    What about rubes?

    Will there be any rubes in the game?

    I don't know, I bet you could build a sort of short range spell WD with the right runes/passives/equipment. Firebats and plague frogs, some defense stuff.

    One of the zombie dog runes lets them take 70% of your damage for you, for example.

    I hope that stacks with the 'spells cost 50/50 health/mana' passive as well.

    truly ridiculous fun

    Played a little bit of monk earlier, it's the last class I hadn't gotten to. My current favorite is still Wizard. I think Barbarian is next, Blizzard really nailed the punchy, bloody, kinetic feel of it. After that, it depends on how good a fixed-up Demon Hunter is. If they're fixed up good, I might even like them over Barb. Monk will be good for multiplayer/support shenanigans. Witch Doctor is good too, just not my fave. I think their spells need balancing so that Frogs isn't so dominant, but the skill calculator looks different from the beta so I guess that will happen at some point.

    i want every class to have something that can kill on its own by like, spreading

    like the white exploding palm thing that spreads fire damage and then those who catch on fire can explode as well

    or the haunt rune for witch doctor where when the spirits kill someone they jump to the next nearest guy

    There are runes that add this to a fair amount of skills. I know I saw it on a Cleave rune.

    Other than runes I mean.
    Will plague toads ever be more than 3 toads?

    While I don't miss the cookie cutter aspect of investing in skills, I do sorta miss seeing them grow.
    Like when I took inferno all the way to 30(20?) with one of my sorceresses so that it went off screen.

    stuff like range or number of projectiles doesn't increase aside from runestone stuff, as far as I can tell.
    And I think you're thinking of Firewall in D2, and the max skillpoints you could put into a spell was 20, but they could go higher than that after you factored in + to skills items.

    No I mean inferno, the flame thrower spell.

    If you cap it out, it goes off screen.

    haunt normally does that, the rune just gets the spirits to hang out for awhile waiting for a new guy to come along.

    the demon hunter's damage buff spreads if you rune it

    so, yeah i guess they need some changes because that's way more boring than exploding/burning guys

    I believe they intended for people to quit fast, what with them mostly just wanting to see if your hardware was compatible.

    I have to turn down textures, but really at the camera distance that the game is played at, I don't even notice.

    I wish I could set them to be high for the character select screen though.
    Nev, tell them I said that please.

    I have a silly question, but last night I was having issues with the chat system. I was also drinking, so that might have played a part in it.

    When you're in a public game how do you use the /say command in chat? I tried /say...it didn't work. It went to /party chat. I could do whisper, party, and there was group I think, but no /say.

    Also, more people need to friend me or whatever because playing in groups is fun.

    M rating makes sense, the game is kinda bloody.

    And online play is going to be filled with the worst kind of hatespeech.

    /g is for /game. That will talk to everyone in your current game. /p is party and is people you have grouped up with intentionally, not pubbies that join your game.

    also you can hit tab when you bring up a message box and it'll cycle through all your available channels.

    I just find this whole "lord of terror coming to eat me thing" a little contrived, you know?

    Unfortunately they didn't have time to finish him, so they're just going to use the Ragnaros model.
