Enjoying my demon hunter i was the last of my group to get in took me an hour everyone else got in straight away , Downed normal in 9hours and 12 minutes , But we weren't really rushing pretty chilled group.


The hardest thing for me is narrowing down skills , because i am still in the mindset from when i use to play World of Warcraft to key bind just about all my skills.

Other than that I like the game so far even if it does feel like some parts of the game have been rushed, And the amount of screen crap you get all of the time , achievement spams from you and friends , and kill steaks are semi annoying but something I will eventually get used to I guess


The other thing I found a little stupid is the Blacksmithing and Jewel crafting page drops are white so they are easily missed 

Oh and then there is this bug that has caused people to not being able to play at all

"" When playing a Demon Hunter, giving a shield to your Templar before you kill Jondar and hire him can disconnect you from Battle.net. """

All and all pretty fun , Apart from the server stability , but lets face it we all knew this was going to happen

Trademe - someone so pissed off with the first day might sell it off cheap :)

So I went to play again last night and my character was gone. No sign of it anywhere. Started again and double checked to see if I missed anything, was there a save button I missed, no nothing so lets hope it does not happen again. I checked last night after I finished and it loaded again fine so hopefully a one off as I would hate to loss a higher level character. I think it looks and sounds amazing.

Well I died for the first time last night, I am Level 14, not bad for a first time.

It's weird since I had plenty of health vials and they should be used automatically.

Hehe I died a few times, especially when trying to kill The Butcher... Anyhow, I find the cool-off time after using using potion to heal is too long :-(

So far I have been past the Butcher and only died to trash, Boss's seem easy enough (possibly from my time playing WoW)

I'm in Act II - Caldeum - now, the monsters there are definitely a bit harder, died few times due to inability to heal quick enough.

Metacritic only has it at 86%, lower than I expected, but inline with my own review score if I was to give one out. I am struggling to get my mouse to click enemies sometimes, is anyone else having that issue?

Not that long to be honest. Probably total of 10 hours max (loosely).

Level 32 Monk & completed Normal. Had a play on nightmare with a couple of mates so that looks like a big jump! A full run through nightmare should get you to level 50 & then the last 10 levels in Hell.


But right now I have to farm... On one of the last boss's in Act 4 I had the plan drop for the 'Staff of Herding' Which is the staff you need to craft to get to the new secret level

Spent 3 hours yesterday farming the mats needed & have one so far only 2 more to get then spend $150k crafting it & I will be killing unicorns..

Currently trying to get Liquid Rainbow haha
