I'm still split between which Barb I want to level. There is something extremely compelling about trying to hit 100 in hardcore... It would be devastating to lose a high Paragon level hardcore character though.
Yes, absolutely, and I would probably be to 20 or 30 by now if it'd have been in there since launch lol
I am halfway through A2 Inferno HC and am way more interested in reaching 100 paragon than finishing the game (will do both). It is a much more long term challenge honestly. 100% excited about this new system
-- Edit; also, way more respect for 100 paragon. Nobody is rich enough to pay leech for that many levels. Whereas people sell the inferno HC achievements so they're meaningless.
The system "lasts longer" if it's per character and from what they've said per character seems to fit more. The downside is, you can't choose what class you want to farm on if one has significantly higher paragon level than another you kind of "have to" play that one for efficiency (unless you just really want to do something different that day). But I think that's better than people only being able to hit the cap once, then being done. This way players who want to can get all 5 classes to paragon 100.
If you kill 40 mobs per min, thats almost 20 000 exp per min. If you play for 8 hours a day, thats more than 1 000 play days until you reach lvl 100. ALMOST 3 YEARS OF PLAYING FOR 8 HOURS A DAY which is eaqual to leveling 475 characters from level 1 to 60. GL to everyone who thinks that the bonus is worth it. Take in mind that in diablo 3 you cant kill that fast monster as in diablo 2 (cow level i mean) with super fast spamming skills and aoe. And Hardcore? Pic or it didnt happend
I grind from 50-60 in act 1 hell at leoric's manner with a WD run inside, locusts+grasp+soul harvest, spirit walk away, kill elite if it's there. 60k XP and I run it non stop averaging 45 seconds per run with things slowing me down. And that's xp rates in HELL not inferno. So you can pretty much divide that playtime by a large margin considering XP rates in inferno are much higher (if they are same as previously published)
Also even if someone isn't power grinding like that, NV gives +15% XP, and anyone playing at this level will have at a minimum a 25% XP boost in helm
And of course it will happen. People got to 99 HC d2. Easier yes but not more time consuming.. months and months and months of grinding
