Prob going to download this tonight, anyone have any experience with running a similar spec to mine? Reckon I'll be able to get 120hz/fps running constant at max without SLI?

Easily.

I've got a single 590 and it's hardly breaking a sweat running D3 with everything maxed out so I think you'll be fine.

Is that not a little bit arrogant? He was making a observation based on an opinion. Not insulting your game skill.

Wasn't meant to be arrogant, more a "don't compare game difficulty based on a bunch of nerds who have played 24/7 since release who have a history of being great at team-based games".

I am running a 560ti 448 core, maxed out at 1920x1080 and it isn't even stressing it...

 

[orderoftheflame]

Ah, yea, worded my original question terribly.

So, say I had a 10.0 damage ritual dagger, I would be 14 damage with my poison dart? Then plus 25 int, I will be doing a total 39 damage?

You don't add the int directly. It would be +25%. So +3-4 depending on how it gets rounded.

 

[agnes]

Ok, so in short, INT and weapon damage are priority on main handed weapons for WD's?

 

[utajoker]

just watched first cut scene.

awesome

nearly shed a tear


epic when you find out who the stranger is.

I don't suppose it matters which server I'm on for this character if I'm going to play through on solo does it?

Lag. Playing on Asian server, it's not actually that bad.

 

[Strife212]

You do realise we're some of the best gamers in the world, right?

Most time in the world

You guys just using fraps to find framerate?
I didn't even think to check if it had a benchmark feature.

I didn't read it as arrogant, more defending the longevity of the game for the average gamer. Which has been a pretty consistent stance from Method in all they've done.

 

[orderoftheflame]

Mostly... But if you find a weapon that has good stats, you might sacrifice a bit of damage, and it wouldn't be worth taking a hat with 9 int over a hat with 8 and a load of other stats.

If you just want beastly damage, you'll want to go nuts on it. But you might want a bit of survivability as well, so you'd mix it up with some vitality.

Stuttering really badly.It's not FPS lag as such. My FPS Will dip to 57-57-59-60 and it'll just stutter.

Question for those with the Collector's edition. If I have already registered a key to my Battle.net account using a standard edition (shop bought, not from Blizz), am I able to add the features from the Collector's edition to that account or will I have to re-register using the CE key? What will happen with my Standard edition account? Can I transfer that to another Battle.net account?

When you add the CE key to your battle.net account the existing version will be updated to CE and when you log in you will then get the features on any new characters you create.

I had heard a rumour that a new SE key would be generated after you upgraded, however I've never seen that with any of my WoW CE's (I got the digital Cata version for release and upgraded when my CE arrived, the SE just ceased to exist in my battle.net account).

Woop! Just completed it on normal. Confused though as it says I have only played for 10hrs 59mins. I didn't rush anything so I think that might be a little off.

I've come to the conclusion that its related to latency as well. It is basically the game checking the assets to make sure you are not hacking or cheating or anything. So whenever there is more latency it affects performance more and you get this stuttering. Worse for me now than it was earlier and I have a 250ms ping now whereas earlier it was around 60.

wow, looked at my stats last night, 8 hours 30 mins (Level 16) Probably 75% through Act 2.
