I hate the poe tree but the point made was just that apparently nothing changes post-30, and a mini poe tree seems significant enough even if it's just the D3 paragon+jewel system in new clothes.

I mean you can be reductive and just say it's more "number go up" but the amount of post-campaign content at launch is pretty solid. I'm enjoying all the stuff that opened up at wt1 and am looking forward to nightmare dungeons and helltides in wt3 soon!

Anyone got a druid build they’re following? I have been doing companions, but I’m struggling with the stronghold for the level 15 class quest

Started with this one then migrated to this build after 30 or so since the first one stops at 25. Been smooth sailing on T1 at least and it's a lot of fun to boot.

Druid companion build whips rear end but you have to get into the 20s to get enough skill points for it to really take off. Once you have all the pets and their passive 30% buff with landslide maxed out you are unstoppable.

It’s pretty obvious the design to have people play in groups. You get better xp and drops in a group.

Lol what on earth is this. I'm guessing each square upgrades your damage or immunities by like 1 or 2 points so you still feel like you're progressing over your 600 hours of gaming?

Does one of the massive skill tree upgrades increase my running speed by 2%, perhaps

...must attack and fall upon them with a gallant bearing and a fearless heart, and, if possible, vanquish and destroy them, even though they have for armour the shells of a certain fish, that they say are harder than diamonds, and in place of swords wield trenchant blades of Damascus steel...

Are there any rogue builds that use both the bow and melee weapons? I see there are passives and paragon nodes to support mixing marksman and cutthroat skills, but I feel that kind of thing usually doesn’t work out in arpgs.

Your character automatically swaps to the relevant weapon when you use an ability, with no cooldown or delay, so if an arpg is going to make that style viable, this is the one.

I'm enjoying Druid but I feel like their boon system is really underbaked. You get enough spirit offerings to max all of them out by the time you hit like level 20 or 25 or w/e and the benefits are pretty boring. Kind of a shame.

Yeah I had enough orbs or whatever to unlock everything as soon as I finished the quest. I was kind of surprised to hear that's all there is to it.

No doubt don’t sleep on this there are 10 whole rear end skill points among the rewards iirc. And I think those do transfer over to subsequent characters on the same realm.

Yeah. You need to be careful not to pick equipment upgrades just because they offer bigger numbers. Losing an aspect can hurt your damage output a lot.

The Cathedral of Light / Capstone Dungeon is bugged. Boss summons some adds, despawns, and never comes back. May be limited to OR more likely to occur with Necros that have minions out.

Happened twice to me before I wised up and google'd it.

While respeccing is easy, I've prioritized my gear for a summoner build. Also, I kinda need to learn a whole new playstyle.

I'm having a good time with my shadow Necro build (decompose + blight + decrepify + minions). Bone magic was really good too but I've done the bone spear thing multiple times in D2 and wanted to mix it up.

I'm really loving this game overall. It has smooth gameplay and good QoL stuff, but has the very grim and demonic vibe and aesthetic of Diablo 1.
