Hej D3X, jeg er ny her inde. Har lige købt og betalt for udvidelsen, selvfølgelig i deluxe version. Jeg har ikke spillet D3 i lang tid og har ikke den store forstand på udvidelsen. Har I nogle tips til hvad jeg bør læse op på?.. Måske et par ideer til hvad jeg kan farme/lvl'e/gøre klar til udvidelsen?

Med venlig hilsen
TheDomino

For os der går og ser frem til pvp er det en glædelig nyhed

Godmorgen allesammen!

Update:Hvis I overvejer at tage med og kommer fra Fyn, men ikke har nogen transportmuligheder, så har Tranq tilbudt at lege taxa og hente jer og tage jer med til lan'et. Han har plads til 2 personer, så skynd jer at fange ham hvis I vil sikre jer en af pladserne.




Hvert år mødes hundrede vis af folk til computer-træf/net-party/LAN. Et arrangement, hvor en masse spilleglade computerfolk mødes, og sætter deres medbragte computere i et kæmpe netværk, hvor de spiller, hygger og konkurrerer i nogle af tidens mest populære computerspil. I år regner man med at der kommer op mod 1000 deltagere! Vi har her ved Diablo3x.dk fået æren af at stå for hele Diablo III delen til eventet, hvor vi skal afholde konkurrencer og lave en masse sjov og ballade med jer.

LAN'et er i år blevet flyttet til en ny og noget større lokation, Fredericia Messecenter, og bliver afholdt fra den 12. oktober til den 14. oktober, altså bare om en måned! Til eventet vil der blive afholdt større turneringer i LoL, BF3, CS:GO og andre spil med flotte premier, og monstro vi ikke også har lidt at dele ud til dem som deltager i vores Diablo III konkurrencer.

Som I kan se for oven står Lasser Rimmer og Carsten Eskelund i flot figur, de har valgt at ligge vejen forbi lan'et og giver en optræden, det bliver stort!

Billetbestillingen er netop blevet frigivet så det gælder om at være hurtige så I kan sikre jer en billet! Der er endvidere blevet sørget for at vi kan få lov at sidde sammen og hygge os i stemningsfulde Diablo III omgivelser. Billetten bestilles via billetnet på følgende måde:

• Køb en billet
  Billetter købes på BilletNet
• Tilmeld dig til NPF #13 på npf.dk
  Dette kræver at du har en bruger på npf.dk, oprettes her, og at du er logget på. Herefter kan du tilmelde dig arrangementet.
  Under tilmeldingen skal du tilmelde dig gruppen - Diablo3x.dk hvor kodeordet til denne gruppe er: diablo
  Det er vigtigt at I tilmelder jeg denne gruppe da det er den eneste mulighed jeg har for at holde styr på hvor mange vi deltager.
• Plads reservation
  Helt eksklusivt har vi har fået en aftale med NPF om at vi får lov at sidde sammen alle fra Diablo3x.dk. Når vi har et overblik over hvor mange vi er der skal af sted kommer nærmere info omkring plads reservation.

Så kom tidspunktet hvor Blizzard løfter sløret for hvad de har arbejdet med de sidste par måneder. Det ser ud til at de har fundet en perfekt løsning på hele "magic find problemet"!!

Introducing the Paragon System
by Jay Wilson 20 Aug 2012 16:00 UTC 26

While working on patch 1.0.4, we came up with all sorts of ideas for ways to improve Diablo III. Some of them you’ve probably already seen, such as the general systems changes, the awesome buffs for Legendaries, and the improvements we’re making to the barbarian, demon hunter, monk, witch doctor, and wizard. The entire team really banded together to get as much into this patch as possible, and one of the exciting changes I’d like to tell you about today is called the Paragon system.

Two of the issues we’ve been thinking about while working on patch 1.0.4 have been what to do with Magic Find and how to give level-60 players who aren’t satisfied with the item hunt something more to strive for. I’m sure many of you are aware of the blog we posted proposing some different Magic Find gear-swapping solutions, as well as our general thoughts on how rewarding the game is once you hit level 60. The Paragon system is designed to help us address these concerns — but before we get into exactly how it works, let’s go over these two core issues in a little more detail.

