Diablo3 HC Players?

Good morning Anonymous crossies,

any Diablo3 Hardcore players in here ? I know alot of you guys are playing D3, but like Netherlands Ati or Austria potter only softcore.
I made Belgium Kevin create a HC Char already, but he is kinda the only one from my crossfire friends playing HC.

I've always been playing HC as some of you might know, since i constantly brag about on Diablo journals with the old webarchive link showing my #1 Europe HC Amazone in first Diablo2 Retail Ladder
http://web.archive.org/web/20010812221039/http://www.battle.net/ladder/d2-ladder2001.shtml

So it was only a matter of time until i would start with HC... played a Demonhunter together with my Girlfriend in Softcore up to lvl 55, gonna use him to test some late Hell/Inferno soon. Although i think Inferno mode is not playable for HC atm...
But srsly, HC is so much more fun, also the game economy is way better in HC, items are worth something when you sell them in the auction house, i sold almost all my lower level gear etc, this is way more fun than overpowered items in softcore being sold for 50k gold. And ofc Inferno not already beaten like in Softcore ;)

So here is my HC char:

Bit better meanwhile (about 660dps and almost 16k life, bought some gear in AH this morning :D)

Looks nice hehe :)
Any more differences between soft and hardcore but the permanent death?
no, all the same, permanent death ofc, and you cannot interact with softcore ofc, no items, no gold, no blacksmith level, different auction house etc...

all saved on its own in Hardcore
Parent
I see.. Good luck with that :)
Parent
gl with hardcore inferno act2 and above. IMPOSSIBLE to not die.

I play really safe aswell when I solo, here are my stats (meanwhile got about 5k more dps) and still i can't not-die :D

can't not-die :D
Parent
i know, i will farm act3 azmodan in NM until lvl 55-60, then go hell (again farming items first in act1 for quite a time), won't try inferno any soon in HC if they not change the mobs :D
Parent
sorc get nerved i feel sry for you , you can actually die now as sorc :D
Parent
u should rly get more life for hc :S

in hell one mob exploding = death for you

and inferno is even worse :P
i am lvl 40 in a2 nm... i think 16k life pretty good at that stage... with lvl 60 i will ofc have 50-70k, won't enter hell until i have at least around 30k
Parent
inferno mobs will 1 hit you with 40k hp :S
Parent
Yeah, Inferno is not playable for HC atm

This is why i plan on making 60 within NM, then go into hell and basically Farm only items there in act1 and 2 ... I dont even think about inferno atm
Parent
tbh drops in hell are like baby crap compared to inferno. Atm doing goblin runs in inferno :D
Parent
yeah hardcore is so much more fun especially when your character dies
like in D2, server lag at Baalrun, disconnect, character dead, rly good feeling :P
Parent
more fun than to play with all the brainless softcore guys, trying to beat inferno with 20k life and 5000dps :D
Parent
acttuallly 20k life is fine :o
Parent
Dont the mobs on inferno hit about 80k?
Parent
Dont mess the game with act 2 only , its just funny to see the barbs die with 60-80 life and 70% resis :D

The bosses are fine and mostly easy on inferno ... atm i have 20k life and 60 % resis , 25 % dodge... i feel fine with it , i just need to get ~ 9k damage and more def...

I dont make any rare mobs .. just go for the quests and boss kills since its useless to die 30 times and get crap items for it :)

At the moment we farm azmodan hell runs and act 1 inferno "kryptas^^"

my barb : image: Screenshot023
Skills : image: stats
Parent
für nen barb ist das aber wenig life :S

mein monk hat atm 40k life, 11k dps, 40% dodge, 19% block (I quitted dual wield)
Parent
For 2-3 days i changend my equip to resi , before i had 55 k life and 9 k dps ... but its useless to have that much life..

1. your healpotions are like nothing with 50 k life and a heal of 12,500 HP
2. your a 1 hit even if you got 90 k life .. all the way are resis+dodge+lifeleech+luck=win..

I have on all my equip resis from 20 TO ALL till 48 and phyis 20-36 resis ..

The rest i socked all with dodge , my damage i only get from rings ( attackspeed +15% both! ) + 5% Life and maybe dodge on it and my amu same stats attackspeed + 5% life and again maybe dodge...

Its all about the system how you play but i think if you got later ~ 20-25 k HP and 400+ resis + 10 K dps you will nice in inferno except act2 COZ ITS UNBALLANCED AS FUCK!
Parent
Looks ok =) Have you seen what "chest" phantomlord farmes? Always drops a unique item and some blue's ;)
Parent
the one in act 1? only drops shit for me :S
Parent
Act 2 I think (Its desert etc)
Parent
hmm kay.. well doign goblin runs all day as there is a nice one close to a wp ;D
Parent
You can't skip rare mobs, you need to kill at least 5 of them before killing the boss or no magic buff.
Parent
i rly dont go for rare mobs in act 2 !... just quests and mobs that are needed to kill ... best thing to farm items = farm gold = buy items ... Sad but true :/
Parent
oh if just everyone did that ;D
Parent
in softcore ofc :D
Parent
we gonna talk after your char dies :D?
Parent
i once died in D2 Retail, lvl 87 barb who was Top16 Ladder by that time... had to buy a new mouse after :D

so, i am kinda used to it :D
Parent
add me; noorgrin
I hope you die :p Will make a crazy setup with like 4 witch doctors on hardcore some time (20 pets :D)

Will wait till all the lags are fixed anyway, no point in playing hardcore with these lags
what lags, bad internet in nl? ;:pp
Parent
sounds great, looking forward to that !

Crossfire nerds 4 player HC Co-Op ! :D
Parent
Ill be playing hc as soon as im finished with my main
Wont enter HC for my PC's safety.
Rerolled wizard for inferno atm, softcore tho. Best plan for hc is to lvl to 60 and stop or continu farming gear until the servers ar stable.
yes, this is basically my plan, so i can start with kickass stuff when servers are fine and inferno is maybe patched a bit
Parent
play 2h barb @ inferno and comeback saying softcore is brainless
1h shield epicnezz
Parent
1h + shield as barb is being a complete faggot, it's disgusting
Parent
I gotta agree barb needs a 2h weapon and whirl, everything else is gay!
Parent
ob wir mit 80 auch noch zocken? :D
Parent
I'm honored that you call me a crossfire-friend.
lol i just recognized we signed up on crossfire the exact same day

Nerd friends forever <3
Parent
so basically if you die in hardcore, you die?
and then what?
Parent
Make a new character
Parent
lose equipped gear + inventory :P
Parent
wow.. just wow


probably lots of nerds gonna hang themselfs because they will die of a lag or something
Parent
has always been like this in D2 and now in D3... just keep your inventory clean, keep everything in the stash, you imo don't lose so much, since you keep your shared stash, gold and blacksmith/jewelery guy level...

but ofc it still sucks when you die :D
Parent
You keep your level?
Parent
I remember playing D2 HC with lordi a while back. It was pretty fun listening to lordi screaming that hes dying to the act 2 boss and spam clicking exit game :XD Might try D3 after I finish my exams.
feel free to link me some of that OP 50k gear, very underequipped atm :]
