    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    With the nerf to Fires of Heaven coming and the buff to other stuff, it's very unlikely FoH will be ever worth using without the flail. That is if the nerf does go live and shit, don't know that for sure, but the wrath efficiency goes down the toilet at 800ish% for 40wrath instead of 1000%...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Vampire bats is free, that's all there is to it really, you can spam it with pierce the veil and no mana regen gear/talents(granted it sucks if you face a bunch of mobs who keep doing pulls/knockbacks). It's not meant to be compared to other spenders, most of which are gonna do a fuckton more...

    It's the class set pieces, including the old 60 sets which were made torment only just before RoS went live. This is Inna/Natalya/IK/Tal Rasha/Zunimassa as well as the newer sets Firebird/Vyr/Marauder/Akkan and whatever the others are I don't know all the names. Any 4-6 set that has class...

    "Difficulty level has no impact on Horadric Cache loot. We recently hotfixed an issue where gems from Caches were erroneously being impacted by difficulty level, but this was not intended." "To clarify: Horadric Caches can drop any type of Legendary (regular or Bounty-exclusive) EXCEPT those...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Caches are completely unaffected by difficulty. They also do not drop torment only legendaries(followers, potions and class sets). Used to be the gems in them were affected by it but the rest was never affected to begin with. Your chance for normal legendaries is fairly low but does exist...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Well there might be changes that aren't in the tooltips which is why it's probably better to wait for full patch notes. I think it's a good series of changes, even though yes there's a bunch of nerfs in there too, including the FoH nerf which is pretty bad, but for all we know they might also...

    Fires of Heaven has no cooldown. It's the rune that makes Heaven's Fury into a spender.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Well it's not full notes, just datamined changes and might not be full changes. The buffs look fairly crazy in values though, interesting they're only hitting those skills but definitely interesting move. Like some shit went from really pathetic to "that might be really fucking good". Phalanx...

    Level 70 white shield, I've seen a few. And Nutron the Crusader one is good, it reduces the cost of Shield Bash by half, making it extremely wrath efficient and a very good spender, probably the best besides 3x Fires of Heaven when you have the legendary flail. That is, whenever they decide...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Oh right forgot about that. Guess then you run 2monks? Might not be worth it though. And forgot WD in my original post, obviously you'd want to run one with grave injustice(and enough globe range to get it to work on everything) so you can spam hysteria and slam dance totem, that's crazy damage...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I'd probably gamble rings, you can gamble better rares and some of the legendary rings are insanely strong like stone of jordan. Generally I'd say weapon but for a rare it's pretty good, still that's another decent gamble, you can find a 2700-2800DPS 2H with 1100str and that'll be quite a boost...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    That's the downside of playing lower difficulties, there's no challenge so anything with higher health than usual is just tedious. Rift bosses have boss hp, so yeah they're pretty boring. No idea how you'd take 4mins to beat a T1 boss with 750k DPS though. Are you a crusader? Even then you...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    More xp for paragon, more drops, it makes sense if you were able to farm it at well, farm speed, which is unlikely. Maybe in a group setting though, using a lot of synergy stuff like monk with Unity+Mantra of Conviction and DH with high cdr(via shrine gloves) for "perma" wolf+marked for death to...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Well probably do it at a good speed. You can generally do 3-4torments higher if you don't mind killing slow as shit and dying every 2mins but most people don't care about that. As for elemental damage, it's multiplicative with your normal damage, and then skill damage is also...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    The 2 hours figure isn't an official one, it's what players decided it probably was. The exact mechanics are unknown, however it does exist and was confirmed, basically after some time without a drop, it increases your chances of getting a drop. It's time "in combat" with supposedly code to make...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Maximus has one of the best proc in the game, I'd say second only to shard of hate due to derp coding. Shit does ridiculous damage. I think it's probably the only 2H you'd use even on a monk or a barb, with monk also having the tempest rush daibo for that specific build and you would only use it...

    Hearthstone

    You posted in the wrong thread, unless you're asking for an open beta for the ipad version. This is already released. Sounds like you meant to post in HotS thread though and the answer to that would be no, not soon. Probably 2-3months before it goes open beta.

    I don't really think he makes a good point. I do agree that you don't have the primaries to get both AR and vit on most gear(I think only the belt/legs and on both you could get a builder %). I do agree that you'll probably favor vit. But at the same time, you're also not taking +health %, not...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Hake, if disintegrate was easy to run, you wouldn't be using the cost reduction rune on Ray of Frost to make it cost almost half as much as Disintegrate. You can run ray of frost because it has a cost reduction rune AND because you have the legendary that make it not suck, but for the most part...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Yeah it's used on DH too, just having range is good enough, you can also run the dodge passive if you want(increases dodge until you dodge) and smokescreen can also be used. With it and Cindercoat, Cluster Arrow becomes ridiculously easy to sustain.

