Venator_Noctis posted a message on Hall of the DeadI think this idea is cool so that people would be able to reminisce on what they have accomplished with these dead heroes they valiantly fought Diablo & his minions with. lols!Posted in: News
Although, I would add that Blizzard should put a limit on when these dead heroes would be put up on the Hall of the Dead:
• First of, they should have already reached level 30 or
• they have finished Normal difficulty level, whichever comes first.
If they haven't accomplished these before they died, then there's really nothing that heroic for them to be remembered upon, so they shouldn't be put in the Hall of the Dead, or else, they would be just a worthless clutter taking up space, and I assume there would be a lot of these worthless low level clutter from noobs who'll be playing the game...
In short, the Hall of the Dead, should only be for heroes who have endured the test of time and died heroically, adorned with all their battle gear glory.
Of course, it goes to say that whatever items they have left in the shared HC stash is still usable and wont be lost. Like what the Blue Post said, the HC stash is separate from the SC character's stash, so even if it is an account shared stash, the items are only shared between the HC characters (people who are slow should be able to understand this and stop complaining).

Venator_Noctis posted a message on New Class Skill VideosThen Demon Hunter we will go, go, GO!Posted in: News
To Denhi,
The 3rd Demon Hunter skill does look like the Elemental Arrow runed to give off cool lightning charges that looks like it's seeking out its targets.
I think the 4th Male Demon Hunter skill was Sentry though, where he makes a full 360° spin firing at far monsters at the same time releasing small bombs for the near ones.
What bought me though was when he activated the Shadow Power, then he fired those red hot rapid fire shots, like his holding an uzi, firing like crazy.
Activating the Shadow Power made him look like freaking Tyrael with black angel wings.
Most probably this Shadow Power gives additional damage or something.
If the 4th Female Demon Hunter skill was companion, it looks so powerful. You can blast away monsters around you.
Then. like the Wizard's Teleport Skill, the Demon Hunter's Vault skill leaves a trail of magma... guess this is what happened to that Molten Arrow skill before that disappeared from the Demon Hunter skill list.

Venator_Noctis posted a message on DiabloCast: Episode XXII - Be Your Own DemonI totally disagree with what Sixen said on the PodCast. Diablo III will ship out at release with Inferno as its initial End-Game content. It will take months of sleepless nights & grueling play before someone gets through hell, much more even try to get through Inferno.Posted in: News
Jay Wilson may have said that Inferno has a flat-level system so people will not choose where to grind & farm the content for the best gear, but that doesn't mean that Inferno would be a child's play that you could just whizz through with ease in a week or so.
People should listen more closely to what Jay is saying & really hear him out, because according to Jay in this two interview videos, Inferno would really, really be a very hard & difficult level that you'll need to make many more runs in Hell (listen to his explanation from time stamp 1:00 up to 1:52 here: http://www.pcgames.de/Diablo-3-PC-27763/News/Diablo-3-Video-Interview-von-der-Gamescom-Auktionshaus-Online-Zwang-Inferno-und-mehr-840078/)
before you're character would be suitably equipped for the task of facing the HORDES OF MONSTERS WHOSE MINIMUM LEVEL IS 61 (now listen to him from time stamp 0:43 up to 1:02 only:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGTcyLdZrqE).

