Wizard got the worst changes overall in this patch and I play all five classes, so I'm not just qqing. So many useless wizard skills/passives didn't even get touched.

I feel like with all the nerfs to mobs and the buffs to both build damage output, and getting better and better items he has underestimated the amount of xp per hour people will be getting once they are part way thru the paragon level climb. I am willing to bet it wont take anywhere near as long as he estimated.

I think so too... Blizzard said: "The time to reach the upper Paragon levels approximates the long-term time investment required to get a level 99 character in Diablo II."
To be fair, Blizzard have been pretty far of the mark with these types of predictions in the recent past

Experience awarded by level 61-63 monsters has been increased by approximately 60%
To me this implies that monsters in inferno reward a large amount more experience than most would expect. Combine this with the NV buff for extra experience, and its quite possible that the experience will be nearly 3x more than expected.

Bots will still be the first ones to gain those lvl. since the people that has the most elite/mob kills are bots. That's assuming blizzard won't ban them before they reach 100.
Look at the Top1000 in Elite-Pack Kills... they are ALL BOTS! Blizzard doesn't care...

Am i the only one excited about SSS changes?
for a 30sec CD, its possible to get 2309% OR 1777 in a Area. For elite pack farming perhaps Fulminating assault is going to be awesome? Or 2309....so many choices :D cant wait

Blizzard doesn't care because the players don't care. When someone like Athene starts losing the race to 100 to bots, you can bet his fanbase will be vocal.

sounds like the game is going to get ALOT easier..
100 more lvl in stats. reduced HP/Dmg of elites across the board
|
The patch is defo going to the right direction but too bad i simply lost the interest to the game (mainly due to the fact that there is no easy way for me to get higher level gear from AH). But I will install the patch instantly when people found some bug/exploit after this came out :D

If my Witch Doctor can really use pets in Inferno and stand a chance I just might get back in to the game.

how long for the patch to be live? I suck at timming zones haha

None of the DH changes are appealing to me as a hardcore player

Paragon levels is a good way to introduce that "grind" factor like D2 had with its levelling.
Now introduce paragon ladders and resets to really make everyone orgasm xD
I feel like this is the patch D3 should have been released with, the game seems like it will be so much more refined and awesome to play now.
Heres to hoping lads!

Got about 5 more hours, the patch downloaded though...but no point as none of the servers are online.

So what does that mean once the expansion with act 5 comes out? Will your paragon levels be gone and everyone starts at 60 again? On the other hand, it gives even noobs like myself the chance to gain some paragon levels and beat act3.
