    posted a message on Max CDR possible?
    There is an easier way to calculate CDR. If you have 10% CDR just multiply 1 by .9. So if you have a 10% and an 8% you would get: 1 * .9 * .92 which is0.828 so you have 82.8% of your CD or 17.2% CDR.

    posted a message on Crusader Help and Critique thread. - Post Gear/Build queries here.
    I'd say my build is pretty good for FotH heaven's tempest build. You can change a few things around depending on your gear.

    If anyone has any comments on my crusader it would be appreciated. I'm still trying to get my 6 set Akkhan.

    Dissent is good. Blizzard might be making a mistake with the demon hunter change and that is the only way to tell them.

    posted a message on advice to get me to T6
    The only immediate thing I can see is that you are using Blessed Hammer. Fist of the Heavens stacks fire starter a lot better which will give you more dps and thus more survivability because you are killing mobs faster.

    You also might want to switch to iron skin or laws of justice instead of laws of valor for more survivability.

    You also should try to shoot for more CDR to get ~100% uptime on akarat's champion. That will help you a ton.

    posted a message on Which image do you like best
    Quote from MonkManiac
    Did you use a reflection shield? Since some are a bit over kill on the facial lighting. And on some you even created a flare with it :/ also you never mentioned what kind of job she is applying for so people can't really speak for the situation. On some she might be to playfull which can totally set a wrong impression to it's potential boss:) I upvoted every classy face but with smiling eyes, since it looks inviting.

    the picture you posted here is also one of the best you made (probably that's why it's here wouldn't it?) :) gj
    I agree some of the pictures have a lot of lighting on them. I voted on the ones I liked just to help out.

    I'm pretty sure vitality usually gives more life than % life which means if you are rerolling out of health then % life would be the better option. The defender of westmarch is the better shield here especially when you aren't stuck with what you can reroll.
    718 Vitality provides 57,440 life, meaning if he has 382,933 or more HP (after removing the vit/life % in question) and doesn't have any other life % buffs, the life % is more valuable. So, in this case, you might be right, the vitality may be worth more, since it's unlikely he doesn't have other sources of life % gain.
    It appears that they have % life on their belt. That should give the vitality more value in this case.

    Thanks for doing the math though. It never came to mind. I was just stating from personal experience as I've always found vitality to add more toughness than % life.

    posted a message on Some spaces being omitted
    Sometimes when I create a new post some spaces will be omitted which causes some words to become merged. this is pretty frustrating when this happens as it requires me to edit my post after posting. Is there anything that can be done about this?

    posted a message on What torment?
    I'd say T1 and maybe T2 would probably be the best until you get a bit more gear. After you have strengthened your damage and toughness then I'd move onto higher torments.

    I would recommend a fire crusader build as it is pretty solid. You can also try a holy shotgun build. (I'm a bit biased because I like the fire build a lot)

    Here is my crusader for reference:http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Tehstool-1167/hero/43823043

    They increased legendary set drops from all sources, but they haven't decreased drop rates. You must've just been unlucky.

    posted a message on New community, Rift It All
    I have always disliked how people kept going after the RG was dead (after awhile I have found myself doing it). I wanted to maximize my blood shard acquisition, but it might be better to keep going depending on the concentration of elites/the layout of the rift. Although you can't know that. It might also be to maximize rift keystone fragment use.

    A lot of people do this in public games so it might be better to form a community of good civil people working towards the same goals instead of having someone who doesn't want to clear after completing clearing.

    That is probably a result of the difficulty change. You didn't kill them on torment, you killed them on inferno or whatever.

    posted a message on What to gamble next?
    I currently have the gloves and boots of Akkhan and I'm just wondering what I should gamble next.

    http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Tehstool-1167/hero/43823043

    I was thinking maybe gambling for the chest because keeping my set bonuses would probably be the best course of action. I also think I want to keep captain crimson's set for the CDR just to make sure I have enough CDR to have nearly 100% uptime when I do get the 6 set.
    I just would like someone elses opinion on this. Thanks for your help.

    posted a message on Max CDR possible?
    There is diminishing returns for any amount of CDR as it is multiplicative not additive. You must be adding it up and not multiplying it together. Be mindful though as some CDR effects are weird like a crusader's fervor passive which only gives 14.99% rather than 15% CDR which will impact you calculations ever so slightly.
