Happy Farming in Season 4! If you have any questions leave a comment below or you can catch me live @ twitch.tv/datmodz. Shout-out to Kripparrian for the original "Healer Build"
Throughout all of your gear, you get a bunch of exp boosts, (50% on Cain's, 35% on Hellfire, 20% on Born's, etc.) and all together you can get 227% bonus exp, which is multiplicative in grifts. In 2.3, the bonus exp is now shared with the group, so that everyone can get a ton of exp, not just one person.
Hope that sums it up better!
What i wanna know, is if the "shared" exp is split amongst the party or if its added to each char in the party. By that i mean, is the say 227% divided upon 4 ppl or does each person get 227% exp boost? Also does that mean, if 2 ppl have 227% and 2 ppl have 43%, will the grp have a total exp boost of 540% or am i getting it wrong?
Tyvm in advance and sry if i'm stating it in a way thats confusing =S
Wow you totally ripped off Quin69
Quin didn't even come up with that build either some one else had one up for months on the ptr.
Can anyone help me see how this adds up to 227%?
What I see:
Total = 217%
Hellfire Ring gives 45%. I don't know why it says 35 on there.
Forget 25% from pools
If you are gonna use hellfire's amulet which passive would you want DatModz?
Given that his build lists Unity as an alternative passive. I'd assume that. Alternatives would be NDE to help with molten affixes/hammer smashes. Or Sixth Sense and replacing Esoteric Alteration with Gogok ( or just not using esoteric period). Otherwise Exalted Soul isn't terrible since the build runs less CDR than the non xp variant you can sometimes get a little spirit hungry and a deeper pool can help smooth out the experience.
I personally like Gogok + exalted soul when running GR 55, but like NDE and/or Esoteric Alteration for anything higher.YMMV.
how is this seasonal?
wouldnt it b more beneficial to drop crudest boots out of cube and equip them and put leorics in the cube for the 100% effect? u can equip a cains helm to still get the set bonus
Correct. In this case you get to choose from cube Leoric's Crown or Crudest. Crudest always has the same buff so it is better to use the crown from the cube and a real crudest to get the 100% from leoric's.
Spirit is regenerated actively Epiphany - Insight and passively via Chant of Resonance. I've made an optimized version of the XP Healer Monk build: teh_hahn - Best in Slot (BiS) Experience Healer Monk
My build contains this link to d3planner.com, with the BiS versions of all items.