Magic Find
As you may remember, we posed a number of possible solutions to the gear-swapping issue and asked you to give us your feedback. While we saw some support for a couple of the options, what your responses ultimately told us was that although having to swap into Magic Find gear mid-fight annoyed some of you greatly, others were ambivalent, didn’t gear swap themselves, or — in a few cases — wanted to see gear-swappers penalized in some fashion. Those who do swap gear generally do so for the raw power advantage it gives, so we wanted any solution we went with to provide the same level of power. Overall, our analysis of the situation really hammered home one stark truth: we needed to come up with a way to make our Magic Find system more fun.

Level 60 Rewards
We understand that some players feel frustrated once they hit level 60 because they no longer feel like they’re making progress. It can be demoralizing to play for an hour, not get any drops, and also be out a big chunk of gold from repair costs. Your play session may not only end without an upgrade, it can wind up being a net loss. Everyone wants to feel like they’re making some progress when they log in, even if they don’t get that new sword.

Introducing the Paragon System
The new Paragon system coming in patch 1.0.4 is designed to address Magic Find gear-swapping while providing players who’ve reached level 60 with an extended progression system.

Here’s how it works:

• After you hit level 60, any further experience you earn from killing monsters will begin to count toward Paragon levels
• There are 100 Paragon levels
• Every Paragon level will reward you with:
  
  • Core stats such as Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, and Vitality in amounts similar to what you’d gain from a normal level
  • 3% Magic Find and 3% Gold Find

• In addition, a distinctive increasingly-impressive border will surround your character portrait in the in-game party frame to denote your Paragon progression, with a new frame earned after every ten levels. Your Paragon level will also be visible to other players wherever your normal level is shown

We know that a lot of you out there are level 60 — maybe on multiple characters — and this system provides a way to make progress every time you log in to the game.

To support the new system, Nephalem Valor (NV) will now also provide a 15% experience bonus per stack, applicable toward Paragon levels. The first Paragon level should take about as long as it took most players to get from level 59 to 60, and the experience requirement will rise from there. The time to reach the upper Paragon levels approximates the long-term time investment required to get a level 99 character in Diablo II.

… What Was That About Magic Find On Items?
While the benefits to progression are obvious, you may be asking how this impacts Magic Find on items. We wanted to find a solution that was not only very forgiving of gear swapping, but one that would ultimately help us slowly and gently move Magic Find off of items in the future. It’s such an intrinsically important stat to the core purpose of playing the game that tying it to gear — which is a customization system in many ways — is ultimately an approach that would continue to cause problems. We need to transition away from it, and do so in a way that doesn’t flip the entire game end-over-end.

With the Paragon system in place, we’re capping Magic Find and Gold Find to 300% (before Nephalem Valor). This means that without any Magic Find gear at all, you’ll hit the cap when you reach Paragon level 100. This way, you can continue wearing your current Magic Find gear as you slowly but surely work to gain Paragon levels. Eventually, once you hit Paragon level 100, you’ll have the freedom to completely focus every slot on stats that help your character kill stuff faster and stay alive longer. The idea is that if you’re currently swapping gear in and out for the Magic Find bonuses, you can continue to do so… but gain enough Paragon levels, and you won’t need to anymore.
It’s also worth reiterating is that Nephalem Valor will not count towards the cap, which means the maximum will be 375% MF/GF at Paragon level 100 with 5five stacks of NV.

Phew…
The Paragon system is a fairly big addition to the game, and one we’re pretty excited about. On behalf of the entire Diablo III development team, we hope you enjoy the changes we’re making with patch 1.0.4, and we look forward to seeing you in-game when it releases. Stay tuned to Diablo3.com for the final patch notes and official launch announcement in the days ahead.

Det ser meget lovende ud! Synes det er en helt genial måde de har valgt at gribe det an på! Nu bliver der noget at progresse efter igen - JA TAK!

Blizzard har netop løftet sløret på det første developer preview der berører de forskellige class-ændringer!

