  • Diablo 3: Investing in the Real Money Auction House

    This article is NOT for hardcore players, kids nor people who don’t have real money. This article is aimed at casual game players who have hit a wall in Diablo 3 and are having a hard time progressing because of lack of skill, patience, time, etc. The thing I want to discuss is why investing…

  • Diablo 3: How to Stay Engaged with the Game

    With the recent patches as well as my boredom with World of Warcraft, I have become somewhat of a Diablo 3 fanatic. Now, for those who are slowing down, got turned off at some point (even early on) or are burnt out, I want to convey my enthusiasm in trying to reel you back into…

  • Diablo 3: Conspiracy Thoughts

    I was chatting with a friend the other night regarding Diablo 3 and had been watching quite a few Diablo 3 videos on Youtube recently. The experience made me think a bit about the evolution of Diablo 3 compared with the start. While I do not possess any direct insiders to Activision/Blizzard (at one time…

  • Diablo 3: Items that Sell on the Auction House

    In writing on the items that do not sell well on the Auction House, I wanted to present a separate article based on my own experience of what can sell on the Auction House in Diablo 3. For myself, I do not have a great deal of magic find gear and only play on Monster…

  • Diablo 3: Why ilvl 42-59 Items Do Not Sell on the Auction House

    I think most people who play the Auction House in Diablo 3 are focused on high end items. Apparently, a lot of botting is hurting the economy on top of that and Blizzard has done little to handle that issue. One thing I have noticed that I’m not certain is a direct correlation to the…

  • Diablo 3: Monster Power vs Paragon Leveling vs Item Farming

    I’ve watched a few videos on using Monster Power for leveling. The mathematics essentially demonstrate the efficiency of using say MP1 as opposed to MP4 in terms of XP/hour. The justification is that higher monsters have greatly increased health, which takes longer to kill as opposed to the calculated amount of experience. So my theory…

  • Why the Switch to Diablo 3

    I mentioned that I switched from playing World of Warcraft to Diablo 3. The main thing obviously is that I got serious burn out from the dailies. I absolutely hate dailies. Logging into World of Warcraft and thinking about accepting a daily quest literally makes me want to puke. So I still needed to get…

  • World of Warcraft: How Dailies Burnt Me Out

    For the past two weeks, I’ve neglected to do my dailies in World of Warcraft. In fact, I’ve barely logged on to do anything. The most I’ll do is LFR and the Sha of Anger. Outside of that, I’ve found the game to have become really boring because the content and progression have primarily become…

  • Diablo 3 Expansion Announced

    Since I’ve been playing Diablo 3 far more than World of Warcraft lately, the breaking news of Diablo 3 caught my attention. I’ve read a few reactions online, but I want to take a moment to offer some suggestions based on my experience in Diablo 3. The current progression in patches for Diablo 3 seem…

  • World of Warcraft: Cross Realm Zones, the Clusterfuck

    Patch 5.0.4 went into a effect two weeks ago and already patch 5.0.5 is scheduled for tomorrow. Part of it ought to address the clusterfuck called Cross Realm Zones (or CRZ). As always, Blizzard completely underestimated their gaming community when implementing CRZ and it’s become a gigantic mess. I won’t go into details about why…
