Magic Find Swapping

Swapping in your +Magic Find gear right before a boss dies is not going to be an option for long. I mentioned last week that this is a great opportunity to make gold between now and the implementation of a fix, since gear with damage stats and magic find will jump in value when Blizzard […]

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 […]

The 9 Biggest Mistakes Players are Making in Diablo 3

We’re sitting at almost exactly 1 week since Diablo 3 was released in the US and around the world. We’ve seen a lot of things we didn’t expect and others that we completely saw coming. My prediction that the RMAH would get pushed back again came true (it’ll go live on May 29th) – but […]

Black Mushrooms, Liquid Rainbows and Gibbering Gemstones

If you haven’t realized already, I’ve been distracted by a little thing called Mists of Pandaria. It turns out they released the beta a bit prematurely in an attempt to entertain soon to be Diablo 3 players like myself before Diablo 3 comes out. It worked. As I bring my attention back to Diablo 3 […]

Buying and Selling Gold in Diablo 3

When is the right time to buy and sell gold in Diablo 3? Buying it, maybe never. Selling it, as soon as possible. Consider that gold is going to be in huge demand early in the game. Players are going to be racing to level their artisans, acquire high tier gems, buy exquisite essences and […]

Witch Doctor Stat Preview

The Witch Doctor is the last of the 5 classes I took a look at with the goal of finding out which stats and equipment will be the most important for each class. In a few days I’m going to take all 5 classes and combine them in order to get a good picture of […]

Monk Stat Preview

The Monk plays much like I imagine a Pandarian Monk to play, with quick attacks and a spirit based energy system it dashes around the targets using Dashing Strike. In the beta, I’ve used fist weapons for a long time which is a piece of equipment unique to the Monk. As with the other 4 […]

Barbarian Stats Preview

The barbarian’s main abilities are physical melee attacks like Bash and Hammer of the Ancients. Most similar to World of Warcraft’s Warrior class, the barbarian generates fury, instead of of rage. and exhausts it with special abilities. Your barbarian’s build will be focused on fury generation and then hard hitting ways to exhaust accumulated fury. […]

Demon Hunter Stats Preview

The Demon Hunter reminds me, and probably a lot of people, of the Hunter in World of Warcraft. They keep their distance from their targets, use crossbows, bows and traps and have practically no melee ability. If you choose to play a Demon Hunter you’re going to want to have at least a general idea […]

Gold Find Gear for Diablo 3 Farmers

When it comes to farming in Diablo 3 there are several things we can do to increase how much we make in a given amount of time. We will want to select the right dungeons for our gear and ability as well as selecting ones that make it easier or more likely to find elite […]
