7:15 pm, October 14, 2014 This could culture further links with Blizzard employees, and give us a larger avenue for our ideas to be heard. Allowing for a better back and forth of information between the two parties. It would e [..] View

Ideas to fix barb's terrible single target dps

Suggestion for more rift guardians

7:15 am, October 4, 2014 So basically there are alot of cool bosses in Diablo 3. Also in Greater rifts (apart from the insane scaling difficulty) there are people who get lucky with conduit pylons to beat the rift. To combat [..] View

Communities for trial key farming?

Shields - Why are they broken for all classes but Crusader?

With over 100 attempts at 43 solo, I've come to some conclusions about GR scaling and why it is no longer fun.

Boss Rush/Time Attack

7:15 pm, September 11, 2014 One of the most common complaints I see about the Greater Rift system is how random it is. It's supposed to be competitive and, yet, no rift is the same... so, I was thinking... what kind of a [..] View
