Blue Tagged Guides

Two guides on the official forums were recently blue tagged (which probably mean they are pretty good), one is a huge compilation of all Crusader-related info and another with everything you need to know about followers. A very worthy read for someone still not familiar with all game mechanics!

RoS Followers (lvl.70) Complete guide

Introduction A few things to know
With RoS followers were greatly improved and can now deal a very decent amount of damage, even in higher tourments. Some of their skills and stats were modified inducing new behaviors to adopt in gameplay. Some of the max stats given here, such as MF or block chances, can be made higher by combining actual and legacy items.

• Set bonus do not applies to followers.
• Follower's buff goes away when he dies, that goes only for passive buffs, equipment bonus stays active, same with active buffs or CCs that were previously casted (note : a followers never "dies", just goes KO).
• MF/GF/%xp/+pts xp buffs applies to you with a 1/5 ration, they don't fade away even if your followers goes KO.
• All stats are effective on followers, such as elemental damage bonus, CDR, bonus vs. elites etc. Exceptions : all ressources related stats, mouvement speed
• Follower will appreciate legendaries you thought were crap for you.

Great job on writing up this guide! I have a lot of fun working on gearing up my followers, and I always appreciate good advice on awesome ways to do it. Thanks, AshTag! (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)

Krelm's Buff Explained

A user on the official forums was wondering if the immunity to Knockback and Stun effects granted by the Krelm's Buff Bracers also protects the user from Frozen, Frozen Orb and Jailer. That is not the case, though.

Probably not, as Jailer and Frozen are not stuns, they are immobilize and freeze effects.

Neidbau's got it on this one. Krelm's Buff Bracers grant immunity to Stuns and Knockbacks, neither of which apply to the Jailer or Frozen effects.

Save Transfer on UEE

A blue post explained today that people looking to get the Ultimate Evil Edition (console) version of Reaper of Souls can transfer their characters from a PS3 save and continue from where they stopped.

If you have the PS3 version of Diablo III then you'll be able to transfer your save file to UEE for PS3 or PS4, and continue on with those same characters.

Starter Crafted Barbarian

Keeping up the trend of Crafted Character Guides, CuckooGaming made a Fire-based Barbarian guide this time around. If you are looking to get a Barbarian alternate started, got tons of materials and want to go straight into a higher difficulty for a better chance at set items, this guide is for you. Check it out!
