This will tell you how to complete the achievement Bashanishu.

Heading to the Shrine of Rashanishu in act 2 at the Dahlgur Oasis an event will start that gives you the blade after completion. There you will find Rakanishu's Blade. Bashiok will also be in the area and you must equip the the blade and do damage to Bashiok. You do not need to melee him down the the blade the whole fight just doing a swing will be enough.

Bashiok on the other hand is just a rare spawn monster that wonders around the oasis. people have found him in all difficultys. The event will not always be in Dahlgur Oasis when you check, so just restart your game and try again if you cannot find him.

The dungeon will only spawn on Nightmare+ difficulty. At the end is a boss named Jay Wilson. Killing this mob gives you the Feat of Strength.

To find this area it is right after defeating the Skeleton King. Fastest way to get there is selecting the Shattered Crown quest and pick the part to open the gate.

Diablo3: Auction House 10 Item Max Exploit

So did you like everyone else put up a bunch of auctions that have no chance of selling and now your basically locked out from posting more auctions until they expire? I have made a work-around.

Okay so we have 10 auctions of a bunch of gear with a day left and don't want to wait it out. Right now you can buy your own auctions. You will lose 15% of the gold the auction goes for but it is better than waiting 2 days to post your gear on the Gold Auction House just so everything can be devalued by then. It is much easier to find those items also if you instead of posting auctions for 15,000, sell it for 14,991. Makes it easier to find.

Also when they hotfix the ability to buy your own auctions you can still have a buddy buy the auction for you also.

Diablo3: Nephalem Valor

Right now Blizzard is working on the Nephalem Valor buff. A level 60 buff for all characters, passive ability.

Nephalem Valor is a new system introduced in Diablo III. It is intended among other systems to make sure that the end game is fun and exciting and also that the game is balanced so a 3-minute run of the same area won't be the most efficient way to acquire loot.

Nephalem Valor is one of the major new systems in Diablo III and it kicks in at level 60. It is still in testing and Blizzard is still working out the details. Here’s how it currently works internally: Rare and Champion packs already have great loot on them. By killing a Rare or Champion pack, not only do you get their loot, but you’ll also receive a buff granting you increased magic find and gold find. However, if you change a skill, skill rune, passive, or leave the game, the buff disappears. As an extra reward, if you kill a boss while this buff is active, you’ll receive extra loot drops from that boss.

The exact amount of magic find and gold find provided by the buff is still being reviewed, as is the amount of extra loot you get from a boss while the buff is active. Blizzard is also playing around with whether or not the buff stacks, what the duration should be, and whether or not it should persist through death. The buff should be strong enough to make staying in your current game more rewarding than creating a new game. At the same time, if the buff is too strong, it risks making shorter play sessions feel not worthwhile.

This system is expected to encourage players to stick with a skill build of their choice, select an area of the game they enjoy, and sweep it for rare and champion packs on their way to a boss, finishing off a run with a boss that’ll be worth killing. If you wanted a shorter play session you could be done at that point, but if you have more time, the path of least resistance would ideally be to stay in the same game and make your way towards the next boss.
