    posted a message on Carries 4 Fun

    Premise:

    On the NA servers I have created a new community called Carries 4 Fun; much Like Leeches and Saddles. However, this community will have an emphasis on on returning players and newer players.


    Post Season 8 I personally only play seasons for the cosmetics now as I have all the stash tabs. there for i return to non seasonal earlier now. I play both HC and SC. It depends on what the Horadric Gift will be for each season. Example season 9 I played HC crusader and season 11 I'll play HC Demon Hunter (Unhollowed Essence will be free). I digress.


    While back in non season SC, I typically fish open pub lobbies below T8. Why? because those are the lobbies where you typically find the new players and returners. I reform the group in T10 or T13 how often they die, farm keys for them and do Speed GRs. Tell them a little bit about gear selection, find kanai's cube for them, and tell them other "trade secrets."


    Ideally its better to have more Leechers than Carriers.


    I typically available for service M-F: 4AM - 6AM PST and 7PM - 10PM PST. join the community if you want to leech off me and learn a thing or two.

    posted a message on Cursed Chest Conquest.

    honestly, you'll get a better response if you hit up the in-game communities first. Many people on Dfans are NA PC players.

    Bottom right corner > communities > find

    Farm the curse peat location yourself then hit up a bunch of multishot DHs.

    probably a virus. If he had an idea he would've either typed it out or given us a youtube link like a normal person.

    if you were on HC i could help.

    Another thing is you should play the Helltooth chicken or Arachyr chicken build. If you are looking for speeds. Jade nuke isn't really a speeds builds. Its a spam DoT nukem build.

    Another way is to ask 3 lightning wizards to help you. Pretty much clear T13 in 2-3 mins consistently.

    You only cleared rank 1 GR on LB because Blizz can't balance properly.


    And just remove PvP discussion if this game isn't for PvP. Why is there even PvP discussion?

    it only exist because people like you keep begging for it to be in the game. Buh, D2 PvP wasn't even balanced. If any anything they just need to add it to leader boards to make you people happy.

    If you want it so bad, bring it up with blizzard. Diablofans don't care. Even Reddit or facebook would bring more traction.

    Yo Bagstones close this thread. too many threads like this exist on this site already.

    posted a message on Q:New Meta for S10 (4-Man)
    Quote from Bagstone»

    This is a screenshot from 4 man leaderboard on PTR; taken a minute ago:



    Wiz/DH/double crusader is the new meta. You heard it here first. Made top 20 on PTR, so it must be meta, right? RIGHT? RIGHT?


    Well...



    Maybe not quite. It's only GR40.


    No one is playing PTR. There's simply not enough testing to give any definitive answer about the S10 meta. And there won't be until PTR goes down, because Blizzard recently started to make meta-impacting changes post-PTR. You can ask about the meta a few weeks into the season. But: IT DOESN'T MATTER. In the first few days and weeks, the meta is *not* the same as the final season push meta. You're not pushing on day 1 or in week 1 of the season; you're speedfarming.


    Pick any class you like, or whatever your group wants you to pick. Be prepared to change classes. That's it. Same every season.


    Currently it's assumed that the meta is sup barb, sup monk, WD for trash, and either monk, wiz, or DH for the RG (all three seem to be viable). But anyone who will now tell you "THIS IS THE S10 META FOR SURE" is an absolutely bloody fool. Don't ask for them, don't listen to them. If anyone of the top players tells you what the S10 meta is, they'll be trolling you; they know better.

    Yea i pretty much tell all the youtubers saying R6 gen monk is being replaced by the SM6 Impaler DH, that PTR doesn't dictate the META. PTR servers are unstable so why say "Oh brand new META." Granted The Hydra wiz is very OP right now. But you have to wonder, If the current Lightning archon is at least 5 solo GRs above the R6 gen monk, why isn't it commonly used in 4-man pushes?

    Like you said, many threads and seasons ago. META evolves over time. PTR predicts the start of the season, but not the end game.

    Heck for all we know they new META will be Hydra wiz, zbarb, and zmonk, zWD.

    posted a message on Lack of devs responses on PTR...

    honestly, for the difficulties there is way too many. Like mannercookie and meathead Mckail said a while back when he was playing the game, re-scale all the difficulties.

    I say bring it back to D3 vanilla naming convention.

    Torment = T13
    Inferno = T10
    Hell = T6
    Nightmare = T1
    Normal = Normal.


    The CC immunity is absurd as well. It just dawned on me reading your post why my LoN bomb build feels under whelming. It pretty much felt pointless to have Bane of the trapped on that build.

    Caps are needed for sure. For Gems they need to do what they did for the Taegok. Remember that gem scaled infinitely and there was a 3 sec delay per level. Re-scale the bonus % of gems such as stricken and PE. Then cap it at 10. I remember when Stricken was first introduced EVERYONE said put a cap on stricken its too OP. 2 builds come to mind that reveals the true potential of stricken (not limited to these builds). Firebird Archon and Vyr Rasha Archon. The stacks scales infinitely with archon stacks that scale infinitely. It almost feels like it double dipping. Archon needs to be capped at 100 stacks and keep it at 6%.

    IMHO everything needs a cap. But they'll never cap paragon or GRs. I think GRs needs the real cap because then solo / groups can then compete for who has the fastest time. Having infinitely will always invite power creep. In the top 100 we might see all GR100s, but not all will have 10 min runs. some will have 14min runs. You also invite more builds to become the dps. rather 3 choices (with an overwhelmingly obvious optimum choice).

    posted a message on Need help with lag issues GR90+

    whose running LoH that is the next question. Life on Hit lags out the game as well. thats why you see some parties where the zdps classes use diamonds or gem of ease.

    having LoH on 1 class is fine, both classes, youll probably lag out.

    posted a message on Conquest advice
    Quote from Twoflower»

    Hi guys


    I have been playing since launch and did most of my playtime before RoS even came out. I recently started playing in season 9 and wanted to go for that extra stash space.


