I can take you from 1-70 in under ten minutes if anyone wants to power level!

This is Brownview, I just got d3 a little bit ago. I'll take a few billion off your hands if all that gold is slowing you down on speed runs. On weekdays I get online around midnight your time at the earliest though, so I doubt we can get together until the weekend. I'd be down to do/get carried through rifts or bounties or whatever sometime too.

Supposedly, season 10 starts March 31st. If that true I'm sincerely hoping ps4/bone will get seasons then as well.

That is the season for consoles, iirc seasons last three months and didn't the current season start in feb?

Seasons don't actually have a set time frame. They usually are 3 months but the date is speculation right now. They haven't really said whether or not it'll included console seasons but the thought process was season 10 would start on both so who knows?

So I guess it wasn't speculation. Confirmation of season end date here: https://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/20570422/season-9-ending-soon-3-3-2017

Still no official word on console seasons though.

Oops, crossposting since I'm a dirty Xbone Plebeian.

I just bought this game because all other games are bad. Me and another guy are brand new to the game and the franchise. Story seems a bit poop and also constantly referencing past events maybe?

Anyway, I'm a Wizard and he's a Monk. We have another friend that logged 300+ hours that wants to play with us but he always brings his ridiculously overpowered motherfucker and it ruins the game.

Anything a brand new person should now? Do I really want to be using a high attack sword/crossbow or whatever instead of a low attack magic wand, even as a wizard? It seems that the equipped weapon doesn't actually get used since I just chuck magic blasts out my face.

I'm about 2 hours in and it's fun.

You tell me I didn't build that?

I'll have you know I worked my fingers to the bone to get where I am today.
You can ignore the story if you want. Demons tried to invade, Brave Heroes killed them and stopped it, that is happening again and honestly that's probably more than you need to know. You can probably tell who is going to get killed by the plot, and who is going to betray you.

I think that early on you can use whatever comes with the most damage, because you don't have access to all of the stats yet. Later on, you absolutely will want a class-specific weapon, not because of the sheer damage numbers but because it will give you class-specific bonuses, as well as the attack speed, critical hit chance/damage, and other stats you want to multiply your damage to stupid levels. As you start seeing these things, prioritise them but obviously not at the expense of having really under-levelled gear.

Seasons Arrive on Console

If you’ve been waiting to experience a fresh start for your console characters, you’re in luck! For the first time, those who own the PS4 and Xbox One versions of the game will be able to discover the fun of Seasons, including unique rewards and the Season Journey. We’ll have more details on the specific ins and outs of how Seasons work on console soon, so be sure to stay tuned!

I've updated the OP with the time and date, and will put instructions for how to start a seasonal character once they let us know how it's supposed to work.

Why would it do that!?
Got a possibly stupid set of questions... I had the PS3 version and me and my girlfriend played it through together a year or so ago, got a few nicely developed characters. I recently got Reaper on PS4 and imported the save, but it will only let "me" (my PS4 login) pick the old characters, if she plays alongside me she has to log in as the secondary PS4 account and play a new character. Am I missing something simple, can I just have another person join in on the same console and pick one of my other characters, or do they have to develop their own guest characters?

(At the risk of sounding like the old man I am, I really do miss the good old days, where you'd just have two controllers plugged in, and a mate could just press start and play the game. None of this make a new account, name, pick an avatar, make your own characters rubbish)

No, this is really how it works. You may be able to migrate a character via USB but i doubt it.

So are crafting materials not shareable between characters? My HC characters have different amount of them and I didn't see a place to stash them.

They're not shareable between HC and SC, but you can put them in your shared chest in town and then any of your HC characters should be able to access them.

Oh, weird, you're right, I just loaded it up and saw the tooltip about it not taking up space anymore. Just checked two of my HC characters, and they have the same number of crafting supplies in their inventory, so it seems like the sharing without the shared chest is working ok for mine.

Ah maybe it was adding mats as I switched characters so the number was changing. Good to know because that would make HC a pain.

Do you have to be level 70 to obtain keystones? I want to do greater rifts on my new guy but he doesn't seem to be getting the stones from nephs.

Yes you do. Greater rifts can't be run if you're under 70 so they won't drop.

I plan on playing this on PS4 again when Seasons come out later this week. I've currently got a bunch of Softcore characters and at least 1 Lvl 70 Barbarian Hardcore character. If any other PS4 players want someone to team up with, feel free to add me on PSN: Justinoid418

I put together the new community in hopes of it picking up when seasons came out so I wouldn't count it as dead...yet.

That said season 10 starts during an insane game month for me between Destiny's Age of Triumph, Dark Souls' Ringed City, and Persona 5.

But I will play, dammit!
