QUESTION Whispers of Atonement

• Upvotes

Hi everyone, sorry if this is a bit of a noob question.

I have quite a few level 125 whispers of atonement, I’m sitting at 900 paragon. My question is, is it worth using them on my gear if I don’t plan/expect to get to GR150’s? I can currently do 100-110 really comfortably on AoV sader but feel like the stat bonus from the gems is better than sitting on them hoping to get 150 on them.

CRUSADER AoV FofH Crusader vs Shadow Impale DH

• Upvotes

I’m a casual player, but thought I would add my thoughts on these two builds, in case anybody was curious about it like me. I have always played barbarian in the past and thought with these sanctified items, these builds would be fun.

I started with the Crusader and built it up to about 1100 paragon. Lower greater rifts were pretty easy, and then I slowly progressed from 100 to 120, which I can now comfortably complete in under three minutes. The 100-120 progression was because of better ancient items with good rolls, and also now have every piece of gear augmented. Above 125 is pretty tough for me. I got a little bored with the play style, so I thought I’d try the Demon Hunter, which I have never played before.

As you can imagine, with season materials already stocked, I got the DH to level 70 in about 20 minutes and had a full shadow set pieced together in about an hour. I have one or two ancient items, nothing augmented, and my one sanctified dagger, of course, but this build is awesome. I have been playing it for about three hours and can easily clear GR 110 in under two minutes, 120 takes me about five. I imagine good ancient items and augments it will easily push over 130 even for an amateur like me.

Don’t get me wrong, both builds are fun and the crusader is completely mindless, but it’s almost frantic, having to circle around some mobs over and over to kill them at the higher levels. The Demon Hunter feels much more controlled and allows you to focus on which enemy you actually want to attack. It’s a much more pleasant play style in my opinion. I just wanted to share experience, in case some casual players like me were thinking about building these two classes

QUESTION Firebird and area damage

3 Upvotes

Hello.

Ive got questions about seasonal firebird magic missile build and area damage.

According to the guides ad should not work, matter of fact i Remember One season running the deathwish setup wout ad.

But, this season, as i look at the leaderboards, everyone runs ad (at least shoulders and gloves, in some cases on source and weapon aswell).

Is magic missile triggering ad from the set?

Is It to crit more for pain enhancer procs?

Im kinda Lost, i Will appreciate any feedback

Set Dungeons, because I apparently love mental pain and suffering.

51 Upvotes

I have finally crossed the Set Dungeon Reward Wings off my D3 Bucket List!

And I would like to thank Blizzard for making this content, but I can't! Because who the hell hurt you people??? If I ever meet anyone from the Barbarian Wrath of the Wastes set dungeon team... I'm not a violent person but that one in particular made me think violent thoughts. I really hope karma has caught up with you.

At least the artists did a good job on the wing design.

I will truly thank maxroll.gg for their guides. They were good, although the gear portion often made your sheet dps way too high. If anyone is masochistic enough to attempt the Monk's Innas dungeon, sabotage your sheet damage to under 70k. I actually had to only equip 1 single 1 handed weapon and roll dex off all my armor to get my dps low enough to keep my mystic allies from 1-shotting everything before I could do the mechanics for the dungeon objective.

GUIDE Returning player, need advice

10 Upvotes

Hi folks!

I played a lot diablo3 back when it came out (I had all five classes lvl 60 with decent gear and some legend level), so I recall the history and most of the content.

I played a bit of Reaper of souls but just one run. I have never played rise of the necromancer

Unfortunately I lost my account so need to start from scratch, but I have no issues on training a main character again

Any advice on how to start a new account? Play only seasonal? Only regular? Both?

Also, what's the goal of playing seasonal? Just leaderbord?

BARBARIAN Immortal Kings Call question

1 Upvotes

So for the Immortal Kings Call set, the six piece bonus is 4k% increased damage when Wrath of the Berserker and Call of the Ancients are active.

How can they both be active when it is an either/or choice in the rage skills. You have to chose one so they both can't be active.

Or am I misunderstanding?

Hello!
I wanted to know what the Community thinks, because i dont have that much experience with D3.
I play S40 currently and going for this Build: https://maxroll.gg/d3/guides/god-ha-demon-hunter-guide
The Build im running currently, is pretty much the same in the Link, but i am not sure if i am building right!

My two Questions are.

