A lot of if not almost all of, my deaths in boss fights are because eventually I just want to hit the fucking guy instead of click once, move ,over and over and over. Once I’ve had enough I just yolo damage and take another portal in to get it over with. I keep moving to progressively higher...

Now that I think of it Diablo2 was just about the same. Melee pretty much sucked and so did two handers. I'd be more than happy to play a melee in its current form if they would make them immune to one shot fuckstick mechanics like the lightning running man dickheads, the neverstopsfollowing...

I’ve not done any actual group play that isn’t exp leeching so my knowledge is lacking in that respect. Where would strategic twisting of auras be useful? Game moves so fucking quickly that preempting anything seems unlikely and it’s just a matter of gain benefits of auras at random times...

Too bad you’re not in standard. I just killed shaper for the first time and for whatever reason went ahead and spawned Uber elder. The problem being it’s not like I killed shaper cleanly and I need more reps on the fight to get it deathless. You can imagine how my first two Uber attempts went......

I’m debating whether to go league or not when the next one hits. I started in standard, is there any particular reason to do league? I have a good currency/item base and can pretty much roll up any build that catches my eye. Starting over every 3 months seems odd to me. Rolling new characters...

I’m down with all that in general but the exp penalty doesn’t need to be so draconian to teach lessons. Halve it and it will still be plenty of incentive to tighten up without making people miserable. Well half the misery anyway.

All tec builds clear fast. Razors have meh boss damage but better survivability, oni builds have about twice or more boss dps. You’ll eat the cost of a 6 link loreweave if razors but other than that either build is cheapish unless you want good crit multi jewels for an oni build. Razors have...

I wish I could get into delves. Somehow feels like a chore even though it’s really no different than anything else in the game. Probably too many failed expectations dynamiting walls to find yet another fucking lost armor crate. That and the lame ass mobs standing juuuuust outside of flare radius.

It’s always been the answer to all boss fights I’ve done. Mino thus far has been the hardest for me to get in tune with. Probably has to do with the cramped space. Almost every other boss can be circled which helps a lot in getting used to the fight. I also tend to fall in love with mashing the...

Lol. That boss can eat a dick.

I’ll get shit for admitting it but Minotaur rapes me. I get caught by that fucking burrow every time. Then I’ll move in to stop it and the rocks get me. I need to just buy a bunch of maze maps and run them to get the rhythm of the fight down. I thought hydra and chimera would be the pains in...

Molten strike looks powerful as hell and I’m really tempted to use it but I’m loathe to give up the tec slam clear even though it’s not great for single target. Molten doesn’t look bad clearing but it’s nothing like sprinting around behind a giant wall of fire. The itch is there though and I’m...

It seemed odd to me they would even spend 1 minute of time working on a map that not only does no one do but a map that (almost) no one can do. That map trolled me hard, it was my first unique map drop. Tier 8, cool, lets do this. Couple of instagibs later I decided to look it up and there it...

New grandmasters added to the hall of the grandmasters. Get hype?

I thought it was weird as hell that Sunday morning I sold a ton of items right after I logged in, practically getting spammed with tells, stuff that had been listed the previous day or two.

Lol, my EXACT story. My first character sits right now still at level 75 with probably a 4 link main skill and about 6k dps. I could get through maps and then die over and over to bosses I couldn’t do any real dmg to. Starting over and following a well written guide fixed me right up and is...

I got that basic impression about melee in general which blows since I tend to play melee almost exclusively. I’ll just have to eat the price of the boss fight learning curve instead of being able to place two totems that one shot the boss or whatever other op shit I’ve seen.

I’m skewed towards the tank end of things, playing a jugg and not a Crit build. Dps isnt awful or anything, just over a mil, but it’s still not a facetanker. The champion is instant leech so I can be more terrible and as long as I don’t get one shot I won’t die. Both builds are pretty well...

Yeah it’s the wasting the map issue. It’s not like I can’t afford to buy maps but it irritates me to no end to do so, don’t know why. I’ll probably use the double strike champion to get it done.Tectonic is more fun as a build but doesn’t have the horsepower of double strike nor the forgiveness...

I finally got my first tier 16 map and I figure it’s time to work to killing shaper. Pit of the chimera is the map I got so I watched the video of a guy playing the tec slam build I’m using do the fight. Looks like pure aids. The actual shaper fight honestly looks easier to me.

