I know its a bit late, but in case anyone doesnt know about some of the cool Legendarys and stuff new to season 2, heres a video to fill you in.
Also, i'm trying to decide what classes i'll play thru season 2. If anyone has a favorite, let me know, and i'll get em to lv 70 and start doin some coverage
Don't play Wizard for sure, I wanted to test him out, new bracers are really lame. Will try to find a good use for them, but not going well atm. DH is the same, lame DMG boost, nothing interesting. It's like they sat in the office, took a cup of coffee and decided all the new stuff coming in season 2.

Thats sad to hear. So i guess i'll wait on wizard and DH. Definetly playing a Monk to test out those exploding palm bracers. Maybe i'll go for Barb or Witch doctor as a secondary.....That Locus swarm legendary sounds pretty cool, as does the one that gives frenzy every rune.
I wish they would take notice of some of the successful things going on in other games and try to implement / improve on them to add into seasons here. A handful of new legendaries, a couple new leg gems, and some new gobs isn't much change at all. In the past couple of years I have been yoyo-ing back and forth between POE and D3, I came back to D3 specifically because they added seasons and I wanted to give them a shot since I purposefully stay away PTR's but I have noticed a reoccurring theme since the release of D3, it takes them a long long time to implement anything meaningful. So if season two is just going to be more of the same I might be skipping it.
All those legendarys seem so lame, only those monk bracers could be pretty nice. Nothing like comdemn shield in season 1. Might skip this season if they don't inroduce anything else.
i think the barbarian item could be pretty nice. And the wormwood staff could be good or not, we'll have to see. Monk bracers will be great tho

well in my opinion, the whole point of Seasons is supposed to be about the leaderboards. Thats what made Diablo 2 so awesome. putting everyone on an even playing field, and having them strive ta do better than everyone else. The chance of getting new legendarys is kind of a secondary bonus, as these will roll into the normal game once the season has ended.

I agree with you. I was totally into playing season 2. But when I learned that the new sets was off the table (give me Delsere!) for 2.1.2 I see no reason to play season 2. The new legendaries isn't game changers for the classes I play. Actually feels quite nice to focus on NS for a while and all my "forgotten" chars after season 1 ends and roll over is done.
I think what I am going to do after seeing the legendaries is get a character to 70 for the transmog and go back to NS , season has really dragged on for me this first time around , I suppose it did not help to have full M6 , calamity / Kridershot and T&T in under a week . Yet all my playtime in non season , never netted me a calamity or kridershot and T&T dropped one day before seasons started
Are those new gems just restricted to seasons too ?

My NS monk got a major upgrade after transfering my season 1 gear on the PTR. Went from 18mil toughness to 29mil toughness, and 550k dps to 700k dps. I'll be playing seasons and NS quite a lot. Still havent gotten me a full monk set.

I believe so on the Gems, but they will roll into NS as soon as the season rolls over i believe.
It seems to be related to the "https" at the beginning. For some reason, even though you put the link correctly (with "https://) when clicking on it the forum or browser or whatever swallows the ":", making the URL invalid. I'm no expert and I have no idea why it happens, I just noticed that's what happens.
You can make it work by not having the http/https at the beginning of the URL, and start it with "www".

ya. i play all classses and i have to say monk is one of my favorites. it really looks promising.
I've played monk primarily since D3 came out. Its good to see the class get a little love with the Exploding palm Legendary. I used to run EP back in starting D3, but havent since. It'll be awesome to see the skill in action again. Kind of reminded me of Corpse explosion from the Necromancer in Diablo 2.
they would announce the end of season 1 a month prior. so we probably have 5-6 weeks AT LEAST (i'm thinking they'd put a week or two between seasons
I would hope so, the more time to prep the better. Start doing some experimentation on how to level up a lv 1 character the fastest....ooooo theres a video i should look into making. might help some people out.
I guess everyone can do what makes them happy but I just can't get excited about Seasons mode at all.
I think (as someone mentioned) that they need to take a leaf out of POE's book and make each season unique or have something different about it to keep people interested.
How they do this is a task for the creative ones but a handful of new items (some of which you might not even find) isn't enough for me.
What about during the season Elites have 6 afflixes instead of 4. Or every 20 minutes a random rift guardian spawns on top of you. Or set of affixes elites have is randomized every 5 seconds so you never know what you're going to face?

That would probly take alot of programming to do, but i see your point. It would be pretty intense if Elites had 6 affixes, definetly up the challenge factor a bit.

Fixed it for you either way. Now it works both when being clicked and when using the "Play" button. Good stuff btw.

it's at least a month to go though so i'm really hoping that would change.
monk really got interesting !
