How do you get to the secret Whimsyshire level in Diablo 3? Easy, collect 5 rare materials and a rare pattern, combine them, and you’re in! It’s that simple. But really… this isn’t for the faint of heart. Make sure you cancel your dinner plans tonight and call off movie night with your significant other. » Read more…
Wizard Inferno Build
A Wizard was reportedly one of the very first classes to solo kill Diablo on Inferno difficulty. The trick that was used was to kite Diablo while using damage over time and companion support. The build used was an elective build that utilized companions, massive survival skills, quick-cast AoEs, increased damage passives and the likes. This build is built to kill just about anything you can find as long as you have enough time to sit around and kite, cast, dodge and dance. Here’s how it works: » Read more…
How to Find and Buy Cheap Gear off the Auction House
I mentioned yesterday in my 9 mistakes players make in Diablo 3 that people are missing out on auction house gear. I said that you only need 30,000-50,000 gold to upgrade your gear. This is an estimate since most of my characters are already geared up but I still feel it’s possible. Here’s how it works. » Read more…
Best Wizard Build
The following build is the best Wizard build I could find. It’s a strong DPS build and will work well in both cooperative/group and solo play. It’s geared towards doing high damage with abilities that you can use when you need to get out of trouble or stay alive a little longer to do more damage. As with all the diablo 3 builds on this site, this should act as a basis for the build that works best for your gear and situation. » Read more…

Is it possible to make gold with your Jeweler? Yes, but right now a lot of players are just giving their money away when combining the wrong gems. If you haven’t already, you need to level your jeweler.

Demon Hunter Solo Leveling Build
If you play a Demon Hunter solo after playing a Barbarian or a Monk you’ll be quick to note how much moving around you need to do. Depending on the way you gear your Demon Hunter you’re not really going to want to stand there and allow yourself to be hit (except maybe in Normal difficulty). This means that you’ll almost always be kiting enemies. This build gives you a good balance of damage, mobility, survival and energy regeneration. It’s not exactly a hardcore build but you could possibly use it as a basis for one.
Vendor Your Magic Gear!
If you haven’t noticed already, the market for trade goods has already collapsed. I wrote yesterday about how to make gold with subtle essences as their auction house value gets closer and closer to their vendor value. The vendor value of Subtle Essence is 14 gold, Shimmering Essence is 30 gold. Magic items, on the other hand, have somewhat inflated vendor prices considering the low material prices. » Read more…
