not all can access D3 website during office hour.

later lunch time i compose.

I have problem that my account on PTR not updated anymore. from last week I copied my acc to PTR 4 times.. everytime I copied my level is same, (Paragon 475, now im paragon 483)..my new items i got in live server not updated.. I want to test some build with new items I found in live server. Onli me or you guys also face the same thing?

Save the change first just in case, will continue compose the rest.

thank you.

only u

malas nak download PTR, waste of hdd space

ok finished update the classes, now item.

*Phiew....*

Finally finish compose, happy reading.

Finally Blizzard show some love to barb's 4 basic fury generator skill on the latest update.

furnace nerfed .
But it can be good for permana use for jade doc.. if the damage of 2 hander is improved as well:

- The Furnace
-- Has been redesigned

i guess how will this update change the furnace we all already have?

i feel in this ros everything item or weapon not permanent blizzard will change or nerf and redesigned anytime....no reason....

yes..tested in PTR already

Thanks bro.. what happens in pre 2.1 we already roll the damage of furnance..

since now 2.1 the 2 hander will have higher damage and the unique affixes will be changed. What happened to
the furnace that we have rolled earlier? will the roll be reset (meaning we did not roll the damage) ?

2-handed weapon buff is retroactive, at least from what I've read in the PTR feedback forum.

Definitely retro but if u saved it for ramalandis gift, you could roll stats that would make it much more powerful.

Ex: 2 handed sword
Before patch stat

1234-1567
7% damage
Str 600

No socket

After patch

Increase weapon range 1345 - 1789
7% damage
Str 600

Ramalandis gift adds socket.

Its situational and really dependent on what you want to roll but this is one of the example. Pre planning is advised

They still have the season 2 on PTR, so if a season last 1 month, and give and take 2-3 weeks to tweak things out after that, could mean 2.1 patch will deploy end of october.
