7 Options You Should Know About

Just like every other game I’ve played there are several menus full of options that I only look at when there is something I don’t like. There are a few gems in here that can be really helpful, options that you would otherwise not look for that can make your experience a lot better. There’s nothing below that is a secret, nothing that you can’t find yourself, but sometimes a friendly reminder is all we need. Here are the most crucial options I’ve found in Diablo 3: » Read more…

Power Leveling in Bastian Keep

This power leveling strategy will get you a full level in about 5-10 minutes (1/20th of a level in 20 seconds at best). The problem is that you have to do the same thing over and over again, but it works until level 60. This is not my original strategy, it was posted on a few other websites and there is a nice video of it on YouTube (linked below) but here is how it works: » Read more…

Solo Inferno Build – Demon Hunter Inferno Guide

NEW – 6/28 – I have a new guide for patch 1.0.3 complete with videos! Check it out at http://www.diablo3artisans.com/demon-hunter-inferno-1-0-3/. I’m going to stop monitoring this thread, so if you have a comment for me, please leave it on the latest post! Cheers!

Hello friends and welcome. I’m Rwen and I’m a Demon Hunter junkie.  I love the class, I love the play style, and I love killing demons.  I’m here to help you get started in Inferno with my multi-part Demon Hunter Inferno Guide.

“Why Inferno?”  Why not?  “Isn’t it impossible?” It’s the end game difficulty level, and while it can be retartedly hard at times, it is playable given the right build and the right gear.  Inferno is hard, it’s frustrating, it will make you rage and want to break your keyboard, but it is doable. » Read more…

Wizard Leveling Build

The purpose of this build is to blow through most of Normal and the beginning of Nightmare difficulty. Most of it is unlocked in the late teens but some of the skills are not completely unlocked until level 30 when you enter Act IV of Normal difficulty. The build’s primary focus is doing careless damage. I recommend you equip the highest level Amethyst you can find in your bow, for health regen, and follow my Power Leveling Tips Guide. » Read more…

Power Leveling Tips

By this time most players  probably hit level 60 with their main character and either cleared or got bored with Inferno. Otherwise you might be a new player who joined a little late in hopes that the servers would be stable and you wouldn’t have to deal with technical issues. Either way, power leveling, or leveling as fast as you can is a breeze. It’s even faster if you have a friend to help you out but I’m going to assume that you’re leveling alone. Here are some crucial leveling tips based on my leveling experience. » Read more…

Demon Hunter Leveing Guide (1-60)

This is the first version of my Demon Hunter Leveling Guide. Updated for Patch 1.0.2 on 5/29/2012. Look for big updates to the leveling portion soon! Once completed it will include how and why to build, configure, gear and play your Demon Hunter as well as how to level from 1 to 60. » Read more…

Artisan Changes Patch 1.0.3

Blizzard announced it will be adjusting the required gold and requires Pages to level Blacksmithing. If you’re considering power leveling your Blacksmith tomorrow, you have been warned. It currently costs about 645,000 gold to level your Blacksmith, which is probably quite a bit more than the average player earns from level 1 to 60. That doesn’t include the 50 Pages of Blacksmithing, 50 Tomes of Blacksmithing and 45 Tomes of Secret required which I imagine most players find and sell on the auction house anyways. Blizzard stated that they want players to be able to level their Blacksmith along with their character, which is currently not likely unless you do something else to make extra gold. » Read more…

What Gem Should I Use?

There are only four types of gems in the game each with three different effects based on the type of equipment they are used in. There are 4 primary stats and then some miscellaneous effects like + Critical Damage, + Experience, etc. It’s easy to overlook that there are two ways to add damage to your weapon or that you can add experience to your helmet instead of life. » Read more…

Real Money Auction House – Delay

So much for the real money auction house. What was once expected to go live with Diablo 3 on May 15th has been pushed back at least 3 times now. Once it was pushed back to the 22nd, then the 29th and now June 12th, four full weeks after the release of the game. Will it get pushed back again?

We all know Blizzard never releases games and system on time. To include the Mystic which was removed from the game in January, to the PvP system that was once part of D3 to the Real Money Auction House. But what are we really losing? » Read more…
