I'm poor in this freaking game...always running at max 50k gold and after buying stuff at the AH I end up with 586g...

Sure i'm only half in Act 2 Nightmare but please tell that later money income gets better?

im sitting ay 700k just from playing the game and selling some crap on the AH
the most expensive thing i sold for 200k, and then spent it on more stash space, (lvl 36 legendary) most things i sell for 5-15k, it slowly adds up

i also have 3 active chars (2 in hell 1 in NM) so i get more gold from quests/mobs as well

IMO - if anything worth a dam drops, I would be more inclined to sell it for REAL money than in game gold. Then again you have people that say / swear that they will never use the Real money AH.

It seems to me that almost no one who wants to PLAY this game is actually playing it. They get tired of the SP mode not working and quit. Everyone else does speed runs for loot or sends in bots.

Similar to the online state of D2

Buy items with +% Gold Find. It helps.

im playing it. i have at least 15 people on my friends list any given night who are playing it. Not sure what you mean by SP mode not working? I run solo a fair amount of the time I play.

I think the thing is, the people who want to play ARE playing. they aren't here on the forums bitching, they are in game playing.

im not even in lvl 60 yet and im pretty sure i got 500k at least upto now, spent in the stash tabs and leveling blacksmith/jewel and buying stuff. i wouldnt waste 10 bucks in somethign that its not that hard to get.

i think 10 cents is more like a real conversion


really? this game is really a business. I would actually gold farm (without bots) for $3...

That is why gold sellers are working so hard to target D3 accounts. They smartly hid with multiple compromised accounts from WoW and chose to compromise the accounts now with D3. Gold selling is what drives all these hacking incidents since hacking = real $$$.

This what makes the economy overpriced,
just because people like you who sell A 350K ITEM for insane amount.

After i cleared Act 1 inferno, i took a look at how much gold i have looted ,
its fu**ing 1,350,000 gold only !! where the heck do you think i will get 2.5 million ?!

350k for an epic ( very powerdful gear ) is okey... 2 act 1 inferno runs and u get it,
but 2.5 million ? = 8 runs... which is equal TO 24hours of gameplay...

Spend 24 hours for 1 peice of gear only , WTF ?!


You somehow point this to being his fault? Did he hold a gun to the buyer's head and tell them to make the purchase at such and such price?

The buyer paid or bid a certain amount of gold. That's all there is too that. Seller was on the receiving end of some luck between buying low/selling high.

Umm, I just logged on to find my Monk sitting at Act 1 Normal with 300k gold gone (0 gold now).
Should I even bother to do anything about it?

(And, like all others - zero shady links pressed etc)

Get an authenticator and ticket Blizzard for your stuff back unless it's easy to get it back yourself.

I also have no problems playing the game, SP or MP. Though to me it's all Multiplayer, there is no Singleplayer. I don't play this game 24 hours a day though so I may be missing the downtime during non-primetime hours but for me, when I get home from work and gym or whatever else I have to do first, game works just fine until I go to sleep.

ZOMG U OBVLSULY CLICK KEYRLOGGR LOLNOOB.

To be fair 300k gold isn't much, if you want to sacrifice one of your lifetime restores you can call bliz support. This might roll you back a week or 2 though, so it might not be worth it at all.

To prevent in the future (anecdotal proof from various sources):

1) Don't reveal name in chat and don't join public games.
2) Put authenticator on account.
3) Play only private games or with known associates that you can punch IRL.

"Reduced level requirement" is quite an amusing property. I found a 600DPS level 60 two hander, pretty average, but it had reduced level requirement by 10 so my friend's barbarian has been enjoying that in Hell lol.

Also got my barb through more of A2 Inferno last night; it's doable, but definitely slower and whereas I can take anything A1 can throw at me, there are finally enemies that are simply impossible for me. My gear is pretty solid but there's definitely room for a few hundred more resists and armor and a better shield, but it does have me wondering if it'll 'ever' be enough lol. And even if I get to a point of realistic survivability, I think it'll be a serious damage compromise without some absolutely ridiculous gear.

1 and 3 isn't even foolproof, since you don't have to click anything to compromise your computer. All it takes is someone hosting a compromised banner ad, or a piece of program on your computer that isn't up to date for a hacker to use as a backdoor to gather information.

#2 is the only safe bet for the time being and one that is 100% fully on Blizzard it if fails.

I don't think any amount of gear will be enough to survive. It's all about using certain skills and killing things quickly or kiting champs. Avoid damage or absorb it, no way to actually take hits

Jeez, just the sheer amount of hacking going on is mind boggling. I'm actually thinking of getting the iOS authenticator on my iPad since it's usually near the computer (don't want to bother with the keychain or my horribly buggy Android phone).

It's pretty bad but not surprising. It's a huge booming business for gold sellers.

You can just use BlueStacks and run the app off the PC, theoretically any way
