updates and are late to this key information change.

I personally find it very amusing that this announcement wasn't made on the battle.net front page for D3 so that as many players as possible saw this IMPORTANT information.

Why post this game-changing update on a 2 week old thread where only ROS feedback players can post, and on top of that I think by this point 90%+ of the beta testers don't even post there because of all the clutter in the forums.

Jealousy and envy only get you so far in life gentlemen, another pro tip.

Your welcome

I got my second perma-ban from forums so moving the discussion over here.

So I'm really confused where they got their feedback from that allowed them to come to this conclusion that 60 items are competitive with 70 items, this is simply.

FALSE

For those of you who are going to respond with RIP RMAH CC WARRIORS, let me remind you that this affects everyone that has been farmed through the demonic essence system as well.

Basically this means that 99% of items found in D3V, depending on when 2.0.1 comes out ofc, is useless in the upcoming expansion.

but the remainder items can still be enchanted, so they haven't really "changed" anything.

Thoughts?

Streaming now and discussing, for those who want to join the chat, http://www.twitch.tv/mannercookie/

Trolls, you will get banned quickly, don't bother.

Enjoy!

I've asked both Euro and Jim to participate in this thread here, so feel free to post comments and questions for them.

Hi Guys,

I've been focusing on making more content for Youtube this month and made a series of "shorter" videos with some of my thoughts/feedback about the current game. Most of these are highlights of my stream where I took the time to explain some of the things I have been testing/tested.

Will be updating this page regularly.

Cheers,

ROS Difficulties (Current META of the Beta)

Hi guys,

I haven't released any crusader content yet but I know a lot of you are looking for some.

Here's somethings I can share for now, more will be added as the beta progresses.

This is the current build I'm using in the beta.

Here is also a short highlight of it's gameplay

There are also severals hours of footage of me testing the crusader throughout my twitch highlights for those who want to see more.

Will try to make formatted material for this class, but I believe a lot of it's core items aren't in the game yet.

@overneathe

srry about the title, and thanks for not deleting the good discussion we got going here.

@rest

I think everyone makes a lot of good points both for PRO and CON.

I would literate everything I talked about while on stream today in regards to the case for PRO BOA and PRO FREE TRADE, but trying to fix my site up proper.

Here is a petition and voting I started on my site (got banned from bnet so made my own site lol)

http://mannercookie.com/vote-and-petition.html

vote has been getting attacked by some PRO BOA supporters early on because the %s were heavily skewed for free trade, but overall it shows a distinct difference in opinion in the community at an almost even level.

similar poll have been floating around with similar results.

Still early to really say that the community favors one or the other, but I think it's safe to say that the community is divided on the subject and that a solution that caters to both groups of players must be integrated into ROS to truly keep everyone happy.

LADDER(BOA) AND FREE TRADE(NO BOA)

perhaps this?

I posted free trade or riot, the first thread had a nice discussion going then got deleted.

so me and few people from twitch started a riot of threads, and a good discussion went for 4 pages on my second thread before I was banned for 1 month lol.

Enjoy!

Thanks for the video. Some of those items look really nice, though I wonder if Blizzard can manage to make different items for the same slot desirable. I can't imagine wearing any other belt (until I see that), which of course creates the problem of first obtaining this belt on your own.

Also, itemization aside from those special properties looks pretty boring. Every beta guy I see has monstrous values of mainstat, vit and all res on every item.

Good sharing OP, thanks for that.

1 Questions: The 2 trifectal legendary rings are fixed affix? or you got luck and farmed + enchant it?

Thanks, happy new year
