I think I'm halfway through Act 2 and I'm starting to really enjoy my Witch Doctor

I typically run up to a pack of monsters and Soul Harvest to get Int stacks up then cast Grasp of Dead on them then pew pew away with Dire Bats

Gargantuan seems to be a decent tank and I use Explosive Toads because I'm too lazy to target stuff. I'm also running the Gruesome Feast passive. so much Int stacking with my Witch Doctor

Yeah, but they must stand still and channel to do it, which makes them vulnerable. Kind of fun. You can see they wiped

I must admit I'm kinda glad I have exams so I don't have to put up with all these issues...so what's the verdict so far guys? Is it as good as it's been hyped up to be?


It's definitely not going to match the hype. No game hyped up to be, "game of the decade," ever will. But it is immensely fun. Also, the server issues are probably getting a bit over-exaggerated. Aside from when the server's went down earlier this evening for awhile and the challenge of getting in when the servers first opened at 12AM PDT the game has been pretty stable for lots of players (if not most players).

So how is someone like Barbarian supposed to even have a chance to solo against inferno skeleton king? o_O

I can't get the enemy individual health bars and numbers to show up like that streamer has them. I only get the red centered one when I mouseover, even though I have all the boxes in options > gameplay > hud checked.

I think you could solo if with Barb, may need to invest much into defensive talent though. They party above could have benefit from a Barb more than a Monk I think.

Just bought the game a few hours ago and haven't stopped playing since, lol. I can't decide on a class though >< I made a wizard and witch doctor on asia because US was down at the time and when US came back online I made a monk and demon hunter. Still completely undecided on what I want to stick with... So indecisive when it comes to character creation hahaha. I'm leaning towards monk right now but not entirely sure. Wizard seems like it could get really fun later and witch doctor has some really interesting abilities. I'll give barb a shot then make an official decision I suppose. Really loving the game so far though, tons of fun.
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

I gotta say I don't like the idea of spell damage being affected by whatever weapon you are using. I mean it makes sense if it's a magic wand but how does it make sense that holding a standard dagger would make an ice bolt do more damage? Now I understand it's a fantasy game and not real life but still I like fantasy worlds to be internally consistent and I can't think of any good reason why holding a normal melee weapon should affect the damage of a ranged spell. Am I missing something here?

Nope, not missing anything. It's a straight up trade of flavor consistency for gameplay mechanics.

It VASTLY improved gamesplay to have it this way. If you have such a huge problem with something that insignificant, just make something up... How about, uh, magic users have an inate ability to channel energy through their weapons, and the quality of the weapon boosts the energy. Seriously, it's just some abstract part of the basic lore, you don't need the game to tell you exactly why using a normal dagger boosts your magic, it's made-up anyway so just make something up yourself.

Just sold my first AH item, a rare 1-hand axe that have a socket and +40 int for something near 3000G. I found out that they took 15% transaction fee...I doesn't with gold item I think but once in the RMAH 15% seems like quite a lot.

It's like the country taking a 15% tax when you sell items, doesn't seem to make all the stores close down... (And yes this has been discussed to death)

What's funny to me is that I've yet to really use a magic wand. On my wizard I keep finding morning stars, swords, daggers, and other weapons that are just straight better than any wands or stalves.

To be honest, I don't really give a fuck though. I look way cooler walking around with a sword and spellbook than I do with some tiny wand.

My WD is running around with a 40 Int/Socketed Halberd.

Anyone with experience of solo Wizard on higher difficulties?
I heard that Wizard kind of sucked in D2 because of all spell immunities on the higher difficulties.
