It's not that much better, in vibrant areas it doesn't affect much

They don't 'not like' it either, it'll only become a bannable offense if it turns into a hack

enrage timers are a must in D3, otherwise farming becomes to easy and i could be killing a4 mobs to get mad loot.

Hi quick ? any one else loose there friends at all after the patch update.:confused:

Where is the best place to buy D3 online? Every shop where i am has sold out and all the next stock has been pre sold....The usual sites i buy from are sold out too apparently....never had so much trouble buying a game :tongue:
I tried to buy it digitally from blizzard store but i cant because it just gives me a meaningless error. Also im not sure why its $80 for a digital version when a normal one is $60...

As well as elite/champion packs, you get a debuff that can fuck you up if you aren't geared. i.e. to prevent people from kiting around the whole dungeon.

Tested impale, same, can't see it triggering and the damage values look about right without an extra +50%. If you think it is happening for you, if you're high enough level maybe try impale + grievous wounds and really crank the crit damage.
Tested my crit damage without spray of teeth and it's definitely not triggering for me with those skills.
mmmmm 58000 damage impale crits :D

doesn't seem to work 100% of the time but it does work.

Using multishot once and seeing entire mobs + stragglers that didn't get hit the by the multishot go down is satisfying.

also hulking phasebeast with waller/jailer isn't fun ;_;

edit; works with fan of knives as well. took down an elite mob in one hit thanks to it.

Mate - Path of Exile!!!

It's in beta - $10 for a beta pass, open beta starting in a month or so. It is the D3 I was craving for! Check ti out and let me know what you think.

my pro tip for you.

sharpshooter, high attack speed weapon and nether tentacles (elemental arrow).

kite boss mob into a line, drop caltrops, smoke screen and run away. With a screen distance start firing nether tentacles at the mob, you should be able to get 5-6 out.
Because of sharpshooter all the shots will have 100% chance to crit, nether tentacles hits 2-3 times on mobs. Enjoy your 1million damage in 15 seconds :)

My DH has about 120k dmg depending on what gear due to crit damage and with this tactic i can destroy almost every mob.

gregpolk 31st May 2012 12:52 AM

Just passed 50k damage. Not true 50k damage though as that's with the 100% crit chance. Act3 hell, lvl 60.

I'm also focusing on big crits and high chance to crit Autti, using sharp shooter. Do what you say, kite back, throw in a crit. Currently toying with impale with the final rune for 100% extra crit damage. 120k damage for a crit in Act3 hell is pretty lovely. Single target though. Have also had a go with long fuse mines and lightning elemental arrow. Haven't tried tentacle yet. Kiting back onto 3 long fuse mines with a 100% crit chance is pretty spectacular. Also having a barbarian partner jump in and group up the enemies while I throw down some mines works great for some quick group clearance.

Too drunk to read much, buuut, the enrage timers I think are good, otherwise as a wizard I could seriously keep dropping hydras and just run around forever.... I still kinda can because most bosses shit is easy enough to dodge

How do u guys do so much damage, do you use 1000+ dps weapon?

I'm in act 2 inferno, spent ~250k average on each item but i can only do ~50k dps with my lvl50 wizard(and thats with glass cannon+force weapon for improved damage).
I'm gonna have to save up and upgrade the weapon next cos mine only does 749 damage.

how they have so much damage is the DH has a skill that gives them a stacking buff increasing their crit rating (which resets when they crit) so when they have a full stack of it they have 100% crith, thus the game reports their dps base on the fact that their next hit will be a crit and that is their DPS.

thats why you see DH's reporting their DPS and they usually say with or without sharpshooter
