I messed up my dbs somehow. Not sure where. I maxed my BS, cubed my gambled armor, upgraded a rare weapon to legendary, and had 4 left over, insufficient to cube the weapon. Oh well NBD I'm not a speedrunner anyway.

You only get enough DBs to cube one thing, you used those on the armor instead of the weapon.

I made a series of bad investments. Tarantula farm. The bottom fell out of the market.

Ah, I misunderstood the plan. So people are upgrading a 70 weapon in hopes of getting something either better than the targeted armor piece, or something that can be wielded/cubed for their 70 build?

Let's talk about where you're going.
Playing a monk, got Crudest Boots - should I cube it? I don't really know what the best armor power is for Monks.

I’m having a really slow start to my first ever barb. I’m soloing but I’m like 20 and it just feels soooo slow. All my beginner shards got nothing and it doesn’t feel like Last seasons Monk start where one good boot lets you one hit kill enemies into the 30s

They are extremely required for any Inna’s build which are really strong and versatile

Are the powers you extract with Kanai’s Cube account bound as in when the season is over my other characters will then have access to those newly extracted powers, my OCD is telling me I gotta collect them all... but it's probably not worth trying for if they're exclusive to the character that extracted them.

Started a WD this morning because the new darts LON build looks fun, got dagger of darts to cube at lvl 1 and then gambled an ancient carnevil as soon as I hit 70. Not even gonna bother with the season journey just gonna run this straight to gr70 :hist101:

So, uh... did ActiBlizzard screw up Community Chat? Because I've seen nothing in-game from LLJK, and I don't have an option to chat there. Only Clan and Clan Officers.

OK, so the issue was something on my end. Somehow, I had left the channel. I had to open the Communities tab (poo poo+O), and click the red icon on the far right side of LLJK, turning it green. Weird.

Hmm ok I cubed a weapon that lets me earthquake whenever I use a battle cry and I’m suddenly going through this a lot quicker than before

I never had the idea to cube stuff using your first challenge rift breaths before thanks for that

Yes but you could wait until you have armor + weapon in hand to decide what to cube between them. If upgrading the bs didn’t cost 1 db it would be possible to cube both.

LoN is your friend. I skipped taking any hagrid gifts and just gambled one ancient that took me to t4, the second one to t6 and now 4 and just cleared gr45.

Hammer or blessed shield depending which items you get.

They're shared across each game mode so softcore with softcore and hardcore with hardcore but not softcore with hardcore. It's a good feeling to have everything for when you want to play around with things between seasons or on PTR.

All 4 in our group died to an ice bomb a millisecond before the challenge rift guardian died, and the chat log said "challenge rift completed", but we all respawned in town and urshi didnt have the ! on her head and we had to run it a second time.

Other than that i got haedrigs gift in 3.5 hours. It was a pretty good group of goons

Good running, duder. I got incense torch and Riviera dancers at start, was pretty baller early run. Despite having to do the CR twice I was up to rank 2 GR at some point so our start wasn't too bad. I was easily doing tx in 4.5 hours.

At least kadala and cube upgrade is 10% ancient, otherwise it ranges from t1 1% to t6 10%

Good luck though

gambled blood shards after the CR on shoulders and burned them all to get one legendary - the town portal garbage shoulders

then i used the DB to upgrade some rare shoulders into . . . a level 70 pair of the town portal garbage shoulders

I love this thing.

Not only does it look weirdly disgusting, but the effect is so loving good for lovely map layouts & bounties - combine that with severance rune and it's crazy fast getting around.

Mine is only ancient, but it was the very first thing gambled at 70, and has been hugely useful with LON and an ancient weapon. Now I have the Jade set, and the cute cat in a noose mojo that I probably ought to be using, but drat, I'll miss the speed.

Getting that all bosses in 20 minutes conquest would be far easier with that.

I did it last season with a Shadow's Mantle demon hunter who cartwheeled everywhere and threw one knife into Diablo's rear end in a top hat.

Or for any build at all, I'd think.

And it's not even the right mainstat....

Do 2-handed Ancient Weapons count as 2 Ancients for the purpose of LoN builds?

Nice.
I made a pair of Reapers Wraps and decided to make a second pair for the cube to fill out all the spots. Second pair rolled ancient.

So far really digging the LoN Blood Nova play for Necromancer.

This morning I started seasonal with a monk, because I love SWK bells so goddamn much. Couldn't have been luckier, got an Incense Torch daibo with the 'upgrade a lv.70 piece of gear for something to cube'. It even popped out as ancient, but that's no drat good in any circumstance.

:same:

I made a few tweaks for personal preference. I didn't like Scythe of the Cycle and opted for Trag'oul's fang because I felt it was more reliable and better on bosses, when my Bone Armor depleted instantly.

Also the Simularcrum WILL cast Nova when it's not on your bar - but they won't cast blood nova, only the unruned version. With this in mind, I opted to get golemskin breeches and use bone golem for the knockback and stun (to proc Krysbin's triple more reliably as well). I don't think you lose much on the CoE rotation as poison comes up right after physical and the Simulacrum get that bonus.

:shepface:God I fucking love Diablo 3 gold, it even paid for this shitty title:shepface:

Did they nerf using Unity with an unkillable hireling to get a perma 50% damage reduction? I just swapped from that to a RoRG and I really don't feel any squishier at all so I'm wondering if it was actually working.

Also, I've farmed quite a few normal t13 rifts and t60ish Grifts and been burning blood shards on amulets and still haven't gotten a Wisdom of Kalan, this is bullshit. I've gotten four Tasker and Theo's, which took me ages to find when I was playing a pet build a few seasons ago.

That's really weird then. I even tried equipping it and also cubing it while my enchantress was wearing one because it didn't seem to do anything.

E: Complaining about not getting a WoK worked, just got one like two rifts later. Hopefully this will be a decent enough combo of damage and survivability to get gr70.
E E: And a second WoK the next rift... yay RNG
