Was finishing up the last bounty in a set last night and the last mob to kill was a rainbow goblin. Got the wings and the sword from it.

Finally beat D3.

Anything that deals damage over time while you're in it like them or the arcane spinning lasers or Malthiel's little fog patches can kill you super duper fast because they don't stop hurting until you get out of them, I've noticed.

Getting mashed by a Mallet Lord just hurts once.

Those, when I'm not paying attention and end up killing an entire pack of them and sometimes can't move away at all!

Also the big belly-bursters that explode into worms.

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


There is nothing that kills a high solo GR dead more than those tongue licky dudes who do like 1mil+ instant, unavoidable damage whenever there's as few as 4-5 of them grouped together. I hate them more than bees, since at least they're easy to skip.

Ghosts and tongue dudes and to some extent the spear thrower dudes are all potential GR wreckers.

Same, generally. Grab one from the stash that may not even have the right main stat and roll with it. That one you could cube to remove the level req permanently and still keep the socket, though.

I was trying to make the guy not feel bad for getting 15 souls. :v:

Fuckit, primals should be worth 50 souls. You either get a useful item, or you get a free reforge out it. With how rare they are, that seems plenty fair.

Just started pushing 80+ g rifts with my Witch Doctor in Zunimassa's.



The guide I found for Zunimassa's set said to use Firebats and Piranhanado but I paired Piranhanado with Plague of Locusts. Thanks to a belt that decreases movement speed of enemies by 80% when they got locusts on them, makes it really easy to crowd control.

And by crowd control I mean run around in circles spamming locusts, spirit walk, pirahnado and soul harvest.

gently caress this game, as ever, for throwing goblin packs & shrines at me when I'm either leveling fresh for the season or running a fresh alt through rifts, but soon as I'm in speed t13 farming gear, I get nothing but sterile, boring rifts most often in that awful, spaced out shrouded moors tileset.

I really loving hate the shrouded moors tileset.

Nothing is worse than the keeps basement. It grinds my N6M4 to a halt having to wait for sentry cooldowns. The difference between a favorable map like pandamonium and the keeps is easily >5 minutes clearance time at GR100.
