Why Farming Sucks in Diablo 3

In World of Warcraft players would repeat content countless times in the hopes that they would earn a particular piece of gear. We ran and reran raids for tokens, reputation and the chance an epic upgrade would drop. Since we knew what the drop rates were there was a pretty predictable progression curve, if your […]

Nephalem Valor

In order to create an element of challenge and create incentive for players to stick with a single build or spec instead of switching to the best setup for each encounter, Blizzard has implemented a concept called Nephalem Valor.
