Diablo 3: Tempest Rush Monk Thoughts
I’ve been doing a little bit of paragon leveling with my tempest rush monk. So far, I managed to get him to level 10 (and I haven’t even completed all of Inferno yet!) Mostly, I’m focused on doing Alkaizer runs and have been doing them on Monster Power 1. I would say that I might…

Path of Exile and Diablo 3 Fun
Having finished William Gibson’s Zero History, I decided to take a little break from reading and do a little gaming.

Diablo 3: Zillianop Drama and Game Implications
I was reading about some drama over on the forums with regards to a twitch.tv streamer who goes by the name Zillianop. The drama entailed him getting his account banned over botting but more so how he had been conning viewers into donating gold and money for him. Many of the comments on the forums…

Diablo 3: Potentially Good Gold Earning Run
Tired of Alkaizer runs for Act 3? Want to change it up a bit? Here’s a run that I’m starting to use. First, you must have the Staff of Herding from Inferno mode (yes, we are going to hit Whimseyshire as part of this run). So before you proceed with this article, make sure you…
