i've noticed blizzard takes a 15% cut for Gold in the auction house. whats the point of that? Surely if blizzard wanted gold they could just do it with one SQL Query, they own the damn game :p

I can understand them taking a cut out of the RMAH though, that is going to be a cash cow for them.

following in your footsteps somewhat ... since loh is too expensive for me im gonna focus on life steal ( about 5% total dmg dealt with my passives on life steal mode) and super fast high dps dagger ... currently bidding on a 1.54 aps 970 dps dagger with 150 vit lol once i get that ill be a bit better off ...

Life steal is pretty much useless in inferno. Hit for 10k damage and get 30 life back with bloodthirsty passive :/

An effort to curb inflation, by removing gold from the game. Unfortunately inflation is out of control.

Life steal doesn't work well in Inferno. Life steal and similar abilities are nerfed by 80% in inferno. So 5% = 1% in inferno. That's why LoH items are expensive. LoH actually works properly. 1000 LoH, you get 1000hp back every hit. Reason why I tanked Ghom so easily is not because I had amazing gear, but I had a lot of things that can hit a mob and each hit I get 1070hp back. Caltrops, shuriken cloud, gas clouds all continously hit the mob. I get like 20k hp back every second so that's how I was able to take him down easily.

It is to help remove gold from the system. I think their other intention is to help combat gold inflation once the RMAH allows the selling of gold, and funnel people into that. Can you imagine selling something for 100 mil, losing 15 mil in the process - that's like losing $30 at current black market gold prices.

Lifesteal is such a bad stat in inferno for melee, you're only really getting around 1% and 1% of 20k dps is 200. Better to just get some el cheapo blue LoH rings and grab a weapon with LoH sacrificing some dps.

Your friends are either bad or are severly undergeared. Act1/2 is a joke for monks/barbs now with the patch.

It's not a bad stat for barbs, it's actually pretty overpowered and will most likely get nerfed. If you have a barb with 25k+ no buffs, with a crit style build and at least 6% lifesteal you can roll Act 2 in full DPS gear/passives. Move to act 3 and grab some defensive passives and your still good.

Undergeared. They don't play that much so they don't have epic gear which means their resistances are pretty low compared to mine (1.1k, 1.5k with warcry). They only die when there's some sort of filthy affix combo though.

I updated some of the gear for my barb (didn't spend much because my wiz is a better investment) and act 1 still isn't a joke for him.

farq me, 80 hours into the game on barb and not one legendary drop.

FML and YOURs! :P

Fresh79 29th June 2012 12:14 PM

Got my wiz up to 35% crit chance, 230% crit damage & + 18 arcane power on crit. I cannot get it any higher without spending 10s of millions in the AH, and I'm broke.

The crits generated by meteor mean I never run out of AP and can spam the hell out of them, looks epic when meteors are just pounding the shit out of mobs, and I'm standing in the middle of them with Diamond Skin & Nova spamming every 1-2 seconds :D
