I believe they disabled the AH for gems and crafting material to fix some issues. It was a while ago today, but I don't remember if they gave any timeframe or anything. | ||

i have been farming inferno act 1 with my DH for days now and can finish the whole act in record timewith no deaths. I dont gain any more benefit from the drops there, except for a very lucky perfect drop that occurs once a month. I even spend 2 millions on the auction house for cheated act 4 items. When i go to Act 2, i get completely destroyed and i am literally dying every 2 minutes because anything that touches me, anything at all, kills me. I dont know how to get better gear, i am completely stuck with this char, its frustrating and im about to completely give up. So, what would you do; what are you doing to gear up after act 1? | ||

My best answer would be to team with a melee character that can absorb some hits in A2. Once you guys figure out a good farming place do it a few times, sell good items on AH, buy new gear. Also A2 is really harder than A1 and your story is pretty much the same as everybody (act 1 was tough but after some gearing up it becomes easy and then A2 wrecks your face). There are many complaints about this. Either way, solo or coop you will just have to learn to just never get hit. | ||

You shouldn't be surprised if you die 1-2 times on elite packs, but it's definitely possible to not die to any white mobs. Just have to play perfectly is all. And yes, anything that touches you will kill you, that's the rest of the game so get used to it. | ||

So Diablo 3 inferno mode is basically like playing Unreal Tournament '99 with instagib on and you're alone against 20 other players? | ||

So play for a month, get a few of those once in ten-thousand perfect drops, and then re-visit Act 2. It's that or accept dying reasonably often as part of playing above the "intended" act for your gear level. Inferno isn't meant to be a reasonable difficulty when you're in reasonable gear, it's meant to be nearly impossible in all but the nearly impossible to obtain gear. The reason everyone can do Act 1 is the lack of threatening base mobs. There are very few mobs that are even ranged, quite a few of the mobs are significantly slower than your character, and they have almost no "innate" special abilities, so even with affixes they're manageable. Act 2 mobs are faster, there are generally more of them on screen, and they have many more special abilities before you ever add any affixes. | ||

I still wonder how I managed to get it together with practically no AH pieces, then again I got some of them from friends whom I gave some items before and got lucky with exalted fine mojo craft. | ||

It really annoyes me to no ends. | ||

It really annoyes me to no ends. The more they flood it now, the better. Save being pissed for the ones holding out until the RMAH opens up. I'm in a similar position, although I'm not the best, I'd probably be further ahead if I hadn't stubbornly refused to abuse SS. | ||

I have somewhat similar problem as that guy you quoted as I've posted before. My quick question to You sir is: Have You played inferno act 2-3 so You hold such strong opinion about it ?  | ||
