I hope D3 has many more high quality sets/items than D2.
Like the topic states, I hope Blizzard really plays D2 and comes to realize they need many more options for high level sets and rare/unique weapons. The problem in D2 became the fact that everyone was wearing one or two sets(outside of PVP players who fashioned their own builds). As seen in game, everyone started to look the same. At the beginning of the game things were allright, everyone wanted frostburn gloves or tarnhelm, but eventually everyone started wearing the same armor and it got rediculous. Couldn't they create numerous very nice items/sets that were both rare and visually appealing? I hope they fix this issue in D3. They need to get out of this whole Tier1/Tier2 that I hope they don't bring from WoW into D3.
To fix this, I hope they put in numerous quality sets that both look good and function very well at high levels, so there will be many options for players wanting to have a "cool character" and be strong in game. Hopefully they will work on balance a bit more than they did for D2 so we won't have the whole SOJ issue again. I don't want to play with friends that look the exact same as me.
Also like others have stated, I hope they put ultra-rare items in game that are "godly" in a sense, but make their drop rate extremely low, or sets that are very hard to complete, but once complete create a new visual image on the character that is special. Oh... and they tack on the warden client for D3 thereby nullifying most attempts at duping/hacking.

I'm pretty sure there will be tons of new schtuff and new content will always be added ona regular basis. Only this time I hope they get the rares and uniques RIGHGT lol. In D2 the rares are the true uniques and the uniques are the true rares.
Re: I hope D3 has many more high quality sets/items than D2.
I just got back from a camping trip to hear about D3, but from what I have looked at so far, it seems to me like every single item will be class specific. If that is true then at the very worse, each class would look vastly different then another class, even if all the barbs looked the same, for example. I don't think it will be like that though, but that is just my opinion.

Please reiterate this in the character customization topic. This is the type of schtuff I'm talking about. Thank you.

Part of the problem is that melee is so underpowered that most people play casters. Casters mostly have to worry about +skills, whereas melees have to worry about many more stats.
Re: I hope D3 has many more high quality sets/items than D2.
they should just put a system in so that you can change the appearance of items to whatever you want so your character will look how you want it.
its dumb how you cant do that in d2. I mean, if I want a red sword, I should be able to change it red. if i want my tarnhelm to look like a great helm, I ought to be able to make it look like one!
Re: I hope D3 has many more high quality sets/items than D2.
I hope they bring back items with negative attributes like in the original Diablo.
It created some balance by sacrificing in one sense to gain in another.
I've been wondering about the drop system and how it works. It seems to me that everyone will see their own individual drops, but I'm guessing that these drops will be much less frequent for each character in order to thin out the amount of gear that everyone picks up. Essentially I think the same amount of loot will fall, it's just that the game will use a round-robin way in deciding who it drops for. I'm hoping that drops will not be character specific, otherwise the trading scene would be pretty dull.
Re: I hope D3 has many more high quality sets/items than D2.
I much prefer the pre-LoD days when rares were the norm and aside from a few popular uniques, every character was different. I'm not sure how uinques/sets should be handled, but I think it's pretty dumb that the best builds use the same exact items every time. Rares make it much more interesting since no two are the same.

This I just don't get. Dyes are great, also as a trading commodity, but changing appearances to make an item unrecognisable is over the top in my opinion. You wouldn't even be able to distinguish a level 90 from a level 12, since they would both look like a King in his armor. They would probably look exactly the same, as the low level guys would copy the highend items.
