The trouble is that it doesn't feel like glyph xp went up because character level xp comes much faster and there are worthwhile things to do that give you character xp but no glyph xp. It was obvious this would happen when they said time to 100 would drop by 40% and glyph xp went up by (iirc) 19%, but the fact that there's now a point to doing whispers and Helltides right through the endgame makes it feel even worse

Superterranean posted:does the Umbral aspect drop for rogues like, at all? I've put every single obol into rings and haven't seen one yet. feels bad. iirc rogues have the highest odds of having it drop on a ring and i almost contemplated levelling a rogue just to give me that 2% extra chance bc gently caress me i have struggled to find one as a druid The Little Kielbasa posted:I would be more into d4 if they reduced the glyph xp requirements substantially. Or at least made glyph (and vampire power) levels account-wide. I can't really explain why, but my brain loves grinding for loot. But grinding for the glyph xp bar just doesn't release the happy chemicals. i cant explain why but for whatever reason im the same way. im doing pretty good for gear at level 80 but even though i have at least 3 main stats near max on all my gear i still get a giddy little rush when i find something that just edges an old piece out but ive barely touched nmds by comparison to last season. i made it to 92 and 3 fully levelled glyphs and 3 more to 15 last season but i can only really be bothered running nmds back to back when im waiting on a new helltide. the vamp zones and uber bosses are just so good i dont want to even bother with nmds, i dont even have my first glyph to 15 yet Jezza of OZPOS fucked around with this message at 17:25 on Oct 27, 2023 |

Paragon boards are where you really start to define your character though? Anyways. Finally got a weapon to put Alpha on and I love my werewolf buddies. Now I need to find another of that aspect for when this weapon devalues. Goddamn are nightmare dungeons so slow, but I need that glyph XP. I basically just want to be in vamptide the whole time.

I suppose glpyh exp is faster in a roundabout way in that you level up faster so you can do higher level dungeons sooner, so you can get more glpyh exp. This is borderline copium of course but that's how I saw it.

they need to inject more seasonal content into NMDs to make them more interesting going forward. like more actual side areas and season themed events. running into a malignant mob or finding a vamper coffin every once in a while just doesn't cut it

I'm telling myself I should start doing a NMD after I finish getting the Whisper objectives in the vamptide zones so I do something "more gainful" while I wait for the vamptide zone to change.

maybe its just bc im playing a potentially op build but im still doing fine, every now and again i do a really high level dungeon to test myself out and i can comfortably do upto nmd 50 before it gets frustrating, targeting rare paragon nodes and simply slotting lvl 1 glyphs for whatever bonuses i can get doesnt feel bad at all. i might even try uber lillith eventually but i imagine theres a hard wall ahead of me if i dont grind at least a few glyphs up

I can't really explain why, but my brain loves grinding for loot. But grinding for the glyph xp bar just doesn't release the happy chemicals. They absolutely need to let us lvl glyphs in other ways. If it’s a matter of that bubble thing you use to lvl at the end of NMDs not integrating well anywhere else, I’d be okay with banking/gaining glyph xp doing other things but having to finish a NMD to “use” them.

Is the Purveyor of Curiosities aligned with my level in the game? Or does the power level of items you can gamble depend on WT rather than player level? I just stopped by to gamble some obols and realized that while I'm level 42 (and in WT2), all his stuff says it will be level 33, which seems like a waste. I've never paid attention to that before, so I'm not sure when/if he'll let me gamble stuff better than Level 33, although I presume that happens at some point.

It's player level. I believe level 73 is some sort of breakpoint, maybe when you start seeing ancestrals? Someone will know, I'm sure Don't worry about required level, it's always way below the item's actual power level. You can equip ancestrals at 60

So how hard is Uber Lilith and Duriel really. Just trying to get a feel before I waste mats. I feel like with the new vamp powers and tweaks that the power creep is much higher than previous seasons and she should be considered easier. Is there a “if you can clear x NMD you’re good for Uber?”

I guess I've just reflexively been equating Level Req. with power level, so I suppose I should look more carefully at the gear I'm filtering in my mind. If you want one easy number to refer to, just look at Item Power. It determines the damage of weapons, the base armour of an item, and the upper and lower bounds of the stats that can roll. It's obviously just a coarse measure and the further you go into the game the more you care about the right stats with good rolls, but while you're level 42 you can just make easy calls like "these gloves have a higher item power that what I'm wearing and give me +levels to a skill I'm using", because you won't be wearing them for long

Man I fuckin miss seasonal sets from D3. And also that levelling wasn't some arduous thing but I'll set that aside for now. I liked looking at the seasonal sets and then deciding what to play based on which one seemed like it would be the most fun build. Getting that leg up was a big boon to me. Contrast that with now, where I would like to play a ball lightning sorc. I picked ball lightning sorc because it was A) busted, B) looked fun, and C) only has 1 required aspect that is drop only. And of fuckin course I cannot get that aspect to drop so I am running around with a generic chain lightning build and it's fine I guess. Like kill speed is not an issue, everything dies well enough. But I hate needing to track 2 different build's worth of legendaries to keep an eye out for. When I level glyphs I have to choose if I want to level for what I am or what I would like to be. Same problem with my barbarian. Saw a sick brawler build but can I play that build? No, don't have the legendary support for it. So I am stuck on rend. Could switch to ww maybe, I have gotten every ww legendary under the sun, but it looks boring as poo poo. And I had the same fuckin problem in pre-season too! Running a hota build, never once saw the legendary that reduces shout cooldowns when you did something I don't remember. I don't like it.

Uber Lilith you're going to need to watch a video probably and be able to do the burst strat. If you can't burst her, she's pretty hard. If you can do a NM70 you can probably do Duriel.

i hate that chain lightning sorc is the fastest way to level sorc to 50. it's inconsistent number of hits is way better than the damage ranges in d2 but i still think it's obnoxious. also i really hope the performance thing is fully addressed, it's been awful for me.

Someone will know, I'm sure yeah it’s 73 or pretty near to it that you can really start reliably gambling items for power, before that it’s usually just best to gamble with the intent to find aspects. with the higher cap ilvl now, though, it seems even less likely that you’d find an equipable upgrade. actually thinking about it now, even with fixed/improved drops from the silent chests, the cost/reward ratio is still way off in favor of gambling the slot you need vs. hoping the random items are useful from the chest. i mean i’ll still buy keys because apparently silent chests can drop mount cosmetics but still
