Updates For June 28th - 29th (Save Your Gold)

Here are the recent changes that were made to Diablo 3 over the past couple of days. For those who have not gotten past Act 1 Inferno yet, the drop rates of top tier items have been increased significantly.

With the recent changes, more top tier items will be available to players. This means that items on the Auction House will continue to become cheaper over the next few weeks.

If you need better gear/weapon(s) I would suggest you wait at least a week and you will be able to purchase higher DPS weapons and better armor for much less Gold than these items currently cost.
