Nah, it's right. 300 season going to 990 > 991 non season sounds right. I'm 671 non season and 271 season and it puts me at 677 (6 levels) non season.Quote from ru aware brahthat paragon chart doesn't seem right after 800 every level is 122.4 mil
say you end the season with paragon 300
which is 626mil so you should get about 5 levels if you've made it over 800 on nonseason but the calculator says you only get 3
626mil/122.4 is 5. What's worse is say you've got paragon 990 on nonseason your 300 seasonal only translate to 1 level. it should still be 5 unless I don't understand. Am I missing something? -

The difference is MoJ + TnT is REQUIRED for a successful pet build. Furnace is NOT required for this build, as it doesn't focus on killing elites - that's just a bonus. Also, as previously mentioned, with the same amount of gold find a pet build will not bring in the same amount of gold per hour because the damage spread is not as good.Quote from Fablewynd
Yeah, horses for courses. Not to demean MHM's build, it clearly works. I suppose, for me, Anthony's guides just feel more entertaining to watch since he really gets excited by the game. There just seems to be more enthusiasm there. It's not that hard to put together, however. MoJ+T&T is no harder to find than a nice Furnace (and although Sunder was offered as an alternative, it can't compare to that Furnace for the Elite clear.) Again, horses for courses.Quote from Zero(pS)
I'm inclined to agree with this ^Quote from MeatHeadMikhail
He has a lot more gold find but not nearly raking in the appropriate amount per hour ... because it's a pet build. Swarm/Pestilence/Toxin has a better damage spread than any other skill in the game.
With better gold-find rolls/items, I believe MHM's build would gather more gold/hour. I also believe it's easier to put together the featured build than that Pet-focused one (which has some rare items - MoJ, T&T... SK and TotD, to an extent).
Not to demean that particular build, but I believe it's more interesting featuring something with a specific focus on maximizing gold find, because that can either be a limiting factor for seasonal players looking for perfect rolls and getting into the million+ enchant costs, as well as for players coming back. Or for those who just got the expansion (or who got UEE and want to work towards removing that factor).
His build is just a basic pet build + gold find. This build is specifically optimized for gold find and the xp that goes with it. -

Aug 5, 2014MeatHeadMikhail posted a message on Blue Posts Roundup, Junger Theory TestingPosted in: News
Farming a cache on a strength character and opening it on a dex character will give you items with dex rolls. I think there's a blue post somewhere confirming that. However, there's no confirmation regarding class-specific items in caches (like quivers, sources, etc) or how legendaries are generated. But the other part is easy to test if you're not lazy.Quote from eulynn
I believe this is still a matter of some debate. I know I have heard of people earning caches on their main and stashing them for an alt with a different mainstat and the alt hets useful items.Quote from Drarlor
Isn't the loot of the cubes assigned as you get the item instead of when you open it?
I have also seen people copy characters to PTR with caches, and opening them yields totally different contents on live and PTR- Though you can't really judge based on that, you would think that if the items were, in fact, already determined they would be the same after you copied your character to PTR. -
Aug 5, 2014MeatHeadMikhail posted a message on Blue Posts Roundup, Junger Theory TestingI think people jump to conclusions and start typing before actually watching the videos. As others have pointed out (and myself several times), I just wanted to see if there was any correlation with doing things differently ('the junger way') vs. standard farming. Yes, the sample size is limited, and no I'm not going to post every time I pop 25 caches, but what prompted me to initially do this mini-series were the claims of people finding rorgs left and right, which is simply not the case. I've tried several different ways of doing this, and nothing points to any more legendaries or rorgs from caches, with the only benefit - as others have also noted - being that you get more bounties done in less time so you give up world drop legendaries, mats, gems, etc, for more chances at a rorg due to having a larger number of caches. That's all. Don't read into it too much!Posted in: News

Hey guys, today I go over the general Invoker playstyle for mid tier greater rifts - timing rotations, build/gear variations, and other things to consider depending on what you're doing. PS. Please disregard the commentary about Endless Walk - both setups are good, with the latter more for higher tiers (specifically on Rift Guardian), whereas SoJ/Unity with Hellfire amulet is better for lower tiers/speed farming. Enjoy & discuss!

G49 Invoker
Hey guys, today I clear G49. No changes over the last tier. Even faster than the last one at just under 4 minutes (it was a solid rift though), so I should be able to hit around 55 before making additional changes. I talk about the paragon grind while clearing it. Enjoy, discuss, and be on the lookout for the next tier!

The game can be (and usually is) hacked on console, since it's offline. If you want to play legit, play it on PC.

Hey guys, today I show a very low gear requirement speed farm build using Norvald's + Akkhan. Check it out if you want to clear rifts at 175% movement speed indefinitely along with insta-killing elite packs. Enjoy & discuss!

G48 Invoker
Hey guys, today I clear G48. No changes over the last tier. Took just over 4 minutes so I feel with the changes I made recently the next few tiers should be speed farm territory. Enjoy, discuss, and be on the lookout for the next tier!

G62 Fire UE
Hey guys, today I clear G62. No changes over the last tier and recorded a few hours into the patch so ignore leaderboard placement. I talk about more general changes this patch along with tileset prediction. Enjoy, discuss, and be on the lookout for the next tier!

G47 Invoker
Hey guys, today I clear G47. No changes over the last tier. This one is a bit 'clicky' so my bad - I'm exploring options for a quieter mouse that's also comfortable (I have long fingers). Enjoy, discuss, and be on the lookout for the next tier!

Hey guys, today I want to get eyes on something I consider a minor exploit with the potential to be serious if some individuals smarter than myself find a way to 'optimize' it. Basically the two new Action Combat buffs - speed and resource generation - can be preloaded and persist upon entry (and re-entry) into greater rifts. The former isn't a big deal since you can get the same buff inside a grift, but the latter is potentially game-breaking as it's essentially a 1 minute channeling pylon for classes that burn through primary resource. Enjoy, discuss, and I don't recommend you do this just in case!

G46 Invoker
Hey guys, today I clear G46. I spent a few hours gearing since the last tier so there are massive changes - Doombringer, Justice Lantern, Convention of Elements, Hellfire amulet, Spiker with Provoke/Hit Me, and nearly 100 paragon levels. The result - sub 5 minute clear which should carry me into 50+ without any further changes. Enjoy, discuss, and be on the lookout for the next tier!

Hey guys, today I clear G61. No changes over the last tier and recorded a few hours into the patch so ignore leaderboard placement. While clearing I discuss some general changes to rifts - density, map layouts, monster restrictions, pylon fishing, and more. Enjoy, discuss, and be on the lookout for the next tier!

G45 Invoker
Hey guys, today I clear G45. No changes over the last tier but I will need to go back to regular rifts soon to find better gear so I'm not struggling as much with toughness, along with running some low level grifts to level up Boyarsky's Chip. Enjoy, discuss, and be on the lookout for the next tier!

Hey guys, today I briefly show how much gold you can get in a T10 Vault with a reasonable amount of gold find gear (around 10,000%). It's a good use for the copious Puzzle Rings you're bound to find and particularly important for Empowered Rifts. Enjoy & discuss!
