Plan out your characters, if you're a nerd or something

Or check out the guide, full of information that's sure to be irrelevant in 2 weeks

You can also take a gander at the 1.03 patch preview

I'm going to be honest, there are are tons of people who are better at this game and better at all games than I am.  But this game is tons of fun and you have abilities that include SNAKE TO THE FACE and PUNCH A HEAD UNTIL IT BLOWS UP (this isn't a real ability name but it is something that can be done).    If you don't enjoy throwing snakes in people's faces, or punching things until they blow up, frankly I just don't know what to do with you.  Watch a cinematic intro or something.

There's also a pretty rad animated short you can watch here.
 

Oh my god you guys!!! Totally legit item dupe trick courtesy of @Rolo! Click the spoilers to download some megahertz and hack the Gibson!
yo guys you know there's an easy method for duping in D3 already, right?

check out this exploit:

1) roll up a new character -IT HAS TO BE A BARBARIAN - and GIVE HIM A UNIQUE NAME - this is important so blizzard cannot track/ban you - you cannot use the same name with different variations like dupe_01 and dupe_02, they are able to spot this and will delete your account!

2)start a new game (normal difficulty) with your character - make sure it is set to PRIVATE - blizzard disguises "spy" players into games just to catch people using this exploit, it is THAT powerful!

3) continue through the first gate and into new tristram - you'll have to fight the zombies and get inside the gate every time (difficult but possible) from there find your STASH

4) take your low quality axe and put it into the stash - THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART DUPE WILL NOT WORK IF YOU DO NOT DO THIS!!! - make sure to close the axe carefully and then WAIT 10 FULL SECONDS to make sure that lag is not a factor

5) exit the server, DELETE YOUR CHARACTER - this will free up character slots for later and make your game load faster

6) then exit the game back into Windows - then shut down your pc, then unplug your modem/router - an absolute must so that blizzard cannot track your IP location and send in their swat teams

7) wait up to one full day then re-connect everything

8) next time you log into the game you must make a NEW barbarian - start in act 1 again as in steps 1-4 and follow them exactly - YOU WILL STILL HAVE YOUR PREVIOUS LOW QUALITY AXE IN YOUR STASH!!!! ITEM DUPED

9) you can repeat these steps as often as you needed for an infinite supply of items that you can trade for mega $$$ or cash out on them in the RMAH whenever b£izz gets off their lazy ass and fixes the game


make sure not to tell anyone about this DUPE TECHNIQUE - do not post it in ANY forums where official blizzard reps might be reading - yu never know where they could be !!

Don't want to get banned your exploits, leet though they may be?
Try running through Whimesyshire a few times, here's how to get there:
The first ingredient is the Black Mushroom, an item that spawns in the Cathedral Level 1 in Act 1. Take the Waypoint to the Cathedral Garden and head inside. In a random room, you’ll find some large mushrooms sprouting up in the middle of the floor. Click them, and the first step is done.

Also in Act 1, Leoric Shinbone is right inside of Leoric’s Manor (because, naturally, there's where a skeleton king would leave his bones around). Swing inside and look for a fireplace – if you can use the logs inside, they’ll drop his shinbone. If not, reload and try again.

This ingredient brings you to Act 2. Head to the Waypoint “Path to the Oasis” and go straight down and hug the bottom wall. There’s a cove to the south with a shack, and there’s a small chance there will be a man there. Its also possible he's in the other cove, which is near the dahlgur oasis waypoint. If he’s not there, reload the game. If he is, save him from an attack event and he’ll let you into the Mysterious Cave. Inside the Mysterious Cave there is a chance that you’ll find a Mysterious Chest (not to be confused with any other named chests). If you find it, you have rainbow in a bottle. If not, reload and try again.

Head to the Bazaar in Act 2’s main city and wander over to the merchant on the bottom left named Squirt. She’ll sell you Wirt’s Bell for a pricy 100,000 gold. Small price to pay for Whimsyshire, though.

Load up Act 3 and head to the Fields of Slaughter (The Bridge of Korsikk Waypoint is the closest). Go straight up to the area and look for the Caverns of Frost – if there’s another cave in this area reload and try again. Inside there will be a typical assortment of enemies, but the Gibbering Gemstone drops off a random Rare (yellow-named) Chiltara, so keep an eye out for it since it’ll have a white name when it drops, making it easy to mistake for junk loot.

Izual in Act 4 has a chance to drop this. That’s it, no tricks, no frills, just keep killing him. We’ve seen it drop on the first try, and we’ve seen it drop on the 20th. Just get grinding.

Once you have everything head to the Artisan and right click on the recipe. If you have everything in your inventory and 50,000 more gold, click the Craft button and you’re the proud owner of the Staff of Herding... on Normal. To get the harder difficulty recipes you'll need to beat Nightmare or Hell, and then make a game at the last checkpoint in that mode. Go to the trainer near the companions and he'll sell you the recipe, which costs 200k (Nightmare) or 500k (Hell) to assemble.

The description for the staff says that “Only one bovine in all of Sanctuary could possibly have a use for this,” and that bovine’s skeleton is in Act 1. Head to The Old Ruins and go south on Old Tristram road until you see a cow’s skeleton. Approach and you’ll meet the Ghost of the Cow King (which we all know isn’t canon, since NO ONE actually killed the Cow King). He’ll throw out some horrid cow-themed puns before opening the door to…

    Patch 1.0.2b notes
    Diablo III Patch 1.0.2b - v.1.0.2.9950

    General
    When logging into Diablo III, the "Cancel" button which appears in the login checkbox will now be grayed out for 30 seconds after a Battle.net account name and password are entered. This is to reduce server load during the login process.


    Auction House
    Damaged items can now be sold on the auction house
    Once sold, damaged items will be repaired automatically when moved from the purchasing player's Completed tab to their stash
    Please note that unsold damage items will not be automatically repaired when returned to the seller's stash

    Description messages for several auction house-related errors have been added


    Mac
    Several Mac performance improvements have been made


    Bug Fixes
    General
    It is no longer possible to skip entire Acts in a multiplayer game

    Classes
    Barbarian
    Active Skills
    Fixed a bug that was allowing certain barbarian skills to continuously trigger each other's critical strikes, to the point of causing the player to crash. To address this crash, the following skill and skill rune combinations can no longer be triggered by each other's critical strikes:
    Battle Rage (Skill Rune – Bloodshed)
    Cleave (Skill Rune – Rupture and Skill Rune – Scattering Blast)
    Hammer of the Ancients (Skill Rune – Thunder Strike)
    Wrath of the Berserker (Skill Rune – Slaughter)

    Followers
    Monsters who are charmed by the Enchantress’s skill “Mass Confusion” can no longer kill event NPCs
