    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I'm messing around with it to change my mindset a bit but yeah mostly checking it out for ladders preparation. Not that there's too much to see, leveling on hard to 70 is basically boring as shit but pretty much completely risk free. I only had to use one potion at 68 against a waller arcane...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I guess in theory running rifts on normal you could clear them in 3-5minutes with a fast build like strafe DH, tempest rush monk or whirlwind barb with the belt. Still at 3mins each you'd still need 30mins to get 500shards, 50shards per rift, so seems like a bit of an exageration unless you're...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Lost my first HC char earlier, was a DH and was flying through the levels with my socketed marquise ruby, when suddenly, one of these whirlwind fucks in act2 spins and reflects my chakram into my face and I one shot myself. Guess that's one more advantage of cluster, shit doesn't get reflected...

    What do you mean old gems, lvl 60 gems? Cause the RoS gems aren't tradeable.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I wonder if at some point during vanilla development, some guy sat down and thought: "How should we make DHs feel different at low level compared to other classes?" and then some other guy, let's call him Dick McFuckingRetard came in and said "Eh I know, how about we don't give them an aoe until...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Every torment level has a higher chance to drop legendaries than normal-master. Starts at 115% for torment 1 up to whatever the fuck it is, I don't know the numbers exactly but you can find them on diablofans somewhere. That's why assuming you clear it just as fast, it's better to do T3 or T4...

    That's where the new apprentice of Hadrig is, is he there in your town? Should be standing by the forge and has some text stuff and Hadrig himself has lines referring to him.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Well boss kill speed isn't super important, while DH kill bosses pretty quickly especially if you slot Single Out, a WD could probably kill it twice as fast with the right items and the same paperdoll damage with a pet build and using fetishes+slam dance voodoo totem+wrathful prot gargantuan...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    The smaller shields that split do less damage than the main shield. They only do 333%weapon damage and no block scaling, while the main hits for 340% + 2.5*block chance. The initial hit of shattering throw should do the same damage(assuming you don't have fire% and shit and assuming you don't...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I think watching some people play can be interesting, in some cases. 2 main cases based on actual examples, watching a dota/lol pro play in first person is quite interesting as a non pro, especially when they're the type of players who will try to explain why they're doing what they're doing...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Blessed Shield damage adds more damage than %block. %block is I think 10-12(maybe 11?) so that's like 25-30% weapon damage on the shield, while 15% blessed shield is gonna add 15% of both your current block(say 30% block so 75% weapon damage) and the total weapon dmg which is 340% iirc, so...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    In terms of what the buff adds, I ran a few crude tests to check it out. On level 1 nephalem, you do about 25%weapon damage per hit as a 100%proc(it shows a 2nd number popup and can crit individually). On level 2, you sometimes create a chain that does 25% weapon damage to 3-4targets or so. On...

    The issue with cindercoat isn't the +fire, which is nice but to be honest not really unique and a bunch of other elements also get the same skill % from other slots, the issue is the ressource cost reduction which is a unique property only to fire and generally what makes the difference. That...

    Dota2 looks better than hots anyway, so not much to upgrade.

    Heroes of the Storm

    LoL didn't have much more than that iirc but they were adding heroes every 2weeks for a long time. Dota had more but they did the soft launch thing where it was in more or less open beta for many months before it actually launched. I think 40 would be an acceptable amount, maybe even 30...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Well you always lose a bunch of paperdoll DPS going 1H but I think there's some decent stuff about it, mostly the fact you move 15% faster which severely reduces farming time for about everything since well, you do spend a large amount of time running around anyway as well as the passive slot...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Well it depends on your gear obviously, but I feel if you don't have the BiS legendaries for other slots it's probably better to gamble those than weapons. Like you do a fire build? Gamble Andarius/Magefist/Cindercoat/SoJ before you even consider weapons imo. In general since most builds tend to...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I think gambling weapons for a specific one is pretty horrible. Like you need magefist? Gamble gloves, only like 10legendaries possible so you're bound to find the right one. Want a cindercoat on a DH and don't have a monk? Well you gamble out of 2 items pool, so like 20legendaries, still decent...

    You can also say it on guild chat and people can click your name and request invites I think, at least works with friend list not sure about clan list, but yeah it's not too hard.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Well until they fix the bug, damage% is a lot worse than attack speed% on a non "black" weapon, which is a weapon with physical damage only. If they fix it though it'll be better and you can switch back, on the other hand, there's a solid chance they're not fixing it until next week at least...

