**OFFICIAL** Diablo 3 Thread

I put a ring w/ 15% IAS, 125 dex, 25 vit, 12-24 damage for $150. I hope some rich kid on summer vacation steals his moms credit card and buys it.

 

[Batmeat]

Thanks for the insight on the level thing. Back to work for me.

Certainly not disagreeing, but just to add: it looks like Bliz is doing some kind of extended "checking" on these auctions.. What that means, who knows.. Here is the email I got from my item sold last night.

My guess, and it's just a guess, is that they're cross-checking the seller and buyer against known compromised accounts but it's all still on Blizzard's end. Nothing Blizzard does would prevent a chargeback from being initiated directly with PayPal or with a credit card associated with PayPal.

I wonder if some people also consider these purchases to be investments? Decking your character out in really good gear may allow you to clear content easier, and in turn also get good gear. You can then try and sell the good gear for good money.

However, this sounds a lot like the housing bubble of 2009, and we know how that went. :hmm:

 

[micaturbo]

not really, cause if you were lvl 60 that property would be is useless... so its a lvl 46 item

It's still technically a level 60 item. If you filter the AH to only show level 60 items, it will appear.

technicalities aside you can use it at lvl 47 - 60 so it's still a lvl 47-60 weapon

Woke up this morning, checked the AH, made some more sales. My total is now at $173. It's all still processing though.

Can't believe people actually paid for my gear, it wasn't exceptional or anything... I couldn't even survive A3 Inferno with it.

I cant wait to sell my 500+ square gems on the RMAH.

 

[digiram]

I found a recipe for the exalted fine flesh ripper. Level 62 Ceremonial knife. Do I wait to sell it as a commodity or make Ceremonial knives for sale on RMAH?

"When the PvP patch is ultimately ready, it will add multiple Arena maps with themed locations and layouts, PvP-centric achievements, and a matchmaking system that will help you and your team get into fairly matched games quickly and easily. We'll also be adding a personal progression system that will reward you for successfully bashing in the other team's skulls."

Maybe they have a way to match you based on gear level.

Possibly. They said item levels are in the game but hidden.

The progression system could also come into play (personal rating like WoW has/had?)

 

[masterxfob]

make c.knives! i've got one with ~1k dps up on RMAH that i'm hoping will hit $100.

 

[Fallengod]

I screwed myself on the RMAH. They fixed the cancel glitch and I was greedy and put a bunch of crap up for like $100 per item lol. Now I got 10 listings sitting there for 2 days I cant cancel...

I made $2 though!(or like $1.60 or whatever it is after paypal fees lol)

If you can mass produce NOW i would use it on self to sell on RAH. Otherwise sell it on RMAH if you can't produce anything.

Item levels (iLvl) will be exposed in the next patch 1.0.3. ETA is the end of June.

Did you try the gold AH to see if it's fixed there? I figure they made the timer server side for RMAH cuz you can't well allow that kind of shenanigans when real money is involved.

 

[gleong]

I just read on Battle.net forums that they removed the session limit for further review because it wasn't intended to be as limiting as it was last night! Woot! Back to treasure goblin farming tonight!

Nah its fixed. Already tried both.

its fixed on the GAH also, you get an error when trying to cancel after using the bug.

Anyone got a super beefy DH or Wizard? I want to look at gear.

I could use someone strong to help me through A2 inferno as well.

Oh well, guess I will be working on the barb again this evening. Anyone up for some NORMAL mode

Ya know, I think this game is starting to show it's weakness, especially on replay value. I'm trying to figure out what Blizzard thinks is going to keep people playing.

The rush to level 60 happens way too fast and the rewards for getting there are almost non-existent. In Diablo 2 the character level cap is 99 and it takes forever to get there. In World of Warcraft it's lower but there is always some new quest to do. In D3 it doesn't take long to hit 60 and once you do your two choices are start a new character or start grinding for items, neither of which is much fun.

In Diablo 2 the highest item level requirement (that I recall) was 81 and the push from 81-99 was probably another 30-40 hours (pre-patch 1.09, 1.10 and after it was probably twice that). So once you hit 81 all the rest of the levels are for bragging rights/build perfection, but it's not necessary. But since EVERYONE hits lvl 60 in D3 there are no bragging rights, and since there are no character builds (other than item builds which are composed of randomly-generated stat items) there's nothing to perfect.

The grind to the high levels in D2 is just that, a grind, but at least it was fun (and not necessary for PvP, PvM, etc). Hell cows were fantastic, even Baal runs weren't awful and I know Blizzard changed it because "there were so many complaints," but it suffering through Inferno hoping you don't get one-shotted by every blue enemy you see something they consider fun?

I think they're hoping on people getting hooked on the RMAH and spending all their time MFing in the hopes that they'll find the one item that sells for $250 after the hype wears off.

Anyways, I'll step off my soapbox. I still enjoy D3 but I can tell my interest is already on the decline, something that took took over a year to hit me on D2.

My DH does 76k dps with no SS right now. I do Azmodan runs and am trying to get better gear.

Diablofans.com has a thread where a guy made a spreadsheet to see how things affect your damage output. I use that nonstop when looking for items on the AH or when I pick stuff up.

Best advice for right now is to learn how to NOT get hit at all. One hit and I die, so a lot of kiting and movement is required. I can try to assist you with help if needed.

Maybe try hardcore. Have you beaten Inferno yet?
