Just going to stick to doing siegebreaker nv 5 stack runs and keep my sanity. Same here Ive tried it for an hour so far but it looks pretty bad ;x First it spawns rarely like only one on 6 and sometimes I have to fight even to see if its there. Then on those times there are like fucking soul rippers packs on top of it... then I have to clear everything to put my MF gear (otherwise only shit drops). So yeah I'll stick to siegebreaker, it takes me 40min and probably yields more blue/yellow | ||

I played WoW during release till about 2008 i had to deal with 30+min waiting to log in times and really laggy instances(esp for raids for larger groups of people) esp during the holidays for my server believed i played on a popular server kil'jaden or something, and cities were nearly unplayable at times. And WoW often had downtime although they usually had enough time to announce it 1 day before it not earlier and because i didn't play much during release i never noticed too much unscheduled down time. But the main difference is servers in WoW only handle a couple thousand users at a time, things like log-in social and AH handle millions of users depending on region, which can stretch the limits of how well some things scale. | ||

Siegebreaker on the other hand tends to give one good item every every 2 runs or so. That said, is there a good place to get NV stacks other than the bridge before you go kill him? Not having to clear the whole thing would be really nice, esp afking while tyreal kill stuff. | ||

Most of the items you find in hell/NM are shit anyways. My friend has around 110% Gold find without NV buff. He makes around 190K gold an hour just dicking around in act 3 NM. | ||

ARE YOU ACTUALLY TELLING ME THAT BLIZZARD NERFED ONE OF THE FEW BOSSES THAT COULD BE FARMED IN ACT 1! i honestly dont know what to say. the boss didnt even drop good stuff. i ran him a few times and out of like 10 runs i managed MAYBE 100~k total. who even whinged about this? i frequent the Bnet forums all the time for news of patchs and stuff and i have NEVER seen a complaint about this guy. WHAT THE HELL! Blizzard certainly has stats on who kills what how much. Also keep in mind that these kinds of corrections aren´t because they don´t want you to have good stuff but because they know that people tend to choose efficient over fun. The attempt is to encourage players to experience the fun and challenging aspects of the game. The scripted static story encounters are fun until you do the over and over and over (aka D2). | ||

Today I just reached inferno on my hardcore barb and started farming goblins, but it takes so much time I don't think I'll have the patience. I'm probably back to starcraft | ||

The community is basically a massive distributed computer for finding good solutions to "what can I do to get the best drops for the minimum difficulty". This usually results in "farming" being a completely separate way of playing to "actually playing the game". Blizzard are nerfing pure "farming" playstyles, with the goal of the best way of farming being "actually playing the game". That way, people won't feel forced to stop playing the game to do their farming. It's a nice goal, not sure if they'll succeed in the end. | ||

Actually all of WoW's instances have long since been moved to a single server farm per region. So every WoW player in a region doing a raid or battleground is instanced together with up to 39 other people. Every D3 player is instanced together with up to 3 other people. The login servers are unified. You log into bnet and then get assigned to a specific server. You may have a point about the AH, but then again D3's AH has a 10 item limit and no canceling of items, whereas in WoW you can post a gazillion auctions whenever (and people do). | ||

Melees hit a pretty significant gear barrier at the start of A2. Even if there were similar numbers of Barbs/Monks to DHs/Wizards, it will take significantly longer for them to farm the items necessary to be Belial-capable than DHs/Wizards. | ||

If you want to farm in act 2 i would say zoltun/belial runs are quite reasonable, i started doing that with around 25k hp, 25k dps as wizzard, pick quest for zultan, get stacks in black canyon mines, then proceed to do zultan/belial. Takes a bit longer(10-15 mins would say depending how lucky you were with elite spawns) than Butcher runs but chance for better drops overcomes that in my opinion. | ||