I just jump shit with it, I use a quicksilver for move speed. That's of course useless on bosses so I'm going to have to switch out the gems for it. The only time I miss whirling blades aside from boss fights is mapping in a group with the 1,000,000% run speed screen clearers where a flask...

I only use it because I can jump gaps and ledges and when I was whirling blades it was majorly annoying to not be able to do that. If they'd up the frequency of acceleration shrines that would be damn nice.

I did red elder last night and that shit took me all 6 portals. Next time will be easier and two of my deaths were total bs, one was an insta zone in one shot but I'm not even close to doing uber yet. I'm too fucking impatient for all the dodging. Just when I think it feels like I can stop and...

I chisel, alch and sacrfice frag all my shit and get nothing then a magic map with low qual will drop and I'll just run it and get four fucking maps. I know it's all playing averages but most of the time I'm happy to just recover my alch in the map. I've at least gotten over the t10 hump though...

I spammed t9 and 10 maps plus whatever 11 and 12s dropped til I hit 93. Probably not the fastest way to do it but it was safe and those tiers can be cleared fast with little worry of dying. EQ death penalty had nothing on this game.

Get a devotos or starkonjas.

This shit will never continue to play out this way but I just pulled another 20 ex out of lab.

So should I stop chasing the azurite and currency rooms and just take the most vertical path down no matter what?

6-8 mins I’d guess, shrine placement matters a bit, each new instance can add or shave a little time because of it. Delving doesn’t seem particularly faster to me but I’ve still not done a lot of it yet, I’ve only gotten to lvl 80. That’s also what I’d consider decent luck doing labs, not great...

Seems like a lot of it is spend currency to make it too. Good corruptions can take a low value item and make it worth multiple exalts. That can be hard for mere mortals to stomach as they just end up with locked items. Crafting rares, watch some you tube videos for some stomach churning shit as...

Admittedly, luck. Got a tornado shot enchant and no hyperbole, it sold in about 60 seconds for 21 ex so I probably lost a few more ex right there. It might take a long ass time to ever happen again but even if I only pull out 1ex for an hour or two it’s more money than I’d have made otherwise...

On good days lab is not really that annoying. I made 25ex off of 20 or so offerings the other day. The run was short with all shrines and Argus along the path. The next two days were total shit and not worth it but the one that’s up today is quick and I’ll run it again. Most days though, yeah...

I’ll have to dig a little more to figure out wtf is up with this build. I read a bit, watched a video and still don’t quite understand it. Probably makes more sense as you play it but the whole summon, recall, interaction is not intuitive to me having never used a mechanic like that. I am shit...

Considering trying out a screen clearing build now that I have some exalts to burn. The double strike champ is great but I’m at a gear point where I need to spend exalts on jewels or crazy corruptions to squeeze more out of it. Ideally something that blitzes maps, I don’t really care about...

I’m not deep in delve at all. I ran through the full sulphite bar like maybe 3 or 4 times. I started the game right around the time betrayal launched so most of my time early on was spent just running around learning basic stuff and figuring out the atlas and all that so things like delve got...

I messed around in delves and didn’t care for it much but I’ll just have to start doing it. I’ve done some labs but the helm enchant rng is shit and it’s just an annoying place overall and I’ll probably make a Jugg next that can ignore traps to use all the offerings I’ve got sitting in stash. I...

I would but I’m in standard and it seems I’m probably the only one here who is.

I've been busted all the way down to t9 maps now. Its gotten to the point that Im chiseling, alching and putting fragments in every shitty t9 map I get and nothing is dropping. My atlas bonus is 130 or so and isn't going up any time soon with this kind of luck. Combined with the fact that noting...

I’m playing the champion version and it’s pretty nuts. One swing and packs just insta gib, the more mobs the better. Quick kills on bosses too. Really good build for noobs like me getting used to the game since the instant leech variation is forgiving of sloppy play. I’ve only managed to find...

Having fun so far but past level 90 shit is mildly stressful with exp loss. My main complaints are the floor not having to be fucking death all the time AFTER stuff has already been killed(camoflauged caustic can suck it)That’s 75% of all my deaths in the game, usually distracted by loot or...