    Right that's why I said less often, I have been watching some lol stuff so I know they play during the week too but they don't always play all day or every day and when they don't you'll see the high viewer count streams from pro players, but if there's a tournament going on no one streams...

    There isn't any CTF. You destroy the enemy base to win, similar to every game in the genre. Haven't played Smite since beta but was like that too last time I checked. There are secondary objectives on the map which let you destroy the base, but that's about it. Mostly you collect skulls to...

    I've gotten almost every set plans, about 9 pieces of blackthorne(4 of them are belts), 2 of the skeleton rings, 1 traveller something and one danetta xbow(which was the one I had as a lvl 60 version, so that was kinda nice even though since the other one is 67 the set is still unusable for...

    Pretty sure LoL Pros are bound by contract to not stream during the official tournaments, so you're never going to see a high pro stream during LCS streams. Out of the weekends though when it's less often that there's a LCS stream, you'll see people like Nightblue and Bjorgsen(spelling) getting...

    Yeah some slots are awful to roll. Rolling a crusader shield just right is a fucking pain too cause it can roll EVERYTHING, same for quivers or wiz/WD offhands.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Meh it just starts at a higher price, but it doesn't increase. When you reroll rings/amulets, you pay like 300k every reroll for the gem but the reroll itself doesn't have a cost so it never gets to 5millions per reroll like it can if you're rerolling another slot. So it sucks if you're lucky...

    DOTA 2

    Been done quite a few times already, other day it was a centaur mid dropping them between last hits on lane creeps, forgot which teams. It's definitely more efficient, at the same time if some guy picked an invis rune and runs into you, you lose 1k gold. Or if it's warded and some guy blinks...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Sounds like a good change, they're just not nerfing everything to shit until rifts become a decent alternative but also buffing rifts. Makes it so running rifts is more efficient than chaining bounties on whatever too, so that's good. I assume 25% is 25% more of whatever chance to find a leg you...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Everyone can do it, it's just not particularily efficient. Crusader isn't so bad though since you reset the game after each run, and the run is short. Steed with 3secs rune, Akkarat Champion with 20secs speed rune and Law of Hope with the Wings of Heaven or whatever rune and Long Arm of the Law...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Belial is still in, I had it enrage on my Crusader a couple of times when I was doing bounties early on, I doubt they removed any of the old ones. They didn't add any on the new content though, the first T6 hardcore malthael kill was done like last week, it was a super tank barb that took 3hours...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    They're bugged and some shrines still last 60mins. That and shard of hate are probably getting nerfed whenever they patch(shard of hate just getting like a 1-2secs cooldown or some shit). Even at 10mins the shrine gloves are pretty OP, mostly the ressource shrine is what breaks them, it gives...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    There's a bunch of legendaries which are worth using even with shit stats or not great stats, Moonlight Ward is apparently one, Pox Faulds are really good too, the shoulders that proc fan of knives are nice if you're getting hit then weapons like Maximus or that 2H mace that procs lightning when...
  33. Pyros

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    No and that's another issue I think with Crusaders, they have SHIT for elemental builds. Basically, if you don't build holy, you have very very limited choices. Bombardment? 5physical runes(yeah even though it's a fucking burning rock). Heaven's Fury? All fucking holy, even though Fist of the...

    It's about as good as Glass Canon or Audacity. It's 10 to 15% depending on your setup(potentially as low as 5% though) without penalties other than fulfilling requirements.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Weapon element doesn't do anything, other than fancy effects on kills with physical skills(but the damage is still converted to physical, or should be, might be bugs). Physical damage is however affected by the %dmg affix on weapons, so for the highest damage possible, a "black" weapon, which is...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Ok thanks that's kinda what I expected but wasn't entirely sure. Haunt is nice for additional single target damage but yeah the mana strain is pretty big. In general I disliked the mana costs on shit even with stacked mana regen(just not looking for it but happened to find gear with like 14 14...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Familiar is fire damage and chain lightning is lightning. You use them enough that they would keep the debuff up most of the time for a 15% increase. Even in a pure elemental build, you'd still get 5% out of it, granted that's not much.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Oh btw WD questions since I'm a bit unclear on mechanics on some stuff. First Wrathful protector, does it proc if you resummon the garg? I haven't bothered trying this one but I see a lot of people with it in their build and unless it reset when you resummon, it seems all kinds of awful due to...

    Right was just stating base stats, it can be slotted for lower cd which I use and is great, or for pulling mobs to you which is also great but sadly can't use both and I'd rather just condemn twice in a row when I hit a big pack with elites mixed in than pull a few stragglers into the aoe.
