Me and a buddy got kicked and updated + requeued, and despite the time going up on the login and taking a long time both on the login and game find load, we've slowly gotten back in. I don't think anything is "broken" as much as "cripplingly slow."

if you're in line to play diablo STAY IN LINE

Chain lightning sorc is level 51 and T3. I was shocked and how quick the jump from high 40s was; I spent almost no time in T2. In future runes Is probably jump closer to 45, upgrades slow way down around there in T1 and T2.

Sacred items are cool. Dungeons are harder but I like the prospect of big upgrades being randomly possible.

kinda wishing there was an easy speed farming activity, feels like lost progression is about hard small fights and maybe literally waiting out cooldowns between them?

I switched from chain lightning to arc lash when I got to 50 and I've found it much better fwiw

So I was on my merry horseback to hit up another profane attribute shrine in some forgotten part of the desert, when a gang of highway skeletons set up roadblock in the most narrow part of the canyon dead set on taking my gold. As I was taking care of these goobers, a Helltide rolled in across the sky, the ground turned crimson and it started raining blood...

Am I missing something about Altars to Lilith?

You can have up to 10 characters, and each have their own altars to unlock with stat bonuses that stack with the other characters.

Won't that become a balance mess in the long run?

I thought I saw a video that said they unlock on all characters once completed on one, so you just need to do it once

That was my first impression too, but I'm on my second character now and unlocking a fresh set of altars.

Quick edit. It could be that the bonuses don't stack with identical unlocks though. Maybe they're just there for the region renown.

you can re-collect the altars to get renown, but all the actual character bonuses are permanent and account wide. so recollecting the altars is not necessary.

Altars & campaign completion are confirmed to carry over. I hope, but doubt, that map completion will carry over.

Started with a Barb. I will admit it, I miss exploding imps by hitting them really hard but it is fun so far. Though, between the whole Walking Armory gimmick and the skill tree, I am probably going to go broke through resets :shepicide:

I can attest that unstable currents is a lot of fun though its on a minute long cooldown or so. On the bigger bosses though it feels like a lot of running around waiting for it to come back. I used it for acts 1 and 2, tried fire and ice for a while in act 3, then came back to lightning for 4+ so far.

I just got it on my sorc (arc, chain lightning, a bunch of defensive stuff) and it’s very fun when it’s actually up. Chain lightning is cool too but I run out of mana so fast even with the passive that makes it regen mana when it bounces off you
