Diablo III

The bosses are great for power leveling lowbies because they drop the most exp, but the real loot drops from elite champions which is where the real difficulty lies. The bosses are mostly markers for the plot and acts.

The bosses do the exact same thing on every difficulty. The only thing that changes are the numbers involved.

Yes, which causes you to approach the fight differently because you can't just click over and over again to win.

Disappointed in the drops. D2 was damn near perfect. Low-level legendaries and Set pieces could drop in the first act in D2. Half the fun of Christmas is opening the box to see what's inside. Half the fun of D2 was killing Big Joe Shmoe and seeing what colors of items hit the floor. Meh. I'll run it until I can't run any further (I understand it's REALLY hard to gear for inferno with end of Nightmare items, and the blacksmith items stop being helpful even before then), but dammit, I want my rainbow colored pinata drops!

Yeah, I was disappointed when I learned that every set piece is reserved for inferno. There's still low level legendary gear, but legendary gear in general is garbage. Most of the gear in the game is underwhelming. You don't have armor that has a bunch of cool effects, spells and auras attached to it anymore. Just stat increases.

I got a few legendaries i will never ever ever use in normal.
Like, one was good for a barbarian, but my barbarian was level 40 so...not good for it.
I have no problem with the set pieces being reserved for Inferno, just because it gives me something i may want to farm.
But probably won't want to farm.

Had to bump this for a funny story.
So, the real money auction house has launched, and seems to be working. I haven't used it because the idea of paying money too buy a videogame item for a game where the only goal is getting items strikes me as being stupid.
However, a large problem has arisen, credit card companies are getting huge numbers of calls asking for refunds, and are being granted them.
Why?
Because they consider it bait and switch, here's the issue.
You pay money to buy an item on the RMAH, blizzard patches the game, the stats on the thing change, now, you don't want it. Many, many, many people on the official forums and other places are reporting that they are indeed getting their money back, and credit card companies, citibank at least is confirmed, has said they are "looking into this issue", but are still granting refunds.
Heres where the tricky bit gets factored in. There isn't much of a precident for this, videogame players selling other videogame players in game items, for actual money, through the game itself.

I was disapointed by the way loots are distributed. I had to use the GAH to move forward Inferno. It wasn't that hard but Inferno has a great lack of balance for now. So, until they update it, I only play in Hardcore mode ;)

Anyone still playing this?

I have a DH in Inferno and should have a Wizard there in the next day or so.