    Right now using this but I'm still experimenting with shit and I don't have the right gear for everything anyway. Crusader - Game Guide - Diablo III I kinda like the new shattered blessed shield, it's fairly good aoe(was buffed to 333% not 50% like the tooltip says) while being relatively...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    If I cast condemn once, everything is dead. Maybe twice. Popping Akarat to kill a large pack seems pretty overkill considering the cd. Even if it's elites, it's down more often than not and it's certainly not instantly resetting off itself even with charged up unless you're fighting like 3packs...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Guaranteed legendaries might be a bit of a slippery slope in terms of RMT I guess, pay say 30$ to some guy who then runs a a bunch of accounts through rifts until last boss and chain invite you for the kill for your guaranteed legendaries. Something like that. If you get a legendary per rift on...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    There's a crafted 1H mace that can roll 20%fire. Devastator or something. No fire procs I think on 1H, there's 2H with procs but they're like lvl 60 unscaled procs, shit's terrible. A lot of the procs aren't affected by +elemental % dmg anyway, so you might as well use like a thunderfury regardless.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I assume they'll hotfix the DH pet stuff though, since Sharpshooter stacks don't disapear when you don't directly attack, meaning you can have 100%crit chance at all times in a pet build using sentries+marauder set(all companions)+wolf shirt(3wolves). You kinda just run around doing nothing...

    Black Desert

    This one's better, it has more classes: Friend was saying the point of view/camera shit was a special mode and you could turn it off, I sure hope so, I don't mind the point of view but the constant shaking, blurring, zooming makes me think I wouldn't play this shit for more than 5mins in a row.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Well not getting the class sets is a pretty big deal. Not so much when farming bounty bags for specific cache legendaries obviously but when all your legendaries are dropped, you kinda want to do them on torment1 at least. Also you lose out on the double blood shards, which is a large amount per...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Yeah my bad I'm thinking of Akkan 4pc bonus, which reduces costs by 50% for the duration, it's not a rune. I know about the law since I was using that(and long arm of the law) when I was playing FoH. Switched back to nephalem law though, especially since they made it easier to sustain neph3 buff...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    1.5m but there's 4 archers and they hit like 8times each. That's quite a large burst. I find akarat to be pretty much trash myself unless you have the shrine buff(and so the shrine gloves and get lucky to keep finding the right shrines before last one wears off). If you don't have at least...

    Big loot changes coming:Upcoming Loot Hotfixes - Forums - Diablo III Basically, they're nerfing Uniques droprate(manglemaw and such, purple names mobs that spawn all the time due to being quest related) and reducing the amount of chests per map by I assume a fairly large amount(probably go...

    Crone that's what I'm using and I don't have much problems with T1, even though I do die if I get stuck in a bunch of shit with spirit walk down every now and then, but damage is good and single target damage is higher than my crusader too. Pyros - Community - Diablo III Witch Doctor -...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Archers were already pretty good prepatch, but just not that good, like they did about the same damage as heaven's fury but on single target. Since they almost doubled their damage though, they probably do an absurd amount now for a 15secs cooldown, since they're ranged they also don't waste...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Well I don't think cd should be capped, but I also have mixed feelings about pets doing 100+%weapon damage per hit without the cap even though they provide a lot of side advantages in general(such as passive effects, tanking, blocking projectiles and active effects). To me the pets were...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Thorns scale with 1/4 of your main stat bonus, so yeah 6k is gonna do 100k generally, but that was how it was prepatch/preros/prewhatever. There's no bug there. Bracers still suck because they do 1000% of your thorns amount, not the thorns damage, so it's basically always less than thorns itself...
  36. Pyros

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Well it doesn't do anything more than prepatch so not sure what there's to try, and the bracers suck. The hotfixes are live based on the post so Iron Maiden gives 6k thorns(even though the tooltip isn't updated).

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    So after running some numbers it seems the reflective rune is indeed bugged more or less like I thought it was, instead of applying 1/4 of your str bonus to your thorns damage, when you activate it, it applies 100%of your str bonus, and also lets it crit treating it as "normal" damage instead of...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    That's my understanding yeah, similar to how they get most of the other stats. As Delly said, this makes pet builds extremely strong but just pets in general strong, wolf is even better now for example. But yeah the WD full legendary pet build is most likely the safest and still a relatively...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    You probably don't want to pug either, since it also kills teammates. Granted there's a good chance they kill themselves at the same time but with proper positionning and defensive measures, I think you'd be able to kill melees easily enough with a crusader on HC. There's a bunch of...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Just reroll them, if you don't have the mats to reroll legendaries yet, reroll your boots. Once you hit high enough in paragon you don't even need any movespeed at all, just put all your paragon points in movespeed and done. If the legendaries are better it doesn't really matter though, you...
