@FAE I hope he just means per Act, not like... Act 1: Cathedral, Act 1: Leoric's Manor, etc.

@Fluttershy Isn't that what he means by each area?
@FAE I would assume so... I'm just hoping I'm wrong.

00:11
Sorry, I meant each area within the Acts. I'm assuming there's a fairly well defined range within each Act, presumably with distinct ranges for the various areas (i.e. Dahlgur Oasis would likely be different levels than Black Canyon Mines, even though both are in Act II). — Beofett 19 secs ago
@MarkTrapp Yayy! I had to read that twice... <.< NARQ?
user2334
idkmybffjill. If it's NARQ, what's the RQ version? Asking a separate question for each of the bajillion areas?
@MarkTrapp i...d...what?
user2334
@MarkTrapp Shorten it down to just the Acts as opposed to each Act's individual area? there are only 4 acts, so that would be much, much less broad. As it stands know, it's overly broad, which is reason enough for NARQ.

Q: Tool for knowing what to set auction prices to

imaginativeEconomies differ and if you're new to the auction house, it can be overwhelming.

Q: Why do bouncers look like ghosts?

antony.trupeWhy do the bouncers in The Feerrott look like ghosts? Are they ghosts, or is something else going on? eg Bouncer Fug

@Sterno Yeah, it stopped working for me halfway through farming it last night. Looks like it got hot fixed.
(Incidentally, a major benefit to being online only/internet required that people have ignored. Several MAJOR bugs, such as Templar not being able to equip shields have been hot fixed.)
user2334
@FAE Oh nice, I'll close as NARQ if that's linked. I hate the question @Fluttershy and questions like it, but most of the time I never know what to say to the inevitable, "this is a question about gameplay mechanics, how should I ask this in a non-broad manner?"
FAE

@MarkTrapp I think @LessPop's got a very solid guideline there

This seems way too broad to fit SE: we're not GameFAQs, after all. Can you ask about a specific situation or problem you're having instead of asking for people to compile a guide? — Mark Trapp 8 secs ago

Q: Why do Terrans drop mules in battles?

ayckosterI have seen many pro players dropping mules after / during battles on the battlefield. Sometimes they use scans instead. This seems counter intuitive, I mean they could get a ton of minerals for that. Why do they do it? MarineKing does that very often.

@Lazers This is painfully easy... I wish I could've answered it. =(
I'm sorry, but everything about this image is hilarious.
@skovacs1 I completely agree with you about the rampaging neon elephant. >.> But I'm glad I was able to help you with your already correct answer.
@Fluttershy Thanks for the help. It's always appreciated.
@skovacs1 Hey, you've been a pretty hardcore gamer for a while, right?
01:01
@Fluttershy Hardcore enough. I have too many games that I've only started and not enough that I've finished. I'm a completionist and that doesn't help. My skillsets are quite varied and I'm not sure how good I am because I dislike competing against others except in select situations. Why do you ask?

@agent86 I'm pretty sure #14 is a worm from worms
01:02
Diablo on Hell is insane(at least at my low level)
That's all I got that he didn't already say.
#44 isn't Commander Keen, is it?
And I feel like I've seen #48 somewhere before...
@Fluttershy Some of those are pretty ambiguous. Which ones?
@GnomeSlice Quake 3?
01:04
@GnomeSlice No idea. But I know a few that @agent86 missed. #38 is Heimerdinger from LoL. #18 is Turok. #10 is Pyramid Head from Silent Hill...
@skovacs1 4, 44, and 48.
@Blem Never played it, dunno.
@Fluttershy I was going to suggest pyramid head, but I thought that was only in a movie.
And also wasn't really sure what he looked like.
@Blem I'd say you're pretty spot on.

I feel like he's asking too many questions in one.
@Fluttershy you also loose the visual effect of the item
@Fluttershy Of course. Those are some of the most ambiguous ones. I agree with Blem on 48. I don't know about 44 being Commander Keen as his sprite never takes that pose as I recall.
01:11
@Blem I did not know that. Thank you, sir.
had a naked barb during my Izual kill on hell
@Blem Did I miss anything else, as far as you can tell? I'm not quite as far as you (or anyone else from Gaming, for that matter), so I struggle with some of these answers...
@Fluttershy I'm not convinced #15 is Ryu, either.
@GnomeSlice I believe that is Captain Falcon from Super Smash Bros.
@Fluttershy Ah, yeah, that's what I was thinking.

