    3 conquests will be super easy this time.


    I wish they'd change The Thrill to "no legendaries at all" instead of "no sets" and reevaluate the grift level for it



    Can already be done in yellow gear on atleast DH and crusader :)
    And thats at p600~

    Looks boring, also opening cowlevel is usually good way to get avarice done.




    If you have all golden gear on & at T10+ if you find a gold goblin will complete the conquest easy!



    Not after the nerf from what iv seen.
    Doesn't matter though, solo 75, 3 gems to 65 and solo 45 can all be done 2nd day of season. No need to fish for gold find :P
    Ofc whole game in 1h can be done kinda instantly.

    Yea only nolifers do this.
    Since season always start on fridays u usually have full weekend to play.
    At most you miss two days of drinking ;)
    I got solo75 done may 1st, aka two days after season start and that was with work on saturday.

    And this was without fixed group, had group first 5h of season and rest only pugs/solo.

    So if journey is your goal u can pretty much do it first weekend without too much grind.

    Quote from DeplumeN»

    I believe you need to reconsider allowing new members immediate access to post new threads.


    The current anti spam strategies are clearly not working.

    The bots will just post in other threads first.
    Seen this happen on many forums, suddenly you see old threads with bullshit answers (broken swedish usually in my case, straight from google translate probably). Few posts later and bot created its spam post.

    But y captchas is kinda meh, they stop as many legit users as bots.

    posted a message on THUD got hacked?!
    Quote from Shapookya»

    THUD does more than showing information already available...

    It can only show info that the servers is already sending to you. Its not a full map reveal with all monsters/pylons like some ppl think.
    The map exploration part can be done from memory by most experienced players even, the layouts aren't that different..

    Quote from Shapookya»

    Quote from Nachten»

    Well i wouldn't call that pathetic. It would call it a little piece of realism. Not sure how big the percentage of the Thud users is in numbers in the game, but i would guess that almost the first ~350 Places in group play might use it. That means 2800 Players compare to the 4 man rifts in the actual season/era.

    Just to bring up some numbers. Of course the "competition" will be more balanced now if nobody is using this cheat, but it might be already to late for this era/season. Some of them might stay some of them might leave we will see.


    the leaderboards do not represent the playerbase. If all 1000 players of all leaderboards quit the game, it would still have a big playerbase... What you say is basically a "the game is dead when the upper 1% leave"
    Game might get kinda boring if all the top players with all the knowledge just drops out. Its already fking bad on the public theorycraft front, all is kept behind closed doors.
    Id guess that 90% of groups on leaderboard use said program. And its not limited to the top, you will find <p800 players in communities that use it.

    For most its not cheating, its fixing a stupid UI in a singleplayer.

    Also its working again, just need to add one line in hostfile x)
    The code is out there (even if its obfuscated), players with the right connections will always have someting like this working.
    Top clans might even have their own stuff thats better.
    Gaming in 2016, the team with best coders wins.

    I used public to skip from hell to inferno in vanilla if that counts (you know the "exploit" with quests).

    Never actually played in a public game.

    posted a message on Ban wave in EU and US
    Quote from Bagstone»

    Quote from Pe3eWe3e»

    Quote from Bagstone»

    Yeah... on some leaderboards some people maybe gained like 5 ranks or so, but as in previous waves it seems to mostly hit season. It's really hard to check all of that though, the official site is damn slow and I'm at work so can't check in-game :P



    That is because some players pushed non season before they switched to season. You have to look at date of this records. Some people are playing season + non season combined. OFC if they ban your account they ban you from game as a whole.Also someone can be temporary removed from LB because of other reasons even if they never cheated. For example if they lock your account (temporary suspend licence) to protect it from hackers it will remove account from LB until next maintenance. I am 90% sure that strictly non season players where not banned still.


    @agostoking: Not for EU/NA. In China they post a wall of shame (though it's technically not Blizzard but NetEase), I have no idea why they don't do this in our region as well. No reason not to publicly shame cheaters in my opinion, deterrence can be a vital part of punishment.

    Some companies have tried public shaming, they have usually not liked the following lawsuits. Its not worth the hassle.
    Especially when Blizzard will even tell you to buy new account.

