"Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime stated that Starcraft II and the new WOW expansion would launch in 2010 but not Diablo III."

Act 3 in Nightmare, it gets tough but after I switched to a badass 2 hander and a couple of upgrades, I'm doing fine now. I was dying like crazy there for a minute.

Sweet. I caught up to you.

I'm sitting at about 34 with my Wizard. I do just short of 600 damage, which i hope to increase by eliminating some of my vitality gear and going full dps. I should be able to get it over 800 easily.

I definitely kill shit a lot quicker than anyone else I've been playing with (monk, barb, demon hunter). Although to be fair the barb stacked a SHITLOAD of health so he can tank anything. Hits don't even register on that dude. I can clear a mob nearly as fast by myself as those other 3 can clear a mob.

I can't wait to use some of the higher skills that are coming up, should be fun.

And what's funny is I'm currently hauling around a ****ing mace... I dumped my wand... The damn mace had higher dmg and it has 120 Intelligence with it.




Does anyone else find an INSANE amount of yellow crossbows and bows? It's ****ing ridiculous. Of the yellow items i found in the entire game so far, I bet at least 25% of them have been bows or crossbows. Seriously. At least 1 in every 4 yellows is a ****ing weapon for a demon hunter.

Had to make the switch.

Grand total time playing as witch doctor? I'd say about 4 hours. Taking in all the lore & story. lvl 9. Struggling against bosses. WD has nice options early on as meat shields (zombie dogs & Jar of spiders) but they don't do any damage. Beat the skeleton king just barely and took a break from him.

Then switched to Barbarian. Wow what a difference. The experience was so much better. The animations of smacking a guy and he flies up 20 feet in the air cracks me up. Worth the price of admission. Got to the same place I am with WD in 1/2 the time.

Really enjoying the new character so far.

This is the EXACT experience I went thru.
WD first has a lot of fun spells but lacks any real power aside from the bats but there goes your mana.
Then I went to Barb who I expected to play last but my god, Barbs are the Hulk with weapons.
HUGE difference!

100% my exerpience. Exact same thing.

fire bats are great with WD but burn through your mana like nobody's business.

Really wanted to get to the gargantuan someday because I think that guy looks sweet but it's not worth it struggling to get there.

They'd better make some of his late skills really sweet because the early on grind sucks.

[Sofa King]

witch doctors are severely underpowered in this game. From what I've seen, the barb is a ****ing beast, and the Wizard is a mega dps machine with great crowd control..

The monk is a good group character to have, and the demon hunter GETS ALL THE ****ING BEST DROPS.

DIII sux.

Apparently the Witch Doctor's exploding zombie dogs do massive damage.


explode for 275% weapon damage as Physical, affecting all enemies within 12 yards.



Still, that's a one time hit. They take a while before you can recast them.

The loot is random for each player but yes, the majority of rare items i've found have been high dex - which is great for my Demon Hunter. Mostly bows and a few pieces of armor here and there. Last night my buddy and I were getting crazy amounts of rare items -- again, mostly high dex items so I was getting to claim the majority of them (he is rolling as a barb)

[QuikSsurfer]

You guys trying to roll as Witch Doctors understand that their skills are DoT, right?

[Valiant]

Playing a wizard. Two friends arebarbarians,figure it would be easy? All they do is die. I like the wizard, just kite shit. Play it like a frost mage from wow. Only died once, got knocked back into a crowd of zombies and there were four of the women that vomit them up that I could not get to.

I agree on drops, I don't get shit for my class. Almostall the gear is bows xbows and quivers.

[The Franchise]

Anybody playing as a Demon Hunter?? Normally my first character is a Barb.....but I'm thinking about switching it up this time.
