And on the subject of overworld stuff, it feels like you outgrow Tree of Whispers awards pretty easily. Like I'm not even sure you get Ancestral items out of those boxes? If you do it's gotta be rare.

The dungeon ones are funny because you get like 18 obols if you manage to mastery them. Wow cool thank u.

How do you cast HotA and have it NOT autotarget the nearest thing? I just realized I’ve been using it wrong for a week because I can’t aim it away from enemies.

So the thing u need to run nightmare dungeons is just a random drop in wt3? Ive spent several hours now in this wt and nothin. And Ive killed plenty of helltide mobs along the way, something im missing?

I think you need to do a certain number of whisper runs at the tree. I think 10?

Is anyone actually able to play and not get horrible rubberbanding and lag from the apparent DDoS stuff?

I’ve just been doing some world quests and nearly dying to normal monsters in WT4 because half the time my skills won’t even cast for like 5 seconds. I can’t imagine trying to do NM dungeons with this.

Whispers are probably the best way to get sigils but you definitely don't need to do 10. It's just a random drop like everything else.

The game has too many aspects, unique items, and skills that are just clearly not competitive and will need to see way more than a smattering of 10% buffs to get people to re-evaluate their options. I'm glad they didn't wait until Season 1 to do at least do some balancing, but I really need to see something more exciting for the S1 patch notes.

I'm glad for the much needed teleport to dungeon and EXP fixes.

If you have a higher level character you can just craft them and throw them in your stash

Or just group with a guild mate and have them craft one for you I guess

Well Ive spent abou 4 hrs in wt3 granted only done 2 tree runs but nothin. If nightmare dungeons are the best way to lvl in wt3 then this drop rate sux.

You will never run out of them once you get one because the drop rate for them is higher in NM dungeons

Just have someone open one for you. I’ll jump online and do it now if you need

They open up once you’ve done a couple of ‘‘em on your own. I can craft on my lvl 51 wiz

You can craft sigils as soon as you clear a tier 3, which on your own is totally random when it could happen since you need one to drop.

So once one drops it gets easy to craft more, but who knows how long it could take fot one to drop? Poopy.

You can craft them at the Occultist, and the Whispers tree should drop a guaranteed one

I have just had two cellars glitch out on me in that somehow I ended up creating a number of passive, invulnerable enemies in them that still counted as being alive and therefore kept the place from counting as cleared. :saddowns:

I asked the same question about a week ago or so, and for me it looked like the tree started dropping the nightmare sigils after I unlocked a glyph spot in the paragon board.

RN you basically always go vuln. I think the only thing you’d probably pick over it is cool down reduction.

Edit: just saw that you’re barb so idk that’s a lot of str and as far as dmg buckets go I think main stat is above vuln?

Simply a higher mob density in the overworld would do a lot to improve it. You could walk in a random direction and mindlessly blow things up. It's a whole lot of empty space atm. No fun having to get on the horse all the time to look for packs.

Let mounts jump up and down cliffs too. They need to get over their ~realism~ in a world where you murder 100 bears to avenge 1 sick bear. Hell, make horses balance across climbing ropes and slide under walls