Q: Can I revisit/re-enter Whimsyshire?

SeanIn D2, the items used to generate the portal to the secret cow level were expended, and you couldn't return to the level in the same difficulty once the Cow King was slayed. Are there any similar restrictions on Whimsyshire, or am I free to come and go as I please?

What about #18?
Absolutely no idea who that is.
@Fluttershy maybe that it is a good idear to keep it full repared before boss fights on higher difficulty levels when doing it as a groups since you can recover from multiple deaths during a long boss fight
@Fluttershy It is, but Captain Falcon is from more than just SSB.
FAE
FAE
@skovacs1 F-Zero GX made me swear a lot
@skovacs1 Oh, I know. He's also in F-Zero. But that particular sprite is SSB, isn't it?
01:16
@Fluttershy Probably.
@GnomeSlice Pretty sure it's Turok.
@Fluttershy was thinking the same
@skovacs1 Image not found...
@Fluttershy I know. I'm trying to deal with it. It is turok though.
01:18
@skovacs1 Ah, okay. =3 Thanks.
FAE
FAE
@skovacs1 I could not play that game, it made me so so so ill.
44 looks like some kind of old-school isometric sprite and it seems mildly familiar, but nothing's jumping out at me. 4 is so ambiguous that I really do not know - it also seems familiar, but it's still not ringing any bells.
FAE
FAE
I feel like I should know 4 but I have no idea
@skovacs1 Yeah, that's identical.
@GnomeSlice that was the point.
@FAE There are so many top-down/isometric old school games that it's like looking for a needle in a haystack. It seems so familiar, but I think it's too generic.
FAE
FAE
01:29
@skovacs1 Yeah, I agree.
Isn't 4 Guybrush Threepwood?
@skovacs1 is this Mr.T with a bow?
@LessPop_MoreFizz The hair doesn't look right for Guybrush... Actually, I think you're right.
@Fluttershy it's definitely old school dos guybrush
the beard, the pantaloons
it's just a weird angle because you're used to seeing him facing to the right.
@LessPop_MoreFizz You're definitely right. It's Guybrush. =D

Yeah, that was one of the first ones I figured out :P
@FAE Oops. I thought you said 44.

Q: What are the advantages of hardcore mode?

Kyle CI know of the obvious disadvantages (when you die, you're dead), but what are some reasons to create a hardcore character in Diablo 3 besides the increased challenge?

@LessPop_MoreFizz Yeah. From MI2.
@spugsley That pretty much sums up Turok.
@spugsley Look at my latest question! =D
@skovacs1 That's not quite the same.
01:52
@GnomeSlice The left-most sprite. Make it face left. And then it's spot on. <.<
@Fluttershy Not quite, look at the face area.
There are more protrusions in the silhouette.
Other than that though, yeah it's definitely him.
I am so raging at The Lyceum and Villager's Journal right now.
I think the comparison is somewhat priceless
@skovacs1 lolwut
That's hilarious.
@GnomeSlice Will Turner in Pirates of the Carribean compared against Guybrush Threepwood.
@skovacs1 Yes, I see what it is.
01:57
@skovacs1 Give that man a blue jacket, and I think we have a SoMI movie!
@skovacs1 That's the one.
Poor res, but it fits the protrusions
@Fluttershy Is 44 the only one left then?
@skovacs1 44 and now 10, upon closer inspection.
02:00
@GnomeSlice Someone drew Samus Aran based on a model's picture?
@GnomeSlice That's still more effort than BioWare put into the big reveal for Tali fans.

@FAE I was enraged.
FAE
FAE
@Fluttershy At least they didn't forget about your romance option. My Shep romanced Thane in 2. :(
@FAE They didn't forget about that. >.> That was your fault for romancing someone who told you he was terminally ill!
02:03
@skovacs1 I don't think so. I think it was a coincidence.
FAE
FAE
@Fluttershy They did, actually. The team admitted that everyone thought everyone else was working on the Thane stuff, and it just... fell through the cracks.
@FAE Oh... <.< Ouch.
FAE
FAE
@Fluttershy Yeeeeep... And I don't have an issue with the whole death thing, it's the fact that there's practically no difference at all in interacting with him whether you romanced him or not. :(
@FAE I can understand the disappointment there.
@Fluttershy oh and to answer your question that I somehow missed in game - yes I am on Nightmare
@Fluttershy I'm just grinding right now. Wanna join me and level up faster?

