Are you adding the percentages or multiplying? A 50% reduction on top of a 25% reduction is a 62.5% reduction, as opposed to a 75% reduction for example.

Hostages? **** em'
It's just like WoW when everyone wanted armor/spell pen. It was the stat that everyone wanted because it was hands-down-no-question the best, so no one wanted anything that dropped that didn't have IAS.
In the long run this should be good for the game. Obviously it sucks now, but oh well.

Yoshi: The items give percentages to add up, so I used to have 15+15+20+15+12=77% increased attack speed. With a 50% reduction I'm now only getting 38% (I don't know if they round up or down) increased attack speed. So from x1.77 to x1.38.
I gave the wrong old attack, I had 2.6 with a different weapon and my current one was closer to 2. But stacking life on hit really only worked above 2, so to be completely unable to reach that means they're probably both kind of garbage stats now. I mean, better than getting a different class ability but weaker than anything else that still stacks.
I feel bad for the suckers spending actual money on IAS last week

I feel bad that I was lazy about setting my Paypal account back up and didn't sell my IAS stuff like I had intended.

It definitely hurt a bit but I was doing pretty well in Act III on my own now which is a nice change. And I could easily farm Zultan Kulle, overall pretty amazing! I suspect they may nerf the champion packs again at some point because I was getting 3 rares on a lot of them.
Also LoH is still really good if you're melee and want to accomplish anything. I'm sitting at about 1,250.

I think I was actually doing worse in act II than I was previously, but that may be because I need a new spec and weapons and gear.

Maybe, I mean my gear actually jumped a lot recently from playing the AH. I'm at about 4300 armor (without shield) and 900 resists with the resist aura. My damage is my weakest point though, only around 12-15k. I sold an amulet I bought for 200k gold, for $75 and have bought a bunch of items (While keeping myself at $75 by scalping something that's cheaper than it should be).
It's kind of weird, I'm super frugal, but spending real money I made through an imaginary game I don't mind as much and actually feel pretty good putting it back into the game economy. Granted I still wanna hit $300 with it and buy a Vita.
My damage before the nerf was sitting around 21k. I'll check it out when I get home.

Glad I never geared my DH for IAS to begin with; crit chance/crit damage all the way. They did nerf DH nether tentacles too though, which hurts for killing bosses; they nerfed boss drops anyway so who cares.
