So MF increases the total amount of items with stats, but does it also increase the % of ilvl 63 items you find?
So e.g. naked you find 80 white 15 blue 5 rare, with 100% mf you find 60 white 30 blue 10 rare? But regarding ilvl 63 items on inferno act 4; naked you have a 8% chance to get one, with 100% mf do you get a 16% to get one?
the only answer i can definitively give you is: it didn't in diablo2 :/
Just found out there is a move key you can bind which will ignore enemies unlike left clicking. Now if I just need to figure out how to bind the number pad emotes without replacing anything else since I use a laptop.

Soo, how's that working? I come from work and try play , oh no !

This is such a fucking great response , for me not be able to play this singleplayer game.. pathetic
It's actually a good thing, if you weren't so busy wallowing in your self pity. Remember the first few days, when nobody could log in ever, and the latency was obscene? That was because people trying to log in were bogging blizz down by spamming it over and over. Is it annoying? Yes. Is it the better alternative? Yes. Do you actually expect Blizz to spend half the GDP of a third world country 6 months before announcing a launch date because their crystal ball told them how much infrastructure they would need for the first few months, only to have the hardware basically be wasted in less than half a year? Well, the answer to that one is probably yes too, given the way people are these days.
Well , you have a good point , maybe , but using a condescent tone might not be good while ask yourself this:
Did I payed for that game ? Yes , And I expect to work Did I want server play? no , I just want to play my game Do I care whats need to be done for my game to work? NO Do I wonder whats needed for my car to work? NO , i just want for me to carry me from place to place Do I ask for a refund if my micro oven doesnt work ? Yes I do
I think is reasonable complaint for that. But if you think that I am selfpittying myself, then the right of one consumer is a bit low

you know in advance a car needs an engine to work and doesnt feature a pedal mode but you still expect the engine to work.

Sometimes the engine goes out on you just when you take it off the dealer's parking lot and you can't get your money back due to signing that darn contract....With no warranty.
Game sold 7.5 million copies day 1...Expected to sell 3 million worldwide in 1 year. Wasn't expecting a huge influx of people buying. Servers go down to huge activity. Really what happened. Trying to catch up due to this influx in player base.
i have a question about XP, if a level 29 were to join a level 40 on Nightmare mode, how quickly would the 29 catch up/ would he just die too easily? trying to get my brothers char caught up with my main.

There's a cap on how much exp you can get from killing stuff or doing quests. A level 29 doing level 40 quests would be no faster than doing the lvl 29 quests. If he dies a lot, it ends up being a lot slower. Level 29 to 40 shouldn't take very long anyways, so just play the game as it is and he should catch up easily.
I honestly have no idea why blizzard did not put gear check mobs for ranged hero's. All they had to do was make a mob with a ranged, instantaneous attack, that fired fairly quickly and did 20k-50k base damage, that was fairly common. With 80% DR(not hard to get), it'd be 4-10k, which will be fairly easily tanked. My DH with 500k of blues(300k weapon), 15k hp, 100 resist all(from my monk gear) and 33k damage before sharpshooter shouldn't die less than my monk did in Act II (Act 1 was basically dodge the environmental hazards).

Well I don't know, playing a low geared wizard, trying to farm siegebreaker is no joy really. 1 hit by basicly any attack even with force armor.
Spear lands on you? dead Bird fireball? dead The smallest possible goblin melees you once? dead Something with teleport? dead if you didn't spot it before it agros Any Immune minion / fast / just naturally fast mob? dead dead dead
Siegebreaker at least is doable with no gear as he never hits anything, but my god is it frustrating to die from 1 hit from anything. The 250-300 ping I'm getting from Blizzard's end isn't helping matters, I swear the hitbox for those bird fireballs increases like 5 times due to it.
don't trade with anyone unless you want risk getting scammed. happy that D3 has AH and mostly removes having to deal with idiots.
lmao what actually just happened? It was so fast...
The other guy put in his gold and the scammer removed the gem and hit trade?
I know in D2, any time an item was removed from the trading window, there was a few seconds of downtime where you couldn't check off the exchange agreement, so no super-fast scamming like that could happen...

That doesn't sound fun at all.
Well I'm just thinking up ways to put in gear checks for ranged characters, because right now I'd have no more difficulty doing act 2 in 0vit/0resist gear as a demon hunter. My micro I'd rate as above average, but nowhere near perfect, and even then I can outmicro every single mob in act 2 up until maghda, (including the thralls, you can SS it with good latency and reflexes). Will report later as I encounter more invis snakes, although those can be dodged with proper SS timing.

Don't worry, it gets harder.
Not really, not compared to how much harder it gets for melee (and witch doctors). Apart from Rakanoth where you need a tank, I don't see any real hurdles. I rerolled a DH and he is just easier to be play, more effective, and cheaper to gear up than anything else.
But the next patch will be a straight up buff to melee. Source and a good read for everyone:
