I've noticed sometimes a circular symbol appears on the overworld map with a 5 minute timer on it which I assume is a world boss spawn but so far they've all been in other acts I haven't been to yet. No other notifications but I'm sure within a week the entire rotation will be solved and documented.


These are legion events. They’re like little invasions that are similar to beating a rift in D3. Have a group that has to burn down mobs on a timer and it spawns elites at certain thresholds with a boss at the end. It’s really frantic and fun and our group got the mastery with only 3 seconds to spare.

It’s not super clear I don’t feel but every class has a sort of gimmick with skills. It took way too long to figure out the sorcs enchantment skill slots that let you out in two skills and get some rad passives out of it.

I’m honestly kinda digging the story. I know it’s all grim dark and all but there’s a lot going on in the world that’s neat.

Act 2 Donan my man I know you recognized it’s hopeless trying to save your son but even if you did a gaping soul stone wound is not gonna be fixable

This is where I'm at. I enjoyed the story and the game's fun, but it's not really in a state I see myself being excited to do leagues for unless they come with chunky content patches. Though I am hoping paragon boards kind of spice things up a bit after I beat the game, I've gone 3 acts/~15 levels without my build meaningfully changing and I think that's what's boring me

I’m at the point where I’m changing my whole build every act. It keeps it fresh until the end game at least and the acts are long enough to get a decent feel for it.

I don’t get why blizzard still hasn’t implemented a gem bag after all these years. Especially with the slotted inventory system they have now

The enemies telegraph their moves way ahead of time or have a giant rear end marked ring or line. As long as you can see with your eyes and react appropriately then you’ll be okay. When those moves hit though they can absolutely pack a punch or in the case of a herd of goat men, stunlock you to death.

My buddy is doing his first play through as a tanky druid on T1 and even the butcher didn’t give him too much trouble. Just be careful.

So should I not be using arc lash/chain lightning to level my sorc now? It finally clicked as a leveling build that felt good after trying a few other things out and now arc lash seems nerfed.

Play what’s fun to you. Who gives a poo poo if the skill got nerfed somewhat during leveling.

I feel like a lot of people regardless of OP build or not will feel like they aren’t murdering everything with impunity due to level scaling. The maxroll arc lash/chain lightening sorc build is one of the strongest and they’re saying it’s not good enough lol.

Play T1, murder everything easily. Bing bong so simple.

This made me wtf more than anything else in the campaign.

I legit thought she was gonna turn around, give me the finger, and tell me she was playing me all along when she walked into that portal with no second thoughts. But I guess mephisto is just a chill dude who wants to help her get out after literally imprisoning him in a soulstone? What? I guess he plans to corrupt her and escape which is showing a lot more temperance and forethought than the usual blizzard cartoon villains. I would expect the lord of hatred to be raging over having his plans foiled instead of just going with the flow.

Diablo is more the :argh: type. Baal is cheeky and likes war and causing a ruckus, Mephisto is the chill mastermind type.

It'd be slick if there was a dungeon of the original Tristram cathedral! Like, a faithful reproduction of the original 30+ levels-deep dungeon that we fought through in Diablo 1 when we were cheesing for Godly Plate of the Whale.

However, because this is 2023, it's just a dungeon (not a mainline quest, but it would have cellars!!) where people can congregate asynchronously and Town around just like ye olde days. Bonus points if it releases with OG D1 aesthetic items and swag that echo the trinity of mage, warrior, and rogue. Kind of a flagship xp/loot mining zone that people can chill in.

This fully exists in D3 and has for a bit. I doubt they do it again for D4.

Corpse Explosion with miasma and darkness skills are dot focused and feel good. Things literally just melt

The renown grind isn’t too bad. You can get the 3 needed levels for each area just by doing the quests. They’re interesting! The longer quest lines add some nice flair to the world. For example in the swamps you follow the guy from the opening cinematic and learn his story some.

Hey, should I be doing the Acts in order? I just realized I have 3 different main quests I can handle, and they all have the same level. I've just kinda been going to whatever's close, and I'm in the middle of all three right now.

e: oh, also, is there some passive healing mechanic that I don't know about? I'm always getting in fights with ranged goatmen or spirits that throw magic, but at the end of the fight I'm often still at full health despite having soaked up a bunch of spears.

I would. The story just kinda flows that way anyway
