Rubberbanding Fight Continues Despite Blizzards attempt at fixing rubberbanding in the 1.0.8a patch, it continues to be a problem. Below Lylirra wrote an instructive post about the issue and stated that it is currently being worked on.
Blizzard Tracker: May 21, 2013
Rubberbanding (especially as it relates to movement-based abilities like Whirlwind, Strafe, and Tempest Rush) is an issue that may not always come with a quick-fix. The source of the problem is not always easy to identify, and sometimes it may not always be the same thing for every player. As a result, there will be times where we implement potential fixes which we know will work for some players, but dont know if itll work for all plays. In other cases, well make improvements -- i.e. changes that probably wont stop rubberbanding from happening completely, but should at least help reduce the frequency with which rubberbanding occurs. This was the case for 1.0.8a and with previous hotfixes weve made throughout the year. Again, we know these fixes may not resolve the issue for every player, but they should help reduce the occurrences of rubberbanding, and lessen the effects should rubberbanding occur for most players.
Now the important thing is that were still working on these issues -- just because we implemented some changes that we hope will make the situation better doesnt mean weve called it day. So, if youre still experiencing rubberbanding, here are a few things you can do.
First, you can try performing the following troubleshooting steps to ensure that external causes are not adding to this issue (this isnt required, but recommended):
1. Ensure that your network connection is optimized. 2. Make sure that no other program is interfering with the game by running in aSelective Startup. 3. Check for updates to any drivers.
If those steps dont help -- or if youve chosen to skip them -- please let us know so we can continue looking into this issue by posting in the Bug Report forum (and be sure to check out this guide on reporting: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/4926752662). Thats really the best location for those types of reports, as itll allow our QA representatives to document them and forward them on to our development team for additional review.
(We want your experience in the Diablo III to be as fun as possible, so working on these issues is important to us. That also means were extremely grateful for any reports receive that can help us troubleshoot -- so thank you to everyone whos already posted!)
BoA Items Stats Searchable on AH? Blizzard has stated that bind on account items will be searchable in the AH sometime in the future.
Bump. Should at least be able to see the stats (Edit)
We agree, its a pain in the booty to try to find upgrades for a BoA item on the AH right now. Not a big issue, but still something thatd be a nice QoL change. Just spoke to Wyatt, and this is something thats been tasked to be added (dont have an ETA, though). Source
Buff idea for level 100 paragon Getting to 100 paragon is a rewarding experience, but most people think that it would feel a lot more rewarding if we got some sort of buff or some other perk after reaching 100. A player asked this question on the forums and it looks like Blizzard is interested in the idea, so we may be seeing some sort of buff in the future:
How about a extra buff for paragon 100 huh? Next patch maybe?
Certainly an idea I can pass on. :)
What kind of buff (or other rewards) would you find meaningful? Keep in mind, wed prefer to not to put players in a position where theyd feel like they have to farm up to p100 or miss out on something critical, so try to form your suggestions around that principle if you can.
When does the anniversary buff end? For those enjoying the buff, enjoy it while it lasts! Looks like it will be ending tommorow at 9 am PDT: It will end at May 22 @ 9:00 a.m. PDT (well be posting another reminder tomorrow evening).
New Diabolical Facebook Covers and Twitter Headers Blizzard has posted some Diablo 3 themed facebook covers and twitter headers you can use.
Its been a busy year in Sanctuary. When the risen dead arent threatening New Tristram and Azmodans forces arent relentlessly pouring into Bastions Keep, a few (hundred) wasps can always be found keeping travelers company outside Caldeum. Despite these threats, heroes like you have kept a steadfast watch on the forces of the Burning Hells, and your tenacity deserves recognition.
As a salute to the trillions of monsters valiantly vanquished in the past year, weve crafted some new Facebook covers and Twitter headers so that you can celebrate Diablo IIIs one-year anniversary in style while staying connected with fellow Nephalem outside of Sanctuary.
Enjoy!

Be sure to visit the official Diablo Facebook and Twitter pages, too. (We have cake!)
Diablo 15-Year Anniversary Soundtrack:
Hellish anniversaries abound! The Blizzard Music section of our site has been updated to includeDiablo�s 15-year Anniversary album. We think the games score is just as atmospheric and haunting now as when it was released (back when our computers had a whopping 16 MB of RAM).
Visit the page to read notes from the albums composers, listen to samples of classic Diabloarrangements, and download the album (or individual tracks) through iTunes.
