Tinfoil Papercut posted:Serious question because I haven't played since RoS first came out: If you're absolutely pushing to be the very best on the leader boards (with no rewards) then yes. If you're just trying to get 90% of the way there you get a fair bit of freedom. If you just want to stomp in demon's faces for 20-40 hours every season then pick a class at random and go wild and you'll hit at least GR70 (unlocks "Primal" items that come with maximum rolls on all stats).

Antares posted:i mean it definitely depends. some 2/4pcs are huge power boosts, but DMO is garbage before 6pc. but probably generally true Yeah Rathma for instance does no real damage on its own before the 6p, but does give survivability. (and you really need Jesseth to make it work for you)

Nuebot posted:Is there any way to influence what kind of rift you get at all? I'm trying to clear a Torment X rift in 6 minutes but dang I keep getting really lovely spread out rifts with almost no elite guys. Just one good bloodmarsh map would be aces. Nope, when you're trying for fast rifts sometimes it's easier to just walk back out if you get a bad map or low density. Faster to quit and remake game than clear the Rift, unless you need the materials etc anyway.

Rinkles posted:I'm guessing it's also weighted towards class stuff Correct there's "Smart Loot" that should give you more class specific loot and more items with your main stat (STR/DEX/INT), a lot of the best loot (class sets) won't unlock until you're playing at least Torment 1 at L70, so hitting that is your 1st big goal.

Rinkles posted:What is the deal with mats not being auto pickup? Gems I can sort of understand because they take up inventory space, but not materials. They did take up inventory space until the last major patch (or 2 patches ago?), slow progress... At least they've got an AoE pickup and don't use inventory space now.

Yeah you only get one set of Haedrig's Gift bags per season, the other cosmetics etc. are account wide but you need to choose your 1st class then hope you get a few off class drops for your next one.

Yeah once you've used a gem for an Augment/in a different character's inventory not your main stash etc. then you'll get another copy of it drop off the next guardian (assuming you've already got the whole set).

Chapter 4 of the season journey is the main part, after that it's just cosmetic portrait frames to show how far you got. Still provides a decent guide to progression towards higher GR etc and some things to do along the way.

Cube/salvage everything, you know you'll never use it. No trading in or out of season 2 hours after the item originally dropped with the other players that were present. Maybe keep an off-set for the characters you currently have if you find yourself swapping a lot. My off season stash became suddenly a lot cleaner once I realised I'd never really be playing non-season again and everything was useless (except specific achievement items and a couple of legacy Legendary/Set items)

Hexenritter posted:what's the general consensus on which difficulty to go to and when? I've always played on hard until I've got a few rares then bumped to expert once I'm oneshotting trash mobs. I'm still getting my current season character up to 70 but after that what then? I prematurely jumped to Torment I just now but with 65k dps that was a massive overestimation of what I could do. What's the sweet spot for how many hits it should take to kill trash mobs with standard attacks before thinking about bumping up for the xp/loot? I consider Expert a bit of a trap difficulty, it's like 50% (75%?) harder than Master for 25% more rewards (numbers aren't right but the concept is). I normally alternate Hard/Master depending on what loot I've found and then knock it up to T1 at least as soon as possible at 70 to get working on my sets.

There used to be a fun issue when they first put in the Book of Cain to ID everything at once and it would freeze up people in your clan/community/whatever one shows the items when you did like 5+ items at once. Lots of HC players were getting whiny that we were trying to kill them.

Nice easy Crusader CR this week. Public T13 games are great for farming, I've found public GR games tend to sweep through 80 as well which can help for those last few gem levels (assuming you're not completely dead weight).

Or are you not able to enter those portals until you hit 70 yourself? I want to say not able to enter the portal but I don't know for sure... Don't think I've ever been in that situation.

I'm really enjoying playing a channelling Tal meteor build this season, it's nice to have no cooldowns to wait on, you're just always going. Normally I skip straight to Tal/Vyr archon build but I think I'll just stick with this until I get bored.
