[Gaming] Diablo 3 : Ser Farm-A-Lot
- Thread starter Jay
- Start date
I'm still busy with Darkest Dungeon, but when I start back up, I don't know what class to take. I clearly have most experience with WD and Wizard, followed by Necro. I've never played a monk at all, and Demon Hunter and Barbarian once each. Crusader's somewhere in the middle.
Any particular gameplay specific things to suggest changing or sticking to a specific class?

Yes.
Take a look at which conquests are part of the season’s rotation, then find out which classes are best at completing those conquests. Then pick from those classes but with preference given to those classes which share the same prime stat.
Everything on the season journey can be achieved with enough playtime, but the real gatekeeper on those last three journey levels is being able to complete those three conquests.

The only real reason to play T7 is because you need to farm bounty materials BUT level T8 is still too hard to do it quickly (T7 is the first level where the number of materials per bounty increases from 6 to 8). For all other reasons, yes T8 has better rewards for everything else, and completing just about ANY 6-piece set should immediately promote you to being able to hunt at a minimum of T7 (and if it doesnt, then that means you probably need to readjust or boost your gems), so gearing up to hit T8 shouldn’t take much longer anyway.

Well, I HAVE played Diablo before 
I'm Paragon 984 in the base game, so I'm not exactly a newbie.

I will say, playing on the Americas instead of Europe now, I get a lot more disconnects. Alt-tabbing away for 5 minutes'll crash my game in America, and in Europe I could leave it for 15 minutes (the maximum before automatic disconnect) without any issues.
Also, my ping is horrible. It's always 200ms+, usually 500+ and often 800+. Not too much of a problem except for the edge cases where you're almost-dead-but-not-oh-apparently-I-already-was-on-the-server-side.

Now P172, have been playing with this build for a while....hmmm. It's certainly different than what I'm used to. I like the speedy feel,and the solo clear times of lower rifts are definitely faster than anything I've ever done with a WD or Necro (bar running around as a chicken). But at higher level GRs and difficulties, man it's squishy. I know I'm still lacking some important parts of my build and some decent gems etc, but the difference is big.
Now I remember why I used to shy away from all those ground effects from elites
Here is my character, for those interested

I've now transitioned to a Raekor/IK Furious Charge build. I haven't quite worked out whether I prefer 4/6 or 6/4 pieces...As a full-Raekor I saw crits over 200B (yikes), which hasn't been the case since I switched. My damage has gone down quite significantly, so I might go back to 6Raekor/4IK and see what that does.
Anyone here a lot of Barb experience?

Most of my happy Barb time has been with Immortal King’s + Whirlwind + Bul-Kathos, because Infinite Whirlwind + Infinite Wrath of the Berserker = the ability to solo clear nephalem rifts in under 5 min.
I believe @Dave was mor a fan of the “Leapquake” build, you might ask his opinion on that.
I believe that the Furious Charge build has the greatest damage potential (or at least it did a few seasons ago), but there have been more than a few balance changes since it came out, so I don’t know if that’s still true.

I just cleared a GR45 rift solo in 3 minutes 24 seconds. I know there's plenty faster out there (I'm pretty sure i've done faster myself with a chicken), but yeah, speed isn't exactly this build's problem - I don't really have any great gear rolls or augments or what-have-you. And I'm still getting the hang of this build.
I also just realized why my damage seemed to be down - I replaced my Fury of the Vanished Peak (Seismic Slam half price and 5x damage) with the IK hammer (necessary set piece). I might have to throw the other one in the Cube
It's fun, and it's a very different gameplay loop than what I'm used to from necro/WD/Wiz, so, hey.

Are chat/communication in American public games always so incredibly vile and insulting? I went into a public rift game for the T13-in-4-minutes season journey step. Within 5 minutes I'd been called a dipshit, a carry (by someone 75 P-levels above me....Hah), "boy", f*g, told to just go away,... For the record, I had written one line.
I'm not saying everyone in all public games on the European servers are polite, but this was XBox-Halo-chat levels of sewage.
