I think I’m going Druid for seasonal play. My main is a Necro 78 (I shudder to think what the nerfs did to that) and I got my alt Ice Sorceress to Nightmare yesterday (she’s lvl51, beat the capstone at 50)

Yeah, and they are doing another chat with the developers on Friday addressing the issues. I think they are surprised by just how vitriolic the response has been.  I’m kinda glad I decided against using a sorceress for the season given how squishy the class is.  It’s my alt that I’ve taken to 49 over the past week; my…

And then had to write a whole new article to correct it.

Yeah, they need to put someone else on the Diablo IV beat, because Claire has been quite wrong on any number of things relating the game.

You can use sacred and ancestral items before level 100. My Necro has all sacred items except for one ancestral at level 78. What it’s seeming to say is that the max level required by sacred items is 60 and ancestral is 80 instead of varying level requirements.

Our air quality index for Chicago on my weather app is showing as moderate. (70) and on Accuweather its showing up as 58.  It’s much better than the 130 or so of yesterday

Not surprising it’s getting an upgrade.  Seems like it makes all the sense in the world now that PS5s are far more readily available.  Also, “composter” in your subheading should be fixed, even if it’s an amusing slip.

I beat it a few months ago; it was fun. Unfortunately, D:OS1 (I bought the Bundle on Series X earlier in the year) is not nearly as fun as OS2 streamlined certain things that made managing inventory/battle better than 1.

That’s one reason why I ended up dropping down to “Adventurer mode” eventually; all the fire fights (Saving that one apprentice (Gwynn?) from hanging in Act 2 was the most ridiculous fight when it became one big super inferno) or cursed fire.  I beat the game on that mode, but the fires were still SO MUCH!

Civil Engineer here (roadway design, not structural in Illinois) and you’re exactly correct. Besides, it’s inspectors/engineers themselves who declare things either functionally obsolete or rate them structurally deficient. They tend to rate those things well ahead of actual failure, but to extend those lifetimes they…

I try to only fly for trips that are longer than an 8 hour drive; even frequently did DragonCon trips in one day driving from Chi to Atl (about 11 hours or so) up until the last few days when parking costs were $55 a day for 5 days lol.

In the end, it will go to the Supreme Court if they try to block it.  And if it happens in the next couple of years, there is no doubt who would win.

Fact is she was in the wrong, and she needs to just drop this.  

My Necro is at 78, I would like to get at least to level 82 or 83 and I’m trying the Ancestral dungeons and playing around with my build up until the season starts and getting aspects to use on my character. Like yesterday, finally got around to getting my 4 paragon points from Dry Steppes (it was my last one).

To me, 50K is a pretty small town.  Of course, the smallest city I’ve lived in is Kenosha, which currently boasts 100K and I live in Chicago now.  8,500 is tiny.

the biggest problem right now is infrastructure for high speed internet. High speed internet isn’t super common in rural areas; especially not very high speed internet. 

Nah, they don’t even have a stranglehold now, you have Steam for computers. Nothing is stopping Sony from actually putting forth a good streaming model. Fact is, Sony has never put enough effort to streaming and most certainly can improve theirs in the next 10 years. And what’s stopping Amazon from getting into the…

Oh I’m sure he will go somewhere else (more likely start his own publishing company) eventually, but he won’t be in charge of Blizzard, and that part I like.

you’re right about the arpeggios being used throughout.

Yes, the Zeromus music was awesome!
