Speculations, gold, warden, nerfs whatnot lets discuss!

Lets speculate for a bit.

Gold prices up or down? Personally i believe they can go further down because lets face it 1million takes what just barely over 1 hour to farm. (seen pics of guys pulling off 900k GPH!) And then theres the fact that a D3 account has no uppkeep, meaning theres no monthly fee. And the initial investement (a d3 key) is not that huge. And making a lvl 60 that can farm efficient takes little to no effort. Nor the task making gold take much effort. If i where to think of a number im thinking about 1$ pr million to gold selling sites in matter of days. And IF your able to keep your gold till RMAH i believe that it will be around 1-3$ pr million depending on what market your in and your global position.


Warden? Its no new news that Blizzard has activated Warden with a patch recently, i believe its currently just datamining to give the developers a picture of how the botting scene works and the extent of it right now. All their online games uses Warden and everyone with a few years or many in my case know that Warden is effective. But if your willing to work around it the botters can make it work. Not even to mention i also think that botting is healthy for a game to some extent as long as its moderated the way we see that blizzard uses a wave tactic to keep the average user scared to ever want to risk their high valued characters as farming characters. Thus keeping only a certain part of the community doing what they do best generating virtual currency that are converted into real currency. Also a part of most games that are needed to keep a certain part of the playerbase. In the end most players want to have fun, and with that comes getting phat loot that cost more then they have time to farm.


Whats your take on this?

I think Blizzard will start with banhammer in a few weeks..
I'm not gonna risk my main acc for botting gold. So indeed secondary account just to bot and let's see how it goes..

of course they will make a ban wave in weeks or so, but it's not a question of WHEN. . . you know the story.

and as far as main/secondary account, achievements really mean nothing, and I've sold $120 of gold so far, made my money back, so I don't care if I have to level up a few more 60s, get new gear etc, the only bad part is the good items I have will be gone ]:

Have to ask this also... How does one farm 1 gold a hour?

So far with lets say almost latest found farming exploit and with 240% GF i farm 400-500g per hour. So either there is 2xBetter place or the dude has 2x More GF.
Unless its MF which i believe is full of RNG. Farming Treasure Goblin spot,friend got it 10 times in a row i got it 0 in 1 hour. Not to mention the RNG in items. As a rule of thumb i try to keep the RNG to minimum.
Which brings another question what do you guys think MF or GF for a boter?
Also why do you think that 1 mil gold will be 1 Euro or Dollar? As far as I know many people are scared to buy from sites(talking about the newer generation of diablo players/or wow kidies) I honestly hope for 2-3 Euro for 1 Million and that is profit(damn Blizzard 30% cut). Also as far as i have seen gold seller sites are selling 10mil for 20 Euro.

Not saying that i make 1m pr hour, however there are pictures on both this board and on the Imortal board where ppl have farmed more then they earn (thats how to prove that youre average is actually keeping up properly). Where they earn in the 900k GPH range.


There are several threads on this forum where there are tips and tricks how to achieve this. Currently im In the 700k GPH range on my barbarian. That has fairly cheap gear, i assume its cost is around 1,5m at this point. @ 243GF, 25% RS, 2,08 Attack pr seconds, 35 GPR.
