Diablo IV (Page 41 of 42)

Seems leveling up this season is super fast. Got to 60 in just a few hours. The whole trick is kill-streaks. Some kill-streaks gave me 2-3 levels at a time. You can also get bloodied gear from not only the meat market but also the obols vendor too. Bloodied unique's are also a thing. The NM Butcher dungeons are no joke. Only in T1 and could not do one of the new NM dungeons. The new NM dungeons are one tier higher than you are and the Butcher was just wrecking me. Soon enough though I am sure they will become trivial. I guess sanctifying gear is no longer a thing, so the crafting feels a little less now. |
Do not do Pit or Tower 100 as there is a bug that will upgrade your blooded sigils to bloodsoaked sigils which are impossible to complete. Once you do a pit/tower 100 the usable sigils will stop dropping. I'm pretty sure this is a bug that will be addressed soon. Diablo 4 - DON'T BRICK YOUR CHARACTER LIKE THIS |

Man, the Obducite drop rate SUCKS this season. Did a tier 3 10 wave Hordes. Collected over a thousand Aether. Traded it all for Obducite. Got less than 200 for the whole run. Seeing like 20 from NMDs. They really booted this. |

I did maybe 5 NM dungeons in a row both normal and bloodied three of which were Strongrooms, and got maybe 250 obducite. |

Rob did a video on experience farming. Turns out the Relentless Butcher in the bloodied hordes gives a stupid amount of exp per kill. The trick is to do it in Torment 2 or 3 so you can rack up the kills. Drink a potion and activate incense for the exp boost. Do a regular NMD with Forgotten Wisdom for the exp multiplier. Run bloodied IH and focus on killing the relentless butcher when he spawns. The faster you nuke him, the faster he respawns. He gives enough exp that you actually see the exp bar jump when he dies, even at paragon 250. |

Finally got it Attached File and now it's not perfect because it's not bloodied. sumbitch |

Lord of Hatred media embargo just ended. IGN and various YouTubers have published reviews and details from press early access. The expansion is looking very interesting. Lots of new stuff, itemization changes, skill trees completely reworked. etc. Of course, Blizzard will find some new and novel ways to F up the release next week, but that's par for the course. |

From what I've seen so far it looks good. The change up for seasonsalong the way has been nice but it hasn't really made the game much different. This looks like it will stir things up a good bit. |

Early play test seems to show warlock gonna be even more OP than OG spiritborn with less dependencies on gear |

Go-live time is 1600 Pacific on Monday, 4/27. Of course, it will probably be a gigantic CF like usual, so I figure playability by Tuesday morning.... |

Checking the usual suspects (Maxroll, Icy Veins, Wowhead, Rob2628) is funny. Except for Icy Veins, there is a bunch of wild-ass guessing about builds and tiers. Icy Veins is the only one saying "we don't know yet". I think it is a fair bet that Warlock and Paladin will be very strong, based on the tradition of Blizzard releasing new classes at a much higher power level. Going to do some testing in Eternal with either the Paladin or Sorc. I have a giant stockpile of whisper caches to pop for free exp, hopefully enough to jump from 60 to 65+ immediately. Of course, the chances of the game being remotely playable any time this evening are pretty low. |

(No spoilers below) First two days I had a lot of disconnects, as well as graphical stuttering. Now I just have the graphical stuttering. It's really bad and I can barely do anything that involves a ton of enemies like Hordes. Public events with lots of players like the WB don't cause stuttering though. Really weird. Anyway, the campaign was decent. I really enjoyed the boss fights and the final boss fight especially. The whole story was pretty good but some individual characters were annoyingly dumb; like, I was actually getting frustrated with em. Got a Warlock to 70. Chilling in T1 learning how all the new stuff works (I went in blind to everything and didn't use a build guide). My current build is basically all of the demonology stuff. I just throw demons everywhere lol. Lots of fun. I'm not sure how I feel about the new War Table thing. The unlockable upgrades to each activity is a cool idea but seems pretty grindy. Since it makes you do a little bit of everything, perhaps it should also give you a choice in the rewards. For example, if it has me doing a bunch of repeat Pit runs, the final reward should be glyph XP or something. |