    I'm sorry for the inconvenience that this has caused you, but we will not be looking into discussing this matter any further and it does mean that if you wish to play Diablo 3 again, you will need to buy a brand new account.

    Take care.

    posted a message on The conquests are way to hard!!!
    Quote from DocSun»

    Quote from Bagstone»

    Quote from Kallizk»

    I've seen alot of ppl claiming the conquests are hard, srsly? are they? i'm really asking here, because i never had any difficulty completing any of them in any season, heck this season i played 100hours on the season hero and went back to NS and i still got the season journey mostly solo and sometimes with rl m8's/GF.
    My advise is to dedicate yourself to it instead of slacking, cause u HAVE to be slacking at this point the season has lasted ALOT of time, more than enough for a solo 80 np.



    The 50 million gold streak requires a bit of luck and preparation (T7+ vault or gold goblin while wearing Boon of the Hoarder, Goldskin, and/or gold find gear; or Ruins of Corvus). Yet, it's the easiest conquest.

    • 8 set dungeons require people to gear up at least two characters with all four sets plus the gear required for that level (about T6 difficulty); since every class has 1-2 super hard set dungeons, it might be more reasonable to actually gear three classes and cherry pick set dungeons, but still that's a lot of multi-class time investment that many casuals don't do.
    • Level GR55 with six different sets is like 8 set dungeons - just much harder (instead of gearing for T6 and being able to cherry pick, you need to gear for the equivalent of about T12 or so). While it's relatively easy on one class and ridiculously easy for people that reach a certain level of paragon, many casuals perceive this as difficult.
    • Sprinter (campaign in under one hour) is hard. I've seen experienced runners doing everything perfect and only get this with 3 minutes left. I've seen some of the best players in the world attempt this and fail this by pure RNG (and after one hour of pushing this not everyone can live with the defeat and just "try again").
    • The Thrill is arguably the easiest, though it's a matter of 1) how much paragon you have, 2) your gem levels, 3) your non-set gear available and 4) your general knowledge of class skills outside of cookie cutter builds. It's the easiest conquest in my book if you have paragon 400+, rank 50+ gems and a few random ancient items (even if they have no useful legendary effects). But there are many casuals who don't have this, and play this game for what it is - a hack'n'slash game where they pick a few random spells and just click on mobs while hoping they die.

    Avarice and The Thrill should be doable, at least with some preparation, for many casual players (not all, but many). The other three conquests are hard for casuals, yes.



    The season 6 conquests will be much easier in comparison.


    Thank you so much for this Bagstone! OMG I see so much "its so easy" around here people forget there are people who are legit casuals. I work 50+ hours a week. I have family, I watch/listen to movies and TV half the time because I am so exhausted to get out of bed. I love my diablo. I want to enjoy it I want the extra stash tabs but I just cant beat some of the concquests solo with my limited time. Thankfully S6 looks more reasonable.
    Like many other players.
    Mastery (all dungeons) took two hours per class for me (aka my DH, Crusader, barb, wd, monk had 2 hours played when I was done).
    Farmed all the gear on my wizard and had it done by first week.

    Its all about knowledge of the game, it take few hours invested if you do it right.

    A player thats too casual shouldn't expect to get the rewards either (though sadly gamedevs are moving towards this, more reward for no effort).

    Like when you see ppl with 10k+ posts on bnet forum saying they dont have time to finish season. Nice time investment =)

    posted a message on How is HC now-a-days?
    Quote from H0p31355»

    Gearing is very easy nowadays with the help of the cube and Haedrig's Gifts, so if you have stable connection HC is definitely a viable option :). And the journey is piece of cake :D.


    For people like me - without stable connection - it's sadly not an option :(.

    Even with stable connection its just a matter of time until serverlag and you die.

    Boss Mode- Kill the following bosses on max level on Torment X within 20 minutes of the start of the game (lists all the bosses).



    You have to kill all bosses in 1 game without leaving in less than 20minutes??? Can someone post a list of those bosses please. Thanks in advance ^^


    I guess Speed Demon, On a Good Day and Divinity will be my conquest achievements in order to complete the journey ^^.

    All bosses and you have to be in the fight, its pretty easy.

    Once again conquests are too easy and will just happen by normal gameplay :/
