Glad to see my chars that I haven't played in months are still badass lol

Thanks. I think the strongarm bracers is what I'll look for first. They are pretty cheap.

I got some. Raised DPS 3k for only 200k.


I also put a bid in on a chest that should give me 100+ more dex and more Vit too. Hopefully I get it.

Thanks again!

Over the past few days I have been camping the AH looking for +crit stuff. In the past my priority was dex>vit>resistance>armor. I had 65%+ dmg reduction from armor and resistance, 60% dodge, and 65k health. I could survive MP10, but couldn't kill jack. I hovered around 45k DPS.

Now I'm kind of stuck. I can't find anything that will raise my DPS more than a few K without spending MILLIONS of gold. What should I do?

No offense, but the only decent rolls on that are the, +attack and +crit, the others are all relatively low compared to a "good" roll. I'd only spend 2 million on em, and not sure I'd even spend that much because it would be a downgrade in Dex, Armor, and Resistance for my current gloves.

you forgot the ~40% that thought it was both good and bad. Less people thought it was bad than good.

I'm loving the patch. Pre-patch I was able to blaze though A1 inferno NO problems at all, then A2 I would get roflstompped. Now I can solo A2 and only skip like 1/5 of the champion packs that have gay affix's. I love the 5 neph. stack buff too, makes you WANT to farm the entire act.

The only one that doesn't work is the repair bill. Other than that I LOL'd every time.

I understand those Monk nerfs are technically "bugs" - but taking them away basically makes Inferno impossible unless your 100% geared from Act 4 Hell; which is why I'm now leveling a DH so I can farm Inferno without dying non-stop.

The very fact that you can do damage at range makes Wizards good. I'm playing a Monk and once I hit act 3 Nightmare, there were some enchanted groups that I literally could not kill without dying a few times in the process. Some of the heavy hitting enchanted mobs = guaranteed death for melee characters, because you simply cannot out-maneuver or out-heal it. I even have 2 self-healing spells! Just be glad you can do damage and kite. I fully intend to make a Wizard or WD for farming Hell and Inferno because of this very fact (even IF they do less damage.... at least they can kite).

Sounds to me like you just need to learn to play the class you picked.

Level
I didn't farm for level/gold/drops, so in nightmare I was getting drops that were above my level, which was perfectly fine. They were huge upgrades and I just kept them until I hit that level

Rare Drops
Seems like too many rare (yellow) items drop. Most of the time the rares where lame because they didn't have the right stats on them, but the few times you get a yellow that actually fit your class, it's a jackpot!

Gems
They have become an annoyance to me. They drop so frequently, and because they drop at different levels, they are taking up a good chunk of my stash. I combine and upgrade them frequently, but they are still taking up about 1/3 of my stash!

Followers
With my head-on playstyle thus far, the templar is a must. Sometime I'll get a little to deep and the random heals from him have saved my life a few times. I don't really need the extra damage or CC from the other 2 followers.

Gold
After maxing out the first page of the shared stash I stated leveling the BS and Jeweler. I like to keep at least 20k gold in my stash just in case a vendor has a nice ring/neck.

Salvage
I'm salvaging everything that I don't use, and can't go on a follower. There's just too many good drops to try to send them to an alt or sell on the AH, and the shared stash is way to small to keep them. I'm out leveling the BS (I don't have enough gold to get him to my level), so all the salvaged materials are just sitting in my stash, but at least they will get a lot of use from alts.

First, for me, Nightmare was easier than Normal.
This is probably for a couple simple reasons. Gear and skills. The gear seems to greatly inflate in nightmare, beyond the enemies. Also, you get a good set of skills to use, which is not a likely case in normal where you just stuck with a few good skills/runes.

Solo vs co-op
Solo is much more preferred. Being able to walk away (and pause) at any time is awesome. It also make you feel much more powerful when you're the only person slaying thousands of demons. I've tried to do co-op a few times and get stuck with AFK'ers or town/inventory stalkers.

Monk
I accidentally made a Monk the night of release, and because the character creation was bugged I didn't want to re-log or try to re-create another character, so I just went with it. While it can sometime be hard against other heavy hitting melee attacks with my current build, I just simply out heal any damage that comes my way. I love love love being able to constantly teleport around. I love the Monk way more that I thought I would, and way more than I did in the beta.
Here's my build. http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/monk#abgdQi!bXY!aaaaaZ
I think it's the best build you can get for leveling thus far, at least with my play style. I just run head-on into everything, constantly getting into the middle of groups with Dashing Strike keeping Sweeping Wind up.

yay, I got in, but getting server messages that the "servers will be shut down in 5 minutes"

I wouldn't expect anything more from Best Buy. Lucky that it's expected on the 16th, and not 20th or something. Best Buy is a terrible business, I haven't been to one for years and haven't been missing out on anything.

The answer is yes dude. You can teleport as many times as you want as long as you do it back-to-back. It's not as cryptic as you think, he answers it bluntly.