Venator_Noctis posted a message on Inferno RevealedPosted in: News
Blizzard Entertainment game director Jay Wilson tells Kotaku thatQuote from Slayerviper
I have the shakes!!! So stoked!!
As for the "debate" on monsters over 61 how about all monsters are lvl 61, champions, unique, and major bosses are 62+ happy?
"Diablo III's Inferno difficulty is aimed at players who have maxed out their character by reaching the level 60 player cap.
Only then can they tackle Inferno difficulty, a challenge that will throw enemies at the player that are of even higher levels.
Wilson says the level for every monster in Inferno will be, at minimum, level 61 making Diablo III's hardest difficulty setting an overwhelming, often uphill battle.
At minimum level of 61 doesn't mean that Blizzard will make all monsters to be lvl 61, champions, unique, and major bosses are 62+... throughout the Inferno run.
You're idea would simply put them back at step 1 on play-ability. You have to think broader...
Your idea most likely would be applicable only on the 1st Quest in Act I of Inferno, but as the game progresses, so does its difficulty... meaning, the monsters level up successively in different Acts of the game, which would make the end-game an overwhelming, often uphill battle.
Besides, Blizzard sure hell did not design the end-game with noobs or the so called "casual players" in-mind.
It would be safe to presume that Inferno was created as an end-game for the die-hard players who have mostly finished the Nightmare & Hell difficulty levels of Diablo II, who wants to see more content in Diablo III.
Inferno would not be a simple child's play that everyone could just breeze through.
It would distinctly set apart the dedicated players from the lot, because only the few, the proud dedicated ones will try to finish the end-game.
As for the chickens, most of them would try to farm in Act I, while some might make it to Act II of Inferno, but that would simply be as far as they can go for they will get overwhelmed.
So for the noobs here or those pretending to have played Diablo 2 through Hell,
wait for the game, then try playing through Hell this time before making assumptions about going to be able to finish or even reach the end-game, Inferno.
If you want to see the video of the presentation at GamesCon, click thru my link below:
http://www.diablofans.com/topic/27214-new-armor-weapon-item-tiers-exclusive-to-inferno-alone/page__p__636965#entry636965
.
Isn't it that green color coded items are part of a Set Item?Quote from CrusaderGT
Hmm he did say rare but the color code for rare is yellow. Maybe because it's unique equip (what I meant by this is it's only for barbarian, when you look closely at top right corner of the tooltip)?[Quote from Modmannen
It is indeed green, and it says Rare, and Jay says it's a rare. Perhaps they've swapped Lore/Quest with Rares, just to make rare and legendary more distinct. I dunnoQuote from CrusaderGT
So at 6:32 of the new video presentation where Jay is showing off 2 items. Is it just me or that weapon is color coded green? I thought green are now only for artifacts (quest or lore items). Hmm maybe my hoping for a new item quality was already in place?
This simply means that this powerful & rare Barbarian's 2-handed axe, Savage Mangler, would only be attainable in Inferno.
So aside from the rare individual items you may get when playing Inferno, there's is
a randomized possibility that you may end up collecting a complete epic Set Items as well.
Remember, after you've completed a Set Item & use it as a whole, you get additional bonuses
and possibly affixes & affix combos as well.

The problem is, if its too hard, like your Barb gets one-hitet by normal mobs if you dont specc all defensive its rather... bad. Then again you can respecc freely, so you can specc tank-ish for inferno, and offensive for PvP/ Hell-farming.
Edit:
Sry I dont know what you mean with "closeted soloists" but Inferno should still be soloable... and playing solo doesnt mean you are a "bad" player OoMost will try to make it, but I doubt that those closeted soloist will make it even through Hell.
They can try & if they're lucky or very clever then they might... doesn't mean they will.
I never said, playing solo makes you a bad player,
but if you don't come out of the closet & play co-op with your friends
(& if you don't have one, meet & make new ones in Battle.net),
then with monsters level cap at 61 & above[/size], if you do make it through Nightmare & Hell difficulty level playing alone, I guarantee you, the moment you step out of town in Inferno & you face the monster, you'll die.
they will be lvl 61. not above. http://www.judgehype.com/images.php?img=231981all the monsters level cap at 61 & above

For those who are just reading this thread just now. Welcome & hope you are enjoying the new good news about the game.
Again, Inferno level is the End Game but you cannot access or wont even see it in the menu options until you've defeated the 3 difficulty levels of the game, namely Normal, Nightmare & Hell, and until you've reached the level cap of 60.
So now the equation is:
COMPLETED HELL DIFFICULTY + (LEVEL ≥ 60) = INFERNO DIFFICULTY LEVEL ACCESS GRANTED

I think Bash said once that only a rather small part of the playerbase played more than Normal in D2. But I think allmost all of the "real" fans will make it through inferno, maybe some will stop halfway through because its to hard, but I belive most will make it.
They can try & if they're lucky or are very clever then they might... but doesn't mean they will.
But Inferno, with all the monsters level cap at 61 & above, just on Act I.
Hello!?! Who are they f'in kidding? They'll die as soon as they leave town.
Still, all difficult things comes with a price.
In Inferno, it's your life in exchange for better loot:
"Inferno difficulty naturally comes with rewards beyond sightseeing, Wilson says. Some armor, weapons and items will be exclusive to Inferno (while other highly coveted items will drop more frequently at that level). Some of the game's Runestones, the socketable items that modify player skills and spells, are also found only in Inferno, offering all new abilities to those willing to run the risk of playing at the top tier difficulty"

