Look forward to when I can farm mp 3 lol. I think u could farm a3 mp0 ^^ I dont understand what you are trying to say. Either that I am not as geared as I think, or that I am overgeared ?
You can do mp1 no problem but more than that you are probably just slowing yourself down 'cause your dps is to low...
I solo mp3 from time to time but I have 129k dps unbuffed.... and I still find it isnt THAT efficient.

I agree 100%. I'm at 150k DPS with 950AllRes and 60K HP as a Witch Doctor and I still think it's almost dumb to farm on higher MP levels. The reward just isn't there for how much it slows you down. I'd rather fly through it safe and easy doing runs uber fast than sit there and fight to not even have much better drops or XP. Which I guess is changing with next patch ^^

Ya for sure. When I said I don't play on higher MP levels I meant like 5+, I still do 1 and 2 a lot since it still goes fast / is efficient.

Yep, but I agree, when the patch hits, higher mp will be soooo good

You should be careful using macros, they are against the ToS and many players have been temp and permanently banned for them (even macros built into mice). What I meant was dodging the pools Belial creates while constantly hitting him. Obviously this becomes almost impossible one he hits his enrage timer (around the 3rd wave of pools usually).

Hi all, what kind of stats do I need to run Act 3 MP0 solo as a demon hunter? I'm currently sitting in Act 2 at 48k dps and 480k ehp, but am scared to move on.

DPS seems a bit low but you could always join a game with a friend who can handle A3 easily to help kind of ease you in to it and see how you hold up. I think u'd be able to live etc, just don't know if it'd be efficient / super-safe for you yet.

Interesting, there was a discussion about this in the CM/WW thread where no one seemed to be able to find any evidence of anyone getting banned for this. But that was a month ago or so, maybe things have changed...
That's kind of sad actually, without using macros there are literally zero viable high MP builds for wiz.

Here's one of the places where I heard of this happening: http://www.diablofans.com/topic/84525-banned-in-diablo-3/page__st__60 Poster wheunis @ 26 January 2013 - 09:22 PM tells his story of how he was temp-banned for using a simple 2-hotkey macro.
It's all just posts on forums on the interwebs so take it for what it is but I don't see any way to get more solid proof of these things happening save for official statements/posts by Blizzard representatives.

60 k is good for a3, 480 ehp with dodge is good enough.

I have a razer naga and have been using the software that came with that for about 6 months now with no issue. Literally hold down one button on my mouse and it spams 5 buttons for me. They shouldn't have allowed nor created a build that requires that amount of button mashing if they didn't want people to do it.

Never heard about the macro thing... have never tried using one.
