The Samsung DT-35 is probably the best keyboard in the world. Pretty much every single Starcraft progamer uses it (and pounds away at it for 18 hours a day at 300 APM), but IIRC it's only available in Asia. Basically, it's a standard keyboard, but the touch is said to be just perfect.

I use the ...

Unless the item has "repairs 1 durability in X seconds" as a mod, there is nothing you can do to save your ethereal item. Well, of course you can socket it and put a Zod rune in it, but the chance of finding a Zod rune is so small so you will find 100000000000 excellent armours before you find a ...

@kipi: The current synergy system (i.e. post 1.10) in most cases does not punish players for selecting earlier skills, indeed it often forces them to selected lower-tier skills.

@Siberys: how is D1's character system better than D2? From all the evidence I have seen, there is far more variety to D2 ...

There is no way to unequivocally tell if an item is duped or not, however common dupes are usually documented by their stats and sometimes ilvl or appearance. Of course, someone could say have a legitimate 20/20/xx anni, but you should always assume items of any significant rarity are duped. That is ...

That said, many other operatic singers (and instrumentalists, and conductors, etc) have died in the last several years, all with talent equal to di Stefano, and each of them developed what they had to the best of their abilities. Why do people still bring up di Stefano? Probably because he was a ...

Avoid the Klemperer. During the 1960s his recordings suddenly became incredibly slow, after having been relatively fast through all of his life. Most of the singers can't handle his tempi in that Don Giovanni, though the Giovanni, Ghiaurov, and the Leporello, Berry, do a fine job. Consider, instead ...

I was wondering, Fable, if you could suggest a specific set to introduce me to Mozart's operas. They seem to be the only operas that I simply don't care for (probably because I just don't like light voices unless they have godlike coloratura mastery), but given the barren opera scene in Melbourne, I ...

1. Lightning sorc damage goes upto about 1-48K.
2. Hammerdin max damage is about 18K
3. I think norm Baal might be possible
4. Charge >>>> Conc.

Obviously you'll be sacrificing your other stats to achive the first two. +25 or so skills is quite achievable (+13 from charms, +1 from CTA, +2/3 from ...

How does the Europa Universalis series compare to Civilisation/Space Empires IV & V/MoO 2?

In dueling I'd say the greatest advantage of a sorc is teleport.
Every PvP'er except shapeshifters has Teleport in PvP. The greatest advantages of the sorc are the FCR tables, Energy Shield, and relatively high damage skills.

For PvP, the only skill you're using if you're a pure fire sorc is ...

You take a -50 res penalty in Nightmare, and an additional -50 in hell (totaling -100 in Hell). If you want better resists you simply must get better equipment.

That's not true at all. DND was made for balance, but in your case, even if we're talking cRPG (which is less balanced, and DND 3 is also less balanced), you're assuming A LOT to say it's not.
Alright, perhaps it is intended to be somewhat balanced (though the fact that there have been no patch ...
