What's WB? I'm loosely following the crit arc build found on the forums but also kinda exploring and doing my own thing by taking a bunch of hp stats and stuff. Right now running at 3k hp and 14k dps, call of the brotherhood dropped so mobs are freezing too

WB is whirling blades. Link together WB + Faster Attacks, and you can use it to speed through maps faster than you can walk. Add a blood magic gem if you're starved on mana (unlikely if you're a caster). Add the fortify gem, and you can get the fortify buff for less damage from all sources. Divinarius is a bad choice for crit arc, as the area boost is wasted. Either go dual daggers (kris are best bases), or dagger + shield.

Oh I bought a Divinarius before I read that, but moreso because I wanted to try a flameblast ele build after this one and it's really good for that while also being a big upgrade for me right now. You're saying Doryani's is a bad choice though? Cause uh, I already bought one of those too! rip

Nah, Doryani's works just as well. Just can't whirl if you only have a Doryani's, but you can go Dagger + Doryani's instead. Also, grabbing a Doryani's can let you get away with replacing your Also, it lets you replace your Life Leech gem with a Increased Crit Strikes gem (phenomenal for a crit arc build these days). MoM/EB/GR doesn't need that much leech to sustain your energy shield.

I've got  and  currently and they look really good, but I'm also tempted to buy  ... It's a hit to my currency but I'll probably make it back?? Anyway huge thanks for your advice, the game is way deep and I haven't had much time to actually research things, gem setups alone were tough after a lot of diablo 3 playing.

Yeah I was really looking forward to pushing for a Demi this go around since there will be so many available. SSF makes it sound even better. If this turns into a flashback race (currently winning the vote) I may not even play.

Nearly 5k votes on the first poll and it's overwhelmingly in favour of making it more difficult. In poll 2, half of those want flashback and a third want SSF. I'm kind of surprised by the demand there for SSF, I always thought of it as a smaller niche. Beyond/invasion/talisman are the most popular just now in poll 3. Kind of interesting to see what the community thinks it will enjoy.

People want Talisman back til they get a Bonespire Talisman in a Perandus pack.

Run another one of those Arctic Blast events with the gently caress-off death clouds of cold and strongboxes everywhere. Bonus points for putting them in the labyrinth.

This race is going to be so hosed. Perandus mobs are completely unoptimized and laggy as hell and the community was in an uproar over it. Now they want to add beyond and talisman bullshit on top of that and try to race? GGG is focused on 2.3 and doesn't have time to play test this. It's gonna be a shitshow. Yes, I know I can play SSF any league but I don't want that handicap just for myself, I want it for everyone.

I would 110% play this if SSF was turned on. 2 weeks is perfect for that stuff. Any of the other options are cool too.

The great thing about being a pacifistic summoner is that you can run in circles while the minions put out all the DPS.  I had a buddy help me zerg Merciless Labyrinth in about twenty minutes, but even with him cycloning things to death it was a hair-raising endeavour. Thank God for Forbidden Taste.

Sotar posted:Unique jewels can be good in very sprcific circumstances. Like Izaro's Turmoil in my Whispering Ice cold to fire build. Actually I'm pretty sure Izaro's Turmoil is worse than int + damage rolls jewels for WI. Or at the very least you get less utility out of them. Like, it's really good on every other skill you would turn from cold to fire, I'm just pretty sure it's not better than an average rare for WI because int is such an important stat.

Ixjuvin posted:You can play solo self found whenever you want. Flashback leagues are the tits. Wouldn't mind one of the suggestions earlier in the thread. SSF, but with 10x (or however much) currency drops, so that players might actually use currency to reroll their own gear now. Maybe that's too easy and not the challenge that most are looking for, though.

I think GGG said that they don't want to increase currency drops for a single league as that would lead to the following leagues feeling "less fun" due to decreased rewards by contrast.

Probably going to roll some sort of hilariously broken trapper for the flashback. Start with ice trap and maybe eventually get to chaos trap w/ poison.
