    No way. Either A. the DiabloFans post is dead wrong, or B. crafting materials dropping with a low drop rate off RARE mobs and events means Blizzard has truly lost their mind.


    Those materials are for Legendary items. OF COURSE its gonna be hard to get. I prefer it be hard to get if it means good stats. Cant just easly get gear anymore via other means. AH is done and gone (thank god) and crafting is now worth wild while not being the best. From what I seen Legendary drops > Crafted Legendary > Reg crafting.


    Except crafted legendaries are basically "x stat" and then "5 random properties" making them just as random as any rare you find. Getting a rare drop off a rare spawn just for another random chance at a maybe good but probably not item isn't really worth anyone's time.

    The Showdown did a heavy rock/metal cover of Kansas' (Carry on) Wayward Son


    On a sidenote, I'd like to hear covers done by Incubus or 311. I believe these bands would do a hell of a job.


    You mentioned my favorite band, then you mentioned the band that does my favorite cover: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYuqrjI_n5c

    To be fair, I heard the 311 version of Love Song long before I heard The Cure do it. Also, Incubus does a pretty sweet cover of Let's Go Crazy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UjiBXtQgPII

    Unfortunately, it's live, but they have a studio version on Monuments and Melodies.

    I really need to binge watch the show. You guys have convinced me Grin


    I never binge watch anything, but I'm on season 4 after a couple weeks. The one thing that has bothered me a little though, is that too many of the episodes really go for a creep factor. I guess it should be expected on a show about fake supernatural abilities, but it feels excessive, especially around season 3/4.

    Also they did the theme song to "Clone High" which was also a "slip through the cracks" show, probably because MTV. I think anyone who would know who they are would know them from that. But yeah, I never heard "The Remedy" on the radio, but it and "Mercy Kiss" were apparently radio singles. "Suburban Muse" I think was my favorite song overall on the album. But it's one of those bands that get better each album. Except...Somnambulist hasn't got to me yet.

    I was introduced to this band by someone long ago It's basically just former Eels member Tommy Walter. It's basically mellow, alternative-sounding rock with a slight hint of electronic. I love the band, but I find it hard to find people who even know who they are. But Sublime Currency is one of my favorite albums ever, and it's my current obsession.

    I hope people will give it a listen.

    I just started watching the show, and am only a couple episodes into season 2. But it's a great fun show to watch. I[m not really having a reaction to it being cancelled, because I haven't been following the show. But I think eight seasons is a great success.

    Is there going to be an ending ending to the show, or is it just gonna be a usual episode to end it?
