What's a better build? LotD, spam Corpsplosion for duration, TP and chill in town for 2 minutes, rinse, repeat?

That explains a lot - I don’t have holy point yet (despite spending like 1500 shards on quivers) and everything explodes but so do I, even with all the mitigation skills up.

I was struggling for a good 2 hours trying to do the Might of the Earth set dungeon. I just could not get the hang of it no matter what video I watched or build I used I just could not for the life of me do it. Then I switched over to the Immortal King's Call set dungeon. Mastered it 1st shot. While I am sure I am going to hit a brick wall trying to GR push with Might of the Earth, I've been having fun with it so far.

Like, I think the first time most people Master it, it's totally by accident. "Oh, I Mastered it? Uh... OK, sure!"

What's the best way to get Swamp Land Waders for general re-rolling on other character purposes? My plan was to roll a quick Witch Doctor (no duh) and just keep gambling blood shards that I earned on my main (a Necro this season), but now I'm reading that they only drop for level 50 characters. Would they not be a blood shard gamble until level 50? This was much easier when my initial character was a Witch Doctor last season, dagummit!

Can Kadala give you Ancient or Primal stuff? What about upgrading rares and reforging legendaries?

It should be noted that if you gamble for the pants at level 51, they will be lower ilevel than 70. Reforging a, for instance, level 60 pair of Waders will NOT make them level 70; they stay the same level. I'm assuming you want to wear them for a LoD setup since the power does you no good cubed in which case your best bet is to get a power level to 70 on a WD and burn shards and/or upgrade rares in the cube until you get a pair and then you can reroll that until it's ancient. I know people complain about itemization in D3 a lot, but SLW is one of the few instances that really does annoy me as it's a clear best in slot for most LoD setups and only drops for a single class.

Snacksmaniac posted:Why is it bis? Is it the elemental prefixes it can get that I assume no other pants can.? Yep its the only pants that has +elemental damage. And usually there's not really any good legendary pants anyway so it often is the best by default.

They should just give +elemental damage to the craftable legendary pants so that part of making an LoD character every season didn't involve upgrading rares on a level 1 WD.

After playing Spinnyboi Demon Hunter, WhirlRend Barbarian feels sooooo slow.IcePhoenix posted:Can Kadala give you Ancient or Primal stuff? What about upgrading rares and reforging legendaries? Upgrading absolutly. I had a Yellow Mighty Belt drop on my DH yesterday, took it to the Cube to upgrade it to a Legendary, and got a Primal Undisputed Champion from it. I also got a Primal Hunter's Wrath in the very next GR I ran.  my luck for the rest of the Season.

Has anyone ever gotten a set piece they didn't already find four times using the convert set item recipe? I'm starting to think they just put it in there to clear out people's collections of Forgotten Souls. t t

Heck, I've even managed to convert a dupe into an Ancient version of something I already had equipped, so I'd equip the Ancient version, and convert the one I was wearing. It does feel like it has a very low chance to become something you're missing, though.

Did my GR70 solo at lunch today since I felt I had enough damage to get through it. Died a few times and took like 11 minutes but I got it. Free Primal was.... a Fulminator Time to start leveling gems.

I've only seen two primals so far, the freebie was the GoD Boots and the second was the immortal templar relic (lame but thank god it wasn't the all skills one so I'll count that blessing at least), and I've been spending all my shards on 1h weapons in a desperate attempt to at least get an ancient crossbow so I can do more damage. I've got plenty of crafting mats from some vault runs so I guess I'll start throwing all the rares she gives me into the cube as well.

IcePhoenix posted:Agree completely. My weapons are poo poo (Dawn and Fortress at like 2500 dps each) but I'm still up to GR 90 cleared with like half the timer left. Yes I had to switch from Vallas to Fortress (luckily I have ancients for both, as well as my Dawn) when we started pushing to GR100 for the survivability. When we went back down to GR90 speed clears I just kept using it. Switching to an Oculus ring in the cube helped balance out the needed higher damage output.

I'm gonna try to push to 100 tonight I think just to see if I can actually pull it off with these weapons. I cleared 96 today with just under 5 minutes remaining but lost a lot of time to three or four deaths + having to run back to town to repair because I forgot to do it before I started so if I can clean it up I can probably clear 97 fast enough to skip to 99. Being able to do that with this gear is pretty disgusting, tbqh. https://us.diablo3.com/en/profile/IcePhoenix-1374/hero/123064569

drat, I started a DH because I wanted to use the new set but only just now realized that the season reward is actually the Shadow set, not the new set. I definitely have the most fun with massive-AOE damage builds (my favorite classes I've played so far were Whirlrend Barb and WoL monk) so I'm really not looking forward to using Impale once I get the season set. I guess I'll just deal with it and hope that I can relatively easily farm the new DH set?

Was it moved speed you rolled off your boots? I think that would still be better than strafe.

(besides the season set of course) Karlei's point dagger asap from upgrading rare daggers in cube, there's only 2 options so that's easy. Holy point shot quiver is another big boost, I suggest spending all blood shards into gambling quivers. Those two plus the set gets you to t13+ comfortably.

I meant just about anything would have been better than keeping the Strafe damage. Move Speed was the only thing that was technically "worse" if you're too lazy to adjust paragon move speed when you swap gear.

I'm always strafing so I'll take the chip damage over the regen (worthless) or move speed (pointless) I guess  Really though like you said, they're all bad so it really doesn't matter.

Yes but in that specific situation my movespeed paragon points won't be at 50/50 anymore and that's unacceptable.

Is there an optimal strategy to choosing which property to reroll on a piece of gear that doesn't have the ideal properties? I spent upto Paragon 600 rerolling the worst property to get something more useful for my build. My friend playing the same build, GoF DH, and was rerolling to get the most desirable stat for that item, and ended up at double my damage despite being 50 Paragon level lower. He was a glass cannon, but the difference seemed huge to me. Now at P750 I'm only about 20% behind in damage, and way tankier. I'm happy with my build, but just wondering if there is a good rule of thumb for choosing what properties to reroll.
