3.8 Million DPS Monk
Forum member invis has managed to kill Azmodan in 36.5 second on his Monk. While there are certainly some faster kills out there this seems to be one of the fastest Monk kills. Invis has a Twitch channel that you can visit by clicking on this link where he shows his playstyle and answers lots of questions. You can also check out his thread on our forums located here.

Hi there,
We've had a report of this happening before, and it does seem that over time it should resolve itself, but in the meantime, can you try resetting or changing the password on your account, then see if that lets you post on the US forums?
Resetting/changing the password forces all your account related data to refresh, so hopefully that should help.
Let us know if it doesn't. (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)

Anúna Perform Music From Diablo 3
Irish choir Anúna has gotten in touch with Diablo 3 composer Russell Brower and performed this incredible concert.
Not saying that it isn't a problem, but the whole "legendaries aren't the best items" philosophy that Blizzard initially took was to counter exactly this. But everyone knows how that turned out.
Fuck oath. 6 months after release and its still missing a major part of the game play (PvP anyone?).
Not to mention they're gonna need a ladder system with resets to get players back when pvp comes out.. its quite clear blizzard are looking at sales figures on paper to determine if a game is successful or not these days... real shame, quality slowly goin out the door for quantity
Also WTF is up with people complaining that they are working on an expansion?! I'll bet you complain when there's a sunrise too, because it's too bright, ffs.
Not gonna buy anything from this Jay Wilson team. Bring Blizzard North folks back to diablo to make it as it should be.
Blizzard Dota, now named Blizzard all stars for sc2. Been talked about for a while
a lot has changed since this however
Meh idk I like it. The sun = D3 exp pack, and it being too bright is people finding something to complain about.
All that's left for D3 atm is pvp and maybe a couple tweaks, so it makes perfect sense that they are already working on an expansion. ALAS, people must complain, becuase this is the internets.
I like this game and spend 99% of my gaming time on it, yet I'm fully aware there are problems, both in terms of game mechanics and performances (stutter, my archenemy! ).
If you look around our forums I'm sure you'll notice some faster kills.
The composer's name is Russell Brower.
