Diablo III: Reaper of Souls

Wonder how long before that "Infinite Spawn" method gets the axe? That's extremely efficient and OP lol.

Pretty quick I assume. People are just botting it. That guy on the korean twitch is basically doing that. Macros and just afk woo!

Is the "exploit" really that good? Watched a video of some dude doing it and it seem like he kills maybe 5 mobs in 7-8 seconds. You can kill more than that just playing the game properly. Is there something better about these mobs?

da fk?

doing normal bounties single player until i my video card comes in and ....
-snip-
2 legendaries from 1 chest

Of course, in true Blizzard fashion one was really terrible and the other only a small upgrade.

A non-Blackthorne set piece drop?

Sweet:


Not so sweet: European servers are being DDOSed again. Happened while I was on a rift run, just after encountering an elite with thunderstorm and waller. I died and lost all 10 stacks of my pool of blessing. eurgghhhhh.
And then got disconnected as well, and I was so close to finishing the rift too.
Seriously fucking annoying.

Happening with the US servers too. Disconnected at around 90% in a rift.

In my opinion, it's only valuable for the fact that you don't have to be there.

I think I hadn't checked my afk for 4 hours so I probably missed two legendaries.

Spoils of war:


Also got two legendary plans. This is after 28 hours, so actual gameplay is more rewarding in this regard too.

Weapon Damage % Bug:

[COLOR="#0000FF"] Hi Guys,

I just wanted to pop in here and let you know that we have a potential fix in place for this internally and it is currently looking like this fix will retroactively apply to existing weapons. While we will not be able to deploy this as a hotfix, we currently expect this fix to make it to live servers with our next game patch. I obviously can't make promises as to when that patch will arrive, but it is something we are actively working on, and we hope to be able to get that deployed as soon as possible.

Thanks again for all of your reports. I know it took me a bit of time to get back to you, but your patience is greatly appreciated![/COLOR]

[COLOR="#cc8899"]I was wondering what those occasional lag spikes were. There was a patch last night (this morning?) as well, though - I remember being startled when it kicked in at first. In other news, I just got to Act II. Hurray!

Also, General Discussion in-game is apparently full off butts. Tons of spoilers dropped on me before I even realized I was in the chat...[/COLOR]

Battlefields of Eternity, there is an event that can spawn which is related to the Time Prisons. It spawns on the west or north side of the map, down a stairway. After opening the prison, lure Emikdeva away. You may need to destroy the pillars that fall if they trap him. Kill any minions that follow you. He chases pretty hard so you'll either have to run fast enough to be able to TP away, or enter a cave and TP back to the Waypoint. Return to the event area and the monsters will continue to spawn until Emikeva dies, which he won't because you lured him away. The monsters spawn at an okay rate. If you have Firewalkers, you can easily just stand there doing nothing and kill things on at least Normal difficulty. My Demon Hunter is capable of doing this on Torment I. Be aware that if you are set to Away for over 10 minutes or so, you will automatically disconnect, so check on it every few minutes by pushing a skill key, or unethically automate the process, which I believe is a bannable offense.

I estimate the drop rate to be about 1 legendary every hour and a half to two hours; this includes my Legacy Puzzle Ring, so I would expect it to be significantly worse without it. This is no better than average gameplay, and likely worse. The EXP rate is supposedly good. Gold rate is pretty terrible, even after selling every rare and blue. I've made a total of 2m in 30 hours. Either case, the effectiveness is in the effort, or there lack of. I have been busy with my Finals the past two days and noticed this exploit, so I've taken advantage of it.

• Automated gameplay is bannable
  
• Requires constant monitoring if you're not automating
  
• Requires gear that can kill without active input (Firewalkers, Deathwatch Mantle, Pox Faulds, Schaefer's Hammer, etc) or similar skills (Zombie Dogs)
  
• Effortless EXP
  
• Gold income is poor
  
• Legendary droprate is lower than average gameplay
  
• In terms of automation, typical character's gear should break after around 6 hours, after which you will die and disconnect. There's a legendary that circumvents this, ironically.

THE DARK WANDERER IS DIABLO.

Fix for elemental damage weapons and %damage on weapons coming next patch, likely to be retroactive.

Got a new video card woo! Loading so well with smooth graphics.
Enter my first rift of the day and.... this happens

I instantly loaded too. Also instantly died haha



well.. why thanks kidala
rolled 490 vit haha my toughness is dropping =(

Is it just me or are the servers still really laggy?

I've been rubberbanding and having general lag spikes since last week...

I hate this game. Not only did it turn out to be a Blackthorne but it rolled with completely pomegranate stats.

It could be worse. It could have rolled 1028 max damage.
I know this is probably karmic and pomegranate, but legendaries shouldn't be able to roll such low damage.

Got some cool new equips:

 Spoiler

The extra 2 magic missiles are surprisingly strong, I probably do more damage with Magic Missile now than I do with Frozen Orb, and considering that I have like 60% extra Arcane Orb damage, that's saying something.

I've gotten TWO Mirrorballs, and each of them only had ONE extra missile. Bah.

I got 2 in a row from Kadala (after spending about 300 shards on Orbs alone and getting squat), both had 2 extra

I hate you, i've spent atleast 1k shards if not more trying to get one and the only one i got was 1 extra ;_;

I've gotten a Triumvirate from Kadala, but no Mirrorball. I recently found the plans for Mark of the Magi, but why would I want to waste time and money on a useless two-handed weapon? :/

My brother runs a fire spec with magic missle mirror ball. Can play 1 handed doing 15m + on crits . So easy haha

Looks like we have an official list of what legendaries are Torment-only.