I'm about 8 or 9 hours in so far, just made 70 this morning and switched over to T1 ( warlock ). Man gear is going to be tough, not many out of the box good stuff drops, I've seen ONE GA piece drop, granted it's a double GA and a yellow, so crafting is going to be a big part of putting a build together. I'm doing the death claw thing or whatever the hell it is that everybody recomends for the warlock, ran into another player running some fire chain bullshit who's affect covered the whole damn screen. I need to look that one up. |

They updated the overall endgame tier list on Maxroll. I was using Minion Warlock but it appears to have dropped down to B tier. I think I'll stick with it for the season. It's a lot of fun and pretty simple. I gotta setup the loot filter. Raxx put out a decent guide to copy:  Diablo 4 Universal Loot Filter |

May also be the player fucking it all up too

Felt better than dreadclaws to me. Need to level glyphs and get some more paragon points, and it should nuke Lilith nicely. |

I leveled up using the warlock minion build. Well still leveling actually. The minion build is easy enough but I just did not enjoy it and it was kind of a pain for AoE purposes. Once I finished the new expansion and hit 61, I changed over to the Apocalypse build. So much more fun and ease of play. The fewer buttons I have to push the better. Could not for the life of me figure out why I was losing life constantly till I actually read the words on the build page. Put some life on hit on my 2hander and now it's gtg. Just need to figure out resource regen now. I barely have any aspects so I guess that is my next thing. I guess they're all drops now and cannot be earned from dungeons any longer? |

Nope, and they’re a pain in the ass now it seems. I’m somewhere around 150 paragon (T6) and am still missing 3 for my build. Two of which I would consider to be critical to damage output of the build.

Apocalypse is fun once it is geared. Spam out chains until the Apocalypse counter hits 100, then click and delete everything in the zip code. I also started a ball lightning sorc - using whisper caches and a couple experience books, it hit 70 it about 30 min. It hits really hard. Definitely a solid build. |

The Echoing Hatred key dropped for me. Meh run with the Barb. But tons of drops. Attached File |
| Haven’t gotten the echoing hatred admission ticket yet. I did finally kill Mephisto on T10 tonight. Whirlwind Selig barb is impressive. |

| ProTip: if you are trying to get Endurant Faith to make a charm, roll a Paladin and have it do the crafting at the cube. Paladins only have 1 unique glove so you have the best chance of getting an Endurant Faith (1 in 6). |

Get a portal skin from Echoing Hatred as well The first message refers to the Immunity Shrine, which should be activated between Tiers 1-9. The second message refers to the Artillery Shrine, which should be activated between Tiers 10-14. The third message refers to the Lethal Shrine, which should be activated between Tiers 15-19. And lastly, the fourth message refers to the Channeling Shrine, which should be activated between Tiers 20-24. It works, but be ready. Those early tiers go by real quick-like! |

Any particular reason for using them in that order? I found the key and had zero clue what it was. Did the event and used the shrines when I felt I needed them. Think I got to level 20 when I died. Spent the next 45 mins going through loot. 15 of that was before I realized the ghosts next to the chest was a vendor and blacksmith. |

If you do them in that order / timing, you get a portal cosmetic as well. I wouldn’t know - the RNG has continued to keep my blocked out.

Been working on the immortal whirlwind barb. This is my second version of this build. The first one I did was decent but low DPS (Maxroll). Tried a new one last night and the DPS is much better but still only decent as far as the immortal part goes (Rob2628).  The BEST Build In Diablo 4 - Immortal Whirlwind Barb Guide Lord of Hatred I am all but immortal. I see videos of guys just standing in stuff with no worries while I get one shot by stuff all the time. No life on anything. Max resource on stuff as well as a lot of GA armor affixes. Melted Heart of Selig, Heir of Perdition, Ramladni with no health on it (that was a chore to get). All glyphs at around 110. Only 268 paragon though. I can do around 110-115 pit with no issues. 120 pit I get one shot far too often to make it useful. So getting my glyphs higher is gonna be a huge chore. Torment 12. I can wreck most all the bosses quickly. Doing NMD is a cake walk but I still have to plan my CD's for when the twin butchers decide to show up or they one shot me. I must be doing something wrong but no clue what. |
