In d2 if you had more people in the game, the monsters/npcs hp would go up and their chances to drop magical items rose slightly as well. Did you have a full game?

Yeah, there were four of us playing. Actually, I'm not sure D2 worked that way. I know in D2, you were almost forced to group otherwise the going was so slow that you couldn't get good xp. In D3, you do not have to group anymore as the xp gained is the same grouped or not. Only the difficulty of the monsters scales up. Of course, I guess so do the drops, but the xp does not. Or so it is said.

Damn, how do you guys find that much time to play? I have two characters around 16th.

I know if you play the public servers you can level really fast, but I most play with close friends and we drag our way through the maps rather than race most of the time.

Got my wiz to 51 last night playing with my good friend. We beat Diablo on nightmare at lvl 49 and had to grind to 50 which was silly. Diablo was fun since we don't have the greatest gear. Died 3 times then got him on the 4th. Seems in nightmare and beyond magic find is important cause bosses don't drop nothin! K done rambling. Love this game.

So apparently the "Main" bosses don't drop uniques (legendaries).

You have to "hunt" champion mobs for a chance at loot.


Can't say I like that. I won't be playing D3 as much as I played D2.

What I read is the best place to get the best loot is hitting elite mobs. (mobs as in plural) You know, the huge packs of mobs that have several elites in with them.

btw, I started a Witch Doctor and I really like him, but I started a Wizzy next and I'm REALLY liking him! :)

My staff and I were talking about what to play next as far as class. Most of them want to play a Wizard, but more in the line of a battle mage style. One built w/ shield and sword and spell and not glass cannon style INT out the butt, which I see far to many of in the public games. Oh you can throw one heck of a beamy ray, but you can't take a single smack to the face.

Makes it tough for those who can actually survive.

I will be taking my Monk to 60 before switching to an alternate class.

Superb game and everyone I know is enjoying the heck out of D3.

I'm somewhere around 21 now. I love my setup. I can run into a huge mob with elites (by in, I mean burrow through the back into the middle of it) and just lay waste to them between using...

  • Shock Pulse /w Fire Bolts rune (Primary)
  • Arcane Torrent /w Disruption rune (Secondary)
  • Frost Nova /w Cold Snap rune (Defensive)
  • Wave of Force /w Impactful Wave rune (Force)
  • Magic Weapon no rune yet (Conjuration)
  • Explosive Blast no rune yet (Mastery)

Between these, I can usually freeze, stun, or knock back the mobs where they don't get to hit me often enough before I take them down. Of course, this is on the levels / quests that I'm currently playing. (Dahlgur Oasis area)

Got 2 level 60s and in to Inferno.

My Wiz can take quite a beating. I would use Force Armor but it's nerfed, so yeah. I got about 600 resistance on everything and 70% damage reduction. Not much vitality as it does no good in Inferno really anyway. Mobs will one or two shot you, so resistances are better.

I get the most lag / rubber banding when I fight bosses. Does anyone else notice this? I don't get it all the time, but it is definitely where I experience it most.

Got to 60 last night! Been owning noobs on the auction house. Buying and reselling items, inferno mode awaits aka death awaits. Anyone else hate invulnerable champion packs as much as I do?

Just made it to the end of Act 1 in Inferno. Now comes the dreadful Act 2.