Venator_Noctis posted a message on Inferno RevealedPosted in: NewsQuote from papaz12
So ehhh ok. So inferno was harder than hell, nothing unexpected there.
Sorry for sounding like a party pooper but what is so remarkable and replayable about the content now?
You go through the same thing over and over again with now *drumroll".... a new difficulty mode.
Hope you guys enjoy.
With new good news for Diablo III from GamesCon, still, we cannot erase the fact that there really are a lot of bitchin & whiners out there, but what can we do.Quote from ScyberDragon
I don't think people should really look at this like a new difficulty that you have to get to the end to.
The entire Inferno will not progress in difficulty through the acts.
It basically lets you farm for gear throughout the entire game instead of just the bosses or last act in hell for the best gear.
Maybe that's just who & what they are, closet guys who are afraid to play Diablo III, that's why they keep on bitchin & whining all the time...
That's why, before some of you guys post your comments, please read the full detail of the interview here first:
http://www.diablofans.com/topic/27203-inferno-revealed/page__st__40__p__636873#entry636873
If you've read the full detail & you still feel like bitchin & whining,
then don't f'ing buy the game & go back to playing the kid's stuff.
It'll be much better for the lot of us who will enjoy playing the game through & through.

Venator_Noctis posted a message on Inferno RevealedI believe the first news about the confirmation of Inferno was posted by Dalren who joined Curse on 01-August '11 & Hicksology who joined Curse 02-August '11, mainly due to the Diablo III hype.Posted in: News
I want to give credit to Dalren whose thread, entitled: "Inferno difficulty revealed at Gamescom" which was posted Today @ 01:52 PM GMT
http://www.diablofans.com/topic/27197-inferno-difficulty-revealed-at-gamescom/
& to Hicksology whose thread, entitled: "Inferno difficulty confirmed!" who posted his thread a minute earlier @ 1:51 PM GMT.
http://www.diablofans.com/topic/27196-inferno-difficulty-confirmed/
Both threads were by far an hour & 50mins earlier than this thread posted by ScyberDragon @ 3:40 PM GMT.

I believe the following screens are new: http://kotaku.com/5831682/new-diablo-iii-screen-shots-from-gamescom-2011/gallery/1
For the full detail about the interview, click here:
http://kotaku.com/5831680/diablo-iii-just-got-harder-than-hell-with-new-inferno-difficulty
Contrary to what I said that Inferno difficulty level would be a secret choice that would only appear after a player beats the Hell difficulty level,
it seems that another requirement is that you have to level cap your character to 60 as well.
So now the equation is:
COMPLETED HELL DIFFICULTY + (LEVEL ≥ 60) = INFERNO DIFFICULTY LEVEL ACCESS GRANTED
Now, I'm even more excited for the Beta and ultimately for the game's release, hopefully before the Christmas holidays.

Venator_Noctis posted a message on Runic Revision?Posted in: NewsQuote from Velq5389
I am 100% for this randomization of runes. It will allow us to try new things we would never have tried without it. If we already knew what a rune would do, we would find that rune we want, and never try anything else... now we'll have to "look" for that elusive rune that we want... I LOVE IT! I REALLY REALLY HOPE THIS GETS IMPLEMENTED.
I'm for this great idea... doing this randomization will enable players to keep on playing and not rush the game because they have something to sought for. It will be a way for Blizzard to make sure, people will be playing the game for a long time in years to come. Since the high ranked runes would ever be elusive, players who want more will not stop advancing through the game after they beat the Normal difficulty level of the game. They will go on playing the game through Nightmare, through Hell and be really prepared to face the Demons if there is really a secret level Inferno.
I really, really, really hope that this gets implemented. d(>w<)b - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.

Took 3 days of work and will play it for 3 days straight, 24hour marathon.

