I tried to create a Crusader since it showed up in the character menu. No luck.

Yah, it's gonna suck getting leveling the crusader after getting so much free xp before the expansion hits!

Nah, just find a socketed helm and a hellfire ring and you're good.

Blizz could make some extra money if they did like a lot of the MOBA games do and allow folks to buy some extra EXP time.

You could buy say 5 hours of game play @ +50%exp or something like that.

Diamonds recently became searchable on the auction house and are selling for stupid amounts. If you're like me and have been picking them up and not doing anything you can make a couple million easily, more if you're played a lot. Regular star diamonds were selling for 2.5.

Considering all current gems will be worthless in reaper of souls I would unload everything you've got and get some gold so you have enough for crafting at level 70. I doubt the diamond price will stay this high for long.

What will gold be good for in RoS? Crafting and repairs?

Pretty much. More to the point, our current gems and crafting mats will be worthless. Level 61-70 recipes use different materials and gems will drop from monsters that are better than the max-level gems in the game today.

Also, without an auction house there will be no quick way to get gold.

A friend of mine found a really good item and sold it for over 600,000,000 a year or so ago. I think I have occasionally come close to having 10,000,000. He is so gonna outgear/craft me in RoS. I didn't mind it so much now since that could only afford him one good item off the AH.

If you find the plans for the Hallowed Defender set you should be able to sell it for 100million+ at the moment. I made the mistake of teaching it to my blacksmith, which means it will never drop for me again...

Grinding items and paragon exp is getting stale pre-release for me. I really hope all the new added modes and features will provide for some real replayability like I had with D2.

I'd really like them to release the information regarding increases in legendary drop rates for increasing Torment levels. I've been trying to test legendary drop rates now comparing normal vs torment 1 and haven't seen much of a difference yet. I know there are "torment only" items, but I'm not sure the drop rate seems to be any different for ones not on the list.

As a long time Diablo fan, I'd really like to see this expansion making the game truly fun again.

Are they always going to account bind the legendaries? Sure would be nice to unload some of these to other players later on.

Yes, they'll always be account bound.

They are getting rid of the AH, there's no great way to unload them. You'll notice however that you can trade the legendaries with group members for two hours after you get one.

Thinking about getting into Diablo III. Is the PC or Xbox version better? Also, what is up with the auction house?

I played a lot of DII and still have 100,000 FG from D2jsp website that I could spend (not sure if anyone knows what I'm talking about).

I just generally want to know if it is worth getting into.

The way it is now is a lot more reminiscent of oldschool D2, and yes I know what d2jsp is to help back my opinion .

There isn't trading anymore but the excitement of drops is back to where it should be.

You can't trade at all?

What am I supposed to spend all that FG on? I coulda bought like 4 08Valks, several sets of 32020s and like a perfect zeal pally. Not including a ton of other stuff.

hmm.. I suppose you could use it on godly rares in the future... those can still be traded, BUT legendaries and sets no go.

I should buy more party hats.

One more week... Hopefully I manage to finish infamous before Tuesday!

I'm screwed between ROS, FFX HD today, and Infamous on Friday.

Yeah I'm kind of dealing with titanfall addiction so dunno when I will get this.

Looks like Blizzard finally found a way to get me back into Diablo.

Been playing this a lot lately, even finally got my first Hellfire Rings, and could see sitting Infamous on the shelf to play ROS first. Loot 2.0 has really changed the pace of the game, and I've been enjoying the loot hunt again, as well as some of the legendary pieces that can alter your playstyle. Looking forward to Act V next week, as well as finally starting up Adventure mode.

I like playing with a semi-regular group. Even if you all are a bunch of weirdos from TexAgs.

The clan and loot 2.0 have made the game as fun as it should have always been. I am hoping the extra bells and whistles in the expansion continue to improve it.

I definitely enjoy the new system and clan aspect as well. Fun to always have ags to play with.

All very interesting. I have too many other games on my list to play to pick this up right now, but I'll be picking this up for the xbone or MAYBE PC after a while.

I love the Diablo franchise, but am not enough of a grinder to play with other people. I figure for playing solo, the console might be the way to go.

I've always been a diablo soloer myself, but the texags clan is pretty fun!

Found an awesome sword last night, kinda sad it's going to be worthless in a few days!

Texags clan.

The clan system has been great, been enjoying playing with some of the Ags off of here. Heading to NYC on Friday, but will be back for the xpac and looking running through adventure mode with y'all.

That said, after a great drought (for me) of gaming goodness I've become overwhelmed with stuff I've got sitting around.

FFX Remaster came in last night (forgot I had preordered).
Infamous Second Son - this Friday
The Banner Saga - still sitting and waiting for me on Steam
Xenoblade Chronicles - found for cheap, not a recent game, but supposed to be on of the best recent RPGs out there.
South Park:The Stick of Truth - My Jew needs some love.
Shadowrun Returns: DLC
The Last of Us: DLC
Bioshock Infinite: DLC

Been a lot of good stuff to come out in a little over a month's time!
