Diablo - Rollback² attempts = 0. Fake news hits Diablo 3!


Rollback² attempts = 0. Fake news hits Diablo 3!

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 11:37 AM PDT

Apparently people are exploiting the rollback system now.

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 06:22 AM PDT

Read more about it here. I'm posting this here for two reasons. Firstly, to bring visibility to the issue. I know Blizzard seems to hang out on Reddit more than their own forums lately.

Secondly, I'm here to make a plea to Blizzard. You, Blizzard, issued a punishment for the exploiters. While, I think that it wasn't a severe enough punishment that wasn't my call to make. However, this is something new and it shows a willful disregard for the rules. Now, I remember a time when Blizzard actually punished players for cheating. Usually by banning the shit out of them.

So my plea to Blizzard is this. Get your balls back and ban these assholes. Stop bending over backwards for everyone and ban them.

Season Journey Tracker for Season 11 - New: Overview of Previous Seasons for Comparison

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 04:09 PM PDT

I've received many inquiries if I'd provide an update, and after hunting down all the info and confirming it (thanks /u/Nevalistis!) here it is - the Season 11 Journey Tracker!

http://d3resource.com/journey/

Since certain people who shall not be named (i.e., my group) almost missed the start in S10, I've also added a countdown timer - no excuses anymore!

In addition to that, I was personally curious to see how season duration, Haedrig's Gifts, conquests, top GR clears, and the meta changed in previous seasons. Thanks to unclaimed Gifts from previous seasons, we can even guess the S12, S13, and S14 Necro sets:

http://d3resource.com/seasons/

Thanks /u/fst_d3 and /u/svr90 for providing a meta sanity check. I know some of those (especially pre-season metas) are debatable, so please leave a comment if you think something's off. The point of that is more to show how the meta changes over time, tell people to approach S11 a bit more relaxed, and not worry too much about the meta (because when it comes to the S11 meta we all know as much as Jon Snow).

"We will be issuing temporary suspensions over the upcoming Bonus XP weekend". Served! (not really)

GR 71 Impale DH-0 Paragon, 0 ancients, 0 legendary gems, marquise gems only

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 03:11 PM PDT

I feel like Blizzard should create an incentive to killing trash mobs in GR instead of skipping them.

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 07:33 AM PDT

Many times in public games, from my experience, is that you'll have one or two people who can fly through GR without issues but the others in the group aren't as mobile or need the group to push past the density. I can do about a 65 without much issue while in a group but 70 really tests my build which seems to be where the majority of games I'm in end up. When grouped with a DH, or other characters that can move fast, they're already half way across the map while one or two of us is still sitting in the back trying to push through the huge mob of trash that still remains because A: Can't move through them fast enough with the Blood Rush or B: Blood Rush does this weird animation where I won't even teleport just walk slowly into the fray in front of me.

I can understand people wanting to push leaderboards, but it can be a frustrating experience dying over and over to a million man march of trash mobs that I can't seem to fly through on a rift level that grouped together could be accomplished quickly.

Sorry, just venting a bit. I enjoy the group play with people, and love just thrashing so many enemies on screen you can barely see your cursor. I'd just love for there to be an incentive for the group to be together instead of two people trying to move through the fray left behind, while the other two are already on the next floor.

What double XP wont give me and other honest players

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 07:28 AM PDT

Made this thread in the blizzard forums (has over 100 likes), however as Blizzard blues tend to comment here more often, here it is again.

Sorry cheaters/exploiters, botters and all round scumbags. But I felt I needed to start one more thread on this topic seeing as blizzard has given you their blessing to keep on cheating.

Dear Blizzard

Thanks for the double XP this weekend, but as Im giving the game away, Ive listed the reasons as to why double XP is a waste of an honest players time who didnt make use of the recent exploit.

  1. Double XP this weekend wont give me level 132 DPS Lendary gems. All mine will be stuck at 110, 111 and 112, because Im honest.

  2. Double XP this weekend wont enable me to get 400 paragons (in one case a player on my friends list went from paragon 1800 to over 2200 in 6 days during the exploit).

  3. Double XP wont augment my GG gear with 120, 130 or 140 augments.

  4. Double XP WONT PUNISH EXPLOITERS.

But thanks for the thought.

