I recently read an article on mosquitos. Turns out if you have an O type blood they love feasting on you, and if you have an A type blood they don't like it.

True, you couldn't rest anywhere (in the middle of a battle or when enemies were nearby) but then you just walk around the corner / few steps away and then you can rest. That's what Im looking for. A way to ensure I approach every encounter at full HP and abilities. It seems strange to me that people think its normal that every single enemy in the game is at full capabilities and the only six mofo's on the entire continent that don't have that advantage are the people in your party. -

Difficulty level, console commands, check boxes... I don't care. Im down for whatever gives the ability to freely rest. -

Im not worried about stress, Im worried about fun. I want to play the game and enjoy the story, not wrestle with mechanics designed to inconvenience me. But in the interests of being productive maybe I can offer a solution instead of a criticism. Im willing to toss an extra $20 into the kitty if one of the devs could code in a console command that provides party wide resting at any location, and I'll also need a way to map it to the "R" key. By this I mean the Health globe, not the Stamina globe, just so theres no further confusion. -
Go buy yourself a nice convertible Porche LC, that will right your ship. Cat got deballed yesterday, will be picking him up on the way home from work.

I have a 32MB/s connection at home and its pretty expensive (I don't pay the bills so Im not sure how much but I hear my wife complain about it). If I have a data limit Ive never hit it, even when I used to WoW for hours a day.

My concern doesn't lie with the globe that refills itself after every encounter. It lies with the globe that only goes down and only has one way to replenish. That's what Im referring to, healing your Health. Whats the solution for when Im 5 levels deep and at full Stamina but one hit away from dying because Im at 5 Health? Get on my hiking boots, right? -

Rhetoric: Yes and no. I want to learn more about it, and I am asking questions because I don't know enough about it. We seem to be on the same level of speculation, I wouldn't be surprised either if it was A, B & a variant of C (See Tamerlane's post). Different difficulty levels would (or at least should) affect this imo, IF Resting functions like your ABC. Casual = Heals to full health, can Rest as much as you want. Hardcore = Heals little health, can Rest once-in-a-while and/or once every in-game Day. That would be an awesome solution but I don't think its in the scope of their budget. Fingers crossed. -
I love the way you bring the pimp hand to silly posts, kgambit. Rostere and Drowsy have massive butthurt over the US so they are going to keep you busy.

Are these rhetorical questions? The trend for PE seems to be to take an existing mechanic and add a disincentive to use it, because degenerative blah blah. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see the end result of camping to include: a) not heal you all the way to 100%, b) only allow you to rest on some predetermined interval or c) constantly bombarding you with random encounters every time you try to rest. -

That is correct: As Im lawn mowering a map, the last thing I want to do is revisit the far corner 5 times to rest. Oh the hilarity if one of the big donors created a party teleporting amulet that instantly moved you to a campsite and back. Or better, the respawning mooks you guys clamor for out of "realism" would stake out the obvious fixed location camp site and murder you while you sleep. Oh well, theres always the mod community. Is there some other method? -

My understanding is that there is no such thing as a non-viable build. Slightly less efficient? Sure. But any build on any "class" is totally doable. I do like defined roles in my classes. -

Maybe my mind will be blown but most of the mechanics as described so far sound like a soup sandwich to me. 1) No healing. C'mon man. 2) No resurrection. I guess this is a non factor since we cant die unless there is a TPW, which means reload anyway. 3) No fast travel. 4) Walking everywhere to go heal / rest / regain abilities. See above for good times. 5) No kill xp. 6) All classes can be all things. -
I suppose that will give me an excuse to try a different class.

FYI, you can still use an offhand quiver even when using a 2-handed crossbow.

Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls - new expansion
Gfted1 replied to IndiraLightfoot's topic in Computer and Console
Wait, what is this. The console version allows crafting? Are there a bunch of mats that now drop or can be found in chests? Disregard this, Im dumb. Don't know what I was thinking. -
This is awesome. Are their "better" wives to be had? If not, may as well marry her.

The tumor only affected her ability to read English but not her native language? Kooky. Reminds me of the guy who woke up only able to speak Swedish.
