Diablo 3 Reaper of Souls News: More Tactical Gameplay & Importance of Health HD

Subscribe for More Reaper of Souls: http://bit.ly/ziggyd In this video I talk about some of the new Diablo 3 Reaper of Souls information that has been datamined and posted by Wyatt Cheng about what gameplay will be like in the expansion pack. Blizzard is planning on removing life steal and changing the way we look at health and healing to make the game more tactical. Overall the changes look pretty exciting - hopefully they can execute them well. Diablo 3 Reaper of Souls Playlist: http://bit.ly/D3RoSPlaylist Diablo 3 Vanilla Playlist: http://bit.ly/D3Playlist WYATT CHENG ON THE PROBLEMS OF THE CURRENT HEALTH SYSTEM: MP4 = fine, MP5 = one shot. Avoiding this. Want clever players to be able to play higher than their gear should allow. Avoiding the game being tuned around 1shots as this makes health irrelevant. Rapid healing reduces the importance of DoTs and small attacks. They want your current health level to be meaningful. 50% health means you need to play carefully. There is very few opportunities for tactical play. With rapidly changing health there is no opportunities to react tactically, you either die or are fine. SOLUTIONS / THINGS BEING TESTED: Removing Life leech from skills and gear. Tuning monster damage. Increased emphasis on life on hit, regeneration, small healing skills & life globes. Tuning proc coefficients to make all skills viable.