    The only thing I can't really do are the conquests. They seem to require either a good team or very specific gear, both of which I dont really have. I play casually and mostly in random groups. I have a few hunter sets and not much else really except for crafting materials.


    Anyway, the char in question is in my armory link below with the creative name seasonnine. Could you advice me in what conquests are easiest to go for?



    hit up the communities.

    Solo you can do quite a bit with a DH for conquest.

    Curses:
    farm act5 cursed peat. Its the only curse chest that spawns the mobs fast enough. Its to get the 350 kills.

    Avarice:
    is easy too. Go to Act5: Ruins of Corvus. Must have Boon of the Hoard equiped Level 25 or higher. T10-T13. you can get 50 mil easy.
    You can also do Cursed Peat (curse chest) with this one as well to kill two birds with 1 stone.
    What i did was farm a total of 100 bounty caches including the bonus. Thats 10 runs in T10. Unequip your pet, make sure you have a good connection. and take off all pick up radius. Open all the caches in town. I did it it this way because i needed the mats. And I trusted my internet connection enough.

    The thrill:

    Its by far my favorite one. Note, any class that has a Legacy of Nightmare (LoN) build can do this. Replace the set rings with a CoE and Unity (any rings that are not set items)
    Crusader: LoN Bomb
    Barbarian: LoN frenzy or LoN WW
    Wiz: LoN Etched Sigil
    WD: LoN Spirit Barrage, LoN Dagger of Darts
    Monk: LoN LTK
    DH: LoN Fan of Knives or LoN Multishot, LoN grenade.

    posted a message on Bounty runs necessary?
    Quote from overmindvic»

    Hello All


    I know that the most efficient way of getting an ancient item with the right rolls is to reroll it untill you get one. But to be honest I really don't like doing bounty runs. For me it is too much forced and not 'aRPGious' enough. I should be able to find my upgrades via rifts and GR runs, at least that is more fun to me. And now the question: do you think that avoiding bounties compleatly could still be somehow viable in terms of getting desired loot? Or would it take too much time?


    All polite answers appriciated :)


    Regards

    and here we wait for Angryroleplayer's response.

    My answer is no. you need bounty mats and specific bounty loot to progress in the game. Illusory Boots are needs for every LoN build and every zdps build.

    Bounty mats are needed for gear reforging. There's already a thread topic about this, but it says based on the loot table when you should reforge vs. upgrade a rare. 10%+ you upgrade a rare. -10% you reforge. Lets say you wanted a specific ceramic knife. The thing is there are only so many Ceramic knives in the game. Just use "hope of cain" to upgrade a bunch of rares. But says you wanted thorn dmg on Belt of the trove. There is alot of belts and BotT only has like a 1.64% drop rate. Its best to just reforge it.

    posted a message on Season 10 Haedrigs etc.

    noo....

    you pretty much unlock all cosmetics at the end of chapter4. not when you finish the season journey. Been that way for 9 season so far. The only thing you get when complete Guardian is the final portrait frame.

    posted a message on Diablo 3 Banwave: Blizzard bans botters from US Servers finally

    what i notice on the NA leaderboards is that most of the botters use multiple accounts. It cant be a coincidence that there are 2x [Sc] "..." in the same clan. 1 got banned and the other is still there. My theory is they party up with their bot account and loot share. then they push the leaderboards with both accounts in 2 separate groups.

    It is kind of like creating a "back up" character in HC. Except they are creating a back up account.

    posted a message on Patch 2.5.1 - Predictions Poll

    not going to happen. they already announced last year during blizzcon that the necro pack will come out the 3rd or 4th quarter of the year. The smart thing is it release the necro pack for season 12 after Blizzcon. During Blizzcon they have a final version for players to test. They would also probably give select streamers closed Beta CD keys to test the necromancer. Blizzcon will most likely show case the set dungeons and 4 complete sets for the necromancer.

    This is all speculation, But it is also the best marketing strategy. They will rope you in at Blizzcon. And then they'll announce Diablo cards will be coming to Hearthstone. LMFAO.

    A side note, remember guys tomorrow is March that means Kanai's skorn should be available when patch 2.5 hits. Its a special March event for this transmog.

    posted a message on POLL: How rare should Primal Ancients be!?

    2000% so it makes all other gear completely obsolete. They should also lower the GR standards to GR1 and no higher but not tell anyone.

    They should also make a special realm from which these PAs drop from. The realm only spawns from a Goblin that has a 1% chance to spawn on any difficulty.

    posted a message on Looking for a good build for console

    it doesn't matter. It depends on what class you prefer to play. Like i personal don't like the monk and specific builds from other classes as they feel clunky.

    If you want META or GR pushing Viable:

    DH: M6 grenade, UE6 Grenade, UE6 Multishot (requires alot of skill, so far qudijo could only pull it off), LoN FoK
    Monk: R6 gen, Inna gen, Inna EP, Uliana EP, SWK LTK, LoN LTK
    WD: Arachyr and helltooth firebat, helltooth garg, jade (arguably takes the most skill)
    Wiz: archon firebird, archon vyr rasha lightning
    Barb: IK6/R4 charger, IK4/R6 Boulder toss, Zodiac WW, EQ, LoN Fenzy Thorn
    Sader: LoN bomb, Hammerdin, Sweeper (need to wait for patch 2.5)
