    posted a message on RIP AH you will be missed
    RIP in peace, buddy...

    I know I woulnd't have experienced nearly half of the builds I did on all of my characters if it wasn't for you. I wouldn't have geared up quickly for a new patch after taking long breaks from D3. I wouldn't have found "great deals" at bidding that made someone feel like they just found that one forgotten trading thread that everyone missed with that awesome item back in D2/D2JSP days...

    You had a dark side, though. You showed people how they are not as hardcore as they think... you didn't account for a much needed item sink, so players with decent gear quickly drove things out of control by suppplying an endless stream of "above-average" items for the cheapest prices...

    And your biggest flaw - you limited developers' actions when it came to rebalancing gear, changing affixes and skills, and tweaking drop rates... they were always afraid of the backlash or breaking the game's economy beyong repair... that was the worst...

    Sorry buddy, you had to go... it was for the best...

    Yeah I agree with that. If they were going to implement brawling, a few basic functionalities would have been nice.

    The problem is creating that "queuing" system though. Because it's not just about "flat stats" to determine a player's strength. But things like a scoreboard, a "team marker" (like choose your team color), a "referee mode", a dps-meter, or things like that would've been awesome (and not so hard to implement imo).

    Lifesteal does not work at level 70 as far as I am aware.
    It doesn't. It's reduced to 0% at level 70.

    From levels 61-69, it works at a 10% effectiveness. So if you hit one enemyfor 100k damage and has a 3% lifesteal, instead of recovering 3k life, you would recover 300 life currently (versus 600 life before patch 2.0, when it had 20% effectiveness).

    I wonder if that will be enough for people to be incentivized to play more Brawling in RoS.

    It does still have the problem of not keeping track between games. I got one and did keeps 2, stonefort, and the 2 towers of the damned and it finally dropped an item at the end of the 2nd tower. If you finish a run with 12 picked up, you just wasted 100 common debris for nothing.
    And that certainly is an issue that should be looked into because it's well beyond the player's control whether you get a number of white items that's evenly divisible by 15 or not in any particular run (unless you go to the tedium of picking up white items and only dropping 15 at a time which is kinda insane).
    I kinda agree with that.

    Don't think the other part of it is a problem though, I'm happy with the tradeoff needed for the item to function.

    Love the concept of that Fire & Forget build.

    I imagine it could work particularly well with the Hexing Pants of Mr. Yan.. which I was using with a Pet/Fetish build when 2.0 hit.. :)

    We are talking rolls like;

    %elemental/skill damage, sockets and even primary stats.
    Aren't the rolls on 2handed weapons doubled when compared to 1h weapons?
    As far as I've understood it, no. Not atm. Especially stuff like "extra" effect on legendaries, which aren't really double good on a 2hander.
    To me that's one of the biggest problems. If 2-handers automatically take away one of your "roflstomp GG legendary effect", they should at least be so insanely amazing that we can actually consider using them. Instead they are just "pretty good".

    For instance, the Staff/Daibo (can't remember) that gives the Tempest Rush the Tailwind rune. It's pretty good, but hardly reason enough to give up say a Thunderfury and a Jawbreaker (insane dps PLUS mobility).

    Now if it gave something like "Tempest Rush has a 50% reduced Spirit Cost", or made you immune to Knockback/Vortex/Jailer, then we'd be talking seriously.

    posted a message on Will release of ROS be at 12:01 AM Tuesday 25th or after a maintenance?
    I just hope there's less problems now.

    I mean, they already had a big release with D3V, and I doubt RoS will have as many players... so there's no reason for them to have huge issues and login problems after all the experience gained on D3V.

    But we can only hope, really.

    You are behind the curve by about 2 weeks? Seriously people were doing this the moment 2.0 hit =|

    Also, don't bump your thread more than once/day. Thanks for your cooperation.
