Demon Hunter Makeover
Seems as if participants in the beta are less than thrilled with the Demon Hunter class in its current state. Blizzard has announced that they will be undergoing a Demon Hunter class overhaul, including a restructuring of the resource system, changes to the talents, and more... This bit of news was first spotted by Loque of Diablogging, over on the EU forums. Given that the … [Read more...]
Blizzard Partners With PayPal
Blizzard has just announced on their D3 Community Site that PayPal will be the 3rd party payment processor for the Diablo 3 Auction House system. They also stated that PayPal funds will be added as another form of acceptable payment on Battle.net. This is great news!

Guns in Diablo 3?!

So far this is the most dominant boss kill I've seen from players who have posted Diablo 3 Beta vids on YouTube. … [Read more...]

Diablo 3 will be introducing an amazing new inventory system known as the Shared Stash. Rather than have one item chest that's unique to each character, Diablo 3 players will have access to an expandable Shared Stash that will be usable by all characters on one account. Those of you who played Diablo 2 know what a hassle it was to mule items between characters... not to … [Read more...]
Beta Video: Frenzy Barbarian vs The Skeleton King
Frenzy Barb was my favorite build in Diablo 2 and it looks like it may as well hold true for Diablo 3 as well. I found this Diablo 3 Beta footage of a Frenzy Barb absolutely murdering The Skeleton King, while barely taking any damage in the process. He had some sort of slowing effect he was placing on the Skeleton King - probably by way of a cold enchantment on his weapon(s) - … [Read more...]
