Does salvaging ilvl 61-63 blues/yellows not often net you more money when you sell the sutff on the AH?
I have this one I found,
would like to sell mine too.. worth anything? I'm not using it just stuck the gem in for the 22% life 
I've farmed act I twice now (+ played it 3 times before inferno) is this what Diablo 3 is all about framing/grinding to get something that 3% better than what ya have?
Farming wont do jack.... so what i might get 3-400k then what, decent items cost millions!
Its a real bummer as im enjoying the game albeit frustrating and all.
I've tryed again... got a little further down the cave but came up against elite spider pack again!!!
They killed me 3 more time now I have 7k left... lol 
(I'm now downloading Dungeon Siege III)

Have you ever played any of the diablo games? All they are is farming when it comes to progression.
I've farmed Act 1 50 or 60 times (which isn't a lot compared to most). It's the ONLY way you can progress unless you spend on the RMAH.
Help anyone,
I'm stuck and have been for over a week!
I'm playing inferno Act II searching for Zoltun Kulle's head underground and getting killed by spider elites every time... I just cant kill them!
I've only got 15k gold left due to dying 10+ times last 24 hrs. I've farmed Act I twice already and up graded my gear to what I have now..... but I just cant do it, they move to fast and inflict to much damage. If I was outside and could kite id be ok... I think
How do I go on..... any decent items on the AH are millions +!!!
I'm bored and annoyed now,
What are my options?!
Cheers
DPS is with SS, sad i know but i've got no moneys
It sucks but you need to just put on SS and use vault etc so you can zerg run to the head. Sometimes a spider combo is pretty much impossible to kill unless you can deal huge damage very quickly.
No D3 is my first.... Farming is boring now. So ill just leave it then. I didnt know the game was going to be like this. 159hrs ive been playing D3 id like to finish it.
Bummer!

the trouble is with D3 farming is the the loot drops are so poor. as you get further into each Act the chances of getting the bit of kit you need to improve/upgrade yourself seems akin to winning the lottery. in fact getting any decent piece of kit is a miracle. there's very little to encourage you to keep playing unless you want to play shopping simulator which switches the grind from gear to gold to buy gear.
i love these arpgs, and i have to say that the monk is hands down one of the best classes I've ever played in any game ever. it pains me to farm and get nothing time after time after time. other games in the genre got this bit right, i reckon blizzard have got this really wrong.

theyve got it wrong for the consumer but exactly right for themselves, forcing people to use the RMAH and line their own pockets
i got to the cow level earlier and omg, its funny the first time you see it!

Would agree with this. used to disagree but not now. There's absolutely nothing worth a damn on the gold AH anymore thats not either super pointless or stupidly expensive (and i don't mean a few mill per item here, i mean many tens of mill)
I genuinely don't understand the griping against the RMAH. I've never used, have no intention of using it, and can't see why I would need to use it. There's plenty of bargains to be had on the normal AH that will allow you to progress, I don't think I've spent over 150k on an item and finished act 3 inferno last night on my monk, hoping to complete act 4 tonight.
I dunno what it is, but I have gotten so completely bored with Diablo 3. I'm not really into gear hunting and would never buy stuff off the auction house for real money, so the game has turned into a mindless grindfest through the same 4 acts over and over again.
I know theres hardcore mode, but I dont think I'm hardcore material. I got as far as Act 2 on Nightmare before dying. Cant be bothered to try again now.
I hope they come up with some sort of content update soon, otherwise I might just be done with this game =/

With regards to RMAH, my approach to it is basically sell gear on Gold AH and sell gold on RMAH. Saves quite a bit of hassle.
Gold should stay relative well priced due to the 100k -> 25p rule.. (hopefully)
Also currently taken a bit of a hit on dps (down to like 25k unbuffed), in return for 5.9% life steal... Even with 800 life on hit as well... Ghom is killer....

Oy vey...
The longest I've ever played a game in one sitting is 19 hours. That was Civilisation for the Amiga. And only because my copy of the game's save function didnt work. So to complete the game I had to do it all in one long playthrough, from around 7am to 2am the following morning. I was still in my early teens at the time mind you.
Wouldnt dream of doing anything like that nowadays. Not worth the potential health risks.

well that's part of the problem, it's the fact that you have to use the AH (or rmah) to progress because the loot that drops is so awful. the end game is buying and selling - shopping.
if loot dropped more reliably and you actually found stuff to improve your character more often than very very very very rarely then it wouldn't be so bad and I wouldn't feel forced into having to use the ah (rmah). here comes the cynic in me but I very much doubt this will ever change as there's too much money to be made.

I believe Life Steal is drastically reduced as you go through the levels, reduced 20% in Nightmare, 50% in Hell and 80% in Inferno, you may already know this, but no harm throwing it out for others to read.

So your life steal is only getting you ~295 (25000 * 0.059 * 0.2) rather than the expected ~1495 (25000 * 0.059) still a nice amount when added to your LoH, but maybe less than expected.
For Ghom try and get into a corner before he lets lose the first set of gas, then stay right on the edge of the cloud until the second one, this will keep the clouds together rather than filling the room and allow you some room to stay out of the gas for a bit.

Next couple of times its alright an then annoying music taking its toe
PThink the drop % should be more like couple of notches.
Did act1 farm (imprisoned angel back and forth - 1h20 minutes all (caves,elites etc) got 29 rare ish per run and from that 1x63 (rubish) 2x62 **** and a rest ...
Also should the 5 stacks of Nephalem guaranteed 3rares from elite or something? Killed butcher 2 rares, kill couple of elite packs - NONE
