Hopped on at lunch for a second. Finally was able to collect my sellings, and post new auctions. It has been broke for me since Sunday.

When I tried to search, the same thing happened. Nothing would show up.

The AH needs a ton more visual/status feedback while searching. Hard to tell if it's doing anything sometimes.

I know also can you even get pages of training on that thing you could in beta and now i cannot find them.

Wooooo! Beat Diablo. I gotta say, great game overall. I got very into the story which is rare for me. The Act 2->3 and Act 3->4 (especially this one) cinematics where AMAZING.

Just loaded into Nightmare on my 31 DH just to see what was going to be different. After dying at the first major battle in the Cathedral..I decided I will take a break :)

Also, did I miss anything in a cutscene or something, but was Adria ever addressed? Or is she going to bring back Diablo again for the expansion next year? lol

I didn't see anything with her, after she summoned diablo I think she bounced.

After watching the movie last night, got on and completed Act 1 in Hell Mode. Butcher was really easy.

Act 2 so far isn't that hard. I still eat the little bugs like skittles :/

Ran into what I think is the dumbest, most over powered mob ever...invulnerable Minions/Molten/Vampiric.... Was funny though. Box and I ran up to the yellow, and we both start attacking it and it's minions. I'm not gaining any spirit, because I'm taking on the minions... I then notice in their name it says "invulnerable" above the Yellow Rare monster. I was like... "what.. invulnerable?" , and told Box to just run away while we thought of a strat to beat something that said "invulnerable". I then notice that it is only his minions that wouldn't take any damage, and you have to just kill the main guy, and they all die. Took us a couple of tries to down him, but it took us by surprise. Never saw that type of immunity.

I played a bit last night, got to the Leoric Manor part in ActI hell mode ended up more or less restarting ACT I as I felt behind. I've seen the invulnerable on Nightmare, it took me a bit to realize that only the minions were actually untouchable. I decided to swap my Light Bell thing for MoH and currently sitting at 22K HP it takes a fair bit (minus fire, lasers, etc) to kill me now.

Sweet. Ya, I've upped my gear. Now doing around 4.4k DPS, but lowered my health from about 30k to 26k. I'm trying to see how damagy I can be, and then adjust the build if I start dieing too much. But so far, at least running with Box, my monk is doing just fine. Box actually dies a lot more and I just stand there taking the hits until he gets back :p

I got a few new pieces. My Damage is still low, but I do enough to kill the mobs. But I am sitting at ~750 vit, and ~780 dex so I am pretty balanced. I was focusing on Damage however I figure if I can balance them out, I can do enough damage to kill mobs fast enough without worry of extra agro while staying alive long enough to kill them if I do accidentally pull more.

Ya, that is a good strat. I was using that for the most of my play through, but now I'm trying to see how much of a berserker I can make my monk :p If you are up for playing tonight, I will be on.

I don't see why people xp farm on this game. It took maybe 3 solid days to reach lvl 50. Sure, it goes a lot slower the last 10, but not slow enough to resort to xp farming. I still have 3 acts to get through Hell with my level 56 Monk, and then there is Inferno. I'm playing for a challenge, and xp farming just seems to bypass that challenge up more so than what the AH provides for us. It's not my cup of tea :p

So I figured out why my banner kept giving errors when I entered it and click save to exit. Blizzards awesome game, apparently decided to "lose" a whole bunch of my achievements, including all the campaing achievements from Lord of sin and up at the very least, possibly before, but the shape I "used" was the one from Lord of Sin achievement.

funny how I'm missing half the bosses achievements from normal difficulty when I finished the game with my wizard....

I tried to log in today, but I get "Error 12: No Diablo 3 license is on this account". I logged into Battle.Net, and it says I now have to buy a new copy of Diablo 3. WTF?

Is Torchlight 2 out yet? :rofl:

Try again later, open a support ticket, and/or check the email address your account is registered to? (To see if there is any info there.)

And no, Torchlight 2 isn't out yet, but I'm kind of looking forward to Lego Diablo too as a bit of a casual break from real Diablo. ;) (Okay I admit, that was kind of mean spirited. <3)

I'm havent even reached lvl 60 (I'm 55) and am already feeling burned out.

