    Reading through this thread is making me want to install Torchlight on this shitty old laptop.

    But it struggles with Diablo 2...

    *sigh*

    I guess I'll just have to wait until I (finally) get to build my gaming p.c...

    ^5. I think I'm stuck around mid 20s in Torchlight. Loading a level takes forever, and as soon as the first group of monsters shows up I lag out so hard I crash it

    It has happened to me. I go back to nightmare and run the part where you light the beacons and activate the catapults. Makes me something like 20k and I can run from there.

    What's bumming me is that I am running into mobs I cannot kill no matter what I do. They one-shot me and I'm wondering why am I suddenly so squishy.

    Oh well. I'll just quit for a couple of days until the frustration bleeds off.

    someone find me a WD knife with: 850+ dps, LoH (or a socket), 150+ int, 10+ mana regen

    somebody do this for me

  • ZoelZoel Registered User regular
    So far I've been dealing with reflect damage through 630 LoH on my bow. Working wonders for me.
    I think the idea of giant amounts of hatred regeneration + grenadier and cluster arrow sounds fun as hell

    It sounds fun; the problem is that I haven't figured out how to make grenades fun to use yet. Aiming them is a bitch and a half because of the way d3 picks targets. Even I hold down the stand button and fire, it'll still fire at the place the mob is right now and not where it's moving to, even if I'm clicking clearly off of the mob, so the majority of grenades will just fly past any mob walking toward me.

    The reduction on cluster arrow is so so, It's still a ridiculously expensive ability.

    So can any monks in a3 inferno post some of their stats? I've been running around fine, but I'm having more trouble then I'd like with it. I just don't seem to be killing fast enough, so even though I can survive well enough, its only a matter of time as a fight drags on that I'll eventually screw up and all my defensive skills will be down when I need them and die.

    From memory, I have about 42k health, 20-22k DPS (with Breath of Heaven), 525 ResAll, 4800 (or maybe 3800? It's ~61% reduction at any rate) and exatly 800 LoH. Should I switch out something like Tail Kick for seven-sided strike to give me another "oh shit" button?

    Here's the build I usually use, though I will rune Tail Kick with increased knockback+slow OR stun chance depending on the area (likely to get swarmed = knockback)

    essence burn is bad

    30% of a monster's HP is nearly always more than 60% weapon damage, and there are plenty of times when it's going to be so much more that comparing them is laughable

    personally I like The Flesh is Weak for exploding palm; makes it more useful against champs/bosses

    you have a lot of health and loh but you need more res all

    I'm at 655 without mantra of healing, 780 with it

    and even with that some stupid shit kills me really quickly (like the walls of fire in the keep basement)

    B, b, but screen clearing explosions!

    Essence Burn is actually a hold over when I used to run Sweeping Wind/Cyclone, which up until now was enough to kills something near me quick enough to keep the entire mob exploding over and over again. I guess I've just grown attached. I think I might switch over to the build I was using before, but with Flesh is Weak. I think all the bullshit in A2 scared me into using such a defense focused build.

    Let's see how this goes.

    Shut up Francis. Something about Vietnam. Horseshit.

    Rain of toads is my new jam

    I think I need a better supplement to it but the damage is really quite good and if I could get some decent life on hit I would be able to stand in place and take a few hits while giving monsters the bath of my people

  • ZoelZoel Registered User regular
    I'm trying to figure out everything you would have to not understand about the game in order to go broke from repair costs but I just can't come up with a viable scenario.

    I guess if you don't know that the auction house offers cheap upgrades to enter inferno (or just can't use it because you're simple), don't understand that you need money after buying upgrades, don't know about elective mode, don't understand that you shouldn't always be on the furthest progress act you've been, stack vit and ignore resistances, don't vendor items, well maybe.

    I guess it's feasible. I have a friend who plays barb and was severely undergeared for inferno until he was hooked up. pre gearing him it was pretty bad, died every 10 secs or so even if he just chilled back away from everything. But he kept doing it because 'that was the part of the game he was on'.

    He also has a masters degree in economics.

    my game has started glitching graphics and freezing, totally locking up my pc

    can't ctrl+alt+delete out, speakers make a loud buzzing

    pre-patch i was able to run act 1 inferno pretty consistently, now 1 in 4 champ packs kill me at least enough to reset their fucking timer

    i've spent a few hundred k gold regearing since, trying both more vit and more resist + regen, and i still get creamed enough to not be making much

    hell is trivially easy, and about as much fun as spending time on the ah, which is to say, none

    oh, and i recently turned elective mode back off for the first time since launch after dispelling my nv with a misclick