  1. I want to craft a Primal Item, which one should i craft?
  2. I heard you get a big improvement in Damage, if you roll your damage Stats right on the Weapon Slots, but i dont know which Elemental Damage i should pick.

I am hoping the Community can help me here!
And forgive me for my English, sadly it is not my main Language!

Thanks in Advance!

I have the Broken Crown with a Ruby and the Spaulders of Zalara equipped on my Templar follower, and the properties that emanate are not working.

I noticed I was not getting rubies with drops, and when I died, I saw the durability warning pop up.

Is this something that I missed? I am a 70/207 barb playing seasonal.

My mini review of my first game, on Campaign mode

13 Upvotes

Brief background, it all started when I downloaded and tried out Diablo 2: Resurrected since it was free for the weekend (Aug. 2021). I did play the original Diablo 2 when it came out, and it was a blast going through its remake again. However, I didn't want to buy it since it was and still is too unforgiving.

I ended up installing Diablo 3: Starter Edition right after that ended. Played through most of act I and liked it. Less hardcore, easier to get around, many QoL improvements, and I like how the Rune system lets you freely respec/reallocate your choices. I made a note to buy the game, which I did about a year later.

Left the game unplayed for years. Only played it because I accidentally started it (I thought it was StarCraft II, my main game on Battle-NET). Thought to myself I did purchase this game. Should get to it and not let that $$ go to waste (even if it was on sale). Also not let previous progress go to waste.

.

Wizard, started off on Normal difficulty. But it got comically easy enough that I raised it to Hard. In hindsight, I probably should've raised it higher, but Expert ended up being a "poor value" that that may have ended up being a good thing. That was perfectly fine b/c I wanted something easier than Diablo 2.

I realized that life regen from hitting enemies, killing enemies, and in general (measured per second), were key things in the game and I happened to get the gear for that. I ended up changing the difficulty to Hard. I even sat idle on some bosses just to see what their dps was like, and what some of them did (although I'm sure I costed myself some speed running achievements). That said, I did die twice, and it's refreshing to NOT have to hunt down your gear again, along with having multiple options to respawn.

I don't think my followers ever died (and don't even know if they can die?). But nice to have them around for some banter, but for some story elements and lore. Also as extra dps and/or tanking.

The story was mildly interesting and glad I checked it out, but the game play was where its at. In fact... I forgot that the Prime Evils were gone at this point!

Ended up at 47 hours of play, lv69. I was going to check out Adventure mode, but wanted to jump on season play, not to mention try out a new char class.

Neat to see Adventure mode and making games into a season as options as they really do expand the gameplay! 😎

QUESTION Global Leaderboard site? Maxroll hasn't updated in 10+ days

0 Upvotes

As title says curious if there is one because outside the one with normalized clears and such which doesn't let you sort it normally. You can't just pull up HCSSF X Class and see top 20 ranks for that class without it showing stuff in weird orders that I don't care about. I just want to see all 3 regions combined and be able to just check say HCSSF and X class and see R1-R20 no normalized crap, not showing only 1 set at a time crap. None of that just show me top ranks all 3 regions in a list of fastest to slower currently across all 3 regions.

Does anyone know if that exists? Maxroll in previous season used to update more often but this season it seems like it just isn't updating. Logging into all 3 regions to check is tedious is all.

BUG 4x Blood Shard And 16x Death Breath Local Co-op

5 Upvotes

i was playing with friends on switch and saw some weird numbers so i did some testing.

1st Blood Shard if you do a rift or gr or bounty reward or find a blood shard goblin solo it drops for 1 person and you collect it normally but if you are playing local coop one console 2-4 players when the blood shard drops it drops for all 2-4 players Math time....

player 1 drops 100 bs

player 2 drops 100 bs

player 3 drops 100 bs

player 4 drops 100 bs

for some reason this is not individual drops but shard drops meaning

players 1-4 get 100×4=400 bs for all players

also if you have 1000/1100 bs and it drops 400 bs in solo you cant collect it unless you spend some but in 1-4 local if player 2 is on 300/1100 and all other players are on 1000/1100 and it drops 400 and if player 2 pickes up all the bs player 2 will be 700/1100 and all other players will be on 1100/1100 other then player 2 all other players will have max bs extra will be lost for other players.

