Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

You get so many now and they are so faceroll easy it's honestly not a big deal. The 'doubke mats for all caches' change was the greatest change in Diablo history.

As far as diablo free on Xbox, playing an ARPG on a controller is aids times 9/11. Who the fuck would choose to do that?

Consoles get a dodge button.

T16 regular rift drops 3-8 keys depending on your luck. When the amount of gold you receive only covers the cost to empower one of those it does become a problem. But if they put in T21 to get more gold then you would get even more bounty mats, probably 32 or 34 per run, which would outpace FS even faster. So solving one problem makes another worse.

My current mats stockpile is 11K death's breaths, 4500 forgotten souls, 9K-15K of regular mats. My whole season to date gives enough FS for 90 reforges which is only 21 bounty runs. On average that's 9 ancient rerolls and it's a crapshoot whether those would have the exact affixes you need.

The only solution that isn't ass requiring insane luck or hundreds of hours of grinding would be an ancient-only reforge that stays ancient.

It was actually great for classes that only use directional attacks. PC/mouse > all for targeted attacks though.

I like playing D3 more with a controller. Aiming isn't as bad as you would think.

I tried it for a while when I had two broken legs and couldn't move for 2 months. I uninstalled the diablo demo after like an hour.

Ya. My cpu/gpu aren't that great so I tend to get games either on my PS5 or Switch normally.

After tons of reforges this is what i got for gloves, unless i want to start going for an ancient quiver or F+R it's still pray for better Ethereal now

It's time for a new league gents, enough with the D2R non sense!

So... ethereal gems for helm and weapons. AKA Dual wield classes OP but no reason to actually play since nothing permanent or meta changing is on PTR

It's too bad that D2R heavily confirmed that D2 was actually vastly superior and way more fun to play than D3. It wasn't just nostalgia.

D3 is just a hollow shell of a game.

TL;DR Helm shards work as follows
Rank 0: First seasonal legendary affix power
Rank 1: All Five affixes you would recieve from the 5 gems - Life% CDR RCR Gold% Xp%
Rank 2: One random affix (i.e. ~1000 main stat or up to 20% reduced melee/ranged attack damage)
Rank 3: Second seasonal legendary affix power

Rank 1 weapon shards follow the same gem mechanic like helms so +300 damage, +150% critical damage, +50% damage against elites, +30,000 LPH, +40,000 Thorns
Rank 2 weapon single affix can be up to +50% Damage, +75% specific element damage, +20% IAS, or +10% CHC

1/3 Helm shards and 2/4 Weapons shards are made for group meta, although one of those 2 weapon shards is usable solo
Soul shards you don't want can be used as level 50/75/100/125 augments based on their rank

None of that looks even remotely as enjoyable to play as the throw-back weapons or follower overhaul were.

S25 starts Friday, Dec 10
Do not complete Challenge rift until season start

Geez, one of those gems is going to be a free +50% move speed for WW/TR/Strafe builds. Enjoy splattering t16 in < 60 seconds

Also, the amount of grammar errors in that preview is silly. Put the shit in MSWord and it'll auto correct for you idiots.
