Paragon Level - The new mf system?

[lanceuppercut]

is there going to be a counter for the 500 or will you have to leave it to guesswork? what i want to avoid is 490 elite kills on a4/inferno then deciding to start a new char and not realising and getting a crappy a1/normal legendary item!

is this 500 per account or if you have diff chars will they have their own 500 counter?

The counter thing is fake, it's fan made.

Sadly. Who wanna bet that the paragon system is crap compared to that idea

I bet there will be some form of daily quests, which will give more reputation than just killing Diablo over and over.... Kill x number of elites with this affix, Kill Leoric with 4 people in a cooop game, etc etc. We will hear tomorrow..

The game provides a system in which you basically have rares-on-demand. It's called The Blacksmith, aka Haedrig. Recycle your useless garbage drops, and roll some stuff.

I wish I could craft rings. Even if they were only certain ilvls, that'd be fine.

It's clear they intended Covetous to make jewelry, there's plenty of references to it in the chat! Even the Game Guide mentions it:

Covetous Shen, the Jeweler, can construct jewelry and combine lesser gems into more powerful ones.

Probably something to keep people busy, some band-aid system after they realise how awful of an idea such an easily obtainable level cap and infinite free-respecs were for the replayability of the game.

Has anyone stopped to consider what it means to "kill an elite?" As in, will the counter go up 1 per pack, or if you kill a champ pack (blues), for instance, will you get 3? I saw someone counting it that way, but didn't think that made much sense. I imagine it's one per spawned pack.

Why would you waste your money on the Artisans when you can buy equivalent items from the AH for cheaper?

If you choose to not use the AH as it spoils your fun?
