I love 'playing' the AH in WoW and look forward to (what I hope will be) trying an improved version for Diablo. I am genuinely excited to see how this aspect plays out.

Aug 3, 2011Elpenor posted a message on Runic Revision?I think I would 'enjoy' this new style. It really does sound more in line with the Diablo franchise. And the way my friend and I play tends to be to run one main character through the game and then work on several more based on what gear drops.Posted in: News
Maybe that means he runs a wizard with my barbarian the first time through - then I inherit his unwanted runes for my wizard...
I can see this working. -

No it WON'T. You're assuming everyone behaves rationally, like counting machines. You're assuming everyone will exchange currencies immediately like some HFT software. Human beings are not pure theory executors, and the system in practice will be many orders of magnitude more complex than you and Phrozen are making it out to be.
Hopefully this isn't too much of a tangent. What if instead of two AH markets the exchange rate is "fixed"? What if the exchange rate is constantly up-to-date? I have no idea if it is practical but if the AH allows bids in gold and cash interchangeably, would that solve your frustration?
Obviously, that is a rather large hypothetical. -
Aug 2, 2011Elpenor posted a message on The Auction House ExplainedAm I right in assuming the D3 market will be similar in size (number of users) to a high population WoW server?Posted in: News
Size does matter. And how large the market is will have an impact on how hard it will be to manipulate. -

Much like an earlier poster who talked about WoW's "auction-pvp", there are some of us who will use the AH in D3 for the fun of it. I will play the game to kill mobs, hell yeah! but I will also get a TON of mileage out of that evil "Market Manipulation".
I 'know a guy' who bought a truck and two jetskiis by selling WoW gold. There it was illicit and against the EULA but.... Here in D3 it will be sanctioned and will support Blizzard.
ETA: You just posted again so this is in reply to your page 5 post. -

I'll try default and how it work, if I'm not satisfied I'll switch back to classic.
I am thinking of using default to start and moving to toggle if default doesn't work. I dislike classic. -

I picked up a decent 2h axe and I would like to try this build for Nightmare: http://us.battle.net...YfPi!ZdY!aaZZ.Z (solo or grouped with wizard)
Am I going to be too low on defensive skills? I just felt like I was too low on dps for solo when I changed difficulty. Character sheet with my new axe shows 500dps unbuffed.
I think with the Bloodthrist passive and gear I am at ~5% lifesteal and 100 life per hit, that is what I am counting on to keep me alive I guess.
(ETA: by slow going I mean I am trying to kill faster than my cleave build is working.)

I am told that the Stone of Jordan is so common that it was an appropriate method for summoning Uber Diablo via vendor rate. Well, in 10 years of on-and-off play, I have never found a single SoJ. That includes the last year of pretty regular play waiting on D3. Regular enough to get a few characters to high 80s and one to 97. Not a single SoJ. If things continue as it appears, I may actually get an SoJ before the Collector's Edition arrives at my doorstep!
Edit: Request withdrawn, Adon was kind to me in Give-Away-2.

Why am I getting a Wisconsin vibe here? Sure, you may have mentioned pepperjack instead of cheddar here but still...
I doubt I'll be able to pull any marathon level play streaks that I would have in the single life. So it will probably be a fair amount of coffee, beef sticks or jerky, homemade BBQ chicken or cheeseburger pizza and whisk(e)y!

I thought I had seen it before, but I had watched 'Destroyer - this was much longer and better.

But in reality, I never have spent money on game paraphernalia. It just doesn't fit my personality. I would rather hire a blacksmith/swordsmith to build a functional version of the ceremonial sword I have/use.
