For anyone that likes to abuse broken shit, Bex confirmed that they won't be fixing the Herald cluster notables until next league.


You have to expand the deleted comment. Smartass that asked the question thought he could keep it under wraps. Having trouble linking the precise tree.

If you could have 500% increased damage, what's the best build to graft that onto?

I like scintillating idea especially and storms gift, they're straightforward atleast and i think i like defense perhaps a bit more than you hence mana and es leech. Maybe overshock and what have you would be better but i don't know how to evaluate the shock effect etc, how good would that actually be on a boss?, but i really only dislike a few prefix notables.

This is what i wanted but the notables are placed differently on the large cluster jewel than what pob shows, tried twice and they're both different from pob, so perhaps not random and its impossible to get this layout on the large cluster jewel.. And just showing you can get more crit with this.

You are right, I tend to underbudget my defenses. It's quite common for me to go back to the drawing board when I get into high red tier maps. I'll take a look at this later tonight. Herald build with for medium cluster jewels looks mighty tempting though.

Just started playing this for the first time. Hit Act 4 last night and feel completely fucking lost... there is so much to do and understand. Anything I should be critically aware of other than find a build and get a filter, which I have done already?

Was thinking about starting. Trade macro is totally dead now just price lookup? I used to show the colors on sockets since I'm colorblind.

Anyway I haven't followed th league was sick and such. What is working for a build type this league. I need something super easy, no need to push the end game in the least. My brain is still lagging behind some.

Mines are seriously good, just get arc for clear with ball lightning for bosses or just ball lightning alone and you'll wreck the story and probably be in red maps in a couple of days.

Make sure your resistances are capped, you lose 30% each time you kill kitava in act 5 and 10. What build are you playing? If we know what you're playing we might be able to help out.

Went with the King of all Necros build since I enjoy pet builds; long time WoW Lock And Diablo 3 WD. I’m 43 right now and just opened the mines. Gear upgrade path isn’t super clear but I don’t think it matters much until I get to the end of the acts, at least that’s my assumption.

I don't know that build specifically but i assume is zombies or skellies. Anyways it's fortunate that you're into minions, it's probably one of if not the one most newbie friendly playstyles. And theres probably not a whole lot of ways to go wrong. They've been super OP the last few leagues and even if they got nerfed a bit this league they should still be fine i think.

Keep resistances as high as you can. Maximum HP is most important stat otherwise, usually.

Don't be afraid to put on a weaker piece of gear if it give you the gem links you need.

LOL, totally forgot about that shit. I thought I was all good, but turns out I was mapping an entire day on 50% cold rezz, wondering why the fuck all of a sudden was I getting frozen and taking big dmg. Then I was buying a piece of jewlery and checked and was WTF?

Also can someone check my shit im wondering why so little HP and defense. Just please check my shit and tell me what im doing wrong pls... Most of it is me going from experience but I did look up the latest gem links and shit like that...

You can path 4 points to take soul of steel which is really great defensively. You should run cwdt level 20 with molten shell and steelskin and extended duration (all 20) as you'll be playing armour no doubt.

You could do leap slam + blood magic + faster attacks + endurance charge on melee stun so you can jump into packs and get endurance charges when you do some dps.

Besides your uniques the rest of your gear looks close in quality to what someone mightve had after act 10 on league start, it should be good enough for white maps but perhaps not delirium. Besides your gloves and belt which are decent (they have life and resists) it shouldnt be hard at all to buy something better for your other rare pieces (get life!).

I don't know if you have more skills thats not in the pob but if not.

I would assume you have precision? otherwise your hit chance is bad and resolute techique instead of crit nodes could be interesting for you, atleast untill you get through uber lab and get Worthy foe.

Dread banner, flesh and stone, blood and sand, pride are also good but you cant fit everything. And yea get cwdt molten shell + a curse. And a granit flask (lions roar if you can afford it) to boost your molten shell.

Had this idea the other night of running around with two Obliteration wands, and an Occultist using Blooming... but with Arc as my main skill. Just sounds really fun to a noob. Could that work if the goal was to simply get map completion, not worried about Sirus or Simulacrum.
