Deformed Church posted:That's cool and all but the vast majority of deaths I have had are "oh the game that normally runs smoothly at 60fps and below 150ms just held up for several seconds and I loaded back in dead" or "oh cool a pack spawned beneath my feet, triggered by ??? (probably something in the effect maelstrom) and nuked me instantly". I have not felt in control of the vast majority of my deaths so far. If you're only 52 you have probably been building for all damage and neglected to put together some defense synergy. Or you still need to upgrade to sacred items. Bosses spawn sometimes if you kill a small pack or open a chest or use an interactable item. If you're getting instantly killed by non-windup attacks at 52 then you're standing in death effects or have zero +life and zero +damage reduction. Playing hardcore is always miserable online unless you accept you'll die to lag eventually

Dying to an off screen one shot or a lag spike & losing 50% progress, knowing you don't have enough time to make it up? That sucks and is really discouraging. There shouldn't be a mechanic in a modern game where 20-30 minutes gets you nothing. lmfao. The Worlds Biggest Crybaby.

I think they could have made the campaign more challenging so some of these survivability issues get worked out before wt3

Neither one of us are new to the series (we played D2 when we were dating and put 1000s of hours into D3 from the moment it hit consoles), but the systems in place just seem really overwhelming. I'm a Barb and she's a Sorc if that makes any sort of difference. just read the words on the screen. wtf is wrong with you all.

guuuuuys the vidoe game doesnt just shower me with loot every second for standing still and doing nothing. also its lowkey toxic for it to want me to think for 10 seconds about my skills and gear. they should make it more comfy like my favorite game, final fantasy 14

There is something about the game where I cannot play it in blocks bigger than 30-60 minutes. I am not sure if it is because I have not found a piece of loot that is an upgrade since level 51 (I am now 57), yet you need to spend 15 minutes of every hour going through each piece of loot you find checking for the few key stats like vulnerability damage. I never really had that problem with D2 or D3. I find I kill stuff fast enough, so maybe I just got good sacred drops early.

In every arpg eventually the rate of loot upgrades slows down. There is no way around this without mudflation which would destroy the game

euphronius posted:The reward you get at the minimum is fun playing the game This. I'm at the point where I grind out incremental upgrades to my gear to do harder dungeons. If you don't like doing that then yeah the game "doesn't have anything past the campaign". Which is reasonable! If I think about it too hard, this kind of game is insanely stupid! But I'm having fun so I'm gonna keep doing it for a while.

Since I am not playing I may as well post. I am actually really enjoying Diablo 4 (when I can actually play it) but I'm not yet sure if like a year from now I will prefer it over just starting up D2R (D3 never really clicked for me).

Can the latest overflow clan add me to the ranks (when the servers unshit themselves)? Tried reaching out to Marchidian yesterday but I guess I don't know how D4 whispers work because the /whisper seems to have done nothing. My tag is shrike#11806. I assumed this is the latest overflow: "Name: Awful Bone Economy Lodge (ABEL) Whisper: Marchidian#2852"

You can just apply to the clan if you can find it in the finder.

I've been waiting for someone to send me a DM in the bnet app because there's a ton of applications for the very last spot and I wanna make sure a goon gets it. I think it bugs out a bit when there's too many applications, so I'll see if I can fix it manually if I can get into the game atm. Edit: I sure can't. Well. When it clears up then.

There shouldn't be a mechanic in a modern game where 20-30 minutes gets you nothing. To be a little more pedagogic than the imp squad: I think you're just not powerful enough for the helltides yet, and that's ok. Things should be gated to give a sense of accomplishment when you can deal with them. Just do other poo poo, work on survivability, try again later.

So if I'm understanding the damage bucket stuff correctly, then damage stats that go in the additive bucket are effectively interchangeable, right (as long as they're relevant to your build)? In other words if I slow enemies, then +30% damage to slow enemies has exactly the same effect as +30% damage to crowd controlled enemies? Same for say, +20% core skills damage and +20% physical damage, (assuming my core skill does physical damage, of course)?

The spec is important. You can't gently caress your self since you can refund everything. Pick a class look up a simple guide. Kill poo poo.
