[citation][nom]BigMack70[/nom]They don't sell deer in the auction house.The difference between Diablo 3 and Diablo 2 (I haven't played TL so I can't speak for that) is that in Diablo 2, loot is interesting, and in Diablo 3 it's not. So in Diablo 2, you could get useful gear that happened to not be the rarest high level gear in the game. In Diablo 3, you more or less can't. In Diablo 3, every character basically farms for gear with increasingly close to perfect rolls on:+primary stat+vit+res all+critThat's what you call a snoozefest. And you have no idea how bad the drops are in D3. It's not an issue of patience - it's an issue of the game balance and drop rates CLEARLY being designed with the auction house in mind. If you're not using the auction house in Diablo 3, you're doing it wrong, by design.[/citation]
yea... due to the worsening pain in my hands, im relying on dragon 12 more and more now... i dont catch every mistake it makes, and its not 100% setup yet...
now to your second point, all those drops come from somewhere, which means that someone went thought he game when it was harder, and got the better gear so they could farm better gear without relying on the AH
but i do get what you are saying...
