580 ARM Chest - 68 All res, 3 socket, 95 Str, 90 Dex, 90 Vit, 18% MF = sold for 18M

We totally cleaned up on ActII loot run. Was awesome. Hope that sword sells for him.

Both run very high MF/GF. Combined with valor we have 250% GF and 200% MF. So on top of all that great loot we made around 500K in gold drops.
I want you and your friends moneyz lol Nice items, when I'm lvl 60 and stuff I'm going to farm.

@Lyndon : Don't exit the game (end the sequence) after beating Diablo until everyone says they are ready. People lost a bunch of loot because you ended the sequence.

We ran Act 4 Hell. I got a belt upgrade and a few items to sell cheap on the AH, but nothing else.

It was worth the money before the patch, but now MF doesn't effect clouds, so yeah not even worth farming.

If that true this is a game for autistic children or Korean teenagers.
1. you have low magic find (your own choice, with equipment)

2. the gold auction house is part of the game. this is like bitching you dont have enough health potions, and refusing the buy them from vendors because vendors are 'forced' upon you by blizzard.


its in game gold, get over it. you're grinding money more than gold, and this is why.

Gold Auction is now live. You can buy/sell gold.

Prepare for the massive inflation that is coming. Expect to see items scaling to crazy/ier levels.

Also it appears Goblins have been nerfed.

YAHOOO ... Where's my credit card ?!?!? (Not)

What did they do to goblins?

So ... I started an inferno game and was in Halls of Agony and TMM joined me.
We met a rather nasty blue group.
He rage quit after 2 minutes and dying about 8 times.
I was using "avoid and slowly wittle them down" tactic and died once and eventually took the nasty group out.
Quit when I got to the highlands. Broke even on that little adventure.

Them TMM started a Act 4 hell game, ran for awhile and left Me and AsRock. We killed off Diablo the fastest I've ever done it in a group. Too bad TMM left.
I didn't get diddly for items but made about 35K gold after expenses.

Not a bad night, not great but fun.
AsRock gave me an amulet which helped (thank you kind sir) and I finally took the time to really look at my skills and tweaked them a lot better for chaining them together for max damage.

Wish I could get there, finally tried for some progression on my Barb, Act 3 was a bit difficult, but I just had to kite a bit more than normal. Larder put an end to that though, 40k hp, 750 resist all, and 2100 Life on Hit just aren't enough. I couldn't keep my health up dropping tornado's in his farts so I had to move up, but since he has those damn pillars and he's a proker, he refuses to be kited, he just sits there farting and moving ever so slightly. I used the slimes he spawned to top my life off, but after a bit that entire room is filled with farts and since he still refuses to step out of the center I die. I'm gonna go back and give him a few more shots and see if I can figure it out, but I'm thinking 2500 - 2600 LoH, 50khp, 1k resists might be where I need to get to down him, and thats going to be very expensive.

You apparently don't understand what Blizzard has done with the mechanics. Ignorance is bliss I guess. The game FORCES you to use the auction house. The auction house effects the drops. This is a ploy to push more revenue to Blizzard. Now they added gold to the auction house too? You have to be blind to not see where this is going.

ALL the old Diablos were set up to farm.....and beat without an auction house. This game you could play for a billion hours and never beat it due to drop rationing from the auction house. Now enters "How would you know? You never played the originals". First off its common sense. Second Cadaveca pointed the same thing out and a lot of other people I know that played the originals extensively pointed it out. I know you love Blizzard and they cannot do anything wrong but up.......its pretty obvious whats going on. You need to "get over" these are not the same play mechanics.

Hah, you think Act I is hard? try hitting an enrage timer on an act III pack. Fucking bullshit.
Before 1.0.3 they say to you "yeah enrage timer is pretty lame" then guess what? They nerfed IAS AND added MORE enrage timers. They want you to kill faster but don't want you to kill faster. This is how Blizzard treats players, they lie to you, they spit in your face and they shove a gerbil in your ass.

/rage

Oh, I was trying to mow down a shielding reflect damage desecrator electrified pack. Then I died. Because I failed to kill them within an arbitrary time window.

Gohm is a bitch, a dirty farting frustrating bitch. I have to wear my shield which puts me over 1600 AllRes and lowers DPS. He was without a doubt one the hardest bosses and is a TOTAL gear check. So yeah 1K allres required to pass.

You really should distinguish between the Gold Auction House, which Mussels talked about, and Real Money Auction House, which Mussels never mentioned but seems to be the one you're talking about.

Hmmm, I don't know. AFAIK no one has beaten Diablo 2: LoD at Hell diff. and max level yet in our local game server (i.e. not Battle.net) without buying something somewhere...We never really cared though, at least four of my friends in Diablo 3 were with me playing Diablo 2 years ago, and the others are also guildmates in WoW.

The auction house period is part of the mechanics.
