What some friends have been doing (Wizard and Witch Doctor, each single player instances) is farming the first boss of actIV. This is done very easily by both of those classes (as in 15-25 second kills) but for me (and most others) it can take up to 4-5 minutes depending on gear.
For DH you pretty much have to use 1 of 2 tactics, both of which take forever depending on gear available to you:
-Trap spec. You pretty much just grab Caltrops, rune it with damage and then spec for run speed and reduced disc cost. Just kite everything (including boss) in a circle around the room 'til they die; get some hungering arrow shots off when you can, don't risk hatred shots so you can always be at 15% inc run speed.
-Multishot/Roottraps spec. Pretty much the same as the previous one, just faster but more risky. Traproot a group, multishot 3-4 times, run til disc nearly full again, repeat. Try to get in some single target attacks on the boss.
I still think siegebreaker is much easier and you can get lucky with Neph stacks before :p

Finally beat Inferno Belial (yeah yeah, but I hate that fight so much), gotta bring myself to wanting to deal with actIII. Thankfully Tyrael is with you most of the latter part of the act, so getting through those parts shouldn't suck too much I hope.

I've been farming the pony level (with a 5 stack, followed by a warden/butcher kill if I feel like it, popping all chests after with a 2nd char following) and 5-stack siegebreaker with a 2nd MF char sitting there to get better/more loot. Playing the AH pays much better though, so not sure how much more farming I'm going to do until I find a good spot in Act 4. The rate that weapon prices are dropping on the AH makes a lot of the farming obsolete.

Yeah I noticed that. A lot of the high-900 weapons are less than 300k now, and you can pay about 5-600 for a 1k+ now, last week you'd be paying close to a mil for that. =/

I bought the digital download so I didn't get any, but does anyone have a spare guest pass? I'm looking to get 2-3 for co-workers to lan with.

Yeah. It took about 600-700 resists and 4700 armor after glass cannon and force armor. Lots of kiting and off-screen shooting. Not a spec that can get 5stack with. |

Lol. Amazing video, Kohler. Already done. I actually rolled a Wizard for solo play and a Witch Doctor for group play with Cinna. Think I'm just going to put the Barb to bed for a while till they adjust Inferno and class balances. Farming gear = awesome. Farming only 1 specific type of gear and if there isn't +resist all, it's useless = not awesome.
Kohmie, don't recall my battletag offhand. Will add you tomorrow once home or post mine.
