Are there any areas and/or monsters that have a better chance of dropping gems and what is the highest possible gem quality that can be dropped? How can I maximize my gem farming procedures?

I am trying to understand if there is a logic in life globes drops in order to setup a correct strategy in monster killing order. Are they completely random in chance and "size"? Are there monsters (types) that guarantee the drop of a life globe on death or at least that guarantee a certain globe...

How do damage reduction from armor, damage reduction from resistances, and missile/melee damage reduction interact? For example, let's say I have X armor which translates to x% damage reduction from enemies at my level Y fire resistance which translates to y% damage reduction from fire from en...

I'm in Act II, and so far I've found 4 merchants that sell dyes, and they've all been Green, Brown, White, or Blue (excluding the special dyes) The Act I merchant always had Green, Brown, or White, while the three Act II merchants I've seen so far have 2-3 of the 4 colors, although it varied whi...

So the Wizard gets the skill Magic Weapon that raises your dmg by 10% and this IS reflected in your DPS rating when you cast it. A few levels later you get the Familiar which eventually gets Sparkflint that says it raises all attack dmg by 12%, however this is NOT reflected in your DPS rating. ...

Last night I started a Jedi Consular alt and got to level 10 by the time I finished off Tython. (I'm very familiar with it from my Knight. I have a life, OK? Shut up.) What I noticed is that I was relying extremely heavily on Double Strike. I'd just use it until I ran out of Force, and then ...

I'm wondering how much I should be trusting the character sheet dps value. Are there certain stats/skills that it ignores? What should be I taking into account when comparing dps values?

Does anyone happen to have an mp3 file of the little squeaky noise the space hamster makes in Mass Effect? I'd love to have it for a notification noise on my phone. I thought maybe someone would've posted it on Zedge, but I don't see it, and it didn't seem to come up in google either. Thanks!

Because most of the games don't run on linux/ubuntu.whenever i try to explain the benefits of Ubuntu to someone, but have a hard time when it comes to the support of games. Is there a resource to play games on ubuntu? If the blockbuster games could be run on ubuntu , ubuntu can defeat windows h...

Each of the Barbarian primary abilities generate "X Fury per attack". Fury is then used by the secondary abilities, and if you mash the right mouse button like me your beefy Man or woMan will soon be reminding you gruffly about his or her lack of anger with the minions of Hell. Since it is esse...

I've often noticed as I spam the mouse buttons, that the ability I am trying to activate doesn't seem to occur immediately, and instead may take a second or two while I finish other animations. Does this mean that I can create a short queue of abilities, or abilities always executed only one at a...

The title states the Question. I just bought myself permanent access to Megabeth, leaving me with the Question which Endorsements and Products would be the best setup for agressive but supportive Gameplay within this game. As explanation: I love to kill many bots but also engage players direct...

Through various instances of downtime or pseudo-downtime (where the servers were being worked on and "you may cause some interruption in communication, ability to log in, use of in-game features, and disconnections."), I made it through quite a bit of the game without the achievements for most of...

I'm a bit fussy about my character's appearance, and always want to look my best when slaying hordes of demons. I read that there are two collector-edition dyes I do not have (Beige and Dark Grey), which have unlimited uses. Is it possible to purchase/trade these dyes from another player? Or a...

There are rings, shields and many other non-weapon items that give a small boost to damage. If someone wears say a ring with +3-5 dmg, and dual wields - does this mean that it will give the full effect to both weapons? Or only to the main weapon, split among them or some other variant?

I'm missing two quest lore reports for an achievement: "Report from Wortham" (the first) and "Villager's Journal" (the last). Where can I find them?

Leah only appears to discuss quests and the same three topics before the big incident, after which she only speaks of her power. When can we dialogue about "Tristram", "Leah's Childhood", and "About the Temple"?

Is there a way to change the difficulty back to normal after you've started a game on nightmare?

I've been playing Rayman Origins for a while now, and yesterday I finally managed to collect all those red teeth that are scattered across the various game worlds, granting me access to the land of the livid dead. Mind you, at this point I still did not finish all the levels in the Moody Clouds,...

Collector Edition dyes are account bound and cannot be traded, however can they be used in a trade window to dye someone else's gear? I do not have the CE dyes, but can see myself potentially wanting to dye my gear with those colors, and was wondering if I could pay someone to dye my gear withou...

I have the Collector's Edition of Diablo 3 and I love the little set of angel wings you get. I notice that when I log into the game again I have to re-use my item to apply the wings to my character. What I can not figure out is why they some times just up and vanish however. I have tried testing...

So I'm developing a minesweeper flags game and the multiplayer version is all set up, but the single player version is still under developement. It's important to refer that I'm using a DataGridView, and I'm applying r = tab1.CurrentCell.RowIndex + 1 and c = tab1.CurrentCell.ColumnIndex + 1 to se...

The demon hunter skill Marked For Death has this description: Marks an enemy. The marked enemy will take 12% additional damage for the next 30 seconds. Does this damage increase apply for other players as well or just the character that creates the mark?

I've finally gotten a good thing going. I'm a married vassal, have two castles next to each other, around 1000 guys divided between the castles and 100 fully upgraded cavalry men in my army. Things were going well. Unfortunately the king of my faction decided to start wars with two other faction...

Once you're past the first few levels and not desperate for any little bump you can get, is it at all worth picking up the whites and greys littering the average battlefield? I'm know that every penny counts but would you make more by pushing forward and slaying gold dropping foes or getting to ...

Occasionally, I've encountered opponents with the "Jailer" suffix, and some bosses seem to have attacks that hold you still (though you aren't frozen). I've discovered the Wizard's Mirror Image, if cast while stuck, will allow you to escape sometimes, and a message will pop up that says "break ro...

At what point in the game do yellow drops become more common. Currently I am finding them mostly from bosses like the Skeleton King and that is about it. It would seem that these items are generally worth more (gold wise) and may be worth farming to build up my bank a bit for leveling my crafters...

Once again, the skill description for Spirit Walk leaves a bit to the imagination. What exactly does it mean that my movement is unhindered? Does it negate any movement slowing effects? Does it allow me to escape rooting effects or pull effects such as the Butcher's spear? Does it allow me to ...

I'm playing a sacrifice build Witch Doctor, and recently added Mass Confusion with Devolution rune. However, I have yet to get any additional zombie dogs from killing a confused opponent. Each time, I've opened with Soul Harvest, then hit Mass Confusion, then Acid Cloud. That usually kills mos...

During one of the quests, my co-op partner( with level 10 Demon Hunter as the character) was rewarded with a rare item. Apparently he wasn't able to identify the item(there was no option for him to do so) while my character, a level 12 Monk was able to identify the item. Why was this is so? Is t...

Every class gets a certain amount of points per level up. How are these points distributed in each of the five classes?

I recently found a set of Rare Boots and discovered upon wearing them that they were a most garish shade of yellow. Do Rare items have an alternate default color scheme from magical (blue) items, or are rare items simply rolled with a random dye applied in addition to their properties?

How much time passed in-universe between Diablo II and Diablo III? Did any major events happened in the meanwhile?

A comment here suggests that Whenever you kill a boss for the first time (on normal difficulty only), it is guaranteed to drop at least 2 rares: One general rare and one specifically suited for your class Is this true? I'm fairly sure I didn't get anything but blues the first two tim...

I'd like to not lose progress in the games I've not completed when I'll be refreshing/resetting my Windows partitions. As such I'd love to know about websites where you put in the game name and get out the save file path. Is there any?

In D2, there were several gear sets that you can obtain. My question is as shown above: Do they have them in Diablo 3? If so, where should I try to farm them ?
