35k base damage isn't too bad.

is that your DPS?

[SoFreshSoClean]

I've started to put some items on the real money auction house.

Not really expecting anyone to buy them, but if they do.. free money bitches!!

[boiracer]

worst idea ever....

[SoFreshSoClean]

How is free money a bad idea?

[KezR33]

Its a great idea, for both Blizzard and consumers. Blizzard will make a f**k load of money off the 15% cut, and those that want to pay can pay. The biggest mistake they made was releasing D3 without the real money AH being set up, I've already grown bored of the game and won't invest any money but when it was first released I might have.

Personally I don't have the time nor the desire to farm/grind for days on end to get decent gear. It would take me weeks to earn what I can buy with an hour's wage at work. However I won't, because I'm bored of the game already. The biggest issue at the moment is everyone is putting everything up at $250 and selling nothing. In a month or so people will gradually drop their prices realise that their super leet epic gear will only go for a few bucks anyway.

The only people upset by this change (it's not really a change because you could easily buy gear in D2 anyway, now its just official and safer) are the hardcore gamers who have the time to invest hundreds of hours into the game. There's no loss there anyway, its not like these people will be so disgruntled as to never buy another Blizzard game. They're hardcore gamers, they'll be first in line to buy the next game.

lvl 41 wizard here. ACT 2 nightmare. Find it easy enough by myself but introduce someone else into the game and I suck balls.

Need to increase my damage drastically. I could probably sacrifice some life, at the moment i have 13k...

Actually here is a question for anyone that might know. What stats do you think are the most important on items for your wizard?

I have been thinking:

Intelligence

Vitality

(No Idea)

Ive been reading on the forums and they have different idea's. Leaning more towards

Intelligence

Crit Dmg and Chance

Vitality

Walking Speed

Some even suggest Lift on hit.

Thoughts?

i hope your right. and hopefully blizz spends some of its 15% on keeping the servers running and maintained.

So it then goes in your CC?

What did you have to sign up to to get into the real money section? Thing is i guess if you only put in little amounts things will sell. I read some comments on toms hardware basically saying that they dont think that the game and following is strong enough to be similar to WOW character sales as yet. I have seen some sales on here for WOW characters going for $100..... if thats what people are willing to buy some of the equipment for thats it, i am going all out on this game

It goes to your PayPal

I haven't sold anything yet, but I'll just keep lowering prices. If I make $10 in my whole life out of the game, that's $10 I've made playing videogames.

I agree that the following is not/may not ever be as big as WoW, but the attraction of real money will bring quite a few people in.

[J34]

The amount of items listed is crazy, In my opinion it would be very rare that someone finds a item you have listed and bids or buys it. Going by that I list the items very cheap just to check out the demand. I've had better luck selling items for gold. I sold a ring for 200K, don't even remember what it was maybe I should have kept it lol.

[25GTT]

Do you guys get your good stuff then from the little goblin guys? or do you find random drops better?

I got my best equipment from the goblin guys

[J34]

about half half . Act 3 always seem to be the best drops for me.

[vspecIInur]

I'm on act 4 inferno with my wizard. Pushing out 44k dps after buffs. Still uselss in act 4 even with 600+ all resistances. You get one shotted. My repair bills are 35k each time it hits yellow. I've spent 600k+ on repairs alone on inferno. Not fun...

As someone mentioned, save your money for inferno act 2 onwards. Act 3 onwards can't even barely get nep valors. Elites will smash the whole the group in a matter of secs. Melee are useless and tanks drop so fast as if they were wearing no gear. Range have the advantage with kiting and slowing down foes whilst dishing out huge aoe dps.

[-FIGJAM-]

managed to sell a legendary item for 2.7mil the other night. Happy with that, should help me come Hell time.

[vorse]

steam rolled through game till inferno act one was ok after that kept asking myself why i am still playing have since walked away from game due to 300ms lag /rage

[J34]

I'm at the same stage, im in the middle of act 1 inferno and I can't get more than 10K gold for items no matter how good they are. got a lower lvl barb and dh but playing through the same game over and over to get to the harder difficulties just feels like a chore now, I cant imagine playing through the game another 6 to 8 times to get the other chars to lvl 60.

Also did anyone find any particular act or quest that was actually fun to play?
