Sure, but I don't think you realize how much 292 Dexterity raises my damage as a DH. I just took a look as well and there's stuff in the price range you mentioned, but almost all blues and none of them had Dex at all. Doing the math I could buy a blue for a 100k that has a base 1000 DPS but with jack shit all worth mentioning on it. Equipping that and giving up my 292 Dex would actually drop my overall unbuffed damage by about 2500, and that's not also accounting for the 160 Str and 96 Int boost on mine. Those aren't critical for my class, but armor/resist doesn't hurt and none of the stuff in the 100k range had bonuses approaching anything like that. At level 60 people will pay in the millions for a 2-3k DPS boost, and most of the weapons with stats similar to the one I got go for 1-1.5 million. So even though it's only a difference of going from about 34k DPS to 36500 DPS at this point it's worth dropping a million for that boost. I've been searching for 2H crossbows in that overall damage range multiple times per day for a while now, you're going to have to trust me on this

Jam it back in, in the dark.

What were the approximate stats and item type of that item you sold for nearly $4? Just to give me an idea of which items I should be throwing stuff up on the RMAH instead of the gold one and expect to actually sell.

I honestly have no idea, 8 of the 10 things I put up in that range were middling at best. ironically the two actually good items I put up didn't sell. It seems to be all over the place in terms of what is actually selling for people (random shit sells, awesome shit sometimes not).

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

That's exactly what seems to happen to me on the gold auction house. Third highest DPS wand for that level currently on the auction house for a reasonable price? Doesn't sell. Some middling rare bracer with one good (but not great) stat offered for about double what it should be worth? Sold within minutes of going up.

I really hope they flesh out the auction search better. Is there any reason I can't sort by ending time for an auction? Why can't I search for a list of mods or say I want something without a specific mod? I'd also be pretty down with having a Watching list or something of that sort so I can go through a whole bunch of pages and then have a chance to compare apples to apples and see what I'm getting. How about the ability to "try on" equipment before buying it?

Am I the only person that thinks these are pretty easy additions to make to the system that would make it considerably more user-friendly?

(And, while we're at it, why can't I access the auction house from in-game. )

I was speaking idiomatically.

There are plenty of improvements that could be made to the AH, and Blizzard has acknowledged some of them. Still, whether or not we'll actually see them is anyone's guess. The official line has probably something to do with technological limitations, or something...

I had found this guy on my first character while going through Normal. Looked at what similar things were going for on the AH, and it was more than I've made through the entire game so far. Here's hoping putting that emerald will make it show up in more searches and I'll have :10bux: by the time I play again on Monday.

That seems pretty good, but honestly it's been a long time since I was 24 so I'm not sure. There does seem to be a market for mid-level on items the RMAH, but it is much smaller. I still haven't successfully sold anything else on the RMAH, despite listing decent items cheaper than anyone else, but then I see people selling middling items for $150 so I have no fucking clue. I honestly think part of it is stupid people not knowing how to properly search the AH or navigate through pages of items. I'll probably try to keep with it and keep listing items that I think should be selling along with maybe some random shit just to see if it works. If I can make literally just a couple of bucks here and there and get the game to pay for itself in a couple months or something I'll take it.

Datamined patch notes for 1.0.3

Of particular note is the fact that increased attack speed on weapons and other gear appears to be reduced by 50%.

To think that I was pleased to finally get my DPS over 40k.... well, back to Act I!

Fuck, was about to post that lol.

It's hard to say how much that will matter because if they do nerf/smooth out the difficulty in Inferno the AS% nerf may be fine.

Good shit tonight Garr and Term. Term found a Dead Man's Legacy, luckily for me it doesn't have the highly desired stats on it so I'm not too jealous. Also upgraded Garr's gear some so that was rad.

Also it's been confirmed that the patch IS hitting tomorrow, with a ridiculous 10-hour maintenance from 3am-1am Pacific, once again completely ruining my day off. We still don't know specifics outside of the general guidelines they posted on their blog a while back. We know IAS% is getting nerfed by 40-60% as posted above, but supposedly they are smoothing out Inferno difficulty, so hopefully that will balance that out. Assuming the leaked IAS values are true I'm going to drop from 43697 unbuffed damage to 37170 which isn't the end of the world, and anything they do to make Act 2-onwards not a kick in the balls will mitigate that. Luckily my weapon didn't have attack speed on it, and I already replaced my amulet with a high enough Dex where it more than made up for the loss. Both of my rings have 14% IAS as well as Dex though, getting enough Dex to completely make up for that is insanely expensive on rings so I'll just have to take the hit on that. Only other thing I have with IAS (aside from Quivers, which are not changing) is my Legendary helmet, but everything else on that is still so good that it's worth it.

