Node posted:Whats an easy to learn Trag'Oul build? I looked at some of the builds on Diablofans, and it seems the strongest is one where you have lots of CDR, have Simulacrum and Land of the Dead, and you blood rush around, gathering up elite packs, and unleashing your two big skills on the packs, rinse and repeat. Does anyone have a suggestion for T13/Rift farming build? There's a blood mage trags build which is a lot better for farming if you still want to use the set

It's kinda weird how I lost all interest into the game since finishing the journey, it's just waiting for the next season now. Maybe Seasons and patch cycles need to be shorter.

Usually happens to me as well when I lose that 'season journey' carrot to chase as the leaderboard one doesn't appeal to me. That first week after a long break is all the better for it, but I wouldn't mind if they were 2 months long instead just to get that awesome week more often.

I have never found a primal anything, but in all fairness this is my first season ever. I am very excited to get my new stash tab, the moment I do my first augmentation to complete the season quest thing. Speaking of which, I have never augmented, I have a level 60 gem, what should I augment??? https://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Strangepants-1244/hero/92185269 I would really like to be able to do T80, but I'm not quite sure how to get there from here.

Augment the ancient you are the least likely to find a replacement for.

Remember you have to complete Greater Rift 70 once in order for primals to start dropping. Obtaining them though is not that big of a deal, they usually suck and they are ultra rare.

Most folks (me included) seem to get to a certain point/hit whatever goals they set for themselves and quit/get bored then wait for the next season. Leaderboards and eternal grinding are fine if that's your thing. To me, it just gets to a certain point where it's no longer fun to grind for ancient items, 1% DPS increases, 1 level higher GR, grinding gems, etc. Once I get to a certain power level (~GR75) that's about as far as I want to go. I made a monk this season for 4 man GRs to try it finally and I played it for one game of 90s GRs. It's not for me.

And none of it costs a dime!

Speaking of which, I have never augmented, I have a level 60 gem, what should I augment??? Don't know much about Wiz, but those gloves (enchanted to 10% crit) look very good if build needs CDR, and are probably "the ancient you are the least likely to find a replacement for". And since you already have the gems you use at 70+, no reason not to get the one for augmenting up to that as well. xXAdmiralBekHarXx posted:Also dont be me and accidentally augment an int item with strength. Haha, yeah. My first augment fuckup wasted gem for vitality, so not a complete write-off, but use Topaz.

I was poking fun at Serrod's quest to get a full set of yellows with the word primal in their name. As for normal legendaries, I'd not mind trying to build a hodgepodge LoN build out of the grab bag of orimals you get out of the season and then try and do the highest GR you can with it. It'd be interesting challenge at least.

I try to give advice to people even though I'm just some filthy "casual" and not some elitist diablo nerd (I'm a lesser nerd in the diablo nerd hierarchy, apparently) I even said that if high end stuff is what you're into, fine. Your words were "chasing leaderboards," not mine. Maybe stop being so defensive since I wasn't attacking you or anyone based on how they play a loving video game because who cares? Do what's fun. For you. The end. Also please post your bnet profile. I want to see what a real player's account looks like.

Shumagorath posted:When does Season 11 end? I gave up on mastering a set dungeon and the last tier to get the stash tab looks too frustrating to be worthwhile, but I need a time sink while I listen to podcasts. Well S11 started July 20 and seasons last 3 months so we're looking sometime around the 3rd week of October, so plenty of time. Mastering a set dungeon isn't bad, every class has at least one that is considered a joke. If you're a Necro, the Rathma dungeon is really easy.

The scaling gets pretty intense. Also, does anybody know if Pain Enhancer damage procs on hit effects? I swapped out Blind Faith in my lazystorm farming build so I could cube different jewelry instead of RoRG but I do feel like I'm killing slower. I know the bonestorm effect got its proc coefficient lowered so it wouldn't be causing the blind on hit as much but if PE damage has a more appropriate proc rate then it's still worth the RoRG.

How critical is it to roll high damage on the Manald Heal proc? Like, obviously more damage is better, but how noticeable is a mediocre 13500 vs. a nice 13950? That's only a 4% difference, but it is the main source of damage for Archon builds. I'm tempted to use it in the cube and try to get a RoRG but neither are particularly easy to get ideal rolls on. Also, last night I upgraded 3 pieces on my Wizard with ancient versions in one game. Fan-loving-tastic RNG.

Manald Heal has a better chance of rolling well compared to RoRG, which is always locked to aspd/lph, but if you don't have a strong proc roll on your MH (like within ~5% of max) then it's still probably better to cube the Manald and wear the RoRG.

# ? Aug 29, 2017 16:07 |

Yeah, cube the worse of the two you have but focus more on just getting the gear together to get the build going.

Wondering if I could get some help on my crusader. Started season 11 after not having played a few seasons, and doing OK I guess. At grift 59 so far, but want to get higher obviously. My character is here: https://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Sjonkel-2126/hero/98892939 Of the upgrades I want, is another Unity so my templar can wear it, and a focus for him so he doesn't die. Also looking for a Obsidian Ring of the Zodiac. Other than that, I seem to have most items recommended at Icy-Veins. All any any tips would be great. I also have the full 6 set of the Blessed Hammer set, but obviously missing more pieces overall. Is that a better build to go for overall? Can start using mats and blood shards to try to get what I need, which is mostly the weapon, bracers and pants.

My character is here: https://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Sjonkel-2126/hero/98892939 Looks pretty good so far. Get your legendary gem levels up. This is a huge part of your damage. ORotZ is definitely your biggest need at the moment. Getting it will allow you to have AC up about 60-70% of the time. If you're struggling for with toughness, you can switch your Long Arm of the Law passive for the Health/Wrath spent passive. If you're fighting efficiently, you won't really miss long arm. I wouldn't recommend switching to Unity yet. I'm running essentially the same build as you at GR82, without needing the damage mitigation. You'll really miss the lightning cycle of CoE. Your gloves don't appear to have been enchanted. Definitely roll for higher CHD. You're missing vitality from several set pieces. Look to replace these pieces to up your toughness, except maybe your helm, which should ideally have Strength, %CHC, and %Sweep Attack. Consider switching some of your gems from rubies to diamonds. Look for a new Golden Flense. This isn't high priority, but getting 6 wrath per hit makes a big difference. In general, make sure you're fighting only large packs. Use Condemn to bunch mobs up; this will be considerably easier once you have your ORotZ. If there are only 3-8 enemies in an area, skip them.

Ok I think having 3,000,000 health is fun but a 10 pack of 620 Essence Singularity mages just deleting everything on screen in my GR 75 is probably the coolest thing I've ever done in Diablo. I finally completed my seasonal Softcore journey, got my gems up to 70 and have about 650 Paragon. Probably gonna finish my farm crusader until he can run TXIII with Sages on but holy heck am I ready for season 12 to be awesome.
