Scratch that, gem AH is back up. Bought some flawless square gems (higher ones are prohibitively expensive).
Beat normal Diablo on my level 32 monk with a WD buddy. I'm at ~500 DPS with about 3500 HP. Looked around on the AH for some nightmare level upgrades, but it looks like the amount of stuff on there is already dropping off... I assume it gets very scarce on the AH until 60?

Finally managed to play HC a bit. Decided to try to level two chars at the same time so I rage lessifwhen one dies. Killed Skeleton King on my Barb (lvl13) and Butcher on my wizard (lvl17). Wizard nearly died when Butcher pulled me into fire when he was at like 3%. He died as I came out of stun with <100hp. NEED TO STACK DAT VIT
I feel like I should get an SC character going since I keep dying in Nightmare, but every time I try SC I get so bored. :/
Just lost my first HC character at 49...to a lag. Weeee!
I was in A4 Nm, extremly overgeared (I tanked 25+ mobs without losing more than 5% hp when I was changing a skill like 2 minutes before) and I died when I had a ~3 second lag. Tanked the same mobs without any problems before for 20+ seconds but a 3 second lag kills me. Whatever.
So...kinda burned out on monks now. I guess I'll go with a barb next.
I had some fantastic lag that I somehow survived yesterday. I spent a good five minute mashing defensive cooldowns and potions and running the two screens distance back to the entrance of the dungeon while getting pulled back and desynced and watching my health globe fluctuate.
Also saw this gif yesterday:
Hilarious.
why is it funny

Looks like everyone playing hit those huge lag spikes yesterday. Rage from HC deaths on forums across the web. Thankfully I was at work!
The logs show nothing?
I saw some mention of a DDoS attack causing it, but considering all the hurf blurfing and trolling going on about every aspect of the game right now, I have no idea.
edit: end result is yeah, no one is getting characters back anyway. hooray for online only! (I'd still play online for AH/trading community regardless, but I can certainly understand the HC arguments for offline mode)
Lost my first HC char at level 13 to some champion things at the church in act 1 when getting the last piece of sword (wortham or something), died due to stupidly testing a new ability when I should have been using tried and tested skills. Going to start a Dh or WD next.
Servers down? If I just lost another HC to server shit after they were down all day... fuck you blizzard

second comment:
If the bugs shoot from outside screen there projectiles are invisible, you can see its 4 seperate instances of damage that killed him, exactly the number of projectiles the bugs shoot per spray
I have 100h+ DH on SC. Most of the time I am shooting wasps that are offscreen and above statement is untrue, at least from my experience. Looks like lag/desync imo.
just had a bs death i think...
Lost my vl 40 wiz earlier ok, np i level another one..
Said and done, goes my lvl 29 wiz to azzmodan 370 dps etc etc.. had no issie whatsoever before.
Goes in takes him instantly to 50% starts doge the black slime, takes some damage has approx 2500 life, gets hit by a meteor insta died.
Thats kinda lols.. i was pretty sure that they didnt hit for as much... oh well guess i have to make another one..
yes necro
My wizard lvl31, only HC char died yesterday. 4 man party on Diablo (yes I was rushing it, wanted to farm Tomes of Jewelcrafting asap), phase 2. Shadow clones spawn, all 3 pubs go to whack barb clone (most important rite?) and I get ass raped by WD+Wiz+DH clones (zombie bears and poison hydra at level 31? WTF?). Sucked a bit. Shame I spent literately all my gold on stash upgrades, left with 8k. >.<

Ack, welp you have the right mentality at least. And yeah some bosses can be harder in a group, like belial, with 4 people running around it's much harder to keep all the AOEs organized in a smaller area - almost lost my DH to him in hell because of that.
Hit 60 on my DH just now and had a load of ultra-cheap gear off the AH waiting for me. Basically managed to pick up a fuckton of really really cheap items with +50-70 allresist and +load of dex, with the philosophy that items with both vit AND allresist get exponentially more expensive. End result being that my hp dropped from ~45k to 19k, but with 600 allresist my EHP went up marginally while tripling my dps. So the whole set cost me like 200k and now I'm in a position where 1vit > 1allresist in terms of EHP I can start to splash out on some big level63 items.
Kinda funny that I have more allresist than my barb (who I haven't played for a month or so). Just goes to show how much easier the game is now that the AH actually has loads of inferno gear.
well fuck, inferno is nowhere near as scary as it was when i got there with my barb. between the availability of good gear on AH, and the buff to doing it in a group, it hasn't actually felt like much of a step up from act4 hell, at all. Can happily go into a public game (and chances are the players are good because of the retard-filter that is high level HC) and roll through content. Just breezed through to the fields of misery with 0 close calls, and thats including facing a fair share of nasty elites (jailer, frozen, arcane, desecrator etc). No invuls yet, but compared to playing a barb (solo or grouped), DH is almost boring. Very little fear of death (while on my barb I'm constantly watching my health bounce up and down, knowing if i lag for 3 seconds I'll probably die).
Either way its good to be progressing without having to farm that damn goblin, but the achievement is definitely massively diminished from 1 month ago.
Well, a1 is easy anyway. I'll probably start some serious HC action now that I killed big D in SC (wiz).
Vulnerant omnes, ultima necat.
