miles_dryden posted a message on Datamining: Stat Caps Removed, and More; BlizzCon Store Online Sale Now Open, Blue Posts, Remember When...?I'm kind of split on the whole "Torment" thing. There really isn't enough information right now to make any conclusions, but working on the assumption that it is in fact a new format for difficulty modes and not just a new name related to MP, my gut reaction is "ugh". Normal > Nightmare > Hell is a Diablo tradition and I'd hate to see that go away. Still, if it improves the game flow or whatever, then I guess I can't complain.Posted in: News

As expected ... no trading replacement.
Everything will succeed or fail with this.
increased drop rates, problem solved.
This guy gets it.
On the contrary. No structured in game trading = dead in 2 weeks like console play.
This is soon 2014, not 1997 ...
You assume that itemization in PC loot 2.0 will be the same as itemization in console. We pretty much already know this isn't the case. Console is designed around short term play and more immediate satisfaction, where the PC game is intended to be a more long-term loot hunt and paragon grind. -

miles_dryden posted a message on Datamining: Stat Caps Removed, and More; BlizzCon Store Online Sale Now Open, Blue Posts, Remember When...?Posted in: NewsThe stat caps for Critical Hit Chance, Critical Hit Damage and Attack Speed have been removed from the datamined files. The Lifesteal change is new though, so it remains. The other stats like Magic Find have not been touched.
Can't say I'm too mad (or surprised) about this. Diminishing returns is a much better approach than hard caps. With hard caps, everything becomes about 'hitting the cap' and we are back to where we started. -

"This polearm was crafted by the finest ungulate smiths — its blade fired in the Hellforge, quenched in the rancid milk of the Cow King, and enchanted by that selfsame monarch. In addition to its significant martial benefits, the Bovine Bardiche may also summon forth a veritable army of cows to fight on its wielder’s behalf."
The Cow King has milk? From where??
It's not really milk. -

But yeah, allowing Life Steal% to be more of a low level thing, and Life on Hit to be a high level thing, dare I say, actually is pretty genius. For one thing, it means an affix doesn't have to be removed entirely from the game. But with level 60 items already being potent, and level 70 items projected to be even more potent, leaving Life Steal% as it is will mean it will be an even more OP and game-breaking mechanic. Granted, Life on Hit may not be too effective for characters with 70k+ Life (my Monk has 62k), if you want a lot of it, it's not impossible to get...but you have to work at getting a lot of it, and even when you have a lot of it, it still won't guarantee you invincibility...and since Life on Hit doesn't scale with damage, it won't be easy to abuse, and have to be tag-teamed with Life Regen, health globes, and other forms of restoration.
As a side note...I remember friends giving me tips on end-game in D2, and the first thing they always said, was Life Leech and Mana Leech. Sucks that it repeated in D3, but really happy the devs are taking that on directly and changing and evolving it going forward.
It seems to me that LoH is much more useful than LS at low levels simply because of the way those 2 affixes scale. My suspicion is that after 2.0, LS simply will not roll on items at all anymore, nor be available for enchanting. This new mechanic is simply to make current items with LS fade out, without being completely useless on patch-day. -

Lastly, i don't think the current MP curve difficulty will stay in RoS after gameplay changes, i suspect some tweaks for it.
Absolutely. Vanilla Inferno was bad enough, can you imagine trying MP10 without the AH? I mean, I'm all for having longterm goals, but that would be insane. -

- *Life Steal is less effective when you are higher level.
- *At level 60, Life Steal gains a 0.10x multiplier.
- *At level 70, Life Steal no longer functions.

Wow, I thought the D2 purists died out a long time ago. Tell me, does the jerkass attitude come packaged with the rose-tinted glasses, or is that a separate purchase?

"I think the answer is yes, if I did not hear it wrong, Josh said on the Gamescom presentation.
Correct. Sockets are a possible affix that can be re-rolled onto an item (at least currently)."

Agreed, but am I the only one who is just excited to see the character return? I want to know more about Miriam.

There's no question that social options could use improvement. Hopefully Loot Runs and Nephalem Trials will help bring people together more. But until we get that or some type of lobby system, everyone will just keep rushing through the quests or playing solo.

Blizzcon always has a way of getting people excited again, if only temporarily. He'll come back. They always do...

I very much doubt they will do this, since the whole point of enchanting is to give people a new way to get good items from drops, WITHOUT needing to resort to the AH. In other words, you aren't supposed to scan the AH to look for something to get enchanted; you're supposed to enchant stuff you find to make it better, so that you don't have to go to the AH in the first place.
That said, I'm all for UI and search improvements for the AH, especially for when I'm trying to figure out how much I can sell something for. "Search for similar items" really doesn't cut it.

Personally, I think they should put the Mystic back in Act 1 where she belongs so everyone can use her, but that's just me.

Front page, dude. Sockets are in.

Presumably, the mystic will be introduced in Act 5, so you have to actually buy the xpack to use enchanting/transmog. I don't see how they could keep diamonds out of the hands of vanilla players unless even the AH is separated into xpack/non-xpack versions.