Although I do remember that during the Open Beta, they slowly and casually let in a sizable number of players at time intervals to see if the servers can handle the load of players logging in. Also during that Open Beta weekend, Blizzard had to do a lot of system maintenance at times for long periods of time, and I don't think they wasted all those hours for nothing... so, bottom line is, I think Blizzard is as prepared as they can be for release day.
Some people are luckier than though, since I bought the CE and the Fry's store wont open until 8am, I wont be able to play until around before 9am when I get back home. Still, those people would only be ahead of me in game play by 9hours which I surely would regain with my continuous play for 2 days.
Yes, that's right. I took 3 days of work starting Tuesday so that I could accomplish a lot playing only Diablo III until Thursday evening for I have to get back to work on Friday morning. I'm all pumped up and excited to finally play my 3 day marathon.

For the battery issue most people are claiming, just like desktop computers which you use plugged in all the time to a wall socket outlet, I don't ever use my laptop with the batter in it. I always use it plugged into the wall outlet because I know I would be using it for hours straight. The battery of my laptop is still in the bubble wrap it came in with. I have never used it even once for the 2 years now that I've had my laptop. People who use their laptops with the battery in and always has the adapter plugged in the outlet is basically always overcharging the battery of their laptops and shortening the battery life.
Just think of it this way, when you use your cell phones or i-Pads or i-Phones or game boys plugged in the wall outlet all the time? No, right. You only have it plugged in whenever you are charging, and after it has charged you unplug it already.
So, why would a laptop be any different??? You should only plug in your laptop whenever you are charging the battery, otherwise, unplug it already. Whenever you overcharge these electronic device, what you are actually doing is just shortening the device's battery life. So my advice, if you plan on using your laptop for hours on straight, just take out the battery from the bottom of your laptop and just use it plugged in the wall outlet the whole time.

Question is, are you ready? Have you recently rigged up a new set of gears and accessories to be able to face Diablo's demonic hoards from the burning hell, or are you just using the same old piece of metal you have set-up. It may not matter which one you have but if you wanted a gratifying first time experience and fluid gameplay, I would suggest you make sure that your computer has a decent graphics card especially for people using laptops. You may think you have a high end laptop because you base it on the manufacturer (Apple, Toshiba, Dell, Sony... etc.) and you bought if for a lot of money, but hey if your laptop computer only came with an integrated graphics card, you are deceiving yourself. You can only expect your laptop to perform well and have decent graphics if it came with a dedicated graphics card.
The first thing a person buying a laptop should ever consider when buying a laptop is "does it have a dedicated graphics card" so that I could use it for gaming and graphics software (like CAD).
As for me, I like mobility so I prefer using my laptop. I never got to set up a desktop computer because I don't have a lot of extra space in my room, plus I'm always out of the house. With my laptop, I just need a decent WiFi connection and I'm good to go. I always play during my breaks, it may be for an hour or two. I can play at a local Starbucks, at Mc Donalds, at a corner in the Library, in hotel lobbies, at the airport, and even on the road using a WWAN verizon connection while my wife is driving.
I'm using a MSI GT683R laptop computer with all it's fancy lights. It's a fairly good gaming laptop, but just this April, NVidia just released their newest and fastest video card to date, the GTX 690. Although they still don't have a M version for laptops out, they do have a M version for the 3rd to their newest card, the NVidia GTX 670M which is installed on the newly released MSI GT60 0NC (15.6" laptop) and the MSI GT70 0NC (17" laptop).
I'm not a tall guy so a 15.6" laptop is just the right size for me. I don't want my back to suffer lugging around a 17" or 18" laptop. It also makes me happy that for the very first time, MSI put out a 15.6" laptop that has a full-color programmable backlit keyboard by SteelSeries. With their previous laptops, the SteelSeries gaming keyboard only comes on their 17" laptops.
To give you guys an idea of what power the new MSI GT60 has, here are the specs of the laptop (This would almost be the same with the GT70 except for a bigger screen and more Hard Drive space using Solid State Drives):
• Intel® Core™ i7-3610QM Processor (3rd Generation; the newest)
• Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium 64bit
• 15.6" Full HD Anti-reflective Display (16:9; 1920 x 1080)
• NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX670M discrete graphics (GDDR5 3GB VRAM)
• Full-color programmable backlit keyboard by SteelSeries
• Killer Game Networking
• 1.0TB (7200RPM; 500GB x 2 in RAID 0)
• 12GB DDR3 1600MHz system memory
• USB 3.0 for high speed data transfer
• HDMI 1.4 (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) output
• Built-in 720p HD webcam
• Gold flashed audio jack ports with amplifier
• 802.11 b/g/ n Wireless LAN with Bluetooth
Some people might argue that a desktop computer is best for playing games, but I would argue back that with the MSI Cooler Boost Technology, MSI's gaming laptops are the better choice. Armed with my Logitech G330 gaming headset and my Logitech MX Revolution rechargeable cordless gaming mouse, I can play Diablo III anytime I have free time anywhere I may be. I just need to look for a place with free WiFi connection. And when I'm home, I just hook-up the HDMI cable, then I get to play either on a 27" monitor or my 46" LCD TV.
Oh, tips for those who aren't aware... just like desktop computers which you use plugged in all the time to a wall socket outlet, I don't ever use my laptop with the batter in it. I always use it plugged into the wall outlet because I know I would be using it for hours straight. The battery of my laptop is still in the bubble wrap it came in with. I have never used it even once for the 2 years now that I've had my laptop. People who use their laptops with the battery in and always has the adapter plugged in the outlet is basically always overcharging the battery of their laptops and shortening the battery life.

