What he said.

 

Is Meteor/FOrb sorc viable or should I try a Chainlightning/Forb sorc?   The thing I hate about lightning is the range of damage.... 1 to 1,000,000 or whatever.   It sure is annoying to get 1 dmg though.  It's a serious gambling spec.    The thing I hate about fire/ice is running into fire/ice immune mobs :smileysad:

Re: next blizz game

damn been spoiled by the ez mmo light styo of WOW...forgot that you lose gold and have to retrieve your body when you die...is there an xp penalty too?  died like 3 or 4 times trying to retrieve my body.    definately more fun multiplayer and gets me more hyped for d3.

If you deposit your gold in the stash I think you don't lose that.   I think there is an xp penalty, but you can't lose levels.

You still lose money, you gota drop the gold on the floor to avoid gold penalty when you die. If the server crashes and your game is gone... You lose everything though. Is there an XP penalty? I dont recall losing exp, just gold.

Re: next blizz game

I believe there's only an XP penalty in nightmare and hell.  If your gold is in your stash you still get the penalty deducted, it's just that the remainder doesn't drop on the floor.

Re: next blizz game

back in patch 0.9, i had a lvl 90ish sorc, still lvling.  everyone was still doing cow runs because they were good XP and lootz.

 

i think i did something nuub and i died.  so i went out to get my body in the cow room.   when you die, the potions thats on your belt gets dumped into your inventory.  any potions that do not fit, due to space, is thrown out on the floor, for free-for-all.  now, there are a TON of items on the floor due to mass cow killingz.  most of them are crap and not worth a second glance.  but i must have clicked on an item on the ground, because when i tried to collect my body, i could not.  and the equipped gear that i HAD, was also thrown on the ground.  my corpse "exploded" and the gear fell out due to me "accidently" equipping a gear on the ground. 

 

since it was a public game, some random guy picked up my lidless eye shield and occulus, two of the most popular items for a sorc.  took me a 1/2 a day to get them back thru my magic-find barb, but what pissed me off was that shield had a socket that had a high lvl rune in it.  and you can only socket 3 times per char thru an act 5 quest.  also, there's a quest-giver that puts your name on an item, like Rhox's Arreat's Face.  my occulus had my name on it too.

 

I kinda miss having my high lvl chars.. =\
