    Hans posted a message on Is the new patch we have RoS?
    You might still have to download some files on release day. Likely it is just a patch that fixed some things they are still working on, but still it could be some graphical assets if they redesigned some things.

    As of now you do have the latest version of RoS.

    Hans posted a message on Proper Toughness Stacking (Video)
    I have not seen your video and will not due to bandwidth caps I have to worry about 10gigs a month is not that much.

    I found a balanced approach to the components that make up Toughness rating.

    I have not played the Beta but I think you might need life in order to have a cushion for your other toughness effects to work well. Some of the healing components are based on the max life of your character as well as some skills are based on that as well. Potions are based on 60% of your life as well as Health Globes.

    I have a feeling that monsters are going to hit very very very hard on higher torment levels at level 70.

    I do agree that just focusing on life is not a good thing but a more balanced approach based on what gear you have and the build you are using.

    Hans posted a message on Smart Loot and Alts and Followers
    Followers are not that bad since Vit is their main stat. Other Stats do help them stay alive longer since the other stats do boost defensive stats. I do not really focus too much on their damage since their most important duty is to stay in the fight.

    But only a week to go and RoS will give us much more options with making the loot 2.0 gear work more effectively for our characters and followers.

    Also if you are looking to play the Crusader then it would be real nice to have a good stockpile of mats since Crafting helps out a lot with a new character.

    Hans posted a message on Stats What is more important?
    All components are quite important in the toughness category. Quite a few of the components do suffer from diminishing returns. Sometimes it is better to look for items that boosts other components that make up the toughness category.

    Having too much life is better than not having enough life. Some skills and potions/life globes are based on max life.

    I think Diablo is going to enter a Ladders, Tables, and Chairs match for Wrestle Mania.

    My feeling is that Blizzard is getting us prepped up for the April 1st fools day prank.

    I find it is important to find a nice balance between resists, armor, life %, Vit, and the different means to regain life.

    You can not just look at the toughness but look at the whole picture.

    Hans posted a message on high and fast dps class ?
    The best suggestion I can give is just farm for resources for crafting and craft the gear for your Crusader at launch. Another thing you can do is do some crafting with a Barb since their main stat is the same as the Crusader. I believe you can craft Crusader items right now. I have seen the recipes but have not tried it yet. You might get a craft with reduced level needed to equip and maybe you Crusader can use a nice 1400dps weapon at level 39 or something like that.

    I never look at the DPS stat sheet. I look at the damage per hit and the range of it.

    Now we also have a boring system, which consist on get whatever stats increases sheet dps the most. It would be more fun to say: Hem, I 've got enought IAS or CRIt, so I must get aoe dmg or cold dmg or whatever.
    How is "get 30% crit then get 50% cold damage" any better than "get 80% crit?"

    The original team set out to get AWAY from that kind of thing. The idea is that we're supposed to spend our time killing shit, not in menus and in town, and with spreadsheets trying to figure out how to make our gear work. We're supposed to be enjoying the game, not crunching numbers. I've posted the link so many times in the past month that I'm not even going to go get it again.

    Complexity was never the intent of the Blizzard North team so stop asking for it. The original intent of the series was to eliminate the exact kind of mechanics that you're claiming we so desperately need.

    EDIT
    I lied. Here's the link. The original vision for Diablo simply doesn't mesh with your idea of breakpoints and the like. Deal with it.
    I also post a link to Erich Schaefer's thoughts on Balancing. It is a link to DIII forums since the original one is no longer working for me.

    Play whichever way you are having fun with. The goal for playing the game is to have fun.

    Hans posted a message on Most useless legendaries "orange properties".
    It looks to me that people want new stats but then complain that the item does not have the main stat, vit, crit chance and crit damage, and the couple of other stats.

    I guess they just want those stats but much higher.