So my advice, if you plan on using your laptop for hours on straight, just take out the battery from the bottom of your laptop and just use it plugged in the wall outlet the whole time.
Although I have no plans yet of replacing my current laptop, I would be on the lookout for when MSI puts out a 15.6" gaming laptop with the newest NVidia GTX 690M installed in it. So now, I'm preparing for when that time comes by setting to save up to $2,000 in the next six months time.
Hopefully, they'll have that new 15.6" laptop with the SteelSeries gaming keyboard and the NVidia GTX 690M installed in it out by Thanksgiving, and by then I would be able to get one.
So, what's it for you? Are you ready and geared up for Diablo III?

Diablo III is on-line only game. So even if your friends are at their place as long as you guys have created and shared your BattleTag IDs, you would be able to find and play with each other in game on release and the days there after.
Wake up foo... dream all you want but Diablo III is not a LANable game. Bottom line is, YOU ALL HAVE TO BE ON-LINE.

With just 8 days to go, are you set up and ready to go? Have you rigged up a new set of gear?
Are you planning to use a laptop or a PC?
I don't usually have time to play at home since I'm out most of the time so I prefer portability to power against other people's judgement. Basically, I didn't bother building a desktop computer and instead I have always used my MSI GT683. Though this is quite a nice laptop, this is not the latest laptop MSI has out there.
The latest one they have is:
Product Number: 9S7-16F311-004 ... GT60 0NC-004US
• Intel® Core™ i7-3610QM Processor
•Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium 64bit
• 15.6" Full HD Anti-reflective Display (16:9; 1920 x 1080)
•NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX670M discrete graphics (GDDR5 3GB VRAM)
• Accelerated performance with MSI TDE Technology
•Full-color programmable backlit keyboard by SteelSeries
• Killer Game Networking
• MSI Cooler Boost Technology
• Dynaudio Premium Sound Speakers with THX TruStudio PRO™
• 1.0TB Hard Drive (7200RPM; 500GB x 2 in RAID 0)
•12GB DDR3 1600MHz system memory
• DVD Super Multi
• USB 3.0 for high speed data transfer
• HDMI 1.4 (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) output
• Built-in 720p HD webcam
• Gold flashed audio jack ports with amplifier
• 802.11 b/g/ n Wireless LAN with Bluetooth
Now that Diablo III is finally here, my next project is to save up $2,000 with money I plan to earn from the RMAH and soon replace my old laptop when MSI finally releases a new laptop equipped with the newest NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX690M GPU.
With my laptop, I'm not bound to stay at home all the time whenever I'm playing Diablo III. I could always bring my laptop everywhere I go. I could play in a corner at a local library, whenever I'm at a Starbucks or some other coffee shop, at the airport or in a hotel lobby.
Armed with my Logitech MX Revolution Rechargeable Cordless Laser Mouse & my Logitech G330 Gaming Headset, I could basically play anywhere to my heart's content, and not be in a hurry to get home to a desktop computer like some other people.
For 17" laptop lovers, here are some suggestions for you:

