Re: Diablo 3

Yeah I mean like if my gloves have +3 experience from monsters, boots have +2 experience...I'm basically stacking XP and now have +5 XP from monsters. So each kill gives me +5 additional XP.

The Adventuring armor set gives you +XP, then there is a Gathering set, which I think is +gold and +gold distance gather?

@Benholio - what exactly is a "survival" stat?

Also, I know it was mentioned before that Magic Find is a large part of the game. Where does that come in and do you ever focus on that?

I'd say focus on +damage almost exclusively while leveling, taking survival stats as necessary.

+Damage > +Survival (only if needed) > +XP > others
+XP would be a pretty stupid stat if it wasn't optimal to stack that over other bonuses for the purposes of leveling.

pretty pissed they didn't give me triple monitor support. understand the game play issues. could have let me use other monitors to keep inventory and skill trees open. bastards.

thinking about upgrading the living room and stealing the 51" to mount above my triple 24's just for this game.

hd6990 ftw
yeah keeping up and inventory on one screen and skills on the other would be pointless, you see why once you play it

Re: Diablo 3

+exp is easily the worst affix you can roll on any gear. Level cap is at 60, and you are supposed to hit that just by playing through from normal to hell. Focusing on +exp so that you hit that cap, say, 1 act earlier does nothing for you in the long run. Better to just always use affixes that strengthen your character, allowing you to run through mobs more easily and finish hell in a shorter time.

+exp is of course popular in the beta because you are locked into fighting very low level mobs, and some people want to hit the level caps anyways.

I never thought about that. But now that you say that I do remember the guy I was talking to telling me how he was trying to get to lvl 13 to get some achievements, so I guess in the case of the beta, it was an option for him since there is no continuation further into the game. It was making his grind easier.

At least I figured this out ahead of time.

Re: Diablo 3

pretty sure the numbers on +xp on kill will scale up with higher levels just like every other affix.
