    speedtest says I'm slower than 80% others, i pay for 10 meg advertised, I pay $56 month. I have numerous short flickers daily that send me away if you were with me on battle.net. (sometimes due to the Americas server, yes, but it's on my end most of the time) It won't be too hard to beat Cable One in the rural Texas panhandle, but I want some mega-reliable shit for this game mode obviously. I'd pay a fair amount more if needed, [I know my -entire- cost of living goes up leaving a shit hole like Pampa] and I'm willing to do that hopefully inside of 2012. Moreover, I'm eager to do it. So, gimme internet advice for hc d3, plz + thx. Contiguous 48 states, whatever; I don't care how gnarly your MIT campus connection is.. need something I can more easily attain.



    I could get into more details on the current abysmal internet situation, but doesn't matter.. only the future destination. It may be comical, but it's also fucking sad the downtime I've had on my end since I got my copy of D3.
    I'd say just find any place you can get fiber optic net. My parents love their verizon fios, my dad uses it to stream my directv's nfl sunday ticket online stuff and it's better than it looks here on my sattelite tv cuz my directv receiver isn't hd so it's only in 480p.

    No I'm not dead and I'm not sure how you had an issue with champs with 6k DPS, I have 0 issue with anything unless its some retarded bullshit as noted above.

    Started HC on...Friday I guess and I'm nearing Rakanoth. He's really the first boss that I've been worried due to his teleport move. Just a stat check if you guys don't mind. Haven't gone out of my way to farm/level so 30 is just from normally clearing areas/getting books/etc.

    Absolutely fine for finishing normal and starting nightmare.

    Yay for being done with my move and having internet again!

    Got my wiz from lvl 41-44, HP at 18k and 1.1k DPS. Though, for the first time in a while, mobs are giving me a fight. Never anything serious for trash mobs, but if/when I finish a big engagement I'll have less HP than it seems like I should. Some champ packs have been a pain. I think a lot of it has to do with swapping out arcane orb for venom rune'd hydra. Not as much damage in big chunks, but lots more damage consistently.

    If I can get enough grinding/farming done tomorrow, I'm gonna finish A2. I've heard 20k HP is the minimum for Belial, so I'm in no rush for that fight just yet.

    20k should be more then sufficient. I've always gone in with 16-18 and never dropped below 50%.. its all about avoiding the 4k damage poison pits tho. But if you don't feel comfortable, more vitality never hurts.

  13. #553

    Yeah last time I fought Belial NM I think the only damage I took was from his breath attack. Once you learn his attack pattern he's pretty easy. As a wiz you also have energy armor which brings your mitigation up to ridiculous amounts and diamond skin in a pinch.

    Into hell finally. level 51. I CAN NOT STAND CORRUPTED ANGELS. I had two rare and 1 pack of champions of them all within the first 30 seconds off a portal, ended having to kite forever as barb and wait til I could WotB/Earthquake combo them down. That doesn't even work well cause they're always flying around

    Yeah, Verizon Fios would be nice; obviously it's not available in this area, but something like that I will definitely seek out when moving. thanks ;o

    So I just had a great little discussion / brief troubleshoot with a random local CableOne tech about the last hour. (called and scheduled after my internet dropped and killed Asteria, hehe) I've had at least 3 other techs visit over my 23 months living this apartment, but none have been as level-headed and helpful to talk to. Most just hook up and don't talk and won't open and will say okay you're good now and leave hurriedly.

    Anyway, yeah, obvious limitations of ISPs and competitiveness of connections due to where I live, BUT.. I think he did help me substantially stabilize my connection. First login on my refurbished connection will be later today ~

    The issues of signal degradation interior to my old ass building and apartment walls could not be troubleshot. And I'll have to make our property manager (probably have to get with Caprock (apartments) corporate in Phoenix or some shit) get with his CableOne manager to get permission and possibly a third-party out here to check inside of 32yr old sheetrock and further examine the lines.

    He removed and re-did some shit outside.. and we removed a splitter interior to my wall connections that we dug out.. didn't know that was back there.

    He also showed me all the aspects of the signal they examine on his laptop, and I'm much closer to acceptable range now. I was previously out of bound on the low end on my downstream sumfin sumfin. and then barely on the edge of the bound for my downstream DNS. those values are better now (dunno shit bout internet service technicalities but he talked a fair amount to me about it)

    It's still not an ideal connection even for lolcablemodem connection, but better. I'm gonna go [uselessly and with great futility I imagine] talk to my apartment manager lady bitch. Don't think she could get a GED today (or any day possibly) if she was handed the test.





    /ponder ...I think only Plow can accurately envision living in the rural high plains.

    I wasn't smart and should have reloaded the game since there was a pack of Jailer, Frozen, Arcane wretched mothers blocking my path. THought I was good enough but their puke orbs of frozen death were too much
