Kheldarn posted:And you guys thought it was too early to be thinking about Season 16 sets. It's in the patch notes, literally first line of the "Details" section. We will be conducting the Patch 2.6.4 PTR over the course of one week, starting Wednesday, November 21. During the course of the PTR, there may be periodic maintenances, outages, hotfixes, or minor patches.

soscannonballs posted:Not sure how D3 calculates damage, but is there any set thats going to be better than LoN? I get the appeal of LoN and not being bound by class sets and the talents/play they dictate. but I never thought it was competitive at the super high end to begin with. Then again I can't remember all the changes through the seasons since it was introduced, maybe it was for a while.

tetsuo posted:Almost all of them, certainly. Demon hunters top GR build for a while was an abomination of a lon build where they would deliberately tank their health pool to less than 20% for guaranteed crit from some item and then fan of knives the mobs. It was apparently completely miserable to play

LoN still has the problem that its defense doesn't scale to higher GRs as well as actual sets.

tetsuo posted:Almost all of them, certainly. LoN was actually up until a couple seasons ago still the best set for WD. A while back there was a LoN crusader build (thorns and bombardment) that was the best. Other than that I think most LoN builds have been second class. The problem with the set is there really aren’t that many good legendaries and they’re already setup such that it is in a slot that your set isn’t in (belt, sometimes shoulders, main/offhand) so you’re giving up your amazing set bonus to pick up 25% chance to cheat death shoulders

Tenacious J posted:Seems like someone said “gently caress it, let’s blow the doors of set bonuses and see what happens” which I FULLY support. But could this be a sign of the sun setting on Diablo 3? Some shenanigans before diablo 4? They can’t be assuming that D3 playerbase (all 200 of them) will migrate to Immortal..? I mean the game just came out on Switch and was the top selling EShop game above preorders for Pokemon and Super SMash Bros About 8 of my friends have bought it on there and are getting really into it. Only 2 of them had it on PC Everyone is REALLY into it at the moment Fuzz posted:Think I'm gonna make a Monk next season, because 9000% Ulianna's sounds loving hilarious. The ring doesn't reduce the requirements below 2 I think so you can't get the 2 Set bonus on like 9 different sets

They should make a 6pc set bonus for Blackthorne's where you inherit all the powers of the last elite pack you killed and do a thousand million bazillion % damage with them.

If we are talking wacky poo poo, then make Crain's set offensive so it can be used to farm paragon. Also loving buff Shenlong so I can play an Innas generator build again.

This is the LoN corpse god necro build I use: https://www.diablofans.com/builds/91190-lon-corpse-god-necromancer It probably isn't nearly as optimal as the high level GR pushing builds, but detonating corpses this often and this fast is tons of fun. I feel tanky as hell too with all the damage reduction. Look forward to trying it out with the new buffs.

Fayez Butts posted:Is the PTR active yet? I uninstalled my copy back when I was running out of hard drive space and now I can't remember how to get back in Of course not! Can't enable it early, can we? I doubt it'll be open before 5:00 PM Pacific at this point, which means the end of the day for me. As for getting on the PTR: How to Particpate To participate in the public test, you must have a Diablo III game license attached your Battle.net account in good standing (i.e. one that hasn't been suspended or banned). In addition, you will also need to download and install the Blizzard Battle.net desktop app if you have not already done so. Step 1: Create a PTR account. To create a PTR account, log in to Blizzard Battle.net Account Management and double-click on your Diablo III game license; this will bring you to the game management page. On this page, click "Create a PTR account. If you've participated in any previous Diablo III PTR, the "Create PTR account" button may not appear. This is because you've already created a PTR account and can therefore skip this step. Step 2: Once you have created a PTR account, installed the Blizzard Battle.net desktop, and logged in with your Blizzard Battle.net credentials, select "Diablo III" from the main menu on the left-hand side of the application. Step 3: On the Diablo III screen, there is a drop-down menu right above the "Play" button (note that this may say "Install" if you do not have Diablo III currently installed). Select "PTR: Diablo III" from this drop-down menu before proceeding. Step 4: You should now have the option to install and play the patch. The PTR is available in all supported languages, and accounts from all regions are eligible to participate.

Was it the 2.6 update where they buffed a bunch of sets already? I liked that, so I'll probably like when they do it more. The game is still fun, at least for a bit each season. Why do people bot in this game anyway? To get on the leaderboards? To what end?

Someone on Reddit said they're going to use the buff to LON to see how much further they can push their Lightning Monk. That's... dedication to a gimmick, and I wish them the best of luck!

You bot to get crafting mats and Grift keys so that when you want to sit down and actually play you can just run Grifts since they are a lot more fun than regular rifts.

Yeah I used to bot too. I didn’t earn a single piece of gear that was usable but it saved me hours of farming crafting mats for rerolls. I would still do it if they didn’t ban people. Crafting mat farming is so dumb.
