Aphrodite posted:Can they not just hang in the entrance? They can but it will make the dungeon harder. This is for high level keys, which for my character is in the high 50s and low 60s. My buddy is leveling in Eridu while I do nightmare dungeons and I just bring him in when I get to the boss so he can get free glyph exp.

Someone earlier was having a similar issue to me in that I'm stuck doing tier 1 nms. I get lots of them to drop from whispers and doing nms, and I can't craft them yet. I'm only 58 so maybe that changes when I hit 60?

Man it seems like they've changed something, ruins of eridu no longer spawning in all the elites like it used to? Why in God's name would they remove the only spot in the game with decent monster density rather than boost it elsewhere? Insane. So what's the next spot to farm for xp/items?

Deformed Church posted:Cool, thanks, I'll stick with tier 1 for a bit, at least. Feels a bit piss easy though! Admittedly I haven't hit any major bosses yet, but I'm just jamming my face directly into elite packs with zero thought about positioning, target priority, kiting, defensive skill use, how much health I've got, or really anything except whether it's right click time or left click time. WT1 is optimal for, like, levelling quickly or the time-reward balance so any conventional wisdom would absolutely say stay there, but I'm glad I did the campaign on WT2 (except I did turn it down for Duriel, because in time-honoured tradition he's a jerk) for more or less this reason: you do have to think about moment to moment combat more often levelling on WT2 (since you're not going to outgear major challenges at that point) and I'm one of the people that's fun for. or at the very least I felt like it was teaching me good habits for higher difficulties: did the WT2 capstone and my first Helltide this morning and it was fun as hell even though I was mad undergeared, but I know it'd have been miserable if I didn't know the sort of stuff WT1 lets you not think about

not sure why they are so upset with the high density dungeon spam, I guess they really want people to be engaging with nightmare dungeons and overworld stuff

Levels 66 and I've even been sitting on a staff with several hundred extra DPS waiting for the right aspect to drop so it's even "behind" the curve so to speak yet mobs explode in seconds. I haven't even gone down the vulnerability paragon tree yet lol.

Just had a special window pop up at my stash that said "missed equipment" and gave me horse armor. I have no idea where it came from, but it's nice knowing there's some sort of mechanic in place in case you miss certain drops.

There's a limited time cow level in Diablo 3 so it's probably similar.

What do you mean "limited time"? The cow level in D3 can be accessed at any time either through a randomly spawning portal or by throwing a bardiche into the cube.

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:Someone datamined triggers for a secret quest that references "the Oxen gods," a portal, and a way to gain their blessing with an offering that may be related to it. Intricate Metal Fragment is literally a nephalem obelisk from Diablo 3. It’s a two part quest, the first part is finding the location to use the key. Once the key is used, you’ll find a location to somehow combine the tome and the worn straps, possibly on pedestals. Doing this will open a red portal to a cow level. The likely location is in a cellar near caldeum due to its inclusion in the D3 story and the use of the obelisk. (This is my analyst from reading over the datamine info).

Speaking of weird overworld stuff, what's with the statues with a small circle in front? If you stay in the circle, you get a debuff that says something like "you are being watched". Emote stuff or something more interesting?

Yea the thing you can interact with basically tells you what Emote to perform in order to gain a short buff. They're basically Shrines that are annoying to activate.

If you read the tiles on the statues, they will give you a hint to use an emote. They do various things. So far, the ones I have seen are: - Spawns a ghost wolf that follows you around. - Spawns a dozen health potions. - Gives you stealth and a 20% damage bonus on your next attack. - Spawns a bunch of (very low) gold drops. - Grants you a barrier.

I thought people were exaggerating about the blighted corpse explosion upgrade but I just got my necro leveled up last night and holy poo poo that is no exaggeration. It's a legit smokescreen, I can't believe nobody said anything about that in testing or if they did they didn't think it was bad enough to fix.

Easy solution is don't use plague corpse cause it's dumb and bad. Lame rear end ground dots, go play rogue. Big explosion or go home.
