Rinkles posted:This playthrough is feeling a bit pointless. Over an hour into act 2, and nothing so far has been the least bit challenging (outside the beginning of the game before I had any gear). I don't think my health bar has gone below 50% once, and it's usually full because of how generous the life gain gear is. I get that the "real game" starts at level 70 or whatever, but this feels like a waste of time. Why would you design your game this way? Just up your difficulty until it feels challenging.

JohnnySavs posted:There was an Uliana build a few patches back that used it to great effect. You roll off crit on every piece (for other positive effects) in exchange for pretty insane burst damage on Seven Sided Strike/Exploding Palm. 5% base crit means any random three hits in a row is 85.7% likely to give you CHC steroids, which is about as reliable a proc as you can get. It's not really 85.7 because it counts AoE as a single hit for the consecutive hit count but separate hits for crit purposes. So an explosion that hits 5 guys has 5 chances to crit but only counts as 1 hit for your no-crit streak. So as monster density goes up you become less and less likely to proc the ring.

DACK FAYDEN posted:I wonder how the RMAH would have gone over if we had smart loot and post-RoS itemization and Torment difficulties and Adventure Mode from day 1 rather than Inferno i61-3 Act gating bullshit. Probably not a huge issue. I remember buying decently rolled useful legendaries for a few million like a Skorn or dual socket (remember those?) Manticore. I had characters in Act 3 Inferno and capable of doing the Hellfire Ring stuff and their gear probably cost < $5 combined. I'd imagine a full class set of non ancient gear being pretty cheap. Except maybe for trifecta gloves/jewelry.

Rinkles posted:What's a reasonable GR ceiling for a novice player using an Impale DH? I doubt I'll get to 80. Haven't tried this season but in past seasons 75 is doable by any class if you just get the required items and they are decently rolled. They don't need to be amazing or anything, you can probably do it with 0 ancients.

bio347 posted:I'm continually weirded out that almost all crusader builds revolve around mass attack speed. The heavily armoured warrior of the light, wielding a bigass 2h flail in one hand and a massive shield in the other, is aaaaaaaallllll about attacking as many times per second as possible for some reason. It's mainly a result of main damage ability consumes a ton of resources vs does not consume resources. Or is dependent on cooldowns vs not dependent on cooldowns.

You can just join public games with the bounty tag and knock them out in 15-20 min. Also the power creep this season means T13 is trivial.

I found SWK Bells to be great for speed running as a monk. Just one shot the whole screen at GR70, and this is without Focus/Restraint. Downside is you will randomly just die because you have 0 toughness.

GR90 should be trivial for any class this season as long as you get the required items. They don't need to be ancient or anything.

euphronius posted:I have a question. I got the IK 6p which raises damage by 1500% when the two buffs are active . Set bonuses don't show up on your character sheet. The sheet is only useful for comparing performance between two of the same set. So if you have IK and want to see if gloves with 10 crit 40 chd is better or 9 crit 50 chd is better the sheet damage will tell you that. But it won't tell you if your Raekkor set is doing more damage than your IK set.

The "top tier" wave of light looks interesting, or run support for a while? I think the only thing I'm missing is illusory boots. Bells is super super squishy. I tried it and I one shot stuff at GR85 but die if anything looks at me funny.

Sgt. Cosgrove posted:I’m only at gr40 with not great gear and I basically have to run rrog and both of those just to survive long enough to pop ep and sss. At GR 40 run a rune that's not cold for exploding palm. The dot will kill stuff for you, no SSS needed.

I'm playing monk this season and at GR40 you should just kill stuff before they kill you. Dash in, punch until palm is applied and gently caress off to the next pack. You'll have a toughness problem until you get to GR 70+ because the main way you get toughness (landing SSS) doesn't work because stuff dies too fast.

Diablo isn't worth playing without RoS. The necromancer is just that, an extra class. So if you're fine playing one of the other 6 classes you can skip the necro for now.

Vakal posted:I was curious about how this build works, since on paper it seems inherently inferior to just a pure marauder build. Nat's increases all damage you do while the Marauder bonus is your personal, non sentry damage. The Nat + Marauder build is primarily about doing a bunch of sentry damage.

Admiral Joeslop posted:What is the best build among DMO, Tal Rasha, and Firebird's? Currently running Frozen Orb DMO and it's pretty good but I feel like I have a lot of downtime after I burn through AP. It's only a few seconds but that's a long time in Diablo. For DMO you try to pool your resources for when CoE is on cold and then dump it so downtime is part of the play style. It's also why I don't play DMO.

Sagers posted:I seem to be missing a transition step somewhere. Generally a new 70 with decent yellows, uniques, and some starting set gear can handle T1/T2 without issue. Once you assemble a set in the 2.6.1 era, there's a noticeable bump up to T6-TX with some good rerolls. "Easy" is what I consider one-shotting mobs, not running into resource problems, and reliably proccing In-geom or whatever your movement speed buff of choice is. DH shouldn't have to use goldwrap at all for T13. You just murder everything on screen in < 1s. The only things that one shot you have a huge wind up like grotesque explosions so just don't stand in those. It's not like they're hard to avoid. The game is expecting you to avoid things that have a long wind up time and don't follow you around so you're not meant to be able to face tank them. bamhand fucked around with this message at 18:31 on Dec 4, 2017 |

GTJustin posted:Occy ring on your follower is mandatory, it's a 75-85% dmg buff when you're in the circle. I prefer templar for heals+spirit regen, throw tfury/occy ring/unity/templar token (upgrade yellow tokens from blacksmith till you get an invincibility one). The belt is helpful when you die on a boss. It can be a huge pain in the rear end to otherwise get your stacks back. But I suppose the answer is to never die.

Nehru the Damaja posted:Pushed further into the season than I expected with my first guy. Hitting a wall on high-60s GRs though, and I imagine higher GRs are my only real chance at getting gemmed to 65+ to get a conquest for Destroyer tier. Is that accurate or is one of these other conquests deceptively easy enough to do? The GR40 with no set piece once is trivial. Every class should be able to get 80+ fairly easily though. You'll probably need to pick up every item required for the build but you won't need augments, ancients, or high level gems. For example: This guy can do GR80 easily. Only notable piece of gear is an ancient source. https://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/bamhand-1890/hero/95795309 I did GR40 on this guy, didn't have non set pieces for a few slots so I just left them empty. https://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/bamhand-1890/hero/95451182 bamhand fucked around with this message at 18:15 on Jan 10, 2018 |
