    posted a message on Removal of order on bounties

    They won't remove bounties... there'd be next to no reason to venture out into the game world then. If they did, all one would do would be to run rifts and grifts (and eventually challenge rifts) from the town hub. You might go kill a key warden from time to time but there'd be nothing else in the game world to do.

    posted a message on SEASON 9
    Quote from Demonmonger»

    I personally delete all my loot after each season, so I did not really understand.
    Yeah, I'm only in Seasons to unlock the stash tabs but I might continue getting to Chapter 4 in future seasons for the cosmetics.

    posted a message on Season 8 'free' sets?
    Quote from Bagstone
    Generally speaking, you have separate stages:
    1. Leveling 1-70
    2. Acquiring your first full set (the time before you get your third Haedrig's Gift)
    3. Farming (~100 ~T10 runs and ~GR50-60 to get all the keys+gem upgrades, bounties)
    4. Finishing the journey (conquests, solo GR)

    I'd also include mastering the set dungeon. Sure, if could be put under 'Finishing the journey' but for most part, the objectives in the journey build on top of what's come before. The set dungeon is a whole different beast in itself and there's typically one set per class that has super easy set dungeon. Picking a class who's haedrig's gift is this set or is one of that class' viable GR pushing sets will mean you won't have to farm up one more set.


    In S8, IMHO the best solo class for getting the stash tab is DH. Nats is the DH's easy set dungeon and with a few pieces of M6 with Nats, it's viable for GR pushing. One would still want UE for the speed rift clears though but you won't really need UE till Destroyer or Conqueror. It's the DHs ability to speed clear rifts as well as do the other requirements that sets it apart for solo.


    In a team/clan environment, I'd add on Barb and WD. If you have other players to help you speed clear rifts, WD and Barb have Arachyr and IK which are another two easy set dungeons and both sets are end game viable for GR64 (IK with R6 at least... not sure how it does by itself these days).


    For getting the stash tab asap, I wouldn't touch Monk, Wiz or Sader since their haedrig's gift requires very specific complimentary weapons and legendary items to be effective, severely limiting effectiveness to quickly jump to T10 farming. I've had some Monk players say they've gone 600+ paragons without seeing a Fist of Az.

    posted a message on Stash tab for non-seasonal players
    Quote from Quel_Droma»
    Blizzard should offer something unique, cool for seasonal players. The stash tab is just a pathetic replacement for that.

    I don't think anyone can disagree that the rewards for playing season should be much cooler than this. Maybe give some additional rewards for players unlocking the seasonal achievements for 2-3 seasons in a row.

    I agree with the fact that the stash tab is the wrong reward for players to play seasons. Stash tabs are things that NS players and HC players need more of. Seasons I believe should get the cosmetic rewards. Not sure about items only obtainable in seasons. If this was the case, I think everyone will be playing seasons sooner or later as if there was an item that was necessary for a particular build, you wouldn't want to miss out on it. I was happy with the previous arrangement where seasonal players get exclusive access to certain items for a season and NS would get access at the end of seasons.

    Personally, I think cosmetics are the way to go... isn't game breaking and lets seasonal players show off their accomplishments without breaking the game.

    Quote from oldschool_2o4f»

    Your only option is to "rebirth" the character, and get your stash tab in less than 30 days, so you can reclaim your stuff from the email.

    Or plan ahead and not accumulate too much new gear between seasons like what I'm doing. Though with the 9th stash tab gained now, it's a bit easier to manage gear. Also helps that the tab has allowed me to put all my FnR rings in one place and delete the ones with absolutely no use.

    posted a message on Stash tab for non-seasonal players

    Know what's a true casual for me?

    A guy that plays couple of hours on weekends when his children go to bed. And it takes 3 months for him to accomplish what he wants in season. He barely makes it in time and asks for help at the very end of the season because he is simply unable to play for "2-3 hours every day" and do that god damn gr75. .Now think, if this guy needs a stash tab or not.

    So your definition of a casual is someone who is hopeless... clearly you're out of touch with what casual playing can accomplish.
    How long has RoS been out for? Over 2yrs? If someone was only able to for 1hr for some wind down time, every second night of the week, I'd deem that to be rather casual. Guess what? Before this year and having to unlock the stash tab via seasons, that was me. And guess what? I had a full stash and full character inventories with almost every set for all classes as well as decent complimentary legendaries. It was full to the point where emptying one character for seasons meant I couldn't play NS until I unlocked the stash tab.
    Some of us have been playing D3 since day 1 and despite being casual, we rack up a fair few good items too which we need space for. We may not put 10hrs in per day... why would we? We don't repeat the same thing every 3 months... we have lives to get on with so we plan ahead, keep good gear so we don't have to unnecessarily hunt it down again and still get to enjoy the game. We know how to follow a bloody gearing guide and do better than GR75 still.

    posted a message on Travelling, what to do?
    Quote from gnavpotten»

    there must be playing in Europe servers from AUS and NZ?

    So that you're clear, you can play on the European region from Australia
    And as you are aware, the AU server is tied to the Americas region, but even if the AU server was tied to the European region in anyway, if the host of the game is outside of Australia, you will still get bad ping. This because the game instance is hosted on the server closest to the leader of the party. And if you were the host on the AU server, all your EU friends will have bad ping so someone will lose out because of the geographical distance.
    But I concur with the advice on getting out and about more while you're in Australia, and just spend the 40-60hrs getting the stash tab in Seasons so you don't miss out.
    And yes, there are lots of animals in Australia that can kill you... you just need to be mindful of these things depending on where you're venturing to.
