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

This is a thread about HOW WE WILL MAKE MONEY once RoS hits. We have a ton of different answers in this thread. I think 100% of the people who posted here know that all this gear currently will become complete shit once the expansion hits. Stop being ignorant and post something useful. This whole thread is about 100% speculation because no one knows what will happen or what we can farm once the Xpac actually drops. All we can do now is throw ideas out there and talk about what is happening in the current market which is..... unid prices and prices on all GG gear have dropped in the pass week and will probably continue to drop. Keep posting useless shit tho gl.

LOL I dont mean to sound like an ass, maybe i do but your initial post is full of speculation. GJ bro
 
I have found the $MONEY$ making strategy!!!

Legendary/set items that drop from Horadric Cache bags are tradeable to people who are present when the bag is opened. This creates some scenarios that break the "you have to kill the mob to get the gear" design goal.

Many accounts could gather bags and then open those bags while in a game with someone they would like to give/sell gear to. For example:

- Player runs 20 bot accounts and uses them all to consolidate gear on a main account. Creates an incentive for people to run as many bot accounts as possible.

- Instead of using them personally, they could have people pay to be one of the three people joining games where botted accounts open bags and they buy any interesting legendaries. There could be a parade of botted accounts with inventories full of bags.

People who pay to be in bag-opening groups get ahead of those who don't. Streamers would definitely want to take advantage of this, bringing in bags from their viewers.

I think the best solution for this would be for the Horadric Cache bags to be treated in the same way as account bound legendaries - they have their own sharing lists and timers, and any legendary/set items that come from those bags would inherit the sharing list and timer from the bag (instead of the current group).

Going one step further, it should remain impossible to purchase bags using blood shards, otherwise people could just accumulate shards instead and the same scenarios happen again. (even if it's only a few bags at a time within the 500 cap, it would still be faster than farming if there's a rotation of suppliers)
 
if ppl start doing this , blizz will just change the loot from the bags to be tradable only for X hours after you get the bag , if you open it after the X hours you cannot trade the loot from inside

I think getting few endgame legendary sets on the account and then selling the acc will be viable , depend of the legendary drop rate , lower it is easier will be to sell accounts , there will always be lazy ppl eady to pay for geared up acc
 
NOTHING is yet final. It is early closed beta, they've already changed so much stuff it is ridiculous. What they are doing is almost criminal, tho, just think about it.. they are making players test the game on their behalf. I mean, that's what beta tests are for, in some sense, but RoS is so damn raw it is hard to look at after some time. They removed Crushing Blow from the game after people started inventing builds with it. Next, they are going to remove splash damage or thorns etc.. To me, they spat out a totally shitty new "alpha of the alpha version" of a content patch and called it RoS beta.

So, is there anything certain that we can actually discuss as of now? I think there isn't, since it would be worse than speculation; after all, that's Contemporary Blizzard we are talking about. For all we know, they might decide against all that AB/SB stuff and make at least unid legendaries and gold/mats non ab/sb. Who knows..

lel XD
 
love that they are closing the AH!!

I think that making IRL cash of this game might be harder now, i can only see two ways as of now.

Account selling and selling gold to 3rd party sites. Perhaps selling rares on i.e ebay could be a way to.

Seems like alot of ppl are worried about the AB/SB, so what if the bind it to your account, its only a few legendarys and set items (atleast so they say now)

take a look at diabloprogress and u will se that every single top 500( i guess every d3 player) have atleast 1 rare.

So rare drops will be were u can make the cash imo.
 
There will be no reason to trade rares (mabe only on season start or PERFECT trifecta ring/amu)

here you have core stat range for all item slots

1h weapon /off-hand / helmet / gloves /amu :
rare: 625
leg/set : 750

2h weapon:
rare: 945
leg/set : 1125

all other armors:
rare: 415
leg/set : 500

So endgame items - only legendaries
 
Been checking back from time to time on D3 and these forums. I'm thinking RoS will be profitable but probably more in selling accounts and whatever goodies we can collect that aren't account bound. Ladders and adventure mode should bring a massive crowd back to play for a longer time than vanilla... I'm hoping.

bind on equip makes more sense than these stupid shit they are thinking about.

what if i do play legit for the first few weeks and im doing some mf runs and find a good weapon for my friend but he's at work on a 12 hour shift?

also ... there is almost no point in playing these types of games once you take away the lotto chances for finding godly items that you sell and improve YOUR WHOLE ACCOUNT ... not just 1 slot on 1 char.

I think they are overlooking a lot of problems and are still just trying to wing it.

If you watch them talk they really have no fking clue what the game should be about. All they are doing is trying appease the mass casuals and sell some copies in the short term. All of the new build changing legendaries are a big bulk load of shit with no synergy behind them. It's just random shit throw on different items and put into a pile. Kinda like the burning axe of asskiss or w/e its called ... WHErE THE GD FIRE DMG MELEE BUILD FOR THE ITEM? lol.

They are now turning Diablo into a game where its self found kill 500,000 mobs for 32,483 (x) material and craft your gear 16,234 times to upgrade your loot and continue on your way. There is no need for trading because its all done via craft/enchanting. There is no need for AH's because everyone has everything they need to play this single player flash game.

They are overlooking, taking for granted, and creating TONS of problems in the direction they are going.

If you want another example ... Hearthstone is a CCG (Collectable Card Game). You pay real currency $USD/EU to buy virtual cards that you cant even trade. Are you fking srs right now?

Heroes of the storm? .... LOL ... only about 2 years late on that shitfest and wont hold a candle in the wind to LoL.

Blizz has lost everything it once was.

I'm shocked that you sell that many items with 5 bots! And I can find a similar sickle for 30m, what the hell, money laundering through D3 RMAH?
 
Go search for Butcher's sickle with 750-780 AVG DMG and sox and dex... there are more than enough options to buy something for 3% of 190 Euro.
