Did a GR 39 last night and was 10 sec short of a GR 40 later on. Had a conduit but failed at getting to 99% so I could use it. Still completely restricted to solo monk play. Hope to see other share their story (if they are doing the same thing).
My question is simple: do you play monk ONLY or do you use a DH or some other class to help you farm high GR keystones? Or do you play in groups to improve gems/keystones?
I've chosen to only use ONE character for everything to truly test what monks can do solo. I'm by all means a casual gamer (1 hour a day or so) but I'm getting close to getting into the top 100 on NS monk solo leaderboards. It is tempting to group up and get better gems to improve solo GR, but I'm staying true to my monk!
Arcane Dust is the best drop in RoS. I love seeing that blue text, since it means I'll be able to craft/enchant stuff once or twice this week. I think I have 4000 crystals and not a single arcane dust atm. I always run out of the blue stuff, but I never pick up yellow items. I pick blue items and arcane dust religiously.
Either increase the amount of arcane dust that drops at a time or the amount of dust we get from salvaging blue items.
However, if you find an ok Wizardspike, you're even better off. I use Electrocute every 5th sec, and the rest goes to Disintegrate (Chaos Nexus). Since I have Wizardspike, I get fire + cold (free frozen orbs) in every attack. So sweet Gotta love Elemental Exposure.
This, as with everything else, depends on your choice in skills/runes, playstyle, preferences and all the other factors. We can't help you unless you at least provide a link to your build and character.
Either it's that the guy was playing monk and i find monk unfathomably boring - or the rifts just in general seem very boring to me.
I would much rather do the whole bounty thing - as that seems to be a lot more fun and varied compared to running down X amount of levels to fight Y boss. I know that in concept, they both seem sort of the same - but the feels are different from what i can tell.
It just seems more fun to run in the actual world and mess about with stuff there, hoping for loot - rather so then running this fictional litlle setup "random" dungeon.
I agree. I also wish and hope that the rifts are 10x harder than they look in the beta. They should be HARD and RARE. Currently all beta testers are swimming in rift-keys. I want a rift to be something you gotta prepare for and look forward to.
Maffia...that is a really good point. But honestly, how many people truly crank up the difficulty to push themselves? Even with the higher boosts to XP and MF, some people still do runs on MPs way lower than their gear lets them handle, in order to keep their kill counts rising faster and faster, and because the more monsters they kill the more chances they have at gear dropping.
Though, I think it needs to be distinguished if ALL NV stacks get removed on death, or if 1 does. I'd be okay with losing 1 NV stack on death. For people who die only once in a while, it'd be an additional wrinkle to push through, and a reason to try that little bit harder. While people who are dying tons of times over and over, it'll be a much bigger pain.
Well I do for a start, 1-shotting everything is boring, much prefer a challenge and a protracted battle, and I can't be the only one.
Currently rank 59 on EU NS and climbing!

How about you?
Edit: fixed broken link.

EDIT: Tried to resize these, but they won't obey.. Sorry for the HUGE images. I don't know how to internet...
The last one will be Gifted as soon as I find another gift.

You are not alone!
I can. EU as well.
How can an event prove your (subjective) experience of something you haven't experienced? O.o
I need some input on how to price this beauty. Selling it on RMAH (EU) only. No amount of gold will do. Any input is appreciated.
And the "account bound" is only due to the gem that I've put in the socket. The ring will ofc not be account bound when it is removed.
Selling this beauty. Either through RMAH or for gold. Add me ingame or post in here if you are interested.
