It is time to get in the pit! Blizzard has finally given us a glimpse of how PvP will work in Diablo III. With this PvP system the development team bring something new to the Diablo series - Battle Arenas.
Arenas are small areas separated from the rest of the world. There will be various arenas spread out in Sanctuary. Each of them will have a unique design with different scenery, features and terrain. You dive into the arena with your multiplayer character and battle out using all of the skills and gear you have accumulated.
Mechanics
Skill Runes have finally made their way back into Diablo III. They have been reworked and are fully implemented into the game. There have been some changes to the skill runes since we last heard. Still random drops, the skill runes are added to your skills to augment their effects. There are officially five runes; Crimson, Indigo, Obsidian, Golden, and Alabaster. The original names of multi-strike and power were changed to allow a wide range of effects the runes can have on skills. With the amount of skills, skill runes, and choices, each class will now have 96,886,969,344 combinations of active skills. That is over 484 Billion builds including each class; obviously lending itself to character customization. Most of these skill changes will not only have a gameplay change but a visual change as well so you feel like you have actually changed your skill. Each rune will also have seven different grades ranging from stone which will cover levels one through and be found in Normal, silver which will be levels four and five and will be in Nightmare, and finishing with gold which will be levels seven and eight and found in Hell setting. The rank will increase the effect the rune has on the skill. The example given was the Wizard's Magic Missile with the Indigo rune. It normally shoots one missile but increases to two with a level one rune. With the level seven rune, it jumps up to eight missiles.

AH nei, me het no der Login Screen vo Cata enthüllt
Het no ganz vil anderi Info-Happe gäh, machsch Internet.
Mich interessiere nur Release Termin
Denn extrapoliersch halt bitz. Was heisst das wenn si bekannt gäh dass Diablo III “way over half-way done” isch? Vermuetlech dasses gliich nid 2011 chunnt! Chasch also afe no es Johr Pouse mache bevor wider nacheme Releasetermin frogsch
Earlier today I received an invitation to go to Blizzard HQ, at the end of July (27th to be exact), for a world first look at the Diablo 3 Beta (which means Beta won't be out before this event), as well as some new feature reveals, including information on Battle.net 2.0.
Beta dörft demfall im August oder so starte.
Es chunnt nöcher
ich gseh no es anders Problem als d´Moral: Mit emene Ächtgäld AH zum verchauf vo "durch Glück erworbene" Gegeständ fallt das Spiel wohrschinlich unter s´Glücksspielgsetz und chönnt in der Schwiz verbote wärde. Tütschland möglicherwis au.
Wird Diablo eigentlich en Abogebühr ha oder isch das en eimalige Chauf ?
dänke mal wird wie starcraft und die alte diablos si. content nur mit expansions, defür kei gebühre.
und denn chunnt z'AH o nid ganz ungläge zum das wiiter finanziere. und evtl no anderi premium services
gmachts wird sowieso also warum nid gad direkt vo blizzard? denn ischs wenigstens sicher und überwacht.
es isch ja trade zwüsche spiler und spiler und nid zwüsche blizzard und spiler. si verchaufe der keni items.

Blizzard verdient mit, btw.
Aber wie gseit, ich glaub nid dass sie das Spiel so bi uns wärde release chönne.
Wird wahrschinlech wie mit der Fründsschaftswärbig in WoW wärde: "sorry, us gsetzliche Gründ isch das Feature in däm Land leider nid verfüegbar"
glaubi nid. isch ja nid es "glücksspiel" wo dis ersparte chasch verlüre. wenn glück hesch findsch was und chasch es denn für geld verchaufe. muesch aber kei geld isetze.

logisch düesi. aber wieni gseit ha: das ganze item verchaufe züge passiert sowieso. ob jetzt blizzard oder ebay profit demit macht isch doch egal.
für de spiler ischs sicher die besser option s item gad direkt z chaufe. findis guet? nei natürli nid.
solang s spil 100% gniessbar isch ohni das mer sich es item muess chaufe isch doch alles guet.
hahha blizz machts richtig, sie probieret mit dem schritt all die goldhändler etc. z überneh, isch ja vorussehbar gsi. us biz sicht absolut de best schritt.
wenns öper verdient den blizzard, jedes spiel isch super.
