So I can use the gift to add a slot, and then still re-roll one of the stats as well, correct?

Also if you rolled a socket into a weapon you can roll the socket into another stat and then gift it to get the socket back.

I’m up to 428 paragon, and GR74. The only piece of gear I’m still missing is Focus (set ring).

You are a bell monk right? I'd recommend a CoE/Zodiac or CoE/Unity (+Unity on your follower) over Focus/Restraint.

I'd roll the cooldown to thorns damage.

Thorns is a secondary. I'd roll life regen to attack speed and stick it on your follower or use it in a zbarb/znec build. Alternatively, FR -> globe healing for a zmonk build.

I don't know if cooldown reduction works on followers or not. It probably doesn't.

The disruptive powers of excessive national fecundity may have played a greater part in bursting the bonds of convention than either the power of ideas or the errors of autocracy.

I'm pretty sure someone tested it and the answer is "it does, but who the gently caress cares".

Those 15 souls sure will come in handy.

Ill probably throw it on a follower, though generally speaking what stats should you prioritize on followers? I only ever focus on the items that give raw abilities like oculus, thunderfury, scourge, azurewrath, etc. They won't die so long as you have the legendary accessory, so just try and build up their damage as much as possible?

On another note-

I got bored of my DMO wizard, hit GR 80 with an R6 barbarian, and now am using him to spec out a monk. I know that Sunwuko WoL is generally regarded as the top monk build for pushing right now, but I'm under the impression that it's sort of squishy/long range and I don't really wanna jump back into that playstyle since I'm playing HC.

Is Uliana the next best for rifts? I like that the gameplay seems a bit more involved and it looks like they got rid of some of the snapshot mechanics which just seemed like a hassle.

CDR on your Templar or Enchantress is a MASSIVE boost for soloing GRs. That’s a lot more healing and CC

I'm at the annoying stage where I can do GR67 but not GR70, and no upgrades are dropping or rolling. GR68 is tight but doable, and I got an unbeatable boss the one time I tried it.

Also the Monkey Dungeon is bugged, it spawned three less enemies than needed for mastery. I know this because I got to that point with over a minute to go and explored the entire place before the limit.

Farm 20 Keys and go fishing, you’ll nail a 70 with minutes to spare if you reasonably do a 67

If it's anything like Uliana's set dungeon, enemies can spawn stuffed in odd corners which causes them to not show up on the minimap until you gain full LOS on them.

Can you post your build? If you are wearing sunwuko, you must have almost no other supporting legendaries at all if you can't annihilate a 70.

Standard Epiphany version. Just got up to 600k damage, gems leveled to 40+, but I don't have two ancient weapons yet and my COE is pretty low roll. I would have done GR68 except I got the Mallet Lord boss and he was instagibbing me with his adds.

Same one I used last time Bells was the season build, and I finished that doing GRs somewhere in the 80s with Conqueror complete - I don't play that hard.

Oh, right. Where would I find that?

I did manage the GR70 in about 9 minutes I think, so I have room to progress a little, but I got instagibbed once so it wasn't as easy as I'd like.

I searched for my b.net tag and it pulled up. I would drop sixth sense/harmony for NDE, depending on what your secondary res looks like.

I'm a rat necro but I don't think that's that unusual. I can get instagibbed in t13 if I get unlucky but I can finish grift 80 without fishing.

Is there any way to see my gear/etc online if I play on a console?

Also, when you guys are talking about entering a GR and seeing low density or whatever, and then quitting... Do you lose a GR key for doing that? Or is there a grace period where you can reload a new GR layout without losing the key?

I was hoping that the cursed chest conquest would be pretty easy as a bell monk. I was only able to kill 250 on Cursed Peat, though. Is that something that you really need multiple players to handle?

I was hoping to avoid doing eight set dungeons; already done The Thrill and the solo GR 75.

Remember it only has to be done on TX, shift your skills around a bit to never run out of spirit, maybe some extra attack speed. It's easily done solo so long as you're killing everything in one hit.

Season Journey requires 1

A Conquest requires 8

Doing all 4 for a class unlocks a dumb pendant thing on your back

Doing all 4 for all 8 (non necro) characters unlocks new wings

The rewards are dumb, just do em for fun if you want to.

Unless you're a DH, probably. I did manage over 330 as Bell Monk with my rift setup; I might be able to do 350 in the set dungeon setup. I'd prefer to find a DH though.

I'm having just the worst RNG this season. GR700 and I'm still only wearing 3 ancients, both of my weapons are not gifted, 2 total gifts (both burned on my now dead first character) and I finally got my first primal of the season.



I'm not surprised by dumb and bad primals but overall I'm just not getting poo poo done despite the time put in. I will say though, mindless T13 rift farming with a kitted out bell monk and a maxed BotH is satisfying. *BWONG* [explosion of yellow] [zips into the sunset]
