Can you explain the %damage fix please? Can't see things at work :(
Click to expand...

Currently the %dmg mod on weapons only applies to the 'black' damage on the weapon, not any elemental damage. This means non black weapons are not getting the full benefit of the %dmg mod.

The fix will be to apply the %dmg after the elemental damage on the weapon has been factored.

By elemental damage we mean the one that says something like 1003-1368 arcane damage for example
 
Finally, after many days farming act 1 I got the Ring of Royal Grandeur to drop! that's just boosted my elite damage up to 42% and fire damage is around 100%

I think ill gamble on cinder coats and andy's helms now to try and upgrade the ones I have. Wouldn't mind some Tal's legs too for the 4 set bonus.

T4 farming doesn't seem a problem now and things are dying at a decent speed.

People keep banging on about Offline Mode. Offline Mode in D2 was barely touched. Open Bnet was full of hackers and PKers. Even back then it was all about playing online.

What they need is a better community that stops DDOSing at every opportunity.

Yes you've successfully argued against half of the point i was making. Good work. Now address the rest of it.

Wait, you were being serious? Ok.

I'm pretty sure it's upto you to prove that offline mode was barely touched on a game released in 2000 with an offline and LAN mode, Blizz have said the majority of people play D3 solo, so I'd like to see evidence that when probably half the population had dial-up, and the rest had nothing that pretty much everyone played online.

So what if online had people cheating. There's no serious PvP in D3, so why do you care if some people cheat to get items? How does that affect your enjoyment of the game when you can simply choose not to play with these people.
 
Again you've completely skipped the main point of my post. The replay-ability of D3 AND D2, which was impossible in offline mode on D2 as the missions were not repeatable in it's linear save pattern.

Also, i dont care that it was full of hackers, because neither I or anybody i knew played on it. The point was to prove how little Blizzard care about it, and how little suited Open Bnet was for the type of game we're playing now.

You can't get Tals legs though, only helm, chest and offhand on top of the amulet/belt you have already.

Can't really run 4 PC tals without sacrificing your Mirrorball or Cindercoat/Andys slot :(

I've still got no idea what the point you're trying to make is then.

dropped a nice leg amulet that has 10% crit chance, int vit and all resist, should I drop vit or all res for crit dmg boost ? I have 300k hp and 1500 all resist currently.

Then it's pretty straight forward to drop the all res, 1500 should put you well over the softcap.
 
As an aside, what are you Wizards playing now? I feel like my Frost Orb build has lost potency. Might just be me but it feels off. I'm at 890k DPS so should i be looking at something else now?

Yes, but no one is asking for the same offline mode we had in D2 (which I still disagree with it being barely touched), that's why I don't understand your point, because you seem to be arguing a point that no one is making.

We just want the game exactly how it is now, without having to connect to their servers. D2 being linear offline has nothing to do with what people are asking for, open battlenet has nothing to do with what people are asking for.

If you're trying to argue that offline mode won't happen, I agree and I'm pretty sure everyone asking for offline mode also agrees, but that doesn't mean that we can't be annoyed that what is for most people (according to Blizz) a single player game can't be played offline, and can only be played with down times and character killing lag. Offline mode is likely one of the reasons they're adding ladders, so that they have an excuse to keep it online only like they did with the RMAH.

If you actually made a point rather than trying to be a dick, I might be able to address it. Why would the game not have any replay ability if you had an offline mode that was admittedly properly written rather than just shoved in to appease people unhappy with the crap servers?
