Any reason to get this on PC versus PS5? Got a few friends who might pick this up on PS5, I know cross play works but party/chat management would be easier if I just got in on PS5 as well.

katkillad2 posted:Yea I got one as well and found it pretty mediocre unfortunately. Also gloves is one of the few armor slots that has crit chance and not having crit on a glove sucks. I'm still testing them out but it looks like it's literally for one attack so maybe not as great as I thought, in practice.

I've been in t4 for like 8 hours now and still not wearing anything but my 2h as ancestral. I have high roll aspects for almost every slot saved up but just have yet to find anything with more than 2 good stats on my other slots, whew this is going to take a while

Only if you have something against using a controller and want mouse/kb. I picked it up on PS5 and it's been fantastic.

With crossplay it's just a matter of how you view performance and how your friends communicate. I hear the console versions of the game are perfectly fine save for some networking troubles for some. My friends just get on a discord call so there's no platform barrier at all so ymmv.

PoE is definitely a game for people who enjoy tinkering with complex systems. Diablo is and always has been much more casual/arcade-y in that respect, where you can just pick it up and more or less figure it out on your own. I think if you preferred TQ, you might like Diablo. But also remember that we often view the past through rose-colored fog of nostalgia.

I'm constantly oom and I'm getting super burnt out by the renown grind going into Nightmare and hitting a wall increasing power around lvl53. I fixed mana problems o-kay and am working very hard on fixing the CD portion. There's a node on the paragon board that gives you 10 mana when you stun a close enemy. There's a unique chest that pulls in enemies and stuns them when you teleport. You can stack crackling energy? charge? whatever to try to improve your cooldowns. I've basically taken every single thing to improve it, including paragon board node, aspect that lets it chain, can hit more after teleport, etc. There is also a lucky hit mod that has % chance to restore % of mana. Also generate 12 mana per charge picked up. So.. a lot of stuff going into generating mana. I'm not sure it's the best way to build but it's been working for me. Currently level 72ish.

You can probably play on PC if you wanted, but would have to convince everyone to get discord (no idea how it works on ps5)

Finally into WT4, first dungeon greeted me with the butcher. I also got an ancestral version of that dumb unique with 10k thorns on it. That is a lot of thorns... They should let you strip the level requirement off stuff like D3 so I can run around exploding anything that dare touch me with an alt.

 I've gotten many other helms since this one but I've salvaged/sold most of them. This one with its healing status just can't be beat IMO.

The biggest thing that fixed going from leveling stuff to higher stuff is realizing you probably don’t need 5 points in your basic skill anymore

Man I am on day two of just looking for literally anything sacred with resource regen and reduced mana cost on it and coming up short. Feels bad to not have a single upgrade (in any slot for that matter) for two days while I grind out renown. Ice shard really needs this!

I got horse armor from the world boss, and it honestly was a pleasant surprise. I haven't seen anyone else running around with it on and I feel special. 10/10 GOTY

I've been getting so many crashes today. Dunno if it's just more common later in the game but it loving sucks to lose nightmare dungeon progress 3 times in a row from crashes.

I got a unique item that says my Rain of Arrows is always imbued with all imbuements. Unfortunately, the rain of arrows triggered by one of my legendary effects is not proper name Rain of Arrows, so there's no synergy unless I switch to bows.

When I got my first unique this morning, it felt like it was a long time coming. I was level 62 when it finally dropped. Funny thing is now the game's throwing unique legendary items at me.

What makes players drop an ear? I wandered into the PvP zone, ganked a necro, then went to the shrine to cash in the mass amount of shards he was hoarding and we engaged in a protracted duel where we could get eachother under 10% but not quite nab the kill, until I finally killed him when I had 1 potion left. He dropped his ear and now it is my trophy. There should be more people in the pvp zones, it's largely pve.

I'm constantly oom and I'm getting super burnt out by the renown grind going into Nightmare and hitting a wall increasing power around lvl53. I switched from chain lightning to pure arc slash and it's a night and day difference. Trying to juggle damage, survivability, cooldowns, and mana as CL just wasn't working.

I've got a question for/about sorcerers: is there any reason to invest in a Core AND a Mastery skill, like chain lightning AND ball lightning or fireball AND meteor? As far as I can tell, both those categories consist of attacks which cost mana, have no cooldown, and stack with themselves, so they're competing with each other except in the sense of having different AoE shapes and secondary effects. Also, given the capstone passives all being themed around some elemental mechanic or other, is there a reason to use multiple elements except maybe in the sense of branching out with which defensive cooldown you're running?

Memnaelar posted:Quoted for truth. I replayed D3 for an hour just prior to the prerelease of D4 to see if the story was as bad as I actually remembered it being. It is all SO overdone, and not in a good way. When Deckard pops up and says "SKELETON KING!" (yes, that's his name - Skeleton King), I was reminded that yeah, this story was terribly cheesy. And, of course, everything involving Adria is so overblown "curse your inevitable betrayal" that it's almost laughable. Yeah, the loving skeleton king was pretty much the moment I realised that the writing in D3 wouldn't be good for much of anything. The guy literally closes out his monologue with a melodramatic evil laugh. D4 by contrast works a lot better. It does feel a bit dreary at times, but then again this is a functionally post-apocalyptic world. Overall they do manage to settle on a tone and generally nail it a lot better. e: whoops I should've refreshed the tab

From what I understand you need to finish the acts to start ‘end game’ stuff and advancing world tiers. So should I just make a beeline and finish the acts and forget about exploring stuff like dungeons until later? Edit: I know the thread moved fast so I’ll ask again. Is there a PlayStation clan?

At a minimum, rushing the first 3 acts lets you get to mounts asap which makes everything else much nicer. I'm in act 5 collecting lilith statues before I finish campaign and activate pvp zones/etc and it's so much easier w/the mount.

Whew, just beat the campaign and then I got disconnected for the second time today. Oh well I guess I should take a break anyways. I was confident this game would be terrible leading up to the betas; then I was kinda intrigued but still pessimistic. That continued for the first ~30 levels or so, but I gotta say the tail end of the campaign and getting 40+ and really starting to piece together even just some basic Aspects... The game seems very promising to be actually good and have a lot more diversity than I've been thinking. And all along the music was good. Story was enjoyable. Even the in-engine cinematics impressed me, whereas they seemed cheap and underbaked in D3. Genuinely impressed with Blizzard on this one.
