Best idea I ever read, I forget where..

was given paragon xp for playing Diablo 2.

Getting rid of the AH seems to make people think they will be showered in perfect Mempo's in loot 2.0...

Try rolling Hellfire rings for a preview of how your dropped legendaries will be... but without the annoying chance to get str/int on a dex craft.

Not to mention, they are going to add *tons* of new annoying and useless suffixes to clog up your rolls.

I think the AH should go away, sure, but the drop system should be like Diablo2.

Legendaries should be rarer than what they are now, but they don't have chances to roll absolutely retarded shit that makes them useless to offset that.

Made 800 or so the first time I left, little less than 300 the second time, bought back in with 150 of that 300 when I just came back for the paragon grind to 100. Link should illustrate how ridiculous you can gear up compared to what that set was worth before (thousands I'm sure if I bought this shortly after dropping the "good legendaries" patch).

I don't think people realize that they aren't going with the console style loot that showers you with 5 sick legendaries per act and, that to truly get the gear they crave, they will be playing as much as the people with multiple paragon 100s that knew how to actually play the auction house, hunt for deals, sell entire suits and rebuy to shift their stats for maximum dps/ehp.

Gold will still be valuable for rerolling stats on items, crafting gems (cost me fucking godly amounts to make my marquise gems). My question is: will my current gear carry me thru the first play through of the new act and at least into speed clearing mp1/2 on the new inferno? Actually.. probably. There's a run to ditch all your gear right now, but also realize your chance to get a 2million gold (easy) good legendary that fits a build you want is going away without intense farming until one drops (at least it wont be dex/str/int/no socket when it does hopefully).

new inferno?

I speed clear MP4 now with no problems unless I get server lag or whatever the hell happens randomly every so often.

2million good legendary? Most "good" legendary items I have seen are 20mil + and the great ones 100-200mil + and the near/perfect ones are 900mil+

You know the game is fucked when they rip out the core mechanic the game was designed around.

D2 was such a better game because you actually had build flexibility with item stat distribution. They royally fucked up with D3 to the point the guy in charge of it had to get reassigned.

It's really Blizzard's worst effort to date.

And I want a new difficulty, Beating act 5 inferno should go 60-70 and then a new difficulty so I don't have to farm only act 5 for lvl 70 loot. A new sandbox difficulty where every act is just as hard and drops the same loot.

But with the new 'Loot Run" system, who needs to farm acts anymore?