Patch 1.0.4 Preview: Barbarian

One of our primary goals with class changes in patch 1.0.4 is to help improve build diversity. Of course, this has been a goal for the Diablo III development team since launch, but our approach this patch has been a little different. For 1.0.4, we're taking a good look at some of the most unpopular skills for each class, figuring out why they aren't being used in your builds, and then seeing how we can make them better — either by redesigning how they work or just buffing the hell out of them.
For barbarians, we focused on improving the following areas:

• Bash and Cleave are not very attractive compared to Frenzy
  
• Many of the damage-oriented Fury Spenders don't do enough damage to justify the spot on your bar

          

Fury Generators
Frenzy:
It’s easy to see why Frenzy is the most popular Fury Generator right now. It generates a solid amount of Fury, it has the highest single-target damage of any Fury generator, and it has the highest single-target healing using Life on Hit. The bonus attack speed also provides good combat mobility as well as the option to focus all your damage on a single target or distribute it between multiple targets as needed. We're going to buff Bash and Cleave to be viable alternatives to Frenzy for people who would like to try a different play style.

Bash:
From a design perspective, Bash should be the definitive choice when it comes to maximizing your Fury generation. That’s not the currently the case, and given the current state of the game, this means attacking the problem from two sides. First, we need to make Fury a more attractive resource to build up (which also means making Fury Spenders more attractive, which I talk about below). Second, we’re going to increase the amount of Fury generated by Bash from 6 to 8, as well as the amount of weapon damage done by Bash from 150% to 165%. The goal is to make Bash not only a very compelling option if you decide you want to focus on Fury generation, but also an appealing single-target alternative to Frenzy if you don’t enjoy its mechanics (like having to manage Frenzy stacks). Currently, Frenzy surpasses Bash in single-target damage as soon as you have your third stack of Frenzy, and it feels like the breakpoint should be around the fourth stack instead. These changes should help better balance the appeal of the two skills.

Cleave:
Looking at the three basic Fury Generators (Frenzy, Bash and Cleave), the role of Cleave is fairly straight-forward: it should be the clear winner when there is more than one target to hit. In a single-target situation, however, Cleave will always perform worse than Bash and Frenzy. While this is intended to a degree, the amount of single-target damage you currently have to give up feels too great to make the trade-off worthwhile. At an extreme, if Cleave did almost exactly the same damage as Bash or Frenzy, but had the ability to hit a second target when one was around, Cleave would definitely become that “clear winner.” So, to make it more appealing to some players, our goal is then to find that sweet spot between where Cleave is now and doing the same single-target as Frenzy and Bash. We’re going to increase both the damage and proc coefficient on Cleave to close the gap when fighting a single target.

          

Fury Spenders
For many players, using Hammer of the Ancients, Seismic Slam, or Rend just doesn’t seem worth it. To make these skills more attractive, we're going to straight up buff their damage across the board. How much? Well, we noticed that more players use Battle Rage than any of these other Fury Spenders, but Battle Rage is less exciting to use and doesn’t quite evoke the same visceral joy. So, we used Battle Rage and Frenzy as our starting point. We basically asked ourselves the question "How much damage would Hammer of the Ancients have to do in order to make Frenzy + Hammer [of the Ancients] as appealing as Frenzy + Battle Rage?" Players who really want to go the extra mile for the most damage could go so far as to combine all three skills together, so we kept that in mind as well.

Hammer of the Ancients vs. Battle Rage was a simple starting point, but we used similar approaches with Seismic Slam, and Rend. The basic idea was: Fury generation isn’t attractive to players because Fury spending isn’t attractive to players, so what do the numbers need to be to fix that? To continue using Hammer of the Ancients as an example:

• We're increasing its base damage from 200% to 325%
• We're increasing the damage for Rolling Thunder from 155% to 275%
• We’re increasing the damage for Smash from 270% to 406%

And to provide another example, here’s what we’re doing with Rend:

• Weapon damage increased from 210% over 3 seconds to 700% over 5 seconds
• Lacerate weapon damage increased from 271% over 3 seconds to 903% over 5 seconds
• Bloodbath weapon damage increased from 60% over 3 seconds to 100% over 5 second

With these improvements (Whirlwind and Seismic Slam will be receiving similar tweaks to improve their viability), we hope to see Fury Spenders become more appealing for all levels of play.

          

But What About…
I'll close by adding that there are no changes planned for either Sprint or Battle Rage, so all you crazy double tornado barbarians will still be able to log in after 1.0.4 goes live and continue with your current build. Or, you can try out some of the new toys we’re adding. Either way, we hope you have fun and are looking forward to 1.0.4!