Q: Is it possible to hit Gore Harrier type enemies while they're hovering above?

should be removed or prefixed with diablo-3?
FAE
FAE
@Blem not fond of that tag at all
@FAE me neither
02:16
@Blem Removed, IMO
@Blem It's an odd tag. It's a small element of one game. I think it could go either way because I don't see it as notably bad, but as it doesn't have a sizable enough a body of knowledge, I would side with those that say it should be removed.
Question time, Bridge: When playing an RPG with heavy moral choices, do you a) base your decisions on how you would react in those situations, or 2) base your decisions on how you think your character would act in those situations?
user2334
@Fluttershy I base it on what the strategy guide says gets me the best reward
@Fluttershy where did option 1 and b go?
@MarkTrapp This was the answer I was expecting from the majority. lol
@Blem 1 = a, 2 = b.
02:31
@Fluttershy I will got with III) Random click an option without reading it so I can get back to the fighting
@Fluttershy I base my decisions on what will get me the biggest reward or advantage in the game first. Sometimes I'll run multiple saves to do both routes. Typically I run fully "virtuous" if it doesn't matter, but as I almost always steal everything that isn't bolted down, I am sometimes forced to choose the "evil" option. Personally, I'm usually in the middle or generally ambivalent, but not caring isn't often an option that I can select.
@skovacs1 That makes sense. I prefer to base my decisions in game on how I feel I would react in the same situation. I find that if I take the "evil" option, I feel terribly dissatisfied with the game... >.>
@Fluttershy Since they're called Role-Playing-Games, they aren't doing a very good job if you can distinguish between your reaction and the characters' reactions as it becomes less you role-playing and more you playing a role. The subtleties in the difference are that when RPing, you can freely choose things, but in the other case, you're mostly just following some script with little freedom to play outside of that.

02:38
Sadly, the genre classification is fairly lax on this defining point. It seems like anything with numerical statistics and leveling is somehow classified as RPG. If you're forced into a role, I feel it becomes more of an adventure game than an RPG.
@LessPop_MoreFizz It's a new day UTC so..... wat
@LessPop_MoreFizz ???
@LessPop_MoreFizz Wh...what is this?
> Five years ago this week the first issue of SPORTS ILLUSTRATED was published and, in the line of parlor games, we included a highly improbable fiction called Ladle Rat Rotten Hut by Howard Chace, a language teacher at Miami University, Ohio. With an insidious knack for distorting the spoken word when putting it on the printed page, Chace blithely started his story, "Wants pawn term" (for once upon a time), and let the reader struggle on from there.
@LessPop_MoreFizz I guess amazing is the correct word - it's like a maze in its confusing and labyrinthine nature. I wouldn't use the word this way because it has a different connotation.

Q: How do you change the difficulty level in Diablo 3?

MonteCristoI know that there are four difficulty levels in Diablo 3 as follows: Normal Nightmare Hell Inferno Can the difficulty level be changed manually or does it automatically increase on subsequent play-throughs (i.e. moving from normal to nightmare, nightmare to hell) as in Diablo 2?

@agent86 good, but ready to come back. Hurt my back, but otherwise very relaxing.
@EBongo :( well, clearly the only solution to a back problem is resting. preferably in a chair. in front of a computer. that has diablo 3 in it.
Anyone know how to post on battlenet forums, with a D3 license? I have a linked WoW license (expired) and it won't let me post.
@EBongo Actually, I'd be curious if you find a solution for that. Same problem, didn't care enough to try to fix it the other day. Too tired, or I'd actually ask on our site.
I'll ask, is that a battlenet question a D3 question, or both?

SathyaMy blacksmith is at Level 3 (Adept) and I don't see fist weapons that I can craft. Will be able to craft any fist weapons later? If so, what are the requirements?

@TimStone That's a backward smiley! This is an impostor! Sound the alarms!
@GnomeSlice based on some of the stuff you've recommended, you might like this: npr.org/2012/05/13/151712146/…

it still irritates me that the blacksmith can't repair your shit
but a bartender can
Heh. Unidentified items indicate that you can right-click to identify when viewing your stash, but it just moves the item back and forth like it would anything else.
@NickT Yeah, I "WTF"ed at that the first time I went to repair.
wow, most annoying champ(? yellow...) to fight; the ones that can go through/hide in walls + waller + nightmarish

Q: Can I read or listen to a creature lore if I missed the popup?

