Legendaries / Set items will be ACCOUNT BOUND in RoS... how will we make money??

[plzrepeat]

yes im hoping mats and gold will still be tradeable... might be some money left in the game... but not nearly as much. with blizzard wanting to go full single player with D3 i bet level 70 monsters will drop 1m stacks.

what is the point of single player diablo, the game requires internet one of most the things I enjoyed most of D2 was trading, whether it was self-found or botted. I just really hope they don't take out the fun from the trading element man, im tellin' ya.

Direct quote from BlizzCon panel: "The way that soul binding is going to work in Reaper of Souls is that we're basically reserving it for the best things in the game. Only for the Legendary items, the Set items."

We are doomed...

Just bot on ur main, problem solved -_-

There main aim is to kill bots in DIII

There is nothing but bad comments on the ah itself it was activision that wanted the ah to make money but it did not make money at all

Blizzard could easily find bots but they are bound by privacy laws

Simple program like a root kit that hides itself with heuristics and scans like a virus scanner to find unknown versions of a known bot but is friendly.. and does nothing but kill bot programs and sends some details for banning reasons...

This is where bot makers would be screwed to get around it as they have to find the parent program that is stopping them from accessing the .exe file they want to exploit

If I was the maker of a game and that it was getting botted in I would do this and suffer the fine if there were any

But I think blizzard is not allowed this is why there are no ban waves they have rules to follow and they are doing that and this is why they win in court as they have a valid case

They can tell if u run a bot but not in mass cases this has to be done client side and server side at the same time to gather the info

I am sure they could do it server side but it would be lag city

I think the glory days for botting in DIII is over now and even into the xpac that is coming

I think that with the new version of battle.net only going to run a single Diablo3 account by pc.

 

[Madenaras]

Don't get impatient guys. When the expansion is released, start to think ways of botting/determine the botting profit is dead. Until then, figure out a way to make "easy" bucks till the death of the RMAH.

multiboxers are legit players... why should they suffer coz of botters.

I don't think you understand what the content of the OP states. None of the beginning of your statement has any relevance, what good would gold do? AH is gone, this is kind of the end for botting, it's more of a SP game now.

No i still think gold will have some value crafting and rerolling items cost alot i saw someone blow through 1 bill in a few hours plus to craft the new gems cost 50 mill i know its a place holder but just keep in mind what they did to bounty's reduced xp reduced gold bags shards so gold and none crafted item will be trade-able

 

[darky13]

the gold is account bound on the PTS , if they dont remove all the bound sh1t , the only profit will be lvling high paragon accounts and selling em

 

[Nazair]

I think gold bound is only for beta purposes.
It would kill the game even for "legit" players 'cause they wouldn't be able to help their friends that just started.

wow well im on my way to 10 100's got 8

Dudes. They will most likely introduce ladders. That would mean everyone will have to start fresh (aka no gold, no items, no nothing). Hence, everything that's not ladder will be worthless. It won't matter account bound or not. I am thinking, that they might enable gold / gems / materials trading on ladder characters (or on all characters in the live game). It might be possible to trade unidentified items, because, why make it unidentified, if you are the only person able to use it? Too damn early to tell, tho.
Anyhow, take a look at the RoS beta on Twitch.tv --> it is ridiculous in many aspects. They already changed some skills and made it like much harder than it was the first 4 days. This beta test aims to test the game thoroughly in all it's aspects. I am pretty sure it will look much different by the time they go live with it.

Oh, and another thing- these account bound legendaries aren't that bad of an idea. One random drop completely changes the way you play your character, in matter of skills and items you use and tactics you employ. That's a good thing, because it will grow boring slower that way, compared to a scenario, where you have the AH or free trade with thousands of people and you can pick these items on demand. You can't just go to a forum, check the top 5 best builds and pick one, then go and get(buy, trade) the items you need- you have to farm for them and there's no guarantee you'll ever get them. Much more people will play that kind of a game and for much longer. Having that., all we botters need, is a way to capitalize on this market, or in other words, something to bot and sell. Look at it that way- D3 classic was big botting money at first, but since the game is completely retarded, people grew sick of it and stopped playing. So, it became very hard to make money, because there weren't enough people willing to buy anything. RoS will be different- there will be enough people, but there (for now) isn't anything to bot and sell. I guess we need to wait and see what will that thing be, if there is ever one.

Cheers

All the RoS streamers got bored within 50 hours of play because you already max out your character just like console. This game is toast

And Blizzard wins, because they can release expansions more often to get more sales. Boring game = high player turnover = more frequent expansions = more moneyzzzzzz for the publisher.

We, on the other hand, are done.

 

[Orcdaddy]

I hope it will be bound only after equipped...

Yeah, or maybe if you keep unidentified it wont be bound...

cuz they raised % of dropped items

its still beta

Exactly. Beta has the drop rate of everything turned up.

Dont matter, we need to find something to bot other than just selling gold. Unid prices have tanked since the PTR. World best items are being beaten already. Once the patch goes live we're fucked unless you have 5-10 bots running and dont mind sellling 100+ lacuni's at 1.5m a pop

thats why its ptr jeesus why the fuck would you know the lacuni's are gonna be sold for 1.5 mil? I hope it wont tank, but if you atleast read some of the blue posts u will have a better understanding,
stop speculating shit on top of theory

 

[wumderbean]

Or you can stop being ignorant and go on d2jsp.com and see for yourself.

 

[plzrepeat]

Isn't that the whole point, i mean if they released expansion and all of our gear and stats remained the same why would they release it in the first place? jebus

d2jsp? I think it's pretty self-explanatory about how the whole economy thing in Ros will be dead but whatever.
