idk, it feels like they're saying "we have unstable servers, but it's your fault anyways if you die on HC because of those unstable servers", I was just wondering, that's all. edit: and just to clarify, i'm talking about the lag spikes that was server wise, everybody was lagging for the past 2 nights around midnight pst. | ||

When people die to lag, it's usually not a server problem. It's a problem in their connection to the server (either on the user end, or on the ISP that Blizzard uses). A problem on the server itself would affect all state on the instance being run on the server, including the world itself. The game would freeze, but not lag - lag indicates that the server is still working normally to process actions, but those actions are not reaching your client in time. An unstable server may crash, but that won't kill your character because a crashed server will not continue to process the instance. If you don't trust your connection to the Blizzard server (including the ISP on Blizzard's end), you might want to stay away from HC. | ||

It doesn't matter, Blizzard doesn't restore HC characters. If a Blizzard GM comes to your house and runs your character into a mob, you'd still not get it back. Blizz will, under no circumstance, ever restore a HC character. On topic: Started a barb. Gloriously died at level 11 due to being jailed by the three blue mobs in wortham. Jailed, three simultaneous axe slams -> kaput. I should have known. I hate these guys. | ||

Ran around around through act 1 nightmare a bit on my own. Disconnect. Dead. To 3 of those standard fat zombies. First disconnect I had, first time I'm not with my buddy, that timing. Another monk bites the dust. Level 35, act 1 nightmare, died because of another random disconnect. Monk is cursed. Meanwhile my Wizard is comfortably cruising through act 1 hell. | ||

I was caught by a gold elite who had Jailer+Mortar. Potion still a good 15 seconds from cooldown, Preparation wasn't ready and Discipline was minimal, I could barely see my health bar, the screen was red, I got jailed and I see fire balls lobbing straight at me. I'm still firing ball lightning with whatever hatred I had and already saying to myself.... "It's over.... I'm fucked". As the killer mortar fireball was inches from landing suddenly.... I was alive!!! Full HP, Hatred, Disc and realised that I had LEVELED UP from killing one of the adds behind the elite. Finished the elite off, didn't drop anything good , TP'ed back home and called it a night. Been 2 days now, I haven't touched my HC DH since. | ||

So a legendary Stormshield dropped off the gobo, and a skeleton popped out of a random bonepile right around at the same time. Dude "got stunned by Stormshield" and didn't even notice the people yelling at him on mumble or the skeleton running toward his poor magic find geared barb. One shotted by skele after the gobo dies with an unidentified 26%block Stormshield and a weapon in his inventory he had up on D2JSP for 15mil gold. Fucking epic | ||

Was doing those dungeons or whatever before Kulle's boss fight, I was doing fairly well until my templar buddy decided that it was a good idea to pull two rare packs, one with vortex and the other with the frozen thingy. Anyways, I got pulled into a corner full of skeletons, got frozen and brutally murdered, nowhere to run + Show Spoiler + RIP JackieChan | ||

Bad day of internet, was starting to clear up so I decided to poke my head in. Completely locked up. Instantly, I knew I fucked up. I knew I fucked up and there wasn't any going back. Dead. | ||
