When you craft Seven Sins can you trade it to other people?
Nope. That's stupid. What if they're in the game with you when you craft it? I'm actually not sure.

That sounds more like the kind of thing I was thinking of. I've not had anything like that drop for me yet though I'm kinda bored with the areas too, one thing I am looking forward to with Act 5 is just somewhere new! Yeah having someplace else to look at would be a major plus, that's the biggest source of fatigue for me.

Suppose you had 200 million. What would you do with it? Combine more gems? Craft more stuff that you wouldn't have the mats for until you salvage enough?
I'm not sure that gold is going to be something that requires hoarding given the no trading mechanism.
Use it to pay the Mystic to reroll stats on your rares and legendaries? I saw a youtube clip of someone demoing that from beta and it gets into the millions fast (and cranks up higher and higher on every reroll). I think the idea is that with the AH closing, gold will be a little harder to find. No idea though. I just figure that 200 million in a realm with zero AH is a pretty high number.

Well remember, anything that has a little filled-in dot next to it on the weapon description isn't being factored into displayed DPS. That includes a lot of special legendary properties, damage type boosts, skill boosts, etc. So a lot of the time it is actually not necessarily going to be correct to change weapons to get a paper DPS increase. If I'm using all cold skills and am stacking +cold %, none of that shows in the raw dps stat on the screen, so I could actually really weaken myself by going for a weapon that the tooltip calls a generic dps upgrade.
That's not what I meant, really, but whatever.

You should play Path of Exile and forget that Diablo 3 was ever made.

Let's not do this for the 50th time.
We all agree, the loot overhaul has helped some.

I just wish my butcher axe wouldn't make butcher sounds. It's like I'm killing stuff with a burlap sack full of copulating pigs.
If I could find another taunt-meteor staff, I'd be a happy camper. That thing was a lot of fun to use leveling up. Although, I am enjoying this new arcane torment/archon build. It does pretty well even with my crappy gear.

Agreed on both counts. You're doing well today.

I want that taunt-meteor staff too. I also want that elemental-arrow-turns-into-a-builder bow. I'm trying not to go too crazy though, since the expansion is in two weeks.

Some of the top end set bonuses are even sillier stuff - permanent Call of the Ancients, permanent fetish army, etc.

IIRC there's a level 70 set bonus in the expansion that makes you have all the companions instead of one.

Are the companions any more useful at 70? The ones I have still take forever to kill anything. The only reason I cart one around is because they provide some healing, or occasional CC.

Their buffs and CC are what's useful.

The 'active'/'passive' thing on the companions is actually useful.

That'll get nerfed into the ground somehow.
But yeah, if it's just like that, it'll be awesome.
The legendary that gives you all the mantras is also rather awesome. Not seen it in anger yet tho.

The level 60 Kridershot I got tonight that makes all elemetal arrows give +3 hatred is fucking insane. These legendary items are basically easy-mode. http://us.battle.net/d3/en/item/kridershotShame mine doesn't generate 4 hatred.

The tooltips are really bad. At least in PoE, you equip something and all your tooltips reflect your damage. In this, I equip something new and hover over my Frost Orb and it still says X% weapon damage. Should be an option to throw in real numbers.

It's too easy to reset quests and I'm puzzled at the very option to do so. I thought I was just going to act I again not wiping all my progress. /sigh
Said in sadness from a guy now on the "go kill Maghda" quest and must slog through all the story in the next few days or have no ability to jump in to random games at 60. Joy.
I suspect THIS is another reason we're not seeing a lot of public games.

Yeah, I made that mistake too. I have no idea why it would do it either, since surely it should just flag you as having completed on a certain difficulty (I mean, come on to fuck, you get an achievement, so we know it's recorded) and that'd be you able to hop anywhere.
Instead you get kinda 'locked in' at times. It's utter bullshit.
Oddly, you can then join someone elses game and that will bring you magically up to that content, but it's still bloody odd.

Now I have to admit to ignorance and say I've never used Origin (mostly because of the lamentation of the women and gnashing of teeth I hear in here), but I can't imagine how you can compare that to the battle.net launcher ?
Are you having issues with it ? I think it's rather grand...

I expected that, as well. Then, when it turned out not to be the case I thought, "Well, since I"m reset maybe I'll get the guaranteed legendary/ rare from bosses. I can see this being a fruitful option if that happens." It's not. I got blues from the Skeleton King. So, uh, WTF?

They changed it so that only Diablo will drop the guaranteed Legendary if you use "Reset Quests".

I switched the barb to a boulder tossing fury generator build. He's now critting shit for 4M damage every boulder. Which is swanky.
