I haven't had much time to play recently, so I've just been doing some AH stuff instead of grinding through the higher acts... and I signed on really quickly to see how my items were doing in the AH, and I saw that I had two bids on gems (that have apparently expired, and I won one and lost one). The only problem is... I've never ever bid on anything before (let alone on gems). Any time I want something in the AH, I buyout the item (personal preference, so far it's been fine, and this choice is irrelevant anyway), and I have absolutely no idea why these two bids have appeared on my AH screen. Here's a screenshot: ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/agpkD.jpg) This is the first time I've ever even *seen* anything on the bottom half of this window before. I looked around for any other suspicious activity but couldn't find any. I didn't lose any items or gold (although a loss of 5849 gold- the sum of these two bids- is something I wouldn't have recognized). It says I won 6 square rubies, but I don't actually have that many in my inventory or stash, nor are they in my Completed AH tab (where you go to pick up your item/ gold after an exchange or transaction is completed). I honestly have no clue what the heck is going on, although I got hacked about a week or two ago (Blizzard rolled back my account, I changed my password, and I'm still waiting for my authenticator to get here, etc.). Nobody knows my new password, and it's much much different than my old one. Any thoughts? I believe if you have EVER purchased a crafting mat in AH before, EVERY single one of them appears, regardless of buyout or bid. I got scared for a moment when I logged in to see half a page of auction mats when I realized that the vast majority of them I purchased in that amount the few days after release when it was still working. Working as intended(probably not), although it probably scares the hell out of people who only bought stuff like once or twice. That's useful to know, thanks  That being said, I've never bought any gems or crafting materials from the AH, and the last time I bought an item was about a week ago (and I've checked the AH many times since then to update my sold items and sell others, so I wouldn't have missed this). I've never even sold gems or crafting materials via the AH before. I've never had any interaction with gems or crafting materials via the AH (although as a barbarian, I do use rubies a lot).
Some of the items on mine are from after the auction house crashed, but before they took it down officially. I never actually received or lost gold for any of the items in question, but they are appearing on that list now.

hmm so im wondering how me and my brother can play together, I have a level 36 wizard already and he is just starting (level 3).
I could level with him on a new char, but he will out level my new character because i'de be playing 2 characters overall >.< ..can you play together if there is a large level gap? if so how does experience/ power get shared

Exp does not get shared and enemies do not scale with level. You gain full exp for everything equal or below your level, but reduced exp for everything above your level (which prevents power leveling). If you cannot both work on the one character equally, the next best thing is to get to 60 and play together then. My very first character got level 60 under 40 hours playing normally. If you exploit quests and stuff, under 8 hours.

From what I've seen, rank 7 (square) gems are currently too cheap so I bought ~5000 of them to upgrade them after patch 1.0.3. Also bought Tomes of Jewelcrafting since I'd need those for the combining.
It seems to be a good time to sell Exquisite Essence (from inferno magic items) since the price is up around 1100 right now. I don't think that's a sustainable price in the long term and it should drop to 800-900.

A bold bet to sell essences now since if your predictions are correct, when you buy essences at their cheaper price later you will be making 35-135 gold after blizzard tax. Not a lot of margin of error.

so in that case, I could just join his games on my level 36? albeit super easy because of my damage..

Yep, you can run through normal difficulty for him, probably won't be as fun though. He'll need to be lvl 25 to unlock nightmare.

Minor rant: Why have character names been thrown aside and profile names show up everywhere for every character  it lame
Other than that I like the new changes coming up and I'm pretty happy with the game.

Someone just linked a sort of magenta/purple item in the chat called "Diablos Claw"
I went to check the item by clicking on it and it crashed my client.
Does anyone have ANY further info on this?

wait, is EACH exquisite essence 1100? (so 110k for a set of 100 essence?)

A new item spoof/hack/glitch is out where you can make and edit items to make them look pimped out. For an example, check the What is my item worth? thread and you will see a 2H item that has 3.5k dps. That is impossible. In addition, people are creating items, like Diablos Claw (in magenta text) that CRASHES your client and/or your PC when clicked on. Watch out for these scams when you are lurking around on the general/trade chat.
Have a good night everyone.

The legendary one is 3m and the other 4.5, i'm not exactly sure how good 8% block is. Also, are these overpriced?

Tomes stack to 1000 so they're not an issue.

Seems I was wrong in my prediction anyway since they're now up to 1500 each. As UniversalSnip pointed out, keep in mind the 15% cut though.

You can make fake items show up in chat by pasting their item codes in chat. Examples from reddit:

After leveling my DH to 60 and starting inferno, I spent about 400k gearing him, along with 4 pieces from my monk worth ~10 mil. Facerolling act 1 inferno so incredibly hard. 15k health and 100-200 resist all doesn't matter when you do 35k(62 with SS) damage and 1-2shot everything. Just need to micro hard and everything just dies.

Which is exactly why DHs are so mindlessly boring on Inferno imo.

Wait, so you can get more money by salvaging and selling essences instead of vendoring? Holy shit I should have sold them this way.....
That's a lot of gems.

This seems similar to WoW, where it was possible to link items via their unique identifier. If an item had never dropped on the server you were on, the item details werent cached and clicking the item-link would disconnect you. It's a bit of a sloppy implementation. Not sure if WoW still has this 'feature', but it doesn't surprise me that a similar issue popped up in D3.