FoxtrotWhen I am questing and/or exploring in diablo 3, I sometimes miss the New Lore popup in the bottom right corner of my screen. After a short period of time, it disappears. Can I read or listen to this lore or is it lost till my next play through ?

@Lazers I think it's a dupe

Q: Where can I view new lore entries?

SternoMy level 2 barbarian was killing zombies right outside of town when a little box in the bottom right appeared which said "New Lore". Since I was in the middle of combat I didn't have time to click on it, and a moment later it faded out and disappeared. I assume there is somewhere that I can view...

The game thinks my playthrough is 2 Kulle
Incidentally, if you start the battle with Kulle and then leave the game, it kicks you back to the previous quest. It's not hard to change it to the battle, but it's kind of annoying when trying to get some of the achievements for that fight.

Q: How do mobs with "Shielding" work?

Nick TSome Elite/Champion mobs have a "Shielding" modifier where they bubble themselves for a while. How does the shield work; does it absorb a fixed amount of HP? Are they totally immune (from damage and effects) while encased?

Q: Can multiple Wizards cast Blizzard at the same time?

BrantThe description of Blizzard states "Multiple casts in the same area do not stack." What if there are two Wizards in my party? Does each of their Blizzards deal damage, or only one?

And now it doesn't change my quest even though it did the same thing like 8 times.

Q: Do the bonus to health globes work also on items equipped by my companions?

KappeiIf I have an item that gives a bonus on health globes that I pick up, does this bonus work also if I give said item to my follower?

Q: Can the Frost Arrow rune cause a chain reaction?

KappeiThe Frost Arrow rune for the Elemental arrow skill reads: Fire a frost arrow that splits into multiple arrows after hitting its target What I'd like to know is: can these split arrows split themselves? Can I create a chain reaction?

@NickT I agree. He used to in beta, then they removed it. He's like "Doot dee do, let me repair this crown for you!" but y'know, totally can't repair your weapons or armor...
and time for boardgames day

Q: What is corpse hopping?

OakI've seen the term "corpse hopping" used regarding some behavior on the higher difficulties of Diablo III. What does that mean, and how is that done?

Q: How are critical strikes rolled and counted?

heisheSome effects, such as the Barbarian's Overpower ability, gain benefits from striking critically a lot (in this case, the cooldown of the skill is lowered by one second per critical strike). The answer to this question would have some important implications for certain builds, which focus on thes...

Q: Is there a way to pass time other than sleeping in a bed?

ChiboxI'm stuck running around in the wilderness barely able to see anything. I know you can sleepl in a bed but there isn't any around?

@FAE Just got back from Wine and Lords of Waterdeep.. Fun game :)

Google Docs you disappointed me today
First I tried making my point with a Drawing using Snap to Grid, but every single time I did that, things would be a teeny little fraction of an inch off. Then you'd nudge every rectangle into an infinite loop of ever-so-slightly shifted rectangles, and then I gave up and the thing still looked shoddy.
which is what I was trying to avoid in the first place by going Snap to Grid
(The default option, Snap to Guides, doesn't help you resize things.)
Then I thought I'd use the Graph option in Google Spreadsheets, even if that means giving up control on the color of each cell (which I needed)
and then I tried to export the graphs as an image
faaaaaaaaaaaaaail
I then "exported" the graph with print screen and the shadows of the rightmost bits still were cropped off
It looks okay
and then I finally gave up and used Powerpoint instead and things mostly just worked :(
@YiJiang It's the whole image it saved. :|
I didn't crop it.
@badp Do you have a fixed version of that tree graphic?
@Pubby which one?
Those are all static images I believe
Really? Huh, can you change the page isze?
09:45
@YiJiang Not when saving graphs as image
You could resize everything
@YiJiang docs.google.com/spreadsheet/… - knock yourself out, the graphs are in their own sheets
Sheet 1 has the "source"
This... uh. Yeah. This sucks.
I think the issue is that the canvas size for the graphs is predetermined
when exporting
and this chart type draws outside the canvas if it can't fit everything inside it
thus that result
it's probably not a problem for like bar charts and the such
@badp This one: i.sstatic.net/RhQnC.png except without the edges cut off
(and why do I never notice the ping noise here! It's not pingy enough I guess.)
