As for how to get them to lvl 8 in the first place, hang out in global 820/beg guild members/pay for missions?  I've never gotten close to lvl 8 on any of my masters in any league. vvv Totally forgot about the prophecies. Getting triple XP really helps. whypick1 fucked around with this message at 17:10 on Apr 10, 2017 |

You get more xp the higher the level, so high-level maps give more. Also prophecies giving bonus exp. And then there's joining dailies groups. I got Vorici to 8 the other day without doing groups though, so it's not all that quickly. Just playing a lot!

Ah ok. Will look into joining a rotation and the prophecies. I'm not in the goon guild, every time it seems full but will message someone tonight to see if I can get in. Is the unique they sell random daily/after each map/interaction?

There is 20 spots free right so post your character name here, and someone will send an invite. Completely random, and they dont always sell one.

Rakeris posted:So if I just got a skyforth to drop, what build should I do that is complacently broken with them? Skyforth doesn't break anything it's just really good for a CI-Crit-VP build, which is currently one of the most common build types. It gives power charges even on bosses, prevents stuns, reduces mana reservation so you can probably fit in another aura if you take mana reservation nodes from the tree(which are right next to CI and VP), AND it has max movespeed.

Mana reservation, easy power charges against single targets, and stun management are all things that people use an item slot or multiple sockets to get one of. Having that all packed into a pair of boots, which is one of the lowest contention item slots, is pretty stupid. Throw in 30% move speed and 120 flat mana because hey why not. You can't call it broken because it doesn't do anything new that could break something. It's just a stupidly powerful stack of pre-existing benefits that contributes to an already overused playstyle with an extremely negligible downside. It's a poo poo item design-wise compared to something like abyssus or kaom's heart.

It's too many good things on one item. You don't want anything to always be the answer to "what should I do", since that means anything you create is either poo poo compared to it or has to surpass it. An ideal scenario is a wide variety of options that fit different builds or play styles.

Right. It's the giant stack of upside with the pitiful downside that really does it. Abyssus for instance doesn't add any fundamentally new mechanics to the game either, but it's interesting because it has huge up and downsides that you have to work your build around. Skyforth, the downside is no life regen and I guess "you need lot of mana to avoid stuns" both of which are almost implicitly addressed by a build that would want to wear the item. It'd be like Kaom's Heart providing 500 hp and 2000 armor and a 6link, with a downside like 50% less mana. Sure it's technically a negative but almost no huge life build is going to give a poo poo about it.

Dev Q+A part 4quote:I was wondering if there has been any consideration of a form of a side pouch for dedicated currency pickup, as inventory slots are valuable and I usually can't afford to carry all the currency that would otherwise enhance my experience of maps and such without sacrificing that space I would otherwise need. I'd be down with this plus a button to pick up all nearby currency automatically (picking up all the coins from a Perandus Coffer blows donkey dicks). quote:Why are bosses given complete immunity to certain ailments rather than "reduced effectiveness" or "Unaffected by X"? The latter prevents bosses from being trivialized, while also not gimping legitimate builds that rely on targets simply being under those ailments. Good to hear

Vasudus posted:This is the first league that I've shaped my atlas and I'm not sure I'm going to do it again. I like the variety, even if some maps are fuckers. i'd probably do the t11+t12 shaping again and then unlock most maps in t13+. maybe instead of an optimized atlas i'd just skip the lovely maps (crematorium, dark forest both come to mind)

if low currency only retains any value because people dont pick them up i think thats more of a problem with the currency sinks than anything else

Do actual people even pick it up tho? I've just assumed its 99% bots picking up wisdom scrolls and alts and poo poo and reselling them.

That's not the only reason it retains value obviously but you can see how stuff like trans orbs will probably plummet if everyone gets like 20 more each map run

I would settle for a "when you click to pick up a currency item, you also pick up the same items nearby" function, like how Diablo 3 does it with gems.

Would an EK Nova build be fine with a phys to light Vinktars? On a bit of a budget, so it would be nice.

Lungboy posted:I played too much D2 to leave anything gold on the floor When I was bored in D2 I'd make a game called Free Stuff and fill Rogue Encampment with 1 gold stacks. People would join and, though they would have run by measly 1000 gold stacks in Hell A4, would see hundreds of piles of 1g and spend time picking up all of them as fast as I could throw them out. I'm sure there's some economics principle to be extrapolated from that but I'm not smart enough to isolate it.

please knock Mom! posted:That's not the only reason it retains value obviously but you can see how stuff like trans orbs will probably plummet if everyone gets like 20 more each map run oh no, currency traders won't be able to make fat stacks off their transmute/aug trades . If they did the vacuum loot for tp,wisdom,transmutes,augs,whetstones, and armor scraps I think it wouldn't be that awful. Then again we are creeping closer to diablo 3 ease of play territory which is what this game tries to avoid.

I pick up all that stuff but I also am still leveling and have no currency and am not at endgame yet on my first character in the league so maybe you aren't considering that niche.

Casual players who right now pick up low currencies which more hardcore players just buy from them in bulk, or will this actually be a boon to them because they'll waste less time on low value/time playstyles

Alright friends, I need your help with challenges. I've got a few ex to finish these off to hit 36, but not sure of the best way to get them. Invaders: Alpha Paradisae - supposedly spawns in Southern Forest / City of Sarn / Vault, but I'm 40 runs in and no luck so far. Is this just RNG loving me? Warbands: Otesha is a Mutewind, so she should show up in Sulphur Wastes, but let me know if I'm wrong. Talisman Bosses: I have 4 left here; are they tied to any specific tileset, or is it just dumpstering level 2 talismans into circles until I get lucky? Twinned Maps: I don't think I have enough grind time to get to Zana 8, is it more worth it to roll these maps or just buy them?
