Was wondering why my last 12 win warlock faced paladins 5 out the last 6 games. Thought Druid might have been top.

Gen build seems to be up there with Uliana's based on leaderboards, but I don't think it uses Inna's. 2pc Raiment at least.

I want to say they fixed that Tenks, checking the tooltip with a Ruby equipped would confirm. But I'm almost certain that more XP != more grift progress.

Yeah, your cubed weapon is working against you there. That's why I like 6 Wastes for running bounties. Too much inconsistency in density and elites to do a IK based build.

I'm not seeing how Frenzy helps with bounties. Did you have the run speed rune? Even then, it's debatable. Falter is for group play in high grifts where the targets will be taking lots of sustained damage and the cooldown on TS won't be a factor.

Bloodshed is pretty nice, why wouldn't you use it? Keep in mind that Strongarms is DIBS, it likely won't be a straight 30% increase. HoTA is more dangerous, yes, but has a couple things to compensate for that. LpF(yes, it's actually useful here) + 2+ APS mean you can gain at least 200k...

Tenks: If you're going to use rend, a 2H is pretty much required since rend ignore any IAS benefits. I've seen some weird builds using rend with 2pc wastes and 6pc ik, but even in your best case scenario(4 stacks via Lamentation and Bloodbath) you're still only dealing 5280% WD per second...

Least I got charge.

Depends on what you're doing, honestly. If you're grouping for grifts, hammer barbs are best. If you're grouping for rifts, WW or hammer work. For bounties, though, WW is best because there just aren't enough packed elites to keep In Geom up most of the time(for quick repeated charges)...

25% base 40% Sprint 40% Chilanik's Chain(100% uptime easily with OroTZ) 30% BK2 20% WoTB 25% Wreath 180% total Furious Charge counts for something, but not sure how to quantify it. Take a look at the WW barb in my sig, it's the fastest mindless farming spec for barbs. I'll admit...

You must group with some pretty slow barbs.

Fair enough, hadn't considered exclusive mats.

I still don't get why anyone would use the 'reforge legendary' recipe. Let's say I want an ancient GoJ and I have a garbage duplicate already laying around. I can either spend 5x bounty mats and 50x souls or 250 parts/dust/crystals and 125 breaths(1/5 chance to get a gavel from rare ->...

Shift L in game brings up the leaderboards, probably the best way to objectively compare classes and builds. The website seems to lag behind: Barbarian Greater Rift - Rankings - Diablo III Maybe it's only updated when they do maintenance.

No?

I think Broken Promises has an ICD. Small, but enough to ruin it.

Streamer making up bullshit numbers for views.

Unity is solo only, so not sure why you brought up zdps as a reason to not use one. Same thing for defensive gem "synergies"(what?).

Deathwing - Community - Diablo III It hasn't updated in a day, I replaced Birthright with Smash. And I'm missing a decent Ancient Fury shoulders, which would let me cube a strong arms. Esoteric can be changed for a Taeguk and there's flexibility on passives. Templar is kinda nice...

FnR is a bit clunky with WoTW since you have to interrupt WWing to do it, which also drops your 40% DR. It's the same reason a lot of wastes builds don't even have rend on their bar. When you start needing that 40% DR at all time, PoC will probably be a better belt.

Keep your IK pieces while you're at it. IK6 + Gavel seems to be better that WoTW6 + BK2. Top of the non-seasonal leaderboard is dominated by them and I'd like to think at least one poopsocker would have done a higher grift with WoTW6 if he could. Also, HoTA is more fun. WW is so god damn...

Ranslor's folly? What's the ICD on it?

I know interviews started this tangent but that example was not meant that way. That would indeed be a stupid question. It was meant to gauge proficiency while working a job. Should you know that example after 2 years? 4 years? I have no idea but I hate running across that kind of shit...

Did you know the Borland 6 C++ compiler will return true for this? if(0 + 1 > 0 + 1) Kind of obscure, but it's one I ran into on my previous job. Do you know what optimizations your compilers makes behind the scenes? Corner cases and weird stuff that only comes up once in a while, but...

The commute joke was a reference to what people have to (typically)sacrifice in order to job hop. I like Ithaca so far, I have a 10 minute commute from the "outskirts" to downtown. But not a whole lot of software competition, so salary when adjusted for cost of living is probably a bit deflated.

Consultant looking for a salaried position. Don't think he's settling down, he's been working since I was born. Just because something is the norm doesn't mean I have to like it. I would rather work for people I can trust and trust me in return. Maybe that's too idealistic, idk. But it's...

Define stagnant. I just interviewed a guy with a 4 page resume with most jobs lasting 9 months to almost 2 years. Why should I recommend this guy to my boss if he's just going to up and leave in a couple years? Most technical jobs take that amount of time to get proficient, let alone expert.

Rainment + EP items seem like a weird combination. Guess I haven't kept up with monks, is that really the top end gearing for them now?

Please don't deep fry while shitfaced.

Are you sure you put shit in?

Main stat is only better than elemental if you have a lot of different damage sources, a lot of elemental% stat already, the amulet is ancient, and you have some good main stat multipliers. Only then. AD is not FoTM, more like they fixed AD this patch and it's now perform, mostly, how it...

Put shit in it and get shit out of it.

Have you done this before? A friend tried slow-cooking a loin(may have even been a tenderloin) in the same manner you do a shoulder. It was complete shit because there's very little connective tissue to convert to gelatin in those muscles.

Popovers, for dinner?

None of those are mutually exclusive.

Do you *want* one of the elemental absorb ones? Those are only good for fishing extremely high level grifts. BTW, Esoteric Alteration, once it reaches 25% DR, starts out-leveling the damage increase from grifts. It's your all-in-one elemental absorber. derp...ignore comment about Esoteric...

You mean the nagelring that was patched in 2.2? Yeah, it's not getting nerfed. Try some higher rifts and reevaluate.

Something tells me that you(and most people in this forum) are not ones that can deal being without work for a while even if it's still financially beneficial in the long run.

Heh, it's been my experience that CyberCoders are basically scalpers. I mean, shame on the original company for not advertising well enough. If I find your job posting only through a recruiter that you aren't directly working with, that's your fault. I got my current job through them, so...
