So I guess they'll have to add another 100 paragon levels just to keep the hardcore players motivated, just like the first 100?

if all classes had 500k dps, which class will clear mobs the fastest and what skill will he use? is it a demon hunter with ball lightning or strafe? what do you guys think?

relative to how long people originally guesstimated plvl 100 would take, i'd say "only" works pretty well =p
also, 250 hours of gaming in general isn't even that much for some people

General question about the AH...anyone know what the best days/times are for selling and buying? Prices generally seem higher during weekends, and a lot lower Tue. or Wed.
|
Doesn't really matter the day, just prime time is the best to buy (to flip) and sell (to profit). Since there isn't a USEAST or USWEST the 'prime-time' range is like 5pm est to 3am. Of course its easier with bots!

barbarian with spring and wrath of the berserker, because constant movement speed is what makes barbarian farming the best

personally i never list items on sunday (at least not high end items where i rely on bids) 'cause otherwise you get screwed over by blizzard extended maintenances on tuesday mornings
on the other hand, i've sniped a fair deal of items to flip by using server downtime (usually goes down at 5am)

Wow those patches really made this game a lot better for me(havent played much more than 100 hours). Better balancing on the demon hunter skills and monster power are giving me a lot of things to play with (:

I've just got my first Infernal Portal device by farming some MP5 key runs.
But if I use the portal and die before I kill the übers to I lose the portal and have to start over with collecting keys or can I respawn like when I'm farming?

You won't lose the portal unless everyone leaves the game, but it's a boss scene so you will have to restart from full HP ubers.

As mentioned above, you can respawn and try again. You should know that the best way to go about fighting ubers is in a group with at lease 3 machines total. You can't choose which portal gets opened so unless you open all 3 in one game, you risk not opening the portal you need next time.

This... is quite important info. I don't know why, but me and my friends used 15+ portals before we figuired out that we can spawn all 3 different portals in one game... It quite faster and easier that way...;P

Thinking about starting up again. Stopped around the start of inferno when I realized I'd have to farm the fuck out of the auction house and that wasn't fun. Is this still a requirement or can you actually play the game to progress now?

You can probably smash MP1 (apparently MP0 doesn't count for completion achievements) with under a million.

You can clear inferno MP0 with self found gear yes, alternatively you could probably farm 500k gold in one day, use buyouts (i.e. not camping) for cheap upgrades for 50-100k gold per slot and clear the game that way.
OR
you could play self-found on hardcore. There's a thread for that here, i'm going to give that a go starting next week!

I believe if you made it to Inferno pre-patch; you have the gear to clear on MP1 already. Maybe an upgrade here or there; but nothing major.

Heh, nothing that drops in Inferno is particularly Inferno-worthy. But since rares rain down like candy now, the AH is flooded with cheap (as in under 50k gold) gear that would have amounted to end-game gear back in the 1.02-1.03 timeframe.
So have fun looting the AH for a few minutes then go pwn Inferno at MP1-3.
