I've been playing around on an emulated server with the last beta patch and noting some stuff here.

I'm sure some/most/all of this not carry through to release, but I'm bored.

Gold drop rates may be increased by level, then again by an item modifier.

Level 60, naked, act 1 monsters dropping stacks of 500-2.5k.

Ignore above post, drop rates are clearly wacky.

Witch Doctor "zookeeper" feels like what I always wanted D2 Necromancer to feel like. More tactical, less summon everything I can then spam curses.

Witch Doctor's Gargantuan model makes me kind of sad, needs more User Image for nostalgia.

From what I can tell there is no unsummon skill. Not sure if it will make any difference during actual gameplay opposed to whatever you want to call being level 60 in a level 10 zone.

Multiple Voodoo (summoning) skills may not be able to be used at once in live. Emulated server is allowing some skills from a tree to be used with others from the same tree. Not sure if this is working as intended.

Simply looking through skills available at level 60 in game instead on a skill calculator is incredibly time consuming. I suggest anyone serious about the game or a certain class really read every skill and the runes for it as we will not encounter a "most recently unlocked skill/rune for my level is the best" situation.

By the way I took some of my girlfriend's Adderall to be as thorough and meandering as possible.

m8s should check this out with me soonish. Takes about 10 minutes (60-90 :joe: minutes) to set up if you have the beta client with patch 18 (?).

You can host a local server or open specified ports to host a multiplayer game a la Minecraft, etcetera.

Not being able to quick drop (click item, spacebar, drop item) in this game makes me rage a tiny bit every time I open my inventory. Possibly the only thing I miss about D2 other than 200 FPS.

Witch Doctor movement abilities are lacking. Old man is slow and old.

Checked out the 2 areas in the build you couldn't get to in beta. Looks like several scripted events, a temple (dungeon) hit with part of the meteor, then another scripted event that allows access to the next area.

Lots of buggy skills, ruins your character and making this take too much time.
