thats 1 less reason to play with unknowns or in public games. you can have a shitty player that sponges off the kills of others simply by equipping with max MF. i hope they lower the elemental damage of boss affixes. molten, arcane sentry, electric and fire chain are super annoying even with 800+ resists. i dont understand why remove invulnerable minions, it provided a good challenge (unless they have those stuff i mentioned)

They buffed up L61 and 62 items big time. I actually found a L62 2h staff with 1.1k dps it had like +130% crit damage on it. They tweaked some stuff like having the RNG roll more on higher value enhancements for higher level gear. They buffed 2h weapons big time but the biggest improvement is for legendary equipment. Some have like 150 main stat, 100 vit, 50 all resist plus other goodies. I suspect they screw up the % you get rare items, my barb with like 30 MF is getting a ton of yellows. MF is now supposedly capped at 300% + nv and it is not averaged in a team. Elite packs are easier and thy deal alot less damage which makes inferno a2 possible without having the best gear. A3/4 is tough but not impossible cept with packs with bad combinations. They removed reflect dmg an invulnerable minions

Overall I feel good about the game. It feels less of the grind and that they promote team play (mob hp in groups are lesser than previous). Classes are also rebalanced in terms of individual skills to encourage the use of the less utilised ones. This makes different builds more viable. Def worth coming back for

1.0.5 patch is out. legendaries are dropping like crazy

Billion has a different meaning than elsewhere?

Yes. In Europe they say "7 thousand million" instead of "7 billion" - 7,000,000,000.