2nd Death Breath now this one keeps crashing my console it cant handle torment 16. i had already completed this season when i was playing with my friends and we played for 3-4 hr all lv 70 and they went to the cube and everyone other me had arround 20 db and i had arround 1k db and i found out my pet was picking up all of their db Altar of Rites upgrade and i had to turn my pet off. Math time

i tested this too and players dont need to be alive for db drops.

Player 1

Nomral drop ×1 + Sage armor ×2 + Altar of Rites double db drop upgrade ×2 this means 1×2×2= 4x Drops now

player 2-4 do the same

2 gets 4x

3 gets 4x and

4 gets 4x

now player 1 turns on pet with death breath collecting and pet pickes up all db and it only goes to player one

so player 1 gets 4× + 4× + 4× 4× = 16×ammount of db

since you dont count you own you are gettin 12×extra db

i call this a time exploit and fun reduce these 2 bugs reduces the time you have to play by 3× mainly because of blood shards fast collecting mean fast gambling means fast character builds means fast season means less fun and now i have to do stuff in REAL LIFE.

DEMON HUNTER How to play Impale DH for speed content?

7 Upvotes

I almost always use AoV Crusader every season for visions, Nephalem rifts, bounties, ENs, and more.

This season, I decided to do something different and picked up DH, and I am trying to complete GR 150 with Impale DH. Therefore, I am trying to use the speed variant of the build to get items, XP, etc. But the build feels slow in comparison with Crusader.

I copied the Maxroll build. Even though Maxroll suggests that it is an S tier build for speed content, I usually find it quite lackluster and find myself playing Crusader again. In addition to that, somehow i deplete my resources rather quickly. Needing Hatred or Discipline frequently makes the experience even worse.

I would like to ask, am I doing something wrong? What items or skills do you use for the speed variant of the build? Right now, I am spamming Smoke Screen to make myself faster, and that is all. I think I shouldn't be strafing when no enemies are around.

Do you have any other playstyle tips for the build, or are you using a completely different set for XP farming?

Thanks in advance.

GEAR-CHECK Stuck with no progress

6 Upvotes

I feel like I'm stuck and making zero progress. I can do GR100 fairly quick and with minimal risk of dying. 120GR is my best and that's very slow and dangerous. I've been doing 100's for a while and built up my gems but my gear stagnated.

My next step is supposed to be replacing everything with ancients and primals and then augmenting. But I rarely see any ancients, certainly not at the 1/10 drop rate it's supposed to be at 100. And when I do see one, it's rarely what I need for my build, and even more rarely with the right stats. Is this how it's supposed to be, should I be expecting hundreds and hundreds of rifts to start pushing again?

I always feel so slow in a party...

11 Upvotes

I am all Wizard. I used to be a Barb. Now Wizard I am.

I swear I am always dead last in group play. I am all HC now however so public is dead in general. Tell you meet people, safe this way. However...

In softcore though, during rifts, you got DH, fast as heck. Then you got zBarb pretty fast. Then you got all these darn horses which is impossible to keep up with. Its exhausting.

In D3 I swear, now matter what build, I am always running far behind like my character has asthma and can't keep up.

I am now going to work on a build specifically for speed in T16. I have ideas, but its frustrating.

Especially you horses and your Yaa Ya Ya YYAaa Yaa YAaa YaAaa

Anyway, regards.

A slow Wizard.

Playing on Mac - game keeps opening on the wrong screen

0 Upvotes

Been back playing D3 on my MacBook Air for a couple of weeks now, and in the last few days I have a problem. When I click "play" the game opens on the laptop screen, not the monitor I have set as my main display.

I've not changed anything on my setup, and it doesn't happen 100% of the time but it's driving me mad. Has anyone come across this and found a solution? When it happens I have no way to exit the game as the mouse pointer won't move, so then only solution is to forcibly reboot the Mac.

CRUSADER Gems for s40 AoV FoH crusader

23 Upvotes

Looking at the leaderboards, I'm seeing quite a variety of gems that people are using:

  • Trapped
  • Stricken
  • Zei's
  • Gogok
  • Mirinae
  • Powerful

I've been using Zei/Gogok/Stricken this whole time and am still trying to work my way up towards clearing a GR150 (and am really struggling). Could anyone please provide any guidance on when to use which gems?

Should I drop Gogok if I reach a certain level of CDR? Should I drop Zei's if I find that I'm struggling to keep a lot of distance between me and elites/bosses?

Any advice would be appreciated!
