Infernal Machine event!

with the new patch here comes the uber realm

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/7597724/


after reading it all looks like ill be coming back to d3

Very interesting. More end-game stuff is definitely good for this game, as there was basically no end-game at release... other than gear grinding/gold farming. I think it would be cooler if they just added an arena where you fought all the 'Evils' sort of like in Diablo 2's uber zones.

blah servers are still down wanted to give this a try hate tuesdays

i found the first key for act 1 first try keep in mind u need 5 stacks before the boss will even have the chance to drop the key

How many tries did it take for you to get the key?

3x and no key yet for me at 5 stacks and 300% MF

~mrmiller

ok right now i have

Blacksmithing Plans took 1 trys normal inferno
Key of Destruction took 1 try with monster power lvl 3
Key of Hate took 3 trys with monster power lvl 5

and already bought the
Hellfire Ring plan for 2 million (its sold by the same chick you buy the cowbell from)

also was in a public room

love the new pillar of light sticking up when a legendary item drops helps out alot


-----------------
also found a pair of fire walkers which wont even help me out but ill wear them to set the world on fire =)

Fire walkers- Nice! Those are highly sought after and should fetch a nice price on the marketplace should you decide to sell them.

BTW- do the plans/keys only drop in Inferno? I've been playing act 1 inferno and it is a cake walk anymore.

yes the keys only drop on inferno and the keywarden will only have a chance to drop the key with 5 stacks so make sure u have 5 NV before u kill him

The Key of Destruction will drop from Odeg the Keywarden in Act I - Fields of Misery
The Key of Hate will drop from Sokahr the Keywarden in Act II - Dahlgur Oasis
The Key of Terror will drop from Xah'Rith the Keywarden in Act III - Stonefort
The Infernal Machine Blacksmithing Plans will drop from Nekarat the Keywarden in Act IV - Silver Spire Level 1


and agreed playing normal Inferno is easy !!!!! once you start playing with Moster Power Lvl is were it gets hard again right now 5 (5x harder )is the highest i can go with a group solo i can do x3 but once i go back to play normal inferno it feels like easy mode =)

and for now the firewalkers are not for sale having fun running around setting things on fire

ok got all the keys and item to make uber level going to wait till nate and glock get on to even try it also i found my wizard a new helmet

Very nice. So have you been getting better drops since the patch too? It seems to me that when they do the big updates the drops are much better for the next week or so. I do think they manipulate the drops to get people hooked back on playing, then will dial them back so as not to kill the in game economy. I hope to get some more time in sometime today and find me some pieces.

~mrmiller

the drops looks better on the key wardens one elite they seem the same and have not killed a big boss yet so idk


and the patch notes says they double the chance to find legendarys

new key count and leg drop

act 1 key x3
act 2 key x2
act3 key x2

ran 2 uber rooms both dropped crap got a total of 4 yellow all crap need to farm more keys now


ran with nate and ty on 5 stacks
both time pulled siege breaker and zolten kool (or how ever it spelted)

and only 1 boss drops loots

Well I ran 3 more key runs in Act 1 inferno, one normal and 2 with monster power 3, and still no Key or Legenddary items . Alll this with 5 stacks and 300+ MF too. I'll try again for some keys tomorrow.

~mrmiller

ok after about 10 hours of playing today
finally found

1 act 1 key
1 act 2 key
just need to find one more act 3 key to open uber
also found this

I got the plans and one key last night. Acts 3 and 4 dropped better, still nothing from act 1 (run 8 times) or act 2 (run twice).

~mrmiller

happy to see your getting the stuff miller!!!!!

and finally im not poor

and its almost gone but my wizard is geared alot better jumped up 8k dps 10 k hp and around 350 resist all .... i just hope that 5.5 mil bid i made on another set of vile wards gets out bid as u see i have found a pair for alot cheaper
and attack speed of 1.88 is win

Very nice- 80K dmg! Have Vile Wards dropped that much in price? Last I noticed they were like 20 million. I must get me some now, I think I'm about 5 mil.

~mrmiller

for a realy high end there still in the 30mil rang

however u can find some mid range ones for around 5-10mil just takes alot of AH trolling

OK so today as has been a win found some cool dudes to run and find keys also did 4 uber runs today with them using all are keys
todays spoils
from left to right

Buncher Sickle
Zunimassa Marrow (i found the one im wearing other one is old one i found
Gladiator Gauntlets
HellFire
Stone Ring of Jordan

Thing in the bottom by the 2 plans and key is the Devils Fang the first part of 3 to making the uber ring

good run tonight Miller ,Glock and myself did a few act 1 key run and 3 uber fights

Matt Got some epic drops on ubers
myself pulled a good set item out of a normal white box sold for 17mil and a few legendarys
Glock made his first uber portal and was HIGHLY upgraded today to WINNNNNING with alot better gear then he started with today also with a 1 hand mace that has 45% MF on it !!!


i finally broke over 86kdps and a 2.05 attack speed =)

Yea, I couldn't believe that Vial Ward dropped. Both of my good drops were wizard gear, and that is one of the classes I don't play (also Witch Doctor). Fun stuff. I guess I should work on my skype again.


~mrmiller

lol it would help me and glock were on skype =)

im going to farm more keys had alot of fun got to do it again!
