I just spent a half hour looking for the link again but there was a post saying that Stats were allocated automatically and you have no control over it.
If this is true, and it looks legit, then fuck DIII. First they change the skill tree system that wasn't broken, second they don't even let you distribute your own attributes point. Total horseshit!

If this is confirmed true, I'm not buying World of Diablo.

It seems all Blizzard wants to do is take what everyone loved about D2 and trash it.

People are going to be good because they spent a lot of time playing, not because they know they're doing.
The gap between the Noobs and the Pro's is disappearing because Blizzard wants to play the fair mommy card.

everybody is migrating to d3...for u people who cant get over urself over the variety of builds of d2...good luck playing in 3 people tournaments and trying to own (if ur lucky) 4 people duel games..those numbers are just a rough estimate but the pub games should all disappear once d3 comes in cause nobody gona play d2 and thus no more dueling

nah I'm sure some people will keep playing d2. to be honest, I'll play both d2 and d3 lol. like 1:9 play time.

oh yeah..im sure people will play..but look at the game now..there are barely anymore public games..and theyre always empty if they are any..once d3 hits..ull be lucky to find a duel game..might take a couple minutes

It will take away the effort of "theory crafting" by finding the best stat distribution... Now they only need to figure out the best skill placement for your typical cookie cutter build.

It's taking nothing away from you, other then you spending time or someone else spending time to use spread sheets and math to find a simple "best" placement... And that wouldn't happen until blizz released all the items, etc. This way.. I think is best. Oh well, I won't miss over analyzing where to stick stats and crap.

Also, it will save time from you looking at one site, seeing another and they both be different. Which one is is correct, or more correct? blah blah blah.

Lol there was no variation in stats.


Everyone just put as little STR as possible, enough DEX for max block, and the rest vita. And then there's 3 other builds--- Mass Vita (no block), Glass cannon Zon, and ES Sorc. So there you go, 4 total builds, so much for "amazing customization"




People need to take off their nostalgia-tinted glasses, D2 was not a perfect game, it had many problems and Blizzard is fixing them with D3.
