Gergenheimer and Elendiro: Thanks for two more posts that completely, absolutely, 100% miss the point of this thread. Maybe you can create another thread to post your random "L2P noobs" stuff around? That'd be great.
@Shinna: So, wizard's answer to CC is Teleport. Sweet, because I always have Teleport in any of my specs. Unfortunately, it has 15s cooldown. And we're not talking about a pack that has 1 CC ability but overly annoying packs that come with 2-3 CC abilities.
(@Elendiro: You can't TP out of Frozen, but you can see it and TP away in time. Well, sometimes, if there's a free spot on the ground nearby.)
I guess I'm leaving this thread. Some of us were interested in a serious discussion about game mechanics that are designed a bit unfortunate, but the last couple of dozen posts really made me sad as some players felt the need to throw some "L2P" stuff in here instead of reading what this thread is all about. Sigh.
I didn't miss the point of the thread - I was speaking the truth and the truth is: claiming that a game mechanic is "wrong" or "broken" is an OPINION. Plenty of people play this game without experiencing the chronic problems you and others are describing, because we have adapted our builds/gear/play style to manage the spikes in difficulty that occur from certain combinations of monster affixes. If adapting your builds and/or play style is unacceptable to you, then play on a lower difficulty or stop playing the game - but don't ask the developers to "fix" something that not every player agrees is "broken". From what I've read on here, the people who claim that the CC mechanics are broken show no willingness to adapt to the game, but rather think the game should be changed to suit them.

Never did i say that i exploited, so read my post again, the only "exploit" i remember doing is Mira runs, which was:
A simple game created on max difficulty on the quest to kill blacksmiths wife, kill mira, rinse and repeat...
It gave a butt load of xp and i legitimately thought it was ok by blizz, how could i know i was exploiting? then not even a week later they nerfed it.
Now should i be banned for doing something in-game that i have no clue it's wrong? ofc not, but if blizzard had admited that mira runs were bugged and giving too much xp and said that we can't spam it and i still did it, then y ofc i should be banned.
My point is, blizzard must be clearer with in-game bugs and on what we can and can't do.

Ignore cheats and do your best without them, i'm at legit solo 56 atm, be proud of your acomplishments using 0 fag programs like thud etc...
Maybe someday blizz will ban them all and we will be left standing like the pros we are!

As far as PTR goes we can extract powers from pre 2.3 items, i guess that's how it'll go live.

But with a stupid pet or banner reward they would do it... sad indeed...

Remove cindercoat and use tal'rashas chest which has the extra affixes comparing to cinder,
Get armor or elite reduction on said chest,
Get another delsere piece instead of your tal pants/head so you have the 4pc delsere bonus with rorg,
Replace convention of the elements with an halo of arlyse,
and finally learn to dodge all the shit that's thrown at you :P.
Progress is an ongoing process that you will learn, i ranked #337 on s1, #145 on s2 and currently rank #58 on ns solo wiz leaderboards,
Survival most of the times is knowing when to skip and when to fight as well as always push forward, never go back even if pushed.

PTR or Live, you should feel bad for the lack of "professionalism" and arrogant attitude, most of your videos are known information by vet players so they are useless for us anyway, but misleading the casuals that follow your videos and still saying that you couldn't care less about them really makes you look bad.
