another unannounced change is many yellow chests have been replaced with just normal chests This one was kind of stupid to begin with and a good fix. There are several places (especially act 2) where you can go from a waypoint/checkpoint to a nearby cellar/dungeon with a yellow chest and easily farm. The problem is that those guys already exploited the hell out of this when it was available. There are just SO MANY things in the game that never should have made it to release, especially with how much Blizz delayed the game "polish" it.
While it was a good fix, it was also the best option to avoid the stupidity of the rest of inferno, oh well just happy I put in those extra hours doing those chests runs before they were removed, got pretty much everything I could possibly want in terms of gear and more gold than I could probably ever spend.

You don't have to abuse Smoke Screen to use it, most people in HC aren't even in Inferno where it is really profitable to abuse it with multishot(not the best damage skill). But if you read 3s you expect 3seconds, I'm not talking about infinite disc SS abuse, just normal Smoke Screen having a wrong tooltip. I myself don't abuse it too much because I hate multishot, but I do use it when I know I'm going to get hit by something and want not to die, or even to get to another place(kinda like vault). Luckily I don't play in HC. Blizz bears all fault, first in designing the skill to make you invul instead of invisible(really lazy design imo), and second for having bad internal testing to the point they didn't predict this build.(you don't need to be a genius, really, you have this skill that makes you invul and takes a shitton of disc, so just get ALL disc you can and you have the build..)

Yeah, the tooltip and lack of patch notes sucks. I won't argue that. Yes, it should have been fixed before launch. But meh. It did launch that way, and anyone who acknowledges it should have been fixed before launch should have been avoiding it like the plague, expecting exactly this. I certainly was, so I only knew something happened because people were talking about it. Yes, Blizzard did a less rational job with it than they could have, but knowing their track record like most of us do, this should have been at the top of the expectation pile.

boss fights are sooooooooo easy and boring. At least in hell. Just did hell Belial, and he had almost as much kill potential towards me then a 10 minute 4gate. But then again, it took me like eternity + 10 hours to take him down. I hope they try to tweak those matches, so they would not take so long, but would be more interesting.

Well, the gold chest in Alcanus didn't get taken out completely, just 50% chance instead.

Can you only find gems up to perfect? Or can you find all tiers of gems? Why are low tier gems so cheap on the AH O_O

Some people might like the armor. And you don't need to spend money repairing when you chain-res to clear a level! Sell it on the AH to see what happens. (trollface)

anyone having trouble with the auction house today? I checked the server status and it says its up... but its greyed out for me and says unavailable?

There was an announcement at the login screen saying its down.

Ahh I didn't get that announcement  then why does the server status site say its up?? confusing T.T

I don't think the server status page updates in real time.. it's pretty dumb.
"We are currently addressing an issue with the auction house. During this time the auction house will be unavailable for use. We are working diligently to resolve the issue as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience."
|
Server definitely doesn't update in real time. During the ultra-long server maintenance yesterday (was it yesterday?), the status page still showed that the servers were up. So I don't know what's the point of those server updates.

At least the level 57 one will salvage into hell level enchanting mats.
