Does amount of azurite you get increase further down you go, or is it "20-30 per node" for all eternity?

Yeah, I'm making about 175 per node right now at about depth 70. I think you also get more azerite from nodes where the picture is glowing brighter than normal.

Awesome!

I assume that was a marked encounter node that you had to tunnel to, rather than breaking a wall and surprise harbinger to the face?

I haven't started playing on the league, but it seems when they add a league mechanic that requires you to use a new button and to stand still for a second and then wait to see if the effect did what you wanted it to or make you fiddle with lots of new tiny items the league suffers for it and they forget that 99% of the playerbase likes to kill lots of things and they like to kill lots of things very fast.

Sounds like a fun build. Are you following a guide I can find anywhere? Be a couple days until I can finally start this league and I still don't really know what I am going to go with.

Homebrew. Here's my refined core goal and concept (level 89): https://pastebin.com/qpu49fEn

Combining those skill gems together feels pretty original/synergistic, and I'm pretty confident how it will play out. 4 super sentiels, 9 zombies and 3 spectres beat the hell out of stuff, and they'll be super tanky.

Beyond the staple items in the pastebin, just fill out gear however you want. If you can figure out a way to curse stuff on hit, you can remove the ring - it's just there just to try stuff out. You can also just get a nice rare unset ring, and put a curse in there. On bosses you can manually cast it.

After level 89, just fill out more life nodes.

The delve mines does some goofy poo poo with instance generation. Going into the mine from the mine encampment generates both a new mine instance, and a new mine encampment (both are the same instance, so no loading needed to teleport the player char between the two). And any new delve from an outpost generates an instance connecting the two, plus maybe a few more nodes going beyond that. Going beyond the limits discards the old instance and generates and old one (hope you picked everything up!)

Got back into the game this league. I'd decided ahead of time I was going to run a Toxic Rain Trickster and I accidentally picked the meta build doing so. Well ain't this just gonna be a blast when I go looking for gear to buy later.

It's real good and real fun though. Things just kind of melt from all the stacking DoTs and getting 3% life/mana from everything that dies with a DoT combined with MoM is pretty amazing for survivability. :toot:

It kindof does. It just doesn't react very quickly. If you get too far away it slows to a stop and waits. This means it isn't completely suicidal to dive down a side path.

An uncountable number, to be sure.
It slows down considerably when you're behind it. Now that I'm at depth 100 and with a vague idea of what I'm doing, I'm finding it pretty safe to run into side paths and see what's up.

I used this build last league (it's not updated yet), but it really doesn't matter. Self-cast is fine too, Arc just murders everything on screen (and most things offscreen).

This has been updated for 3.4 now, and when I compared these passives to Mathils that I have been using, I got 10k more dps per totem. For now however I will keep a couple of the life regen and resist nodes as my gear isn't that good.

But not too shabby, I'm at 4k life, 2,5k mana and 65k dps/totem with 2x Moonsorrow and Tabula. When essence worm drops a bit more in price (was 80c last night) I can activate Wrath and end up with 80k dps/totem.

What do people think between BV elementalist and PP arc elementalist? I got myself a nice 10% hp explosion inpulsa yesterday and managed to five link it, so I want to put it to good use. I see that BV is much more popular. It looks like the single target for BV is probably better. I've done the PP build before, and know it is super effective at mapping though.

I also managed to enchant "double strike has a 15% chance to deal double damage to bleeding enemies" on a starkonjas, which seems like it might be a useful and valuable thing. Double strike looks to be a lot less popular this league though.

Edit: Just got a doryani's catalyst drop from atziri too, which I assume would be workable with the BV build. Maybe I should try BV.

like, buying higher tier maps or specific maps cause again there's "hey we're gonna give a random map +5 tiers what you slam in there" and "hey remember how the harbinger league orbs were cool and good??" to address the former and kinda latter respectively

So watching streams and it seems once you have a high enough darkness resistance you should go to the lower level delves and farm currency and fossils because it seems the drop rate may be too high.

Probably going to get nerfed so with enough resists should probably do that. I've been busy so sadly I can't join in it

I was wondering about this and if anyone had done the math on the degen. I'll be leveling a RF guardian with arc totems and was thinking with all the regen if I left RF off and just used totems and pumped resistance it could work.

Are you having fun? Don't worry about how fast other people get to maps/shaper/uber/etc.

GGG posted:

Some feedback that came up over the weekend was that players would like Delve upgrades purchased on one character to be available to all other characters they have in that League. After discussion, we believe this is a reasonable change and will be making it this week. Azurite will also be shared between characters in a league.
