Since the RoS was released i have been playing a shittonne. Except the last 3 days, i have been playing atleast 10 hours a day. Nonstop farming rifts on t1-3. Since day 1 i have been trying to get Jekangbord+Gyrfalcon's foote+Holy gear. 3 days ago i finnaly got the jekangbord. Over 12000 shards spent.
Atm im running around with lightning hammerdin spec since that is what i got gear for.
The thing is. I see people run t6 now Having a shitload of items they can swap around. People having all kind of different weapons. Throughout 1287(number i got from my ingame profile) rifts. Ive got _1_ flail. 2 handed. Fate of the fell. Ive got 1 sword. The blade of prophecy. Thats the only 2 crusader weapons ive got. in that many rifts
Ive yet to find a useable holy amulet. Not one... And by useable. I dont mean a crazy one with perfect stats. i mean one with holy dmg. Str and either cc or chd.
Ive played more than many people that can now do t6 in my clan. I can do t4 rifts. But not efficiently enough to be worth it
How am i supposed to keep going when nothing goes my way ? Its not that i do a lot of stupid shit and ruin my gear. Its the fact that i simply do not get anything no one in the world could save with enchanting. Where do i get my motivation ?
I have not found a Neck with three out of the four stats: Str, Chd, CC and/or % Fire Damage.
And I have gained 450hours played on Barb since RoS Release.
Do you see me complain? Nope. If you dont like it, post some useful feedback and not "MIMIMI, everyone else got so much better loot, game unfair!!!1111" Or just quit the game.
Also in case you need/want motivation, play with friends for fun and not for legendaries.
I hate to say this, if "over 12,000 shards spent" is a lot to you.... your efficiency is god awful and idk wtf youve been doing in your "10 hours a day since release". Im pushing 40,000 shards spent and don't have a character geared to do past t4 either. I choose to keep playing and enjoying the game for what it is. Diablo 3 has always been about people getting gear faster or slower than someone else, and sometimes some people not ever getting some pieces. Its the nature of the game. Dont like it? Dont play it.
12.000 shards in over 1200 rifts? There is some flaw in there - 1200 x 40 = 48.000 shards and that's assuming minimum drop rate without ever doing bountys.
He said that was how much he spent trying to get that shield and not how many he had spent in total, presumably others were used on other slots.
This is Correct. Its 12000 shards spent in a row on shields. Not obtained in total.
I have done a lot of Bounties aswell. i got a trifecta Ring of Royal grandeur. A lot of time went in that.
But all in all. i would have traded it in for a few different items giving me some build diversity.. not forced to go lightning day in and day out
Im not looking for sympathy. It was part a rant, part a question if anyone is in the same boat. I realize now that my original post should have been reworded.
Anyhow. Only one thing to do. And that is keep playing. hopefully my luck will turn. But atm. Its probably the worst in the history of gaming. Compared the time spent ingame
The game is 50% rng and 50% grinding since RoS. The only thing you can do is install a bot and let it run 24/7. Then maybe you will see some good items over time.
I have leveled all classes from 60 to 70, geared two of them to be able to easily farm T1, working on my wizard now who is T2 capable atm. All in all I have found ZERO set pieces and ZERO legendaries with orange text ( that actually have potentially game changing abilities instead of just a bit more stats ). I guess I'll have to grind anpother 250 hours before seeing one... But I gave up on it to be honest, Diablo 3 is a game for people who have way too much time to waste.

edit: 300hrs played on DH since RoS and I've not seen one amulet worth using
Just accept it for what it is and if you want a fair game, play something else.
