I rolled through Act I, got raped so hard in Act 2, spend one million on AH, still got raped in Act 2. Fucking....shit...fuck.

Budget 1m~ per piece of equipment and you've made a start. The amount you need to really be successful in A2 is absurd compared to previous acts, though you can get away with a really good weapon and olympic gymnast kiting skills if you're wiz/dh.

Don't need 1mil per equipment... Just 100-200k a piece on intelligent choices.

This is for barbarian, other classes don't need anything close to that

assuming you can find them.
I swear, I havent found shoulders below 700k as a viable upgrade from mine (currently don't have allres). I try to budget 200-500k or so per piece.

I'm more or less saving up for a new weapon, I'm at 34k dps (1180 .9 2h with 20% speed), but I feel that is just too low, stuff isn't being killed fast enough. Belial is a bitch cause adds just don't die fast enough while dealing with Belial smacking me. Also health globes don't drop enough to keep me topped off, lol.

I think I almost made it to P3 once, but yeah... It's a struggle cause I'm always out of AP and seeker / attunement magic missles just don't deal enough damage.

I doubt ill ever get to the point that mobs hit for <35% of my life total to the point that prismatic armor becomes viable =\
Then again, I probably would want to keep force armor for phase 3.

You know there's a magic missile upgrade that makes them do more damage, right? Charged Blast is 143%, which isn't far off from AO - spammability makes it the best for bosses imo.

I don't understand the fascination with seeker in PvE where nothing attempts to dodge.


It's cause seeker turns corners, and can be used as a way to let you know you are about to walk into enemies.

How many corners are there when fighting an Act boss like Belial, as he mentioned?

Hydra does the same thing about enemy sighting btw

I know, that was my post, which was responding to the guy talking about having trouble with Belial.

As for general PvE, I stand by my point - the amount of time you don't have a clear shot at something that's chasing you is incredibly slim compared to the damage you'd gain by using charged blast.

What about split missiles on bosses? They do even more damage than charged on large targets.

Siegebreaker is easy, only died once when I was firing at him offscreen and didn't see him doing the animation for the charge.

Huh... I though they actually fixed this since I couldn't get into act 4 inferno anymore. If I knew I would have just skipped the keeps.

Im really struggling with Inferno, i mean Wow. I had to switch from my AO build to blizz / venom hydra because i just cant kite enough or do enough damage, even with this build i cant, but it makes it alot easier.

Ive also started using hydra/blizz because you dont need IAS or Crit, which is cheaper xD.

I need some help optimising my character, build, places to farm, the whole lot, i'll post my info and hopefully you can point me in a good direction on where to farm and what to focus on getting stats wise.

Build: Venom hydra, Blizzard (20ap), frost nova shatter, teleport (wormhole), Magic weapon (+15%), Energy / Force armor. Passives: Blur, Glass Cannon, Cold blooded

Stats: 20K hp, 20K DPS, 4.3k Armor, +300 All res. (1180 int, 680 vit, 300 dex, 80 str.)

Im not sure why im struggling so much, Its really difficult for me to kill any elite pack in act 1 Inf. Should i be farming hell for now? or what, im very confused as to where to start farming.

As for my build, any tweaks u could recommend? Perhaps teleport / fracture instead..

Thanks guys

I just sold a legendary for 300k and realised that in order to upgrade my gear, I needed about 200-250k Minimum for any marginal upgrade. I ended up getting a helm with 600 armor, +59 all res, 80 int / vit and other shit, for 200k. I thought i'd be able to get alot more out of my money lol. Even a 150 upgrade on my 1k dps weapon (1.15k) was 250k. Amazing.

Are you sure you're controlling properly? I don't know anything about wizards but your DPS and everything else should be good, maybe you just aren't using an optimal build? The elites in act 1 really aren't that tough either, try looking at your skills and thinking everything over. However I think your hp is a little bit low

Does anyone know how the loot from a resplendent chest stacks up versus a boss? I've been farming some chests in act 3 and also killing siegebreaker and some elites for about 6 hours today. It feels to me like I'm more likely to get rares from the bosses/elites than the chests. Is this true or am I deluding myself that the route that requires work gives the better loot?

step by step. start farming weak blue elites in inferno a1 once you have the fear for it.
go on with butcher runs as soon as you can do it (5 nepha --> warden --> butcher)
if you can do that without ANY problems, go ahead in a2 (elites in a2 are harder than the butcher himself)
same goes for a3 - this is where i am right now. i can kill belial solo without problems, any elite groups without problems in a2 - but a3 is a whole different level.

if you have trouble in a1 inferno for now, its normal. but prepair yourself to have the same kind of experience when u try yourself in a2.


I just sold a legendary for 300k and realised that in order to upgrade my gear, I needed about 200-250k Minimum for any marginal upgrade. I ended up getting a helm with 600 armor, +59 all res, 80 int / vit and other shit, for 200k. i thought i would get a lot more out of it


you probably made the best deal there ever was in d3 with that helmet. wtf man, are the prices so much lower on US?



€: what about all these "do random trick A to have an easy loot" guys here - if there was an easy way to maphack in sc2 and you were 100% sure to not get caught - would u use it as well?
i have too much honor to play like that, to say it like the templar does.

I'm playing this game co-op with my 66 year old mom. We can't get past Inferno SK. Some of it is play skill, but a lot is gear.

Should we just do Old Ruins runs or is there somewhere in Hell that would do better? We seem to be getting too many items less than level 60 in Inferno. However, if we go back to Hell we won't be getting Inferno crafting mats and I think once 1.0.3 goes live that crafting might be an option again.

We also don't have the gold to go AH shopping to fix our situation either.

Any advice would be nice.....

I've been doing Siegebreaker runs today (check for depths lvl 1 chest, if its there get stacks, do the chest and siegebreaker) and I thought the same. Siegebreaker dropped 3-5 rares while the chest was more between 0-3.

Where have you been grabbing your rare packs from we're doing basically the same run. I've just been going to the fields of strife looking for the caverns of frost to get another chest and there are usually 2 chests there so I end up with around 4 stacks of NV for siegebreaker.

OMG act 2

Butcher runs are ezpz but there's nowhere I can farm in act 2 that I know of/can handle. Sigh
