I use the orb enchant and the meteor enchant and I've got quite a bit of lucky hit and despite orbs low % it spawns meteors at a strong rate (almost always on a cast of meteor or teleport or w.e). pretty funny that both PoE and Diablo have death effects consistently one of the most lethal things in the game

I got a Tempest Roar from my first sacred unique cache from the Iron Wolves, then I got another shortly after hitting WT4, and apparently I missed a drop because when I ported back to town to check my stash there was a Tibaults waiting for me. Guess I can finally play Tornado Druid after wanting to since launch. edit: An on death explosion is the only death I had all the way up to pit 50. I don't think you really need to wait to masterwork gear. Maybe if you want to go all the way to 12/12 you should have a perfect item, but you can knock out level 29 in like 3-4 minutes and get that first 4 levels done on your gear really quickly. It is also faster to level in the pit than in NMD, so you can knock both things out at the same time. TyrantWD fucked around with this message at 15:25 on May 18, 2024 |

How much of a difference does the 925 gear score make? Is there something in the game that puts a lot of weight on that number that makes the encounters easier? The different on weapon damage is pretty apparent, so I understand that, but for armor it's only a piddy sum from, say, an 850 piece. For example, I got a Ramaladni's Magnum Opus for my barb build, two in fact, and the 925 sword does at least 200+ damage but it has worse stats on it than the 850. I use the 925 because of the damage but I've seen armor like that too. Last season I really didn't pay much attention to the loot stuff. I stacked the stats my build needed and really didn't care for the rest but now my friend and I are probably going to go the distance so I'm trying to understand this stuff a little better. Plus the fact that there are a lot less stats to sift through.

If you get the Dolmen Stone on druid, it's bugged, the boulders don't spawn sometimes Well at least I still have Andariel's from that run to play with. Doing ok so far with a trampleslide build since I also found the landslide ring

925 has the highest top end for the variables rolled on that gear.

On the plus side glyph xp is pretty fast so I won't need to do many nightmare dungeons relatively so

stringless posted:The Iron Wolves content definitely won't be in Eternal (no big deal), and you'll struggle at best against world bosses because there won't be anyone with you (problem). I did an eternal realm world boss last night and there were plenty of people. Also the helltides are definitely updated and there’s a quest to start The Pit. Pretty sure the only things you’d miss out on are the iron wolves stuff and the (free) BP rewards.

Yeah it's been bugged for the last eight hours or so for some people, including me. Quick fix is apparently in QA so hopefully coming soon enough.

What's the best way to level when I'm at 80? Helltides don't drop 925s so I'm thinking nmds or less but don't know what's better.

NMDs and Helltides with the elixir that bumps up the enemy level.
|
# ? May 18, 2024 20:47 |
|
NMDs are a great way to speed up the 80-100 climb since they give a preposterous amount of XP and also you want to do a small handful of high-level NMDs to get your glyphs upgraded Profane Mindcage Helltides are also good but NMDs seem to have some sort of inherent multiplier to XP that makes them comically fast for leveling.
|
# ? May 18, 2024 20:53 |

Yeah, I should specify Helltides with the elixir if you can get in with a group of randos summoning the boss. Otherwise NMDs are probably more consistent xp. I've been sticking with the S and A Tier ones on the Maxroll tier guide and went from 80 to 90 in like an hour last night with some Helltide boss trains mixed in. Don't even stop to pick up loot in the NMDs, just gogogo. Anything worthwhile will be put in your stash anyway. Also, yeah NMDs with the 20% glyph xp boost from Ashes feel really nice now. Already have my 4 main glyphs up to level 15 . I've had one, maybe two, that high at this point in the past. Paying2Lurk fucked around with this message at 21:09 on May 18, 2024 |

Alright, that's what I was doing in the 70s to get my glyphs up. I think I have 3 or 4 at 15 which was a loving slog previously. Level 60 plus ones are slower and I die more so I'm doing mid 50s quickly currently. I'm just getting tired of tides already. I feel like I have to be in for the whole hour and the timer and rotation of them is annoying.

Looks like gems are back on the menu, I saw my fragments jump from 40-50 per drop to 200-250 per drop mid dungeon, and I got as many in the last couple hours than I had in the previous 20

So if you select Skip Campaign, does it waive the requirement to complete it on the higher world tiers if you haven't done that on any character at least once? I do want to complete it at least once but I am curious in case if I decide I don't want to later. Also, took Druid and Sorc for a quick spin with Wind Sheer/Tornado and Frost Bolt/Frozen orb, respectively, in the tutorial dungeon. Both seem pretty cool but I am feeling Druid a bit more.

As far as I understand you can't do the campaign at all on a character who you choose "skip campaign" on. World tier is just a knob you turn whenever you want to change difficulty and reward. It's not like D2 normal/nightmare/hell.

Fighting 100 Duriel/Andariel is a waste. Just do the 200 versions to more efficiently convert mats into ubers (you want to do the normal, non-Tormented versions of the grig/varsh/beast/zir fights, though)
