Can reforging yield primals?

Have you completed GR70? I was wondering why I wasn't seeing any in HC and forgot about that requirement.

Yeah, I know that know. In EU it was supposed to start at 5 PM CET, same time as PC version but apparently today they noticed they can't do different regional launch times on consoles, so us EU peeps get to wait till 3 AM CET.

Do these seasons have different/new drops? I already have one of each class at level 70, so don't see the point of starting over otherwise

Doing the same, though my main DH needs work as I can only do GR47 or so by myself, never mind these primal drops I've never heard of until now.

Yeah it was just the low levels, for some reason people start on normal even though hard is just as fast :)

It's quite enjoyable to play this game without hackers, for once.

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.
Professional Russians need not apply.

So, how does the Season work differently to normal offline? I'd like to imagine that there is no more duping ridiculous amounts of crafting materials or items, but is there any different mechanics I should know about, or is it still the exact game, mechanics, skills, sets etc?

Awesome!

You can, but you won't be eligible for the leaderboards. According to reddit, all the known hacks/exploits involved imported saves from oldgen so even though season saves are local, hacking should be minimal/nonexistent.

Mailbox is disabled and all loot is strictly personal, no trading whatsoever (unlike PC).

Awesome!

actually now that crafting mats are stuck in that limbo inventory im not sure if you can even drop them anymore so that method is out.

can probably still do the thing where you make like 10-20 rare whatevers, upgrade them and if you dont get what you want reset and try again.

Shhh. My Common Sense is Tingling



Season on console is pretty nice. I played last season on pc but got burnt out after I got my set items. Now I can play and still have a break from mouse clicking. I decided to go with WD as that was the last class I played in non seasons and didn't really push too far with him. I just finished getting my set, but I'm missing the feet somehow? Gearing up to find a good build now, but the cobbled together one I'm using is solid through t4.

Yeah I am not a fan of set dungeons. I tried it a couple of times and got close and the answer is basically take off gear and replace it with yellow pieces with CD-R.

They have a large aggro range and teleport under you with no visual indicators. Not fun. So yea, my season journey is over. Even doing it in gotta go fast mode I just find myself hoping for good rng and yea im done.

I just don't understand this, the blurb at the start of the set dungeon says game difficulty has no effect on it, so why are my stats not normalized or something? Am I supposed to complete it half naked or what?

You should have no trouble facerolling if you can even do lower torments.

Facerolling it is actually exactly the problem. See, the dungeon reqires you to hit 10 enemies within 10 yards of you by Mystic Ally...but my Mystic Allies kill everything near instantly...

I hate set dungeons and I hate that my season journey is over because of something dumb like that. If I unlock all the things in the next tier will I still get the reward? I can just google what the challenges are.

You know he's the villain, because he's got shifty eyes.
Only your monk needs to be near 10 enemies, not the mystic allies. Let them lag behind while you run past stragglers into denser groups of enemies.

And no, you have to unlock the season journey chapters in order, even if the next one is fully complete.

It's sorta the same thing. You have to make gear to keep enough hatred up to continuously hit mobs with impale without missing. 20 in a row x 5.

Ass Gas or Grass, No one rides for free
I've gotten my season Demon Hunter up to about level 200 paragon. I just finished doing the set dungeon earlier. And yes, it's super annoying with the worm that appears underneath you and ruins your "no enemies within melee" goal. However, I completed the other objectives in the Marauders set dungeon and was able to progress with the season challenge. So even though I failed the no melee thing, I still got credit. I'm not really a fan of these set dungeons, but they do give you something to work on besides the usual content. Set Dungeons aside, I'm really enjoying the season content on consoles. I can see myself playing intermittently throughout the season.
