    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Definitely not optimized. He was easily missing out on ~70% movespeed and was killing shit he didn't need to.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I'm not sure the updated WW set will be as good as IK for progression, but IK might get nerfed. The Insanity rune wasn't applying at all last night and I was still able to clear a 47 grift with regular weapons. But, the WW set looks pretty good for speed farming. It looks enticing for the...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Buffing old legendaries is good and I'm glad they've thought about it. But, I think the old ICD mechanic, which is usually 1/APS, will still ruin a lot these. 600% piercing knife per attack sounds good until you realize you only get one per APS, not one per tick per target like WW might lead...

    Thanks, I missed the official notes. That build I posted above, 2:57 to clear a 38 grift. What? Shutup, I got oneshot on wave 41 by a charged up ghosty dude because I forgot to refresh my wotb. Yay for ~20s cooldowns...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    5 IK + RoRG + Hexing Pants + Bul Kathos looks really strong. Use Skull Grasp for double DPS or Unity for double mitigation. Derp, fuck skull grasp. They didn't nerf Broken Promises. Buffed it, actually! 3 seconds instead of 2-3 seconds. Undocumented, maybe good?

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    PTR patch datamined on diablofans.com. Initial glance, I'd say IK set is even more retarded than before. The only weakness being pets dieing like a bitch on high grifts. Bul Kathos weapons look good too for a WW spender. Though, not sure how to use that "10 fury generation" besides the...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Comes with a free cryptowall! Arcaus, assuming you hit punishment and companion exactly on cooldown and there's no overage, 50% CDR gets you just a shade under 5.5 more hatred per second. Assuming he uses MS, 25 * 50% RCR / 5.5 = 2.27, which is how often, as a minimum and on average, that...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I somewhat disagree about MS for single target. Obviously LfB is better than the rest, but I'm not going to use that for soloing. (360 + 300*2) / 25 = 38.4 (550 + 600*2) / 40 = 43.75 So, it lags a bit behind the best case rocket build. Unless, damage/hatred isn't the right way to...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Haven't tried it myself, but solo Sever-MfD doesn't seem worth it. You give up quite a lot not using bows. Danetta's will be better for speed farming, and you need a RG that spawns adds to progress in grifts. Some people might be ok with that latter example, but that annoys me to no end...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Yeah, I'm not using Loaded for Bear for solo grifts. I personally like the shape of MS, so the arsenal rune makes sense. It's competitively efficient(damage/hatred) compared to the rocket runes of CA. Are DH the only class that haven't been able to ditch their generators? I mean, I guess...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I'm having trouble theorycrafting a roll for the new DH set in progression. It seems great for speed farming because you don't have to lay down turrets upon zone in nor for max damage. But in grift progression, it seems like M6 would be better. 5 turrets out firing your spender is basically a...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Sever had been reviewed, they just didn't do anything about it: Sever Nerf? - Forums - Diablo III It's always been around, only now some people have found a way to semi-reliably abuse it without gimping their DH.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I wonder if there's a point to grift progression as a melee class IF you actually want to play as a melee class. There's something fundamentally wrong if I can clear a grift but the boss's regular melee attacks still one shot me. Would rather play a DH, the class best designed for avoiding...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    The game's drops to content ratio is probably the best it's ever been. Reintroducing trading would decimate it. Or, everyone would get BiS in 10 minutes and get bored. Streamlining bounties -> rifts -> trials -> grifts in some fashion would go a long way to further improving that ratio...

    I may have misread Sabbat's post. I thought he was getting 'wrekt' and I assumed he hadn't completed Raekor's yet.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Don't play that build if you don't have the 4 piece Raekor's bonus. The freeze is vital to survival. Also, ground stomp is not necessary until much higher grifts. Use the stamina rune and charge around like an idiot.

    It was a slight exaggeration upon retrospection. But it was the number I immediately though of, so that at least means it's happened enough times for me to think it common. I'll fully admit I haven't done the math. I like the feel of loot (rarely) popping from chests, elites...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I can clear the entirety of a T6 rift in under that time and I usually have 6 legendaries. Fewer bloodshard, sure, but the value of bloodshards decreases greatly after you've obtained your regular set pieces.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    You guys don't have 100's of grift keys sitting in your stash from doing 100's of rifts from doing 100's of bounties while leveling up? It is a shitty system that reeks of tacked on addition after addition. It could use an overhaul.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Trials need to go away. The inability for a noninsignificant amount time spent on a trial to accurately give you the correct grift level kills the motivation to use grifts as a farming system after T6 becomes trivial. Put trial stone in, pick # up to highest completed, go clear. Poopsockers...

    In 2.2, picking up one item will pick up all items of the same name within the vicinity. So close to autopickup yet not. They still want you to actively click something, so this is as close as it's probably going to get. Though, they were on record at one point that perma WoTB was bad too...

    Patch 2.2.0 Focused Feedback - PTR Feedback - Blizz Tracker - Diablo Fans Would have preferred shoulders because there's fuck all there outside of sets(and Vile Ward if you're that one class/spec). But whatever, bracers didn't have that much competition for barbs.

    Boulder breaker sucks because weapons slots should be for weapons like SoH, Thunderfury, or Odyn Son. Cool procs that might change how your build plays.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Just to point out an exception: Laws of Seph have been retroactively nerfed to about half the live bonus. Also, F+R is quite powerful because the buff is multiplicative with everything, not lumped into the DIBS category. As Tenks said, I'd prefer gearing choices too. Which, if Zodiac...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Been playing around with Zodiac a bit more on the PTR. Will they nerf it? Maybe. I hope not. But, found some "interesting" functionality. The GCD triggered off some spells(i.e.: Battle Rage, Sprint, etc)? Yeah, that will eat a Zodiac proc. So, on one hand, that means spammy WW builds are...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I was thinking the new bracers would partially make up for the lost DR. I could see Zodiac avoiding the nerfbat. It comes with some horrible primary affixes and you have to restrict your build a lot to get some dependable use out of it. 2 short cooldowns or 1 long and 1 short is probably...
