A bunch of course are just angry about the disconnects, but... is the game bad? o_O The game's not bad, it's well made. It's just not fun, unfortunately. I think it's due to the fact that it is the 2010s, and computer games have improved so much over the years D3 just doesn't appeal anymore. There was no competition back in the 90s which is why D1 and D2 were successful. I have been saying this in my blog - play Titan Quest (it's probably like $10 on Steam) and if you don't like it, you won't like D3. | ||

I've constantly been going "did I have more fun with Titan Quest? I think I did" when playing D3.. I think I might've jumped back over to D3 side of the fence now, though. But it does mean that Grim Dawn is very anticipated by my as well - it seems like a much cooler game in a lot of ways Torchlight is also very fun | ||

Generally speaking, the point/click/adventure genre of games is at its best when 90% of the game is purely atmospheric punctuated with moments of extreme danger. Instead I find myself kiting normal mobs for ages. It takes my wizard SO many casts to kill things (and I do every dungeon and explore everywhere so if anything I should be over leveled). Maybe I am just super unlucky with gear... socket your stuff with +Int or +Damage gems have you been using any kind of weapon that has a higher DPS # than your current one? using a class specific equip is nice but its a lot more important imo to just choose the higher DPS weapon equip stuff that has the +damage modifer | ||

Maybe I am just super unlucky with gear... go into AH and start sniping good gear. Sometimes its worth to cash out 5-6k gold for 1 good rare (like i got amu with 44dex + gem socket + vita on DH lvl 24, to bad my DH died on hc) Most importantly if you are playing SC you can go max offensive atribute (the one that gives u +dmg) and buy highest dps weapon possible you will ride through normal with aoe. If you want to play this game with "ease" at the beginning you either need to be super lucky with crafting/drops or use AH. Its not like D2 when you level throught Nor/NM you can depend on what you get easily, here AH is kinda accounted for in playing. So keep selling items and buying the faster you start the easier it becomes. There are so many cash sinks when beginning (artisans, stash, AH, repairs) | ||

Some with better drops or nice groups will be able to go for longer, but if you're unlucky you're going to have to backtrack and grind. You sound like you just plain need to gear up. I'm lvl 37 with 1000dps. Check the auction house for stuff you'd like, and maybe go back to act 3 content (maybe act 2) and just kill stuff.  I know you can't just breeze your way through a harder difficulty, that isn't what I'm saying at all. Even at level 51, I am still having trouble convincingly defeating monsters in Act III, tower of the damned and find myself dying a lot. 1789 DMG 996 intel 496 Vitality I'd still like a comprehensible build that might help orient how to better output damage with him? All the abilties that seem worthwhile like Vampric firebats require me to be close, where I die often. My pets don't really do any good tanking or distraction and so I often find myself just dying quickly if it isn't Act 1. | ||

Im not saying you cant but if you want to go into full dps fast clearance method you need to boost your surviveability with better gear. Also i found crafting pre-rare quality bad, its better to cash 2k for better substitute than roll 600gold-1k crafts 4 times. I died few times because i was suprised by new things i didnt mentally prepare for (like act2 boss or first pulling rare pack). Some people will clear it with ease some people will have problems. Also followers while being helpful are bad compared to even 1 other person playing, full set of skills and aoe dmg vs +5/10? dmg on monsters is easily making groups > solo for HC imho. | ||

i started with 4000 worth of gold as capital.4 hours of working the market i have turned that 4k Into 21k gold with Another 24k gold pending the sale of items. i think i might spend it all and just power through the difficultys and work with a larger capital later.... but i dont want to miss out on this crazy unstable market atm!!!! | ||

Yeah normal is ez mode but seriously 5k health and still hitting with aoe for 1k is a bit ridiculous. Will update on how this OP playstyle goes in nightmare the next chance I get to play... which is almost a week from now. | ||
