[Sun 8 Sep 14:00] Diablo 3 Afternoon

[zoob]

I'm hoping to be on earlier but let's say 1.30 for 2pm.

I've got a level 11 or 12 Demon Hunter so anybody within 10 levels or so,
preferably with different classes, is more than welcome!

I will be there but will be a bit late as the GP is on, should be on about 2:40ish

Nice one. See you then, then.

Good fun chaps, makes things better with a few of us. Think I did 1 level in all that time (which seemed to fly by)

Good to actually play a game that is pretty much flawless in SP as well as MP.

The transition between SP & MP seems pretty much seamless, apart from the fact that you is a "reet hard geezer" Mick.
The rest of us seemed to be shortening the gap pretty rapidly, which means next time (unless you keep levelling, of course)
it'll be a more even playing field & we'll all whizz up similarly.

The alternative is that we start specific SNR players, in which case I'm quite happy to not be a Demon Hunter.

That said, it were reet good fun reagrdless, thoroughly enjoyed it & hope @Dogstar did too!

I noticed that the levelling (from my character at least) seemed to be a lot slower in a MP group than it is in SP. Was that because I was a few levels higher? I dont know.
I played for about an hour later and levelled to level 21 fairly easily, which was loads more than I did in those hours we played as a group.

1 point on that, I started off from where we finished our MP game at the start of act 2, I dont know if there was a different loading bit to use (nothing that I noticed ) but I had to redo the little bit that I had already done previously.

I dont mind starting a new character if thats what everyone wants to do, as long as it doesn't interfere with the SP story.

You'll be levelling quicker solo as you'll be getting all the kills & hence XP. That's what I was trying to work out re: whether xp was being shared, more beasties, etc.

As an aside, are you using a follower or claiming all the xp for yourself?

 

[The_Carpet_Frog]

Yeah I have a follower, have just noticed (as I hadnt changed him for one of the others) that even though I have used the same follower all the time all 3 of them have levelled.

You really must salvage everything, and get the blacksmith to make your kit, I just did mine and now have a damage bonus of about 550% and a D/Sec of over 260.

Also I have a jeweller who is a gem version of the blacksmith.

This game gets better and better the more you play it.

Excellent observation skills there @mick - I will be employing your advice to the full.
Really need to invest a bit more time in Diablo but (happily) busy with gigs at moment.
The one next Tues is my last for a while but then there's GTA5...!
