Did somebody remove me from the Clan?  Or do we have more than one now?

Edit: Looks like it's working and I'm still a member.

Ah crap, XP buff ran out at Midnight. Thought we'd have until RoS launch. Ah well it was nice while it lasted.


Ah damn.  Was running with my son last night and thought the same thing.  Oh well.  Midnight tonight for launch.   Tomorrow for us old working farts.

So what do you do with legendaries you don't use anymore? I'm guessing vendoring them is not a good idea.  I started playing again yesterday and i've gotten like five already, compared to the zero from my first play through at launch.

My wizard couldn't make it past Belial yesterday on Torment 1. I tried again and again but just couldn't do it. So I finished up the run through on Master. By the time I killed Diablo I'd had several equipment upgrades and modified my build a little to match the other overpowered wizards. So then I went back to Torment 1 and killed all the bosses just to make sure I could.

I'm sitting comfortably at the end of Act 4 now on Torment 1 waiting to do the quest turn in to turn on the expansion content.

Belial still almost killed me though. Is he the hardest of the bosses or am I just over sensitive to poison?

Nah, they just fixed their shit.  Problem was the quantity and quality of items.  Gameplay was there, even for a non-ARPG player like myself.  While I'd prefer a "theme" build vs. the "everyone gets all skills" type, but I understand not doing it in 2012.  PoE does this well but the play doesn't feel as good.. probably because I don't want to pick 32 different iterations of "add +5 stat"

Do you have to be done with Act IV to start on Act V when the expansion goes live?  I imagine there are quite a few of us that are in the middle of reset quest lines.

I think that is the case.

I was going to start a Crusader anyway, so I'm fine with my Wizard being stuck in Act 3 right now.

Yes you either have to be at diablo ready to kill him or have already killed him and *not* reset quests in order to progress to the expansion content.

Belial only has 4 different attacks, and they're all telegraphed.  Once you learn them, he's a joke (except for back when lag would kill me on the poison circle spamming, since I couldn't tell whether I was in the damn things or not).

It can be hard to dodge the breath attack, but it doesn't happen often enough you shouldn't be able to heal around it.

If you reset quests, Diablo is guaranteed to drop a unique when you kill him.

Kind of pointless, really.

Shit I just killed the Skeleton King. Might have to set it to normal and blaze through so I can do Act V.

Yes, but you can cheat if you want and have one of us pull you in to the Prime Evil quest tonight.  That will fix your quests but not give you the guaranteed legendary off of Diablo.

To be obnoxious and sit right below the "change game" settings so you fuck up and have to waste 4-6 hours running around again.

I think I get on later than everyone else, but I'll definitely be in the market for a Prime Evil kill.  I doubt this will be possible with both characters, but I'd like to at least get the witch doctor ready for Act V.

You're definitely on later than me, but I think Pen and Soulflame gave me shit the other day for being an East Coaster, so they'll be around I'm sure.   I'm up for assisting anyone who needs it as I didn't go digital so I won't be hanging out at midnight for the nuttiness.

Jenny and I will be playing promptly at midnight est/11 central. If anyone wants to join us for Torment 2 act 5, we'll be on with a Demon Hunter and OP Twiddly Fingers Tank Thing. Then we'll probably do adventure mode for the following hour or two.

Belial still almost killed me though. Is he the hardest of the bosses or am I just over sensitive to poison?

He was quite difficult for me on my Wizard on T3 with the build I had been running.  Towards the end (maybe this only happens in Torment) he starts unleashing those poison bombs everywhere non-stop.  If you stop moving to try to DPS him, you die.  I had to alter my build to be able to kill him.  I just grabbed Hydra and Blizzard as those both keep the DPS going while I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off.

I'm in for Act V at midnight (9 pacific) for a non-cutscene-skipping group.  The story may be absurd, but I like watching the silly cutscenes my first time through a piece of content.

Realized last night that I had reset quests on my Wizard and finished that game to be ready for tonight.

So I'm weak.  I finally gave the patches a chance over the weekend and actually enjoyed myself enough.  Don't have a level 60 yet but thanks to the xp bonus my Wizard is 45 now so it should happen soon enough.
