Tavern Talk Doubts Clarified
Nevalistis replied to a few questions about the Tavern Talk Stream on its reddit thread. It was said that questions focusing on the PTR and Patch 2.2 will be prioritized, how there is no way to avoid people asking questions about topics already "known", how the stream is independent to the two week notice (before the season ending) and that questions will mostly be taken from Twitch's chat. Read below.

Is there a topic (like PTR ONLY) or is it an "anything goes" Q & A session?
That's not to say we won't answer other questions, but questions about those items are more likely to be answered. :) (Source)
When picking questions tho: PLEASE just ignore questions that have been answered already via official posts or sth like that. It always hurts when answering time gets wasted on questions like (and questions like this WILL come for sure!) "will Patch 2.2.0 come during season 2?" "will the new/reworked sets be season only?"There will always be a few of those; it's best to answer some questions objectively considering what folks may or may not know. Not everyone reads the forums every day, sees every blog, or watches every video.
Yes, there are a few that may be true for, but rarely the majority. Otherwise, those questions wouldn't be asked with such frequency. (Source)
Does this mean that the season coming to an end? or at least your announcing the two week notice?The two week notice will happen independently of this livestream. It is not directly tied to the Q&A. (Source)
Will you take questions from other sources and could I post a couple here?I'm afraid questions will only be posted in Twitch chat for this particular stream. This is mostly to streamline the process; it can get pretty jumbled when we take questions from multiple sources. (Source)
Roland's Set Tweaks
John Yang hinted at his twitter that we might see buffs for the Roland's Set that benefit Sweep Attack. Maybe on the next PTR build, and hopefully all these set changes make the underused sets more competitive on Patch 2.2.

DH Solo Gearing Guide
Natalya85, also known as AOD, has put up a very detailed gearing guide for solo Demon Hunter players aiming to reach high Greater Rift levels. While we have seen quite a few DH guides for 2.1.2, the presentation quality and amount of content is incredible - it had to be highlighted.
I don't want to be in Twitch chat moderator's shoes that day..... Choosing questions from one of the most childish, even if somewhat funny, communities sounds so stupid. I already see a million of kappas and "Why Diablo 3 sucks?"
They're just wastes of time in most cases. They'll answer one or two hardball questions but the rest will be fluffy padding for the sake of saying they interact with the community.
Oh, I think the WoW community gives D3 a run for their money, since they seem to feel "Why doesn't Blizzard care anymore" is a valid and useful question.
Nice video, really clear and concise as to how to gear a DH up.
Turns out mine has almost all that stuff, I just need to tweak a bit more
Right? This is why i wish blizzard would just go back to the old way they made stuff. By themselves. If you didn't like something? Too fucking bad. Its the community that's fucked wow and doing the same thing with D3.
So right there Zakarune.I stopped playing WoW when they made gearing so easy,same with some hardcore achievements like insane,just take hard part out and everybody can get it with hardly any effort.I miss the time when you have to work hard to get gear.Those days you get to top level and in 2 hours fully geared close to top tier of gear.hope they don't do same with diablo.
I find the Q and A's Blizzard does via streaming to be pretty useless most of the time, tend to avoid hard questions.