Blizzard said that in their internal Alpha & Beta testings, a person is bound to finish the Normal difficulty at around his character leveling to 30. So by the time you finish the Normal difficulty level, you have already unlocked 2 of the 3 Passive Skills. Unlocking the 1st passive around midway of Act II of Normal difficulty and unlocking the 2nd passive somewhere around Act IV. Now, this accomplishment would either push you to go on and continue discovering new items with the harder adventures of the Nightmare difficulty level or the experience of getting to level 30 would have cowed you to spurn the Nightmare difficulty level and be contented in just farming for lower tier items in the Normal difficulty level. You would do this and go on runs and farm for better stuff until the time comes that you think you are confident enough to face the hoards of demonic forces in the Nightmare difficulty. Whatever the impact of your first play through experience would define your zest and indicate your zeal for playing the game. Whichever it is, I only have one thing to say: "Good luck! May you enjoy the game for what the developers intended it to be... fun. And may you find riches in many ways... great time playing with your friends trying to best each other out... loot... more loot... great items... money for some... but overall, just a great experience playing the 3rd installment of a game 5 years in making for that greatness that the game developers had envisioned through all the hours they had invested making what could possibly be one of the greatest RPG game ever."
Anyway, I don't think it would be that significant if you're a pro or a newbie in playing the Diablo franchise because for Diablo III it will all come down to the same thing, you should be able to beat the Normal difficulty level of the game when you're character is around level 30. The only difference mainly would be the time invested in accomplishing the deed. For pros, it would be a cinch and an investment of a few days, but for newbies, it would be a grueling time crunching investment of a few weeks to months in some cases.

I have pre-ordered the game from F.E.S. and I'll be first in line on the release day. Although I might not be playing on the midnight release (unless F.E.S. opens on midnight), I would still be playing quite early on the day of release (as early as F.E.S. decides to open), and you betcha I'm ready.
I got my MSI GT685R, my Logitech MX Revolution cordless laser mouse and my Logitech G330 gaming headset. I already theorycrafted my build using the Skill Calculator, and I have set myself on 1 particular build that is achievable when I reach level 54. I have already filed for a 4-day vacation leave... I think, I'm ready as I can be. lol!
Now, all that's left is for the game.
So how about you, what have you done? Do you think you're ready to face Diablo and his minions?

Good luck if he sticks to what you plan.
In my case, I'll be playing the Demon Hunter while my 2 brothers plays the Barbarian and the Witch Doctor...
and our sister's brother in law would either take the monk or the wizard for our party of 4.

That's why I'm asking Blizzard for clarification on this matter because Shadow Power as was discussed in the Demon Hunter video time stamped @ 2:32 - 2:47 increases the Demon Hunter's Attack Speed.
Demon Hunter video:
Again before you comment, watch the video time stamped @ 2:32
where you can clearly see the increased speed while attacking
and I quote:
"In dire times, she can embellish herself in Shadow Power. Increasing her movement and firing speed to such a degree that even the most resilient demonic opponents cannot escape her wrath."
Un-runed Shadow Power: Draw in the power of the shadows, gaining 20% of all damage done as Life for 3 seconds.
Runed as Night Bane: Gain an add'l. 4 Hatred/second while Shadow Power is active.
Runed as Blood Moon: Increases damage done as Life to 30%.
Runed as Well of Darkness: Decreases the Discipline cost to 12.
Runed as Gloom: Reduce incoming damage by 65% while Shadow Power is active.
Runed as Shadow Glide: Gain 40% bonus to movement speed while Shadow Power is active.
Now tell me, even if you read these over and over, I don't see anything about the increase in Attack Speed that supports the Blizzard claim of increased in "firing speed" in their Demon Hunter video, and I quote: "Increasing her movement and firing speed to such a degree..."
The only possible increase in speed to such a degree would be vouched by the Shadow Glide rune that gives 40% bonus to movement speed.
Again, did Blizzard made a mistake in their video or was it a grammatical error wherein the 40% gain in speed also increases the Demon Hunter's Attack Speed (a.k.a. her firing speed as stated in the video).
So for the smarties who commented above, maybe you don't know quack. Stop trolling.
Let the guys from Blizzard give a better explanation to shed the light and clarify this for me. Thanks!
