Diablo III: Reaper of Souls - IllegallySane - 2014-06-25
Blizzard sure seems to be hating on Wizards rather hard. Initial 30 AP on these abilities really bite. Going to need even more paragon levels to make those ability costs bearable. I lol-ed at the achievement changes. Highest bounty number getting changed from 150,000 to 10,000.
Also, is it just me or did Barbarians get insanely buffed? Would love to try the new Earthquake.

THose Demon hunter changes are more than likely going to make me not play as much for a while until we figure out a new build.
Why nerf things that aren't broken? Just because a large amount of players are using it that doesn't mean it needs to be nerfed. Why not instead buff alternatives to actually make them, oh I don't know, attractive and worth experimenting with? Jesus >_>

The only things that got nerfed were Punishment, Perfectionist, and Poison builds. Just get that full Marauders (which got buffed) and you'll never have to worry about it.
Diablo III: Reaper of Souls - Justin - 2014-06-25
Marauders got buffed? I missed that somewhere, what exactly were the changes for that?
I see the sentry hatred spender change but does that mean that they cast really fast now? Or... what's the deal here lol

Welcome to Firebats.
Most EQ runes got buffed so they actually compare to Molten Fury which was stupidly more powerful. Then they buffed it too for good measure.
Also, yay intelligent pets.

Yeah, seems like I'm going to have to reset into "Resource Reduction" since I'm already putting points into "+Max Arcane Power"

On Live, Full Marauder's bonus makes Sentry's not use their correct attack speed if you use Elemental Arrow or Chakram on your bar, or Multishot + Impale. Sentry needs to fire a regular bolt to set its correctly scaled attack speed. It doesn't affect Cluster Arrow + Multishot since there is enough cooldown between skills to shoot that bolt. Elemental Arrow and Chakram replace every bolt. Impale and Multishot can alternate without a bolt coming out. With this change, you can replace the (now 280%) Bolts with Elemental Arrow, Chakram, or Impale and still keep the correct attack speed. The default attack speed is 54 frames, and with max attack speed, it can be down to 12 frames, though typical non T&T 1H would be around 30 to 24 frames, as opposed to the optimal 2H Crossbow of 42 frames per shot.
It also might mean that 1H Crossbows and Bows may be competitive with 2H. From what I calculated myself, equally well rolled 2H beats the 1H and Bow because the attack speed doesn't scale well enough, given how little damage regular bolts did.

I was hoping for more with the Firebird set buff but I suppose that's alright. Nice buffs all around though. I especially like the Magic Missile buff.

Firebird is still on the table for a revamp. This is just a temp buff until then.
Also people found out Depth Diggers applies to signature spells as well, which is really retarded as that's essentially a 300% buff to MM with +2 MB. Looks like I'm rerolling fire if Blizz doesn't fix Arcane.

As one of the 7 people in the game that use Energy Twister, this excites me (yay for Lightning).

Imagine trying to use a Wizard's channeling spell against enemies that knockback.
I'm just glad these changes are not final. All I can say to Blizzard is (RuPaul voice) "Good luck, and DON'T pineapple it up."

So guys, know how we have problems getting enough gems and gold? Looks like account bound gold was the best idea ever now that we can enter...
THE TREASURE REALM!!
Small chance to find a portal each time at treasure goblin dies. Just look at the lower right corner to see how much gold the person is getting.

WDs have it pretty nice right now. Also helps they have many ways to gain free mana, plus Firebats would be mainly used to proc Fetishes. As for Wizards, 30 AP is pretty much crippling all but the Magic Missle + Mirror Ball builds because Wizards can't afford to stand still for too long just to waste 30 Arcane Power in a couple seconds. Might as well not use Spenders at all.
I'm excited for the intelligent pet change. My Gargantuan can finally stop looking at monsters like it's a bird watcher about 1/2 the time.

I feel like the gold amount you can obtain from the Treasure Realm will be nerfed before 2.1 hits live.
Diablo III: Reaper of Souls - Justin - 2014-06-27
That raw gold amount is most definitely going to be nerfed. He got 114 million gold from that single run. That's a bit overkill.

Should this happen and the gold amount does get nerfed hard, the question I'd like to ask is how did the devs not forsee this. I'd find it too funny if they seriously added a couple too many 0s by mistake when coding for the Treasure Realm's gold piles.

So I tried doing some public rifts since it's fairly fast with an okay group, and I can carry easily on T3 regardless on my Crusader. Two people from the same clan join my game and struggle to keep up. They call me out for running too far from them and losing the MF bonus because they both can't kill the leftover minion quill rat of an elite group, and they kick me from the game when I turned around to kill it for them. The guy also tells me I'm a noob and he can handle T5 when I call him out for being shitty and kicking me from my own Rift. He has as much toughness as me with 1/4th the DPS and no elemental or skill bonus. In fact, he had a Stone of Jordan equipped and he rerolled the elemental bonus to Attack Speed on a Crusader. How to be fucking good 101.

I've never heard anything good come from public rifts sadly.

I know, right?
The primary thing I've been doing public rifts for is to heal other people on my Monk. Sadly, sometimes there's not enough DPS to go through at a reasonable pace, but progress gets made since not everyone is geared to maintain 100% HP the whole time.
Got an ok GNK for my Monk the other day. DEX/Spirit Regen/Socket/rerolled Crit on it. Gonna wait for finalized 2.1 changes and try rolling an LTK build if Fire LTK comes up good. Maybe I can find a DEX Cindercoat one day. Rolled a STR one today for my Crusader at least. Need to get the mats to craft some Aughild's helm so I can keep the 3-piece but that might take a while since I quite like the CC-Reduction my current helm has.

Dem crazy Koreans.
They completed Tier 100 on 2 player and 3 player, and are currently working on it in 4 player.
One thing I noticed in the video is the "current HP" value caps at 999bil HP. The "Max" HP value goes on infinitely, but monsters always have 999bil "current" HP.
