exec- not sure about improving what you've got like in skyrim - vendors have stuff that is a little better and the gold AH hos lots of things for not too much - may have changed since the $$ auction house went live, dunno.

I checked on the D3 forums and now have a Farmcille Stun Lock WD - adding as much as I can find - i'm up to about a 8-10 % chance and I've had yellow mobs get completely stunlocked and just burn them down - I can put a whole bunch of critters on somebody - gargantua, 3 dogs, and a bunch of fetishes.

Now at 51 about to start act4 nm

Moving right along there John.. I'm at lvl 39 now and just started ActII NM. I have been working on collecting the Whimsyshire pieces as I have moved along through the game. I have the shin bone and black mushroom. Gotta save up G100K for the item that Squirt sells. Anybody else sold anything on the $$ AH? I have sold two items.. Both small potatoes, but I have made $3... lol Not gonna quit my day job, but it's nice to get a little something back. I have a feeling that the amount I'm able to sell things for will increase as my level does. I know a few close friends that have sold items for $200.. Lucky Bastages.

finished act 1 inferno. I had to farm a long time to get $$ for better gear - I was lucky and got a spear that sold for $1.7MM so I could upgrade a couple of pieces. Got a weapon off butcher that is probably worth $1MM.

whew. got him on the 7th try in a row. I think he is the hardest for me.

I'm at level 15. How do you identify items? I have at least 6 items that need to be identified.

Exec - right click on them. BTW magic find is really important. At 60 you get stacks of valor - up to 5 - which are worth 15% MF each - When I have 5 stacks + ~125 MF from my gear, you get better stuff. I have found 5 legendaries in the last week or so, one of which was very sweet, others in the 20-50k range. Resist all items become very important once you get to hell. I'm running about 550-650 RA, 30k life, 27k dps - hybrid witch docta build.

How do you beat Diablo? I'm a barbarian level 31. Do I need to go back to previous levels and get more gold to buy a better weapon?

I had him down to 60% or so, then he transported me to another area where I died.

sounds like both your armor and weapon may be light - I play WD so the strategy is different. The ones when he transports you are usually pretty easy - hit him with all you timer sensitive stuff, kite, kite, kite. When you get back to the last Diablo, which is about 50% there are a couple of health fonts you can get to.

it goes normal, nightmare, hell, and inferno - same basic game but you need get to 60 for all skills and then start putting together very specific builds bases on your class. Mobs get much more difficult. I have finished act1 inferno, but can't get past that until i get some much better gear. it pretty much becomes gear dependent - the lowered the drop rates of good stuff in the last patch or two...mebbe they fix it.