Also I'm very excited that even though it's only a 2% change on average, we'll now have the ability to get level 63 items on Act 1. We did a bunch of butcher runs tonight, would have been great to potentially get better stuff ISN'T THAT RIGHT TERM

I've yet to sell anything and I've been finding some ridiculously good rares lately. No Legendaries yet.

Also has anyone else had a problem with gold spammers wanting to add you to friends lists?

I still can't believe the RMAH is actually working the way it is. People are seriously buying $200+ items in a DIABLO GAME. Once you just buy all the shit you want doesn't that kinda defeat the purpose of the game? The world has gone mad.

I'm still getting some sort of weird, "Digital purchasers must wait 3 days before accessing the RHAH." Is this because I don't have one of those location verifier things, and they don't have a good error message? I was hoping to at least be able to look at the auction house to see what it was even like.

How ya doing, buddy?

That's weird. I don't THINK you have to have an authenticator to access the RMAH auction house for purchases, but I'm not sure.

Jessy: aside from people being stupid, I'm sure that some people buy stuff with the intention of using it to farm more effectively to get better stuff to sell themselves.

Full patch notes! http://www.diablofans.com/news/1253-...l-patch-notes/

Nether Tentacle nerf suuuuuuuuucks for Demon Hunters pretty bad, especially coupled with the IAS nerf. Back to Lightning Ball I guess? Also I don't know much about Monks, but I've seen some people say that gaining the ability to equip the other 2-handed weapons is a big deal? Also MF not affecting what pops in chests is weird.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

You have to have some form of authenticator for any RMAH action, and if you want to use Paypal you have to go in and get the text messaging verification set up as well.

I'm glad for the IAS nerf, actually, it seemed kind of ridiculous that stat having that much power.

I still think the far better way for them to handle the IAS issue was to just put a cap on it, which would have worked and not completely devalued existing items (as well as items people spent real money on).

But yeah the Nether Tentacle nerf fucking suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks hard for DH. Like, really, really bad. Wound up spending 2 million on this, only dropped my unbuffed damage by like 400 but upped my HP about 5500, hopefully this helps



Also the new repair costs are obscene.

Man, the IAS nerf dropped my Wiz DPS by around 25%. I now have as much DPS as I did previously while wearing some MF gear. ugh.

All I can really say about the latest patch is that at least Blizzard seems to poop on everybody equally.

I am finding a SHITLOAD more rares though. I found a pretty goddamn good 1-handed Barb weapon I just gave to Garr in the 20 or so minutes I played of Act 3. Also I spent maybe 2 or so hours fully clearly Act 1 from about start to finish using a set of mf/gf gear (about 120 on each without NV, ~200 with 5x NV) that nerfed me pretty bad but I still only died maybe like twice on two different hardcore mobs and once on the boss. But in that 2 hours I cleared somewhere between 300k and 400k in straight Gold, and probably around 500-800k in actually sellable AH stuff. Also on top of that I found a pretty good helmet with high All Resist that I actually put up on the RMAH for like $18 or so (looked like it would have gone for around 1-1.5 million on the Gold AH). Also every time I went back to town my inventory was usually 60+% Rares and not blues. So at least in the loot regard I'm pretty happy, already back up to like 1.2 million after blowing almost everything on that armor not a few hours ago.

I was speaking idiomatically.

This is a pretty damn good guide for how to do a fairly quick runthrough of Act 1 for maximum Elite kills, etc. I just ran it and it took me about maybe 75-80 minutes using my non-MF/GF gear (which kinda sucks), and I cleared about 150k in gold/vendor trash, and it looks like maybe another 200-300k in realistically sellable items on the AH. Also on this run I found what appears to be a pretty fucking insane amulet, but to figure out a market price on it since there's nothing up quite like it, but it'll probably be in the millions. I don't want to post it here because it will make any 60 Barbarians very, very sad.

Finally finished Nightmare mode. On to Hell now for gearing up and farming. Any tips?

Also the Staff of Herding plan. Does it drop off of Normal Izual, or does it have to be another difficulty? Would having MF on help increase the chance of it dropping?

That's pretty rad; I haven't looked into it in detail or the rolls, but I know that the Stormshield is pretty much the shield to get, at least for some rolls on it.

We should totally rock that Act 1 runthrough I linked above, I've done it twice now and it's been fairly successful.
