"Additionally, this change gives the Demon Hunter from our previous example a much better sense of where she stands with respect to her survivability. On MP0 you might take 10K damage per second in Desecrator. With 50K effective health she notices she’s missing some health but she says to herself “I could stand in that for 5 seconds if I had to”. However, she turns up the MP and suddenly now she’s taking 25K damage per second. Now she’s thinking “That Desecrator is starting to hurt, and it’s stressful. I can only stand in it for 2 seconds before I die, and even getting out in 0.5 seconds I am losing 25% of my health”. By doing moderated amounts of unavoidable damage, the player can get an intuitive sense for how risky they can be. You can still perform much better as a highly skilled player but there are less surprises. Suppose 0.5 seconds of Desecrator, a monster melee attack and a Frozen explosion all do roughly the same damage. At the point that you notice a Desecrator is “pretty scary” you now have the information to extrapolate that a Vortex/Frozen/Melee attack combo is going to kill you."

The more I read this, it feels that you are playing against mechanic. Not really a diablo game.

Yep, blizzard is gonna come here and say "OK we will bring hosility back for you!" Really.... I'm looking foward to it!

This may be confusing to those people how they think about world pvp stuff in Diablo 2 and how it will be alike in Diablo 3.. Ok, let's think about it.. When you are playing D2 and someone came by and hostile everyone... Now what happen? Pretty much that everyone S&E to create password game so the idiots cant come hostile cuz its annoying. Very disturbing to continue their progression. Even asking for duel is annoying too! If you want to fight, arena it is then! I like to pvp but I don't like when an ass**** comes hostle and destroys my progression or asking for duel all the time!

I like how this is set up in Diablo 3, better than Diablo 2 world-gayness pvp.

my 5 cent

Not really, I would be very excited to get in beta to help out with bugs and issue. At the sametime, I would like to know what to do when the game is released and get ahead quickly. MMO game is always about competetive and that what makes it fun for me.

Skill and Gears combo system is always the major issue to make the game. I have not played any game that has very good system like Asheron's Call. Maybe few of u have played it before, I love how the system are... You can build any skill from lvl 1 with exp points. Say if u need 100 exp to get level 2 Sword Mastery, so u have to kill some monster to get that amount of exp.. then u click to level up. and then level 3 Sword will be 250 exp and so forth. For an example, you found a Frost Sword that requires 10 sword mastery to equip it. Just need to have balance between skill and gear to advance through the game in my opinion..

Ok, Am I following the rules to be eligible to get Beta key access? All I need to do is make 3 sentence, no flaming/trolling, constructive sentence, and its on my own topic. Here is my constructive sentence, I made 3 sentences for this topic. I am not trolling you guys because I want to win the beta key. Thoughts?

Thanks for reading and let me know if I win the beta!

6 set of jah/ber on 2nd day of ladder... yet dupe is still working.

Quote from gabbzy17

At this rate everyone is only selling items on the RMAH so there will be no buyers...just saying

Your wrong... there will be plenty buyers.... Why?

1. Casual player that works full time job that has no time to farm gears for pve or pvp.
2. Buy low/Sell High people
3. People that sold stuff... uses that money to buy other stuff without cashing out.
4. People are desperate.
5. Rich Kids

etc....

Quote from NeciFiX

My only concern is that people will probably want to BUY items in gold, but, SELL them in real money. See how that wouldn't work?

You mean... Who would buy real money items? Those rich punks, Buy low/Sell high people, or those people doesnt have time to farm for gears due to full time job.

I hope so!

Awesome stuff Sixen and the team this is great stuff alot to read and I don't mind the RWT auction house because a game i'll play for a while while allow me to get some money for my time played doesn't sound bad at all.

I just don't want money to take over the gold auction house and no one sells anything good on there, that would be horrible for people who don't have alot of money.

There are free listings that will allow you to sell items even if you haven't paid a dime. Then you can take your auction proceedings as e-balance that will be attached to your Blizzard account. Then you can just use your e-balance as you'd use any in-game currency.

And e-balance can be used to pay for Diablo 3 expansion packs, other Blizzard games and merchandise, but not cashed out.

Thing concerns me is... when they are selling stuff in "gold section" People will just keep thier eye on it to buy it with "fake money" and sell it on "real money". This is another way for people to make money.... This concerns me allot!

I would probably go as Toggle. Why? The default 10 sec to show name then fades.... what if u missed it while busy killing... nah... Toggle ftw..

I think cool down timer takes the fun out of the game.

The advertisement for Buffalo Wild wing... that white dog sure look like albino Diablo!
