Diablo III Random Question Thread I : Clever Title

[arus2001]

The way i understood how they got a few of them was.. getting your information from other Diablo Fansites. So if you use the same Password for your Account as you do for popular Diablo sites, or you're just a 1-2 Password kinda guy, Thats probably where it started.

Or it could be something different ;o

I personally took no part in other fan sites, and even if I did peek at something somewhere, I'd never registered. Even here, my handle/password varies from my old game one. I still say something funky is going on on Blizzard's end, because I can also pull up like 9 months of email to prove no attempts to phish me, either. Enter a certain someone to tell us it's all our fault, Blizz is perfect, etc..

[izembo]

do you have an authenticator?

[Dryr]

gold drops from mobs seem to have tripled since the update that removed gold from barrels. I would say sell everything you can worth IRL $$ before you take a break, then come back and buy stuff on the gold AH or just solo farm it when new stuff comes out.

This game seems ripe for expansion possibilities and level cap increases...

[miokomioko]

Just about every damn character seems to be written just to open up possible expansion stories/locales. Shen and the jewel he's after, Lyndon and Kingsport, Eirena and her missing sisters, the goblin lore, Leah, etc. etc. etc.

Main problems how you manage to top the Prime Evil.

[Raldo]

What? The whole ending of the game begs for continuation. You don't just drop that shit off a cliff and expect it to never return.

I'm sure whatever route they wanted to take, they could brew some prime evil into it. Who knows where that fell to.

I know the ending scene was cloudy, but you did see what they did there at the end, right?

[Lordender]

Imperius and Adria will be dealt with in an expansion, I wouldn't put it past Metzen to have us "Redeem" Leah because he's a redemption whore. I also wouldn't be surprised if Belial really wasn't Belial and he's still out there somewhere.

There is still a lot about Adria that could turn her into a very powerful foe.

Adria led the coven with Maghda, she left because Adria followed Diablo, Maghda followed Belial, both didn't get along due to different ideals

I'm pretty sure in Diablo 1 Adria was a blind old hag, in D3 she is "well preserved" as if she has not aged a day, an act II a noble man brings this up when he questions how she has not aged. We also know she isn't blind in D3.

With Maghda dead now, Adria can become the true leader of the Coven and lead it under Diablo's banner.
Imperius now butthurt over the humans will probably be somewhere planning to "cleanse" the humans.

[Raldo]

I wasn't a huge story buff for D1, so it wouldn't surprise me that I'd missed this but... Adria was blind in D1? She sold books 'n' shit, you'd think that would make things rather difficult.

Demonic incantations in braille! Get yer demonic incantations in braille!

I know it's kind of hard to see, but Adria is D1 didn't strike me as a bent-over, blind old hag. She actually looks pretty youthful. She's definitely expansion material though, and I'm sure she'll have a way to doing Diablo's work again.

However, I don't see Imperius trying to do anything of that sort. Heaven's been through enough and seeing more of it would seem... forced.

How much Diablo money have you guys made in total? Just off the RMAH, no third party sites. Curious as I remember someone posting a picture of like $1500 in sales in 1 day. My total is around $425.

There's also the Prophet and the Archangel that went missing.

evil never dies, it just sleeps.

jokes aside, the main badguys never really die. imperius killed diablo once already in the anime they released before the game came out, so yeah, they can pretty much bring back all of them

There's also the Prophet and the Archangel that went missing.

iirc it turned out the prophet was tyrial

[Raldo]

The scroll of fate angel (I-name, I think?) said the prophet had long ago either died or gone missing, but I don't recall it ever being attributed to Tyrael.

[Plow]

cash > godly items >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> good items >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> gold in that order.

I'm so torn on which is actually tops between cash vs godly items. Who knows what gold prices will be like when it hits the ah (spammers are advertising $3/mil, but items are going at values that imply more like $10/mil). I'm definitely selling it soon, but I'm going to feel pretty stupid if I get $250 for that xbow I got only to find a month later that I could have sold it for $1000 worth of gold. But, at the same time, crit damage could get nerfed, or level cap increases, or even just an expansion that brings like i65 gear in could utterly and completely fuck me if I held on to it, and I'm not a banker so I'm going to go ahead and take my bigass profit for virtually nothing rather than risk getting nothing because of being greedy.

[dabis]

Given the rate at which botters are bringing gold into the game, I would guess once gold sales go live, gold will sell for the minimum possible ($2.50/mil) simply because of how much of an excess there is already in the market. When 1 botter can get over 1billion gold in 3-4 weeks, you gotta imagine gold prices will not raise above minimum rates after they set gold sales up on RMAH.

[arus2001]

There's also the Prophet and the Archangel that went missing.

Think the angel wound up being a rare spawn within one of the sub-areas in A4. At least I'm pretty sure I once killed a yellow corrupted angel named Malphael or whatever.

Edit: And I was joking with Krabknuckle last night, but I thought once they buff legendaries, it'd be nice if you got one randomly for doing a full act clear. Not just ilvl appropriate, but like doing A1 Inferno could give you some A1 Normal legendary. But otherwise it'd just have that pool to draw from.

[miokomioko]

I believe the arcangel of wisdom Malthael's whereabouts are still unknown (outside of assuming he's endlessly wandering around Pandemonium somewhere) and has not made any appearances in any actual games. When the angels decided to vote on the fate of Sanctuary, he basically face-palmed and left out of sheer disappointment. Tyrael eventually replaces him as the aspect of wisdom, but it's an odd situation since Malthael not actually dying (which would have created a new arcangel replacement) left a gap in the Angiris Counsel, lacking wisdom. However, did anyone even replace Tyrael as the aspect of justice? If that gap is created, that just puts humans in a shitty situation again.

Either way, just about every damn storyline and character in this game was left wide open. There was little to no closure whatsoever (really annoying). There's really no telling what's next, but I would make the assumption that it's going to be some sort of rescue mission for Leah.

[arus2001]

I'd be happy with saving Leah, really. Maybe it's just her VA, but she grew on me.

I hit 60 yesterday. I'm at 2.50 after fee so far...

[Minnich]

How hard is Azmodan in Inferno? I got access to Heart of the Sin to farm, but if I change quests I will lose access to it, right? Seems the only way to keep it is to advance in the quest line, I believe. My DH has 600-700 all resists, with 26k DPS. Or around low 600 all resists with 50k DPS w/out the shield and a 2h XBow. This sufficient to kill Azmodan?
