To receive the "Chestmaster 2000" achievement, you must open a lot of chests.
Chestmaster 2000
Open 2000 chests.
I'm sure most will get this achievement eventually, just by regular grinding - but what area is the best to grind if I want to get this achievement as quickly as possible?
What affixes (prefixes and suffixes) are possible on items in Diablo III? What are the level requirements associated with them (a.k.a. when would I start seeing them drop or available in a store?)
As usual, some of my friends are racing ahead through the story while I'm stuck at work earning a living. Now, I'm aware that you can't join somebody who is playing a later act, but what about joining somebody at a later point in the same act?
In Diablo II, you could skip straight from the begin...
I have some equipment that I can swap in as-needed to boost magic find instead of more useful mods. Normally I end up not using the MF pieces much, as I'd rather focus on killing mobs instead. However, there are Resplendent Chests in the game which give several magic items when opened - when does...
Since you can add sockets to an item, it is possible for an item to have more sockets than what it dropped with. What is the maximum amount of sockets that each equipment type can support? Can the maximums be reached on any item (by adding sockets) regardless of it's initial socket count, or do...
Like World of Warcraft, the % physical damage absorbed by your armor differs depending on your character's level, given the same amount of armor.
Does anyone know how this works? For example, how many more armor points I need when I gain a level to maintain the same % damage protection against ...
My mom just got an iPad for Mother's Day and wanted to know if it was possible to use the same account that she already had on her Android phone with her new iPad. I tried to set it up that way, but unfortunately it created a new account instead of using her old one. She really doesn't want to ha...
I should also turn off my computer at some point and swap out my system SSD for this larger one sitting on my desk...running precariously low on free disk space.
Due to some... overly enthusiastic mouse-clicking, I have now accidentally removed a skill from my bindings in the middle of combat several times.
Is there a way to lock my selection in to prevent me from accidentally click-dragging the skills of my action bar?
@RavenDreamer when it comes to PSU's, I think the wattage on the label tends to be oversold, but the wattage you need is generally less than you'd think
@agent86 I figured the database query was how the contest is run, hence the LoL drama. It just feeds my hatred of the Diablo III Beta tagging policy. A Diablo-3-Beta tag would have fixed that....
I'd probably stick with the one you've got spec'ed, and maybe pick up a cheap kill-a-watt meter. run the sys under load and see if you're anywhere close to the rated wattage.
if you're close, RMA the PSU and pick up another, and you get to keep the watt meter for all sorts of fun activities around the house :)
@LessPop_MoreFizz Lucky... I got disconnected for some reason, in the middle of a dungeon, and then once I stayed in the queue long enough, it put me back outside a different dungeon and reset my map coverage.
In Diablo 3 each class has a primary stat that increases all their damage. They also seem to have very minor side benefits such as a bit of dodge for dex, however the amount of dex a barb would need to make this valuable seems to be a pull from focusing on Strength (or vitality).
Is there any si...
The Wizard's magic weapon states that it increases damage by 10%, lasts 5 minutes. However it doesn't give a duration timer near my health orb like similar buffs.
How do I know when my magic weapon has expired?
This is certainly odd... I tried pickpocketing Jarl Balgruuf's wizard while he was sleeping, but got caught. This time, I decided to have my first stay in prison, just for the fun of it. Picking the lock failed, so I slept off my sentence. As soon as I got out, I see some guy running up the steps...
@spugsley Yeah I see the tweet now 21min ago saying they were restarting and should be up in 15min.... now if I do the math.. that means I have been playing D3 for 6min now... stabby-death
During my run through of the Skeleton King's crypt I found books with Loric's story (2) and several from the scribe.
The templar I met insisted that if we found any books about his order that they were his.
I thought I did a good job of looking around, but I didn't find any books, did I miss th...
I do okay with Mordekaiser in early game. However, in mid/late game I have a hard time. It seems like if when I try to participate in team fight I just end up getting focused on an then dieing. The irony is that when I'm not focused on it still feels like I'm barely participating.
Currently I tr...
Fun fact: In Diablo 3, when there's networking issues, you can get lore, but not have it count toward the achievements and the only way to fill out many of those entries is to replay the act with a different character.
The only 2-handed weapons I have seen so far have been at most only a point or two higher in damage than a 1-handed weapon.
Why would I ever want a 2-handed weapon instead of two 1-handed ones? It seems like two one-handers will always be superior because you can have two sets of bonus effects.
@LessPop_MoreFizz Hatred and rage are different though. Rage is about anger. Hatred is about dislike or despise. Actions fueled by rage are generally thoughtless aggression, whereas actions fueled by hatred are more spiteful and directed.
My desktop is rather old, it has an Asus P5-GPL DDR (1) board with 2GB of ram in 2 1GB cards, an Intel Pentium D 930+ (3.0ghz dual core) and Nvidia GeForce 6200 (on PCI-E x16) graphics. I got it from a relation. I have access to a compatible replacement DDR2 motherboard, and will move to 4GB of r...
@Krazer It's fun to smash many things at once. I've felt a bit squishy once or twice, but that was mostly due to lag and the fact that I only equip armour with magic find.
So, my earlier problems with Empire Earth and Empire Earth: Art of Conquest seem to have oddly self-resolved. Now, I am wondering whether I actually need to play both games or if I can safely just dive into Art of Conquest?
To this end, I have a few questions to help me choose:
Is Art of Conq...
The "Shut up and take my money" Achievement requires that you buy one of each item from merchants. There are a lot of items on the list that my class doesn't use, and I am unfamiliar with. Is there one vendor, or a short list of vendors I can go to in order to buy one of each of these items typ...
@EBongo Then click on the lower right corner where there's the silhouette of a person's upper half (there should be a 0 near it). It will bring up a page with a large Add Friend button.
There are different magnitudes of identically named effects so a level range of affixes doesn't make the most sense, since the "level" of the affix can vary, and it is much more important what it appears on. If you want to know the individual tiers in addition to which affixes appear on what, che...

I saw people show their items to party ingame on stream... I think it's really useful shortcut. Does anybody know?
