I'm thinking that since it's supposedly total EXP based, and scales differently that your other low plvl characters didn't add up enough to give you a full level. But who knows.

I've got a thread going on reddit for figuring out the new account paragon experience chart.

http://www.reddit.com/r/Diablo/comme...ragon_merging/

Looks like each account paragon level after 100 is roughly the same as going from 99-100 in regular paragon.

INVIS had paragon 1000 and got account paragon 376. Edit: looks like there might be a sudden drop in the required experience after paragon 100. It's all the same going up to 100, and then gets weird for people who get results over 100. So far it looks like it drops from 320m for 100 down to 100m for 101, then grows from there at about 0.0775% per level. Just need more verification from people around account paragon 101 about what their next required level is.

INVIS had paragon 1000 and got account paragon 376, which worked out to average 340 million experience for the levels after 100, compared to about 320 million for 99-100 regular paragon. Consistent with the experience going up very slowly - like a 0.05% increase each level.

MMmmmm, data.

From other reports, I think the requirements for random invitations were really low - like anyone with over 100 hours played and logged in at all in the last month got in the draw. Anyone who wasn't friends/family/press/streamer has pretty low odds.

Congrats! I usually get into Blizzard betas on the second or third wave of the normal beta phases, so I'm not even in "check my email regularly" mode yet. Not until after New Years most likely.

I'm not sure, with all of the 180's and great changes they are putting into RoS, this just might be Lord of Destruction levels of awesome. Honestly, I'm very amazed at just how much tweaking and new content Blizzard is putting into RoS, they are literally fixing almost every complaint the players have had since launch. It's an incredible effort. Really makes me wonder just how much Jay's influence did indeed ruin the game initially.

Have you played it? I couldn't get into DII when it came out and it took LoD for me to enjoy the game. So, yes, this looks kinda like the same situation to me, except that I already enjoyed D3 to a fair degree.

Well shit. I have almost 1500 hours on my D3 account, but Ive put D3 on the back burner til RoS comes out. I didn't get anything :(. Im on WoW damn near every day though, so my bnet account is plenty active.

Seems you can level up really fast with the rifts which is great.
Plus it looks very polished, here's hoping for a early 2014 release.

Not happening not ever. The PC version is a different game with higher mob density than the console versions.

God, so jealous right now. I've put D3 on hold now for months waiting for them to come out with 'Loot 2.0/any new update' for months. At least I have a PS4 to hold me over for now. May look into getting an Xbox One if I ever see one on the shelf in the store in the next couple of months but I'd rather sink my time into RoS. Looks so good based on the streams I've watched.

Too early to tell and I would imagine that even more changes are coming to RoS after the initial release (like PvP stuff).

However the difference in quality between launch vanilla D3 and launcher RoS is going to be absurd. I can hardly think of any expansion that is as big of a difference as that two. Granted that D3 improved a lot since then but RoS will improve too so who knows what we will end up with.

And Crusader's Falling Sword skill is hype as fuck! Whenever he is about to land on a group of Elites I just hold my breath and think of this gif:
