I have a few questions here so if anyone could help out, it would be appreciated.
1) Our friend wants to play Crusader on launch. He wants the other people in our group to rush him through Act 5 on his Torment 6 (level 1 and beyond) so he can get the act cleared and we can clear it faster to start doing rifts and/or bounties. I know it really comes down to if we're willing to actually rush him, but my question is this. Would he even be able to go straight into Act 5 without completing Acts 1-4? My only idea for doing that would be for one of us, already at 60, to give him a checkpoint and have him restart the game on his torment.
2) In order to do rifts and bounties, do we have to have all the quests in the game completed to have adventure mode available? It's something I heard on a stream on Twitch, but wasn't 100% sure if it was true since I hadn't heard it before. Though I'm not up to date on everything I need to know for ROS launch.
3) Would anyone that's going to be no lifing, like we are, and playing a monk, be interested in playing with us. Currently have Wizard, DH, Crusader to play. Looking to have a good Monk for Conviction and Cyclone Strike.
as i understood crusader doesnt start at act 5 and for adventure mode you need to finish some quest in act 5 not sure which one but as i remember from closed beta it was a quest not lvl 70 must
I don't expect Crusader to start in Act5, but we were thinking we could kill two birds with one stone and get him some rushed xp while we clear Act5 so we can do Adventure Mode.
You also don't get why people want to take off of work to do something they enjoy. You play your way, we play our way. We both have fun. What's the issue?
Well personally I want to start with crusader with ACT 5 from lvl 1, finish ACT 5 and then continue with bounties. All I need is save after Diablo kill so I did not loose legendary which I want to get at 70lvl ofc

Umm, you may want to reread that thread...I'm one of the people taking Tuesday off.
Oh whoops :3 must've confused you with someone else. My bad. But to the topic at hand, to each their own. We all play for our own reasons. Sorry again sir.
1) Should be perfectly possible. Just make sure he gets enough "level gear" with high vit so he isn't dead all the time (dead = no XP). Lots of amethysts and gear with many sockets. And of course at level 60 have some good strength gear prepared (can just be taken from a barb of his, at least most of it). That'll make it a bit smoother - of course he'd still need to figure out how to play a Crusader and get the right spec (unless he played beta and knows it all already). There is one huuuuuuuuge drawback though: your friend, after you gave him the Diablo waypoint, needs to re-start the game - just after midnight. That might not go smooth (extremely long game creation queue). So what I would do is the following:
A few hours before midnight, your friend opens a game with Diablo waypoint
You join with a level 1 char of yours, so you have the Diablo waypoint on a level 1 char
You create a new game, Torment 6 level 1, at Diablo waypoint, and idle in town until midnight (you might invite a random toon of your friend)
At 0:01, your friend creates a crusader and joins your level 1 game
You give your friend lead, leave the game, switch to your main character, rejoin, kill Diablo, and go straight to act 5.
I'm sure it'll be fun!
2) You have to have completed the entire game, yes - but no one knows if that means to complete the entire game including all quests on one character, just once on your account, or even just kill off Malthael. Not sure. So just because I don't want to run into any bad surprise I made sure that my wiz has everything completed (the "reset quests" button is not grayed out).
3) Already have a group, but I'm quite sure there will be a couple of people online tonight. You might wanna add battletag and server region.
