Interesting post about the Lilith fight: https://old.reddit.com/r/diablo4/comments/1aek4ya/instead_of_fixing_uber_lilith_ph2_mechanics_are/ Sounds like Blizzard took away the ability to cheese it but didn't fix any of the issues.

I'm having a terrible time getting started in this season. I understand I'm supposed to be doing vaults, but I don't know how to get into them. https://imgur.com/a/nCodeoB Where is the vault and how do I enter it? Yes I'm a filthy casual, I know

Mebh posted:Tier 90 plus vaults dropping pure 925 gear is really interesting. I can clear them reliably now with my druid and it's made it so utterly clear that doing anything else is a complete waste of time. Same boat. Well, I'm not at tier 90, but on the last stage of the season journey and junking every inventory full of loot. Ah well, there's the season done in a week. Overall, the season was fine. Vaults aren't anything to write home about, but it was good to have a change from NMDs. I like how speedy the fixed layout made it and the final room is way better than fighting a boss. The spider isn't flashy but some of its abilities are very good and the barrier filled a hole in my build (pen rogue). I would like seasons to have more meat to them, but the base game itself needs more meat to it first. If they're really doing a loot overhaul in season 4, that's great and definitely is my #1 priority, even before adding more stuff to do.

poop chute posted:What's the hot tip for power leveling and gearing? Disclaimer, there are better and more efficient ways to get to 50, but they are things like "run Dopamine Tunnel for 2 hours" which I would rather just not do. So this isn't the literal fastest, but it should get you there real quick, especially compared to past seasons. From 1 to 50, I recommend World Tier 2 since we're powerful enough to clear content at the same speed as WT1 The seasonal questline should get you to about level 30. From 31 to 50, you should have two goals 1. Clear the dungeons that will unlock codex abilities for your endgame build 2. Do activities that give Whispers Under level 50, the best source of XP is the tree of whispers, so anything that gives whispers is way more XP/minute than it seems. Don't bother with stuff like 'walk across the map to do a cellar for 1 whisper', but whisper Dungeons, the Arcane Tremor Zone every hour, World Bosses, or even an open world area with overlapping whispers (eg., kill 50 skeletons and harvest 100 motes from dead enemies and also summon a Boss to kill it). All very good options. I don't bother with the WT2->3 capstone until level 50 because WT3 is slow when you're underleveled. But once you do that, do an Arcane Tremor zone for 15 minutes to rain Sacreds all over you. Once you have a Sacred mainhand weapon, you're ready to crush WT3. The Arcane Tremor Zone (for whispers, once an hour) is really good, and do every World Boss that pops up, and doing a quick bigboss kill + blood extract in the pvp zone is also excellent XP + whispers. When there aren't any good whisper options up, NMDs and especially NMVaults are the best activity to do. I don't bother with Helltides until WT4. You only spend a couple hours in WT3, and finding hellcinders is much slower when your build isn't online yet. Same with the above, at level 70 I do the WT3->4 capstone since it's really slow to actually play in WT4 when you're low level.

New patch: tl;dr: - Most robot skills had their effect increased by 30 to 60 percent. - Vampiric and Suppressor affixes nerfed (Vampiric heals the mob for half as much and Suppressor turns on and off instead of always being on). - Reworked the layouts of several dungeons to create less backtracking. - NM Dungeon and Vault Sigils now show the monster level on them. - A bunch of bug fixes for the seasonal quest line. https://news.blizzard.com/en-us/diablo4/23964909/diablo-iv-patch-notes

Mebh posted:When you trash 8 full inventories of 925 gear after a few runs just looking for 3/4 decent stats to upgrade a 830 neck I've had since I first got to WT4 it's somewhat maddening. not as a defense of a bad system, but i find it much easier to do inventory management the higher level my character is. outside of needing 925 ilvl armor last season and only then for AoZ, ilvl was more or less already ignorable. you only need ~820 ilvl now for jewelry and armor for the rolls to be able to be perfect. so that 830 amulet, were it not a 2/4 or whatever, would otherwise be identical to a 925. the armor difference between 820 and 925 armor now doesn't matter for monster level 154 content, especially with the juggernaut aspect they added personally once i have a 2/4 ancestral, i stop looking for perfect rolls of the stats i want and instead look for volume that is, a 4/4 (or 3/4 rerolled to 4/4) will generally be more impactful than a 2/4 with 2 perfectly rolled stats or even a 3/4 with above average rolls. so in addition to ignoring ilvl basically as soon as you hit WT4 (outside of weapons) i also filter on other must-haves to quickly knock a slot out. a helm must have cdr, rerolling into cdr takes too many souls on average to justify it, so it has to be there natively. and that's the same for all the must haves, gloves with 4/4 core skill rank, neck with 3/3 passive skill, boots must have innate evade charges and move speed. also once you're at 2/4 you can generally start ignoring some slots altogether because you're going to wind up with a unique in it. tempest roar for drugs, for instance. or you might find you want to ignore certain weapon types, maybe ball sorc doesn't use a staff so all of them get trashed it's not good or fun, but my inventory management as a % of time played plummets as i get closer to 100 and only goes down from there

Fixed an issue where Son of Malphas could be damaged by traps, which could lead to players first encountering him with low health. -but not all the other monsters??? Fixed an issue where Bloodmarked could not be cleansed if it was applied while mounted. -this has been around since prerelease. it is what you could use to invite players to your party and force them to become bloodmarked without the normal popup warning them about it. good QoL and bug fix in one Fixed an issue where the Sorcerer's Incinerate skill didn't have additional visual effects when cast with 10+ Ranks. -remember when this was hyped up before release? Fixed an issue where the notification for new Cosmetics in the Stable wouldn't disappear. -not the biggest change, but i hate all the attention economy notification stuff in this game, i'm glad they've addressed this one. maybe they'll do the shop next (lmao notabug wontfix) Fixed an issue where Harlequin Crest was the wrong color when equipped. -omg is it that weird green color now??

I basically don't look for good rolls of the individual stats at all. I've never even got that far before completing all the non Uber Lilith season content. At most I get 2/4 with a few 3/4 pieces. For ARPGs I usually set myself a personal goal of trivializing a certain content tier before I'm done in any given season. E.g. clear NM 100 easily, or do a certain map level in PoE etc. I can get to the point where I can just about clear cap content fairly easily but to progress past that, the pacing and the fact that it's pure RNG feels totally off. After an evening of getting unlucky where 50 percent is spent in town, alt tabbing to a spreadsheet every few seconds going "wait was it damage vs vulnerable or damage to nearest that scaled multiplicatively?" I just spend longer and longer between each run until I give up and go watch a movie or something. In D3 you had numerous ways to target farm specifics, from upgrading rares and kadala to even the free crafted primal ancient later in the seasons. You'd do a few runs, come back and sink all your currency, see if you got *thing* in a few seconds then go out and do it again. Maybe it's fine and I'm just a nerd who plays too many games, but I do really like this game and want it to be better. The systems that came before from many of their other titles showed this to be possible and it's incredibly frustrating.

Tier 90+ vaults dropping only 925 items owns. Pity filtering loot is still tedious as hell. Double pity that vaults regularly fill your inventory part way through, and teleporting out wipes your charges. Is there a Druid build that excels at blasting uber bosses? My lightning hippie crushes vaults of any level, but I had to port out of Uber malphas (playing hardcore) because I wasn’t good enough at dodging relative to how quickly he died.
