Last I checked, paypal still wasn't working. I don't want no blizzard bux.

Actually Brandon, Paypal works. But the in-game link doesn't. Follow this link instead to set it up:

Yar! Got it working, and put up 10 auctions. I guess we'll see how this goes.

Uh oh, attack speed nerfs coming. Blizzard is taking their typical heavy-handed approach and basically cutting all IAS values in half. So, base weapon speeds won't be affected, but any attack speed bonuses on other equipment will be nerfed severely. Everyone thought they would be doing a 'diminishing returns' kinda deal, but evidently not. This is going to hurt Monks severely since we depend on IAS not just for damage but for spirit generation and sustain (life on hit).

I saw a black mage with proper capitalization and got excited.

For a small moment.

the IAS nerfs will come in the same patch as the Infeno nerfs, so I wouldn't worry about it too much.

This is gonna hurt me a lot too. Cutting in half... my attack speed might go down by 25% or more.. that's about the same as a frenzy shrine.

1.0.3 comes out today. Guess I won't get to see what it's like until 2 weeks later since I leave today for annual training with my unit.

[zircon]

Wow, two popular streamers (Kripparian and Krippi) just beat Inferno Diablo... on Hardcore. Amazing.

Patch is interesting so far. The attack speed nerf means my casting animations are a little longer than before, so I get caught by mobs more often mid cast now. I was only using 15% on one piece, so it's not a big adjustment. Glass canon isn't as viable any more since repair costs went up so much. Death actually carries some weight now which is good.

The damage nerf in the higher acts means I can actually wear my resist gear and not get one shotted still, so yay for that. I'm down from 42K DPS to 19 now wearing it though.

Thankfully I was able to down the Siegebreaker before the patch hit today. No way I'd be able to handle reflect damage AND an enrage timer with my DPS cut in half.

I was slowly doing Siegebreaker runs before the patch and dying left and right from surprise ranged attacks. With the changes in drop rates I'll probably be doing Warden/Butcher runs with a 5 stack then hit Whimsyshire. Probably not as good loot wise, but a much safer route until I get my resists/health up some more.