Oh and one small thing, statements such as.............. [quote="207560085767"]by way of apology[/quote] ..................isnt actually an apology.

An apology is generally written like this.

"Dear honest players, we apologise for not enforcing our own EULA and TOS by rolling back exploiters accounts and in some cases, banning exploiters accounts whom extensively abused this exploit and had a previous history of using botting programs during season 10."

There, thats how its done.

Cheers CC123

-------------------UPDATE--------------------

https://us.battle.net/forums/en/d3/topic/20757627629

Well, the latest news from Blizzard appears to be a disappointment.

Exploiters/cheaters/scumbags get to keep everything, thereby pretty much confirming (by way of a lack of action) that Blizzard will tolerate a degree of exploiting/cheating. At most, the worst of them can expect a temp ban.

As one guy put it in another thread "how do I get a temp ban so all my gems can get buffed to 132?"

Sorry Blizzard, but a statement that says "we are not ok with exploits" and issuing temp bans only, do very little in demonstrating that you are not ok with exploits. Only rollbacks and account bans confirm that you do not tolerate cheating/exploiting.

Double XP kinda useless?

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 10:16 AM PDT

I mean, years ago we earned the most XP by killing mobs in GRifts ... then they made it so, that you earn the major part of the XP with closing the GRift - but the XP of closing them aren't doubled.

So that buff is ment well, but feels kinda worthless.

[S11] What is the current state of classes?

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 03:20 PM PDT

For a returning player, can anyone explain what the current status of the classes are? For example, what classses are best at doing what in rifts; what classes smash it and what classes dont smash it well; how would you rank them doing in solo/group. Appreciate it diabros!

No More Nephlem Glory

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 09:21 AM PDT

I heard that blizz reads reddit more than battle.net so I'd like to implore them to please remove Nephlem Glory, greatly extend the stacks, or make it permanent.

I play on PS4, and NG simply kills the game. Basically on consoles, monster HP and player damage is not exactly the same as on PC. On console, we need to get a 10 kill massacre to get a NG orb that gives us a 2x DPS buff. This 2x DPS buff puts our DPS at the same place as PC.

The reason it's horrible is because NG orbs are directly linked to massacre bonuses. They occur frequently at first, 10, 20, 30, but eventually they only occur every 100 kills, so you have to drop your massacre chain in order to produce more orbs.

That's because there's only a short timelimit cap on the buff, and every orb increases the duration by 20 seconds.

If you are pushing a high level grift, and you can't maintain massacre chains, and manage your NG buff, it's pointless, because you will do 50% less DPS.

Please... this has to be fixed.

[Bug] Inspect window not updating while browsing Heroes in view profile

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 06:33 PM PDT

I frequently cycle through my toons of the same class with the inspect window open, to see what gear they have on. Clicking another hero should update the contents of the inspect window. Currently this isn't working. Stats in the background update but the inspect window remains the same till I close and reopen it.

Verified with clan mates as well and it didn't work for them either.

Question about Frailty and Scent of Blood

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 03:27 PM PDT

Does Frailty (specifically with scent of blood rune) "curse" enemies for a short a mount of time? Or does it simply pop the ones at <15% hp? Mainly wondering if the scent of blood rune requires a second curse to be in effect to proc the bonus damage to "cursed" enemies or not.

Geam of Ease f'up

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 07:53 PM PDT

So I spent about 2 weeks working on getting a Gem of Ease up to Level 25 so I could remove the level requirement of a wand. (Want to level my Necro up) . You know where I'm going with this.

Got it all done last night, sent it to my Necro and spent the next 30 minutes pissed I just wasted it and now have to redo it all over again.

Idea: Leaderboards for all sets/classes

Posted: 14 Jul 2017 07:32 AM PDT

I was thinkering with this idea for a while. What if Blizzard implements leaderboards for each set/class? This would be so awesome to have in the game and I think you won't see anymore 1 build to dominate them all per class, nor will see 1000 players with same spec on the specific class leaderboard. For example, if you wanna fully invest and go for Inarius, then do your best to attain number 1 on leaderboards. I think that this would bring more diversity on the leaderboards and more important to the player's taste and gameplay preferences. What do you guys think? I don't know if someone else brought this to the table until now, just wanted to point my thoughts. Cheers!
