yeah a few more things right by the spooky tree would make it perfect, or just let us have guild halls we could customize and have vendors / training dummies, etc.

Level 64 and things are going well. I went with a firewall sorceress because some other goon in this thread was raving about them despite them not being "top tier" and I'm going to have to agree. Damage on bosses is a little light but blowing up groups is the most satisfying experience I've had in this game and my survivability is higher than any of my friends and it's not even close. Still just getting settled in to this game, sifting through trash in the hopes of finding an item with that one extra stat I can actually use and levelling my glyphs. One question I still haven't been able to answer for myself is, what exactly is the purpose of the tree outside of getting your very first nightmare sigil? As far as the gear it rewards it seems just exclusively running nightmare dungeons is more adequate. Aside from just being a bonus for running Helltide events, it doesn't seem to have much purpose. Which is fine, but am I missing something, does it offer anything unique that other game modes don't? I've always felt like they shouldn't have sigils drop from dungeons and that would give the tree true purpose, but then I start thinking I'm putting purpose ahead of fun for others. But objectives are fun for me, so I'm conflicted. I think I'd like to be forced to run tree events to farm keys, but I imagine this is not true for everyone.

The tree gives you pretty good gear until you get into WT3. After that it's a bonus for stuff you were going to do anyway IMHO. Like I run tree dungeons that have a new aspect still at 66 even if I'm definitely not getting any upgrades from tree gear at this point.

i am really tired of having all 3 shouts + berserk on my ww barb. really want to take one shout off an have a fourth skill but i can't choose. i have been considering the chains thing since i read that is significantly better after being patched, but the more i think about it, it's not that useful to the build. ones i'm thinking about: jump, kick, chains, iron skin. does anyone have an opinion on this? top priorities on the build are shout cooldown reduction and fury generation. damage is great and survivability is acceptable at lvl 66 in wt4. honestly i have almost 100% uptime on shouts with the glyph and chieftain aspect. i could use more fury only because i am using the capstone skill that makes core skills cost twice as much for double damage.

I have been running 3 shouts, Rend, Steel Grasp and Stomp with the Paragon boards that gives you fixed 10% on kill tog get 1s cooldown reduction on non ulti skills. It's good, especially if you go hard on the bleed>stun synergies. I've only been using it since Steel Grasp's fix though I can run tier 25 Nightmare Dungeons on a lvl62 character without too much risk (even if I have to drink a ton of pots agains bs poison stacking enemies like in Blind Burrows).

if you drop down to 1 or 2 shouts only, you’d probably be better off changing the bold chieftain aspect to the one that gives you 6 fury/sec while berserking. not sure if it’d be worth running echoing either for the c/d reduction with only two. maybe if you’re running the unique chest and disembowel still?

I feel like I'm missing something on my WW build. The damage output isn't keeping up with 20s NM dungeons. I've got most of the usual builds and items, and I've tweaked the rolls to focus on crit chance, crit damage, and vuln damage modifiers. My paragon is the usual. My fury is fine once I get going, but the DPS is just... weak (on elites, they take FOREVER). I haven't been using the 'do 100% more damage for twice the fury' because when I find a small pack of critters I feel like I should just go die in a corner. My shouts refesh pretty quick and are almost always on while in packs..

I'm level 70 currently. I'll see if I can get more detailed stat item stuff later when im off work. I'm just wondering if there is one major thing that I'm overlooking.

So wait, potion effects simply disappear when you log out? Regardless of how much is left of their duration? I thought it was bad enough that their timer does not pause while in town and the like, but this is…

I'm a big dummy that only recently put the time in to find a board where I could trigger Exploit's guaranteed Vulnerable effect without the radius increase and boy, it's so good when a build that's been creaking along suddenly gets a second wind. Here we go, janky all-spender Rapid Shot build, it's your time to shine

While I can't necessarily speak for ditching shouts on WW, I've been running my own homebrew no-shouts hota Walking Arsenal build and it's been great so far up to level 80, even with most of my playtime since WT4 being running NM dungeons 20 levels above me. Often play alongside some friends who follow pulverize/tornado wolf/twisting blades meta guides and my character arguably seems to be the strongest, and it's probably the most fun setup I've played in an ARPG. Very active and diverse playstyle. Though I will say that I tried to respec to a grasp-focused build yesterday (replacing leap) and while it absolutely does pull MUCH better than before, I couldn't justify sticking with the ability. It's very dangerous to use and if you pull too many mobs I find you get stuck and not only cannot move, but can't even attack until you dodge out. Which is not the best when you're surrounded by enemies who started winding up their swings before you even got out of the pull animation.

I dislike the fact that Steel Grasp will place some mobs behind you if you pull a lot of them. I can't hit them all with Rend and sometimes I get boxed in because they are pulled all around me. Ground Stomp does work well in those cases, but I have to keep it around to be safe.