I just dont have the desire to play I had the first 4 days. It's starting to feel too repetitive.

Sort of feeling the same way, got to act 1 hell, level 51 right now and just not feeling the drive.....only reason I'm playing it is cause I want to at least hit 60.....starting to get bored on my barb now too, who's only lvl 38 because it's the same thing only easier (barb is much easier than monk....my 51 monk is doing fine with 25k life, 2.5k armor, 30 all resist and 2.3k DPS in a1 hell, my barb is in a1 NM with 6k life, 3.2k armor, 0 resist and 900 DPS.....already more armor/damage reduction and more life/dps than my monk at that level) so it's getting boring more quickly...I know barb and monk are very difficult to play through inferno, but at this point I probably won't make it to inferno any time soon. Barb is so much easier though that it feels almost pointless.

Started a demon hunter, which is definitely different and more interesting to play (not just jump in middle of mobs, ground slam, revenge if it's up, cleave otherwise until dead), but the same content over and over is starting to get to me.

TBH I'm starting to feel like abandoning my barb because he's just not fun to play at this level. Random monsters are frustrating as a barbarian. He felt so invincible at 30-40, and now? Gahhhh. Witch Doctor on the other hand is awesome. Burnt out barbs, I'd try a witch doctor!

Agreed. My WD was 48 before my account was wiped. Loved every minute of it!

I hadn't payed any attention to TL2.. but yea looking at the pictures.. it definitely looks like Diablo for Kids haha

Thanks!

And the party continues!!! )))

Much more brave than I.....while deaths through Normal and Nightmare can easily be avoided if geared (later nightmare becomes a bit more difficult), I do not think I would venture into hell (or inferno from what I've heard) without have the best gear you could get. I've died more in A1 hell than I did throughout normal and nightmare combined.

    • Windows 11 KB5094126, KB5093998 bugging out Office apps but it may not be Microsoft's fault by Sayan Sen Microsoft last week released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. Although the tech giant did not acknowledge any major problems, some users online reported various issues ranging from OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. You can read about them in this dedicated piece. While there is still no confirmation about those problems from Microsoft the company has admitted to another bug which we did not report on. The tech giant has confirmed it has received reports of an issue in which certain third-party applications may be unable to launch Microsoft Office apps or open Office documents after installing the Patch Tuesday. This affects both Windows 11 as well as Windows 10. The company says the problem impacts a subset of applications that rely on OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) automation to communicate with Microsoft Office programs. According to Microsoft, affected scenarios involve third-party software attempting to open Office applications or documents from within their own interface. In such cases, the Office program may fail to launch altogether, or the requested document may not open. Oddly there may not be any error message, which probably makes the issue difficult to diagnose. The bug affects several Office products, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, and other apps in the Microsoft Office suite when they are launched through the affected software. These include tax and accounting software such as CCH Engagement and Workpaper Manager, dental practice management solutions like Dentrix and Softdent, as well as the popular research and reference management tool Zotero. Microsoft adds that other applications using similar Office integration methods could also experience the same problematic behavior. To understand the issue it is important to look at OLE, the Microsoft technology involved. OLE allows different applications to work together and share data, while its Automation feature lets one program control another. Thus this enables third-party software to launch Microsoft Office apps, open documents, and perform tasks automatically without requiring users to switch between programs. Because many accounting, healthcare, research, and business applications rely on OLE automation to interact with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and other Office apps, any disruption can break those workflows. As a result, affected software may be unable to open Office documents or launch Office applications even though the programs themselves continue to work normally. At the moment the company has not provided a permanent fix though it has confirmed that engineers are actively working on a resolution, which will be delivered through a future Windows update. As such additional details will be shared once more information becomes available. In the meantime, Microsoft recommends a simple workaround for affected users whic is to open the Office application or document directly rather than launching it through the third-party program. For enterprise customers and organizations managing larger deployments, Microsoft says an additional mitigation is available. Admins experiencing the problem on their managed devices are advised to contact Microsoft Support for business to obtain and apply the workaround.
