Thank you guys, I must of skimmed that article rather than read it in depth.
My second legendary today was from a goblin. I think it's the only one I've had from them since my return, though.
You're welcome.
Making spades is not enough to occupy one's mind.

Diablo 3 is a ton of fun. With RoS it's going to be ten tons. Do you dislike fun?
The rest of the thieves guild never finds you.
I fucking love fun.
Can someone explain me how Adventure Mode will work?
It's just a rearrangement of the old map to make it more receptive to procedural quests?
None of your followers is interested in marriage. Eirena thinks it's probably not for her, Lyndon doesn't even look like the marrying kind and Kormac vowed to forgo the pleasures of the flesh.

It wasn't black magic, it was just some sticks.
In Adventure Mode you can go wherever you want. The whole world and all waypoints are available. There are 5 randomized bounties per act when you enter, as well, which can be killing a boss or unique or going through a dungeon and so on. Bounties reward you with blood shards(used for gambling), gold, experience and rift keystones.
Rift keystones are used to access Nephalem Rifts which are randomized dungeons that sound pretty awesome.
Really looking forward to adventure mode. May go through Act V on my wizard or monk and use adventure mode for a crusader.

Wasn't Lyndon married to that girl in the quest where you recruit him? Or was he just after the artifact? What a bastard

Pretty much. It's to stop you having to do story mode and it works hand in hand with bounties.
damn everyone and their spoilers. i haven't watched a single RoS trailer, haven't read a single article, haven't looked at any pics yet. i want it ALL to be new and exciting.
no clue what adventure mode is, what rifts and bounties are, nothing.
first time i've ever done this. i usually always read everything about expansions.

Still experimenting with rewards systems only 5 days from release? Guess we know what's in store for patch 2.1.
That article is from November. Blood shards are probably what came of that.

so adventure mode is something that can be fooled around with at any level?
curious if it will be a better way to lvl up alts solo.

Nope, that blog's a few months old.

The Firebird's Finery level 70 set for Wizards is a mixed bag.
I actually use fire at the minute, luckily, thanks to Mirror Ball tripling my Magic Missile + Conflagerate primary attack (which just RIPS through packs like they are butter), plus Hydra with the Blazing rune. Should be fun.
The 4 piece bonus is kinda useless now, though, given you can revive at your corpse anyway.

Totally buy it!
I hadn't played in ages but picked it up again before 2.0 hit. It's so much more fun it's silly. Really excited about the Crusader and the glorious hammers, and all of the new things to do in RoS.
Can't stop watching this hammer gif!
So hyped. Pre-ordered physical CE >_<

Of all things in the game, how could you forget they were just BETROTHED?
And Lyndon didn't care about that either.
Yep, he's a proper scoundrel.
Man I love Mirrorball, do the same thing with conflagrate. I'm going to be sad when it gets replaced by some lvl 70 thing.
Why would it not be useless if once I hit 61 I'll be finding better armor and weapons already?

Farming for better gear is useless in the sense that it'll quickly replaced once RoS drops. Grinding exp for Paragon levels is probably the best way to spend your time right now as the levels are shared across all of your characters, even those that aren't level 60.
I'd suggest holding off on leveling your Monk, or any character, until you unlock Adventure mode.

Also, it's good to work again
You're welcome.
you need to complete act 5 to unlock it, but once thats done you can lvl 1-70 with out touching the story mode.
You're welcome.
Don't forget, everything worth doing is hard.
It seems like your asking simply to be argumentative.
But it's not useless because your getting gear and enjoying the game. Play it to have fun, not to try and max your character in 5 days.
Odds are good level 60 gear will stay relevant for longer than a couple levels. I've no idea how well they'll hold up, though.
Finding legendaries now also means you'll have their skins unlocked for the Mystic, so there's that, too.
That said, going after Paragon levels is likely the most valuable thing you can do right now.
There's a new machine and a new ring at level 70. But, it'll still be useful for training up a new Crusader or something til you get a new one. I don't have one, though =(

wtf, i try logging on battle.net from work to preorder the expansion, but then my account gets locked for suspicious activity.
blizzard really is the most anal of these services out there. Had to email them my driver license to remove the stupid authenticator app that just randomly stopped working.

The maybe it's time to stop farming. :-D
I'm not trying to be argumentative, I'm genuinely curious. I've enjoyed the game for 80+ hours a couple of years ago, so I'm obviously not here to max out in 5 days (I don't have that kind of time anyway). I just wanted to know if leveling a monk or gaining paragon levels with my wizard would be better worth my time.
If your monk is <60 and you want to max him out before the expansion hits then go for it, (it'll only take you 4-5 hours tops depending on where you're starting), but if not then you'd be best off farming experience for paragon levels.

"I worked my hands to the bone to bring you these fine goods."
Not immediately. You need to level to 70 first. Plus that 35% xp will be great for leveling any alts.
Do you expect to find a piece of godly gear for every slot in the time it takes you to gain one level?
Gear you find now will make the 60-70 trek easier and/or play it on a higher torment level. I don't think it's useless at all.
The youtube video of the guy who showed a good legendary farming route, he specifically mentioned he had gear that he didn't replace for months in the beta.

I've never crafted a hellfire ring and to craft one for my Crusader, can someone with Infernal Machines help me do some runs tonight? I am only missing one component (Writhing Spine) and I spent last night farming keys with no luck.
Thanks in advance
