    1.0.7 is supposed to be on Public Test Realms "soon".

    So far all we know is that it removes the respawn timer.

    Instead, every time you die it decreases your chance of having a legendary drop by 0.01%
    Permanently

    Bless your heart.

    Huh, $30 seems like a lot. Is that a 120M ring on the gold AH? The crit damage and average damage rolls are pretty nice, but it seems a bit weird that it'd command that much.

    average damage is deceptively good. that's probably more dps than a trifecta

    yeah what? I had trouble selling a similar ring with vit and all res for 23M, how'd that sell for 120M? Grats tho

    No disagreements, but usually it doesn't translate to hundred-million sale prices.

    It's not a 120M ring on the gold AH. I noticed that rings seem to be priced higher on the RMAH than on the Gold, so I went with RMAH for ring sales.

    So presumably you should take that $30, transfer it to 120M and then buy 2 x 60M rings to relist on the RMAH for $30 each?

    The magic of RMAH sales is that sometimes buyers don't do the translation between $/gold and end up buying something that they could have got for cheaper if they had just bought gold and bought similar on the GAH. _J_'s programming takes advantage of this behavior to make him a profit machine.

    That said, as Jars mentioned that ring is better than meets the eye. The CD is close to perfect, the CC is only 1% short of max, and that is an uncommonly good avg damage bonus (62).

    Edit: Whoa, look at all those posts between the refresh...

    So, I may have just found something kinda good...
    DiabloScreenshot030_zpsd58baa1a.jpg

    I'm not sure how to price this one, I haven't found a big money item like this in awhile. Every other trifecta amulet remotely close that I could find was going for hundreds of millions with lots of time left on the auction, and none of them had the giant magic find roll to go with it either.

    Should I start with a ridiculous buyout and slowly march it down, or what? I'm not an expert on playing the AH.

    That is yes. That is so very, very yes.

    Can't check AH right now, but I can post a price in a bit.

    Start with ridiculous buyout.

    Yeah, that's gobs and gobs of money. My best find for the night was a Echoing Fury with 1230+ DPS, an open socket, and 160 dex/120 vit. The others on the market seem to be going at around 100M, but I kinda doubt they're actually selling.

    edit: turns out they are selling, whee 95M gold after the AH cut.

    Um...wow. That's about the best amulet I've seen.

    I'd put that fucker up on RMAH for close to a max buyout.

    Blizzard, there are still a lot of things that need to be addressed with this game, but your first priority is to let me dye (vanishing dye) my legendary items. Seriously, my barb looks ridiculous in his mempo and vile ward, all while wearing shorts (Blackthorne's). He looks like such a dork - the succubi in Act 3 won't even go near him.

    I would argue that aesthetics oughtn't be Blizzard's first priority.

    Making PVE not suck is a sensible first priority.

    Then adding PVP, maybe.

    Then adding decimals to the auction house interface.

    Then they can add perty colors for you.

    Monumental, yes. Blame, no.

    You will have to let us know what you eventually get for that. I wouldn't be in any rush to cash it in (ie by dropping the price too much and too quickly). Play it slow and you will get a good return at some stage.

    I won't disagree with you (and I am not a programmer) but one would have thought that with dyes in the game already and the ability to dye everything in those slots already (except legendaries), it would be a pretty simple fix.

    Re-reading it, I realize my post wasn't transparent enough - of course this isn't really a priority. It's hopefully WAY down the list (if it's even on the list), as it should be. Doesn't mean I enjoy having a character that looks like a buffoon.

    Spoilered version:

    General

    Getting rid of the current incremental resurrection timer that increases in duration when a character dies multiple times in a row; it will be changed to the short fixed length (confirmed again).
    Tweaks to the mini-map ping for Legendaries: make the graphic last longer, and possibly changes to the sound and how the sound is categorized in the game settings.
    Separating the position of the banner and players' portals in Bastion's Keep.
    Player Versus Player
    Dueling will be added in 1.0.7, no other PVP system in this patch; some other more full-fledged PVP system will be added in a future patch.
    Fixing the Votekick so that it can't be used to pkill in hardcore mode.

    Classes

    Monk: Big meaningful changes to Monk skills: changes to runes and mobility for Dashing Strike and Lashing Tail Kick. Possibly an overhaul to the One With Everything passive, if the developers have figured out how best to do it.
    Wizard: Increasing Wizard skill synergy.
    A very high chance of other class changes, to continue the process of providing a range of skill options, as well as matching up with the stated design goals for Crowd Control.
    A possible fix for the bug that plagues Dashing Strike for Monks, and Furious Charge for Barbarians; they can get "stuck" occasionally using these skills, and nothing can be done except to leave the game.
    Fixing the sound of Overpower coming off cooldown, since it currently plays the same sound as when a legendary drops.
    Fixing the display bonuses for the Wizard skill Magic Weapon - Blood Magic so it is listed properly on the character Details sheet.
    Auction House
    Adding commas or spaces to break up long gold numbers in the Auction House and trading UI.
    Letting players search for total block %, instead of just the +block amount.

    Monsters

    Major changes for the Reflects Damage elite monster affix: Pets (including pets such as Hydra, Sentry, Witch Doctor and Demon Hunter mobile pets) will no longer reflect the damage that they do, to their masters. There may be further changes to the Reflects Damage affix, such as making it a duration-based affix that is activated by monsters like the Shielding affix, which would include a visual to show when it is active on a monster.
    Reducing Treasure Goblin health at high Monster Power levels.
    Improving monster density in Acts where it is lower.

    Game Systems

    Increasing the xp bonus at higher Monster Power levels.
    Making Monster Power work in public games. Mentioned again, and the difficulty of dealing with increased queue times with multiple Monster Power levels available for public games.
    Adjusting the Nephalem Valor system, to make it easier to run games that are 5-10 minutes long, and still have them be rewarding; also allowing the Nephalem Valor to persist across Acts.
    Changing the salvage result from a Hellfire Ring; it will likely be changed in patch 1.0.7 to regularly provide a Fiery Brimstone. In a future patch down the road, it may be changed again to provide a Key or Organ used in crafting of a Hellfire Ring.

    Bug Fixes

    Presumably many of the issues mentioned in the Known Issues List will be fixed.
    Allowing characters to drop the plans for the Staff of Herding, and the Infernal Machine - see also here.
    Removing the Victory conversation achievement criteria with Covetous Shen, so multiple achievements can once again be obtained.

    Even though I probably shouldn't even bother to pick them up, and don't know who would want/buy them, I have actually managed to sell a few rare shields recently in the 500k-750k range.

    I bought a (Legacy) Stormshield for what seemed like a decent deal at the time (but still something like 750k, which was/is a decent amount for me) like a week before we found out they were buffing the shit out of Legendaries, and then I basically stopped playing my barbarian. So I spent a bunch of gold on a piece of junk I barely used.

    I still hope they go with my idea for OWE.
