 In 4th edition magic users can use one of three focus items: Orb, Wand and Staff.

Orb focuses on damage, wand focuses on accuracy and staff focuses on defence.

They will probably save the latter two for other magic users to be added later on.

Well I do know for a fact that one of the sub wizard classes will be something called the Scourge Warlock...I know this because while playing my CW I picked up a strange drop (boots) that I couldn't wear and in the item description was class requirement - Scourge Warlock....

You rail against this game, but keep or used to keep Playboy mags in your closet?

I am the husband to a wonderful wife and a father to the most amazing daughter ever. I too agree that the objectifcation of women is in bad taste at a minimum.

But....untill I hear you decry SI and their swimsuit issue, or Playboy, or the GoDaddy.com adds, the claims you make against this or any other game that contains scantily clad women, are lip service paid to the cause. For shame. I say again For shame.

I like most all of what you have to say Bill Murphy, but I lean on a leg of integruity, either stand against all objectification, of hush up.

I would just like to point out in order to be a good editor Bill needs to read all kinds of publications. Trade journals, reference books, nudie magazines (but only the articles).

Graky you STOOPID :p

Some of these potential changes sound interesting. Some of the things I really like:

- Crafting being able to modify existing items

- Legendary items being more powerful and finding ilvl 63 versions of all uniques and sets sound cool

- Fewer number of rare items but more powerful

- Identify all button!

 

I completely agree! :)

 

On a personal side note: As for those refusing to buy Heart of the Swarm, that's just 'cutting off your nose to spite your face' and rather childish. To miss out on a potentially great game because knickers got twisted over another game's fetaures is just...goofy. :P

Risking a ban here...

 

I think people who won't buy HotS because of the marvelous masterpiece called diablo 3 would actually be a mature thing to do. Why would you support companies that spit in the face of long time fans for a quick cash grab? Why would you go for a short term temptation only to get your hopes crushed when HotS fails to live up to the expectation? I mean, you guys get your games for free so you can review them.

 

We however have to pay hardearned dollars. So is it that childish to demand value for money and boycot if it turns out to be a cashgrab

AMEN!!!! I agree 150% I WON'T spend my hard earned money giving it to a game company that cash grabbed one of my most favorite games ever!!! Sorry its my money and I will with it what I want to......That's Life!!!!!

Why I wont play TSW:  Because of the epic failure of AoC.   Simple as that.   Funcom will NEVER get another dime from me every again.  There is a very good reason LOTS of people refer to them as FAILCOM.   My entire guild and many others I know outside my guild (mostly PvP players) will never buy a Funcom MMO.  It is simply too risky because previews and what's on the box may or may not be in the final game.

You reap what you sow Failcom.

AMEN!!!!

Perhaps she is better than you think. Gear can be a major contributor to being average and being superb. She is on an even playing field now. Congratulate her and make her a nice candle light dinner, she may kill you next. o.O

hahahahaha...AmJo I was thinking the same thing :)
