(mind, i'm talking first two or so hours of the game)

Snacksmaniac posted:Area over raw (10% damage)? That's two votes for that so that's my winner. My gut told me raw damage but I guess I'm wrong! Area damage is super effective for some (under the engine) reasons and you should have it in almost all of the builds. It's what explodes half of the screen in instant while you're just whirlwinding normally.

Let's assume you have 20 enemies, a really dense pack, and you have 100% AD. You hit them all for 1 damage and trigger your area damage 4 times. (20*20%). Each one hits the 19 surrounding enemies once so you do 4*19 = 96. Plus the 20x1 damage you got from hitting them with your base attack and you're doing 116x your single target damage.

exquisite tea posted:Vyr's is one of those sets where you need 13 distinct legendaries + all corresponding cube effects for it to really work, and even then, it somehow manages to have even less flexibility than Tal/Vyr Archon. It's a fine second character option, but rough going as a first. Step 2: gamble swami @ 30 on an alt, cube it Step 3: gamble fazulas @ 33? (this might be 37, I don't remember) on an alt (and wear it) Step 4: stack as much CDR as humanly possible It's like 3k-5k blood shards to get those things, and only the first two are really important and ~2k total. Arguably only swami is if you are lazy and it's ~1k shards. Vyrs owns as a starting build. You become a literal immortal who slays t13. It's not as good as some other classes, but I'd take it over most other wizard sets. It just has the awkward 2nd character gamble requirement.

It's a skill that no one has used since when you had to level up rift keys and fun having summons as a crusader. I suppose the actual game play wasn't great. But the combo of gear was neat.

I don’t know how live the regular diablo discord is, but the nintengoon one has people on and off (by dint of there being literally no way in game to communicate with people). Can’t crossplay with PC but if the goal is “chat with other people solo farming” then there might be people in it occasionally

I haven't played for a year, since condemn became King. That was fun, but not really worth doing twice, though it was the best way to speed level gems solo by a mile. Looking at Rhyyker's class tiers reveals very little changed since then until now, so many more S and A tier builds this season. Night and day. They finally did another rebalancing! Only class I haven't really played is witchdoctor, finally he gets a buff. Looking forward to trying Jade. Likely among my last D3 seasons. At least Arachyr is the free set!

Going witch doctor myself this season, and the arachyr set is pretty lovely in survivability once it becomes an important quality in the torments. You need to roll blood shards on bracers until you get the one that gives you 6% dmg reduction per stack of soul harvest, and mix it with the ritual dagger that lets you get 10 soul harvest stacks. Most of the endgame builds use this combo for the intelligence bonus of soul harvest+damage reduction+whatever rune effect you want. +30% intelligence is nothing to sneeze at. However, combining the 2p arachyr bonus and the zunimassa set 6p makes for a pretty good early build you can slap together, because the 4000% dmg giant spider of the 2p set is a pet, and benefits from the 15000% damage by pets if you hit an enemy with a mana spender. I am running a full zunimassa-firebats build currently. Might transition into jade later. The witch doctor passive that reduces all cooldowns whenever an enemy dies in a radius is so, so amazing. Its like a little in-geom.

Do you like to run homebrew figured-it-out-myself builds, or are you open to some suggestions? You didn't ask for any advice so I don't want to give it, but your post has led me to believe that your character could be significantly improved with a few tweaks.

I went off an icy-veins build because I had a lot of the parts and I was sick and tired of managing the toad to survive with arachyrs. I went with zombie piranhas because of the shorter cooldown and it seems to have a bigger range due to the fish jumping out. Pharohman777 fucked around with this message at 22:54 on Jan 29, 2019 |

Helms are an already stacked item slot before you add in spirit stones. Just about the only reliable way you are going to get a Tzo Kirin if it isn't dropping for you is upgrading yellows. And since you can't get one, you can you'll have no problems wearing a sage helm + either boots or gloves and farming a poo poo ton of dbs until you get it.

Yeah... just upgrade yellow Spirit Stones in the Cube. 1/12 chance, so farm up like 250-300 Deffbreffs and do 'em

Playing my first demon hunter. Was boring the first 20 levels or so, and then a legendary crossbow dropped that adds 100% damage to Strafe, as well as a bunch of other equipment that helps manage my Hatred. I've now spent the last 10 levels just melting everything by walking into a room/large enemy grouup, dropping Sentry Spitfire Turrets and Marked for Death w/Contagion and turning on Strafe  I know it won't last forever but man is it fun.
