    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...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    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...

    DOTA 2

    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...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    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...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    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...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    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...

    Not mine, just linked it from reddit, but yeah the guy got some pretty crazy rolls. Seems EU was up 3hours before the announced time.

    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...

    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...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    The bracers which give speed when you break shit are really good for efficient farming. Strongarm for monks are obviously really nice(as long as you use cyclone strike) or like if you use the sweep pull rune on crusader. Lacuni are better for pure DPS if you reroll the movespeed into elemental...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Yeah on WD they're pretty meh since by the time globes start dropping, you're generally back up in mana unless you're using a bear build or something. What you should craft kinda depends on what you can craft though. The bracers probably wouldn't hurt regardless but you might want to keep the...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Most people seem to agree that the game is a fuckton better now and more fun, even though there's still issues for long term play and shit. They have ladders coming but who knows when though, they said first major content patch which could be in 2months for all we know. I'd say the game is...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Seems there's another bug with crusader, Shattered Blessed Shield can bounce back to you, people reporting one shotting themselves on HC with it. Good stuff.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Even if you shift cast it will automatically target whatever is considered under your cursor and cast at that particular mob. The hitboxes are smaller than say poe as far as I remember, but it's still annoying, the only way to accurately target is to target far ahead of the mobs and on the...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Only 3 types of gems though, marquise, imperial and royal. Royal and Imperial have flawless. To be honest, I think I like the ring/amulet reroll style better, they should have it for other rerolls too but with lower gems, say normal imperial or marquise. That makes the cost a static value vs an...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I want to play with the new changes but no patch yet for yurop, I'm thinking of a lord commander phalanx physical build on my crusader using a 1H, the one that gives 20%phys, I'm pretty sure I have one that's str based, would compensate for lower damage range by a decent bit and 15% more...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Well from what they're saying they were just bug fixing shit and didn't directly nerf the skill. Ends up as a nerf anyway but that doesn't look too bad to me, and yeah FO wasn't the only viable wizard build to begin with. This means you can't loot quickly then log off and when you relog you're...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I think dual xbows is ok, you get 15%speed from dual wielding so that's not a big difference and you get 130%crit damage from the other gem so that compensates quite a bit, I think you can get disc on 1H xbows too right. Now it's not really that good of a tradeoff when you consider the 15%...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I would drop garg and go piranhas or locust, then drop zombie handler for creeping death for either. I like locust, it's not high damage by any means but it meshes well with the build because it's a spell you cast once then you can channel bats and it'll keep ticking for its damage. Searing...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I think it's just the fact that you know you'll eventually drop the legendary you do need, unlike farming anything else where you know you'll drop random stuff but you have no idea if you're ever going to get the legendary you need, or at least in a reasonable timeframe. You could be farming for...
