That is true, but I stoped playing DH because my shooting was ridiculous comparing to what sentries did, now this buffing is pretty great because now I will do more dmg than sentries or the same dmg as 5 sentries combined and yes, solo for this sucks, as least for higher grifts, so I guess it will be only viable with some tank which is fine I personally do not like to solo

It was too much to give sentries +100% so they will remove that in next ptr patch and give us +100% per sentry instead of 40%.

I could even see why. Using kridershot, you could just plant 5 sentries at elite / RG and run around wall and hide and just shoot at wall and let sentries do the job AGAIN even if you are 200% stronger, so with this upcoming change, you deal the same amount of dmg as all your sentries combined and that is crazy

kinda off topic idk, do you guys think that the current place of 2pc and 4pc are ok?

would it be fair if they interchanged them wherein the two piece gives you the pet family?

seems like you just got your wish granted, they will change the set

Sentries will no longer receive the 100% damage, only the player, nerfed already.

I am not sure if it will be a nerf, cause our shooting was 200% with 5 sentries and that takes some time to plant and I was having problems planting 5 sentries and actually having them all shoot at mobs even on gr42 and I sure did shoot at mobs, so now I will be more than double stronger and sentries will be double weaker so hmm, not sure it is a nerf but hell, we need to test but my bear was doing around 250mil, now it will do 600mil ? hugh

hmm, does EA benefit from depth diggers when I use kridershot ?

not just that sentries show EA, they still shoot their bolts + EA

yep, numbers do look insane but in grifts you have very limited resources and you can not one shot anything but anything will one shot you so again much running and less casting so I think it is ok

but, pair this with tiki wd... hmmm

I just tried 3 builds, cold, fire, lightning, all with kridershot and bombardier,

I can confirm that also elemental arrow gets 40% dmg per sentry. it says ingame on set, generators and spenders get buff

For cold I used maelstrom+ballistic, I saw up to 270 mil crits, for fire I used loaded for bear, up to 220 mil crits but much harder to play solo since no cc, for lightning I used dazzling arrow and stun elemental arrow and it was great cc but crits up to 190 mil

Also I noticed that sentries shot their regular bullets and if I shoot spender, sentry shoots both

I did not play much, ping too high to play, I tried 3 trials and I easily got 41, I did not finish because it was too hard for ping and I died too much and this respawn is idiotic, I get into map, I get 2 insane elites, I die easily and I can not revive at checkpoint instead I get +5 sec for each death up to 30 sec, so I die 6 times and I need to wait 30 sec !!!

I do not think this setup is going to get nerfed because since you must be moving much sentries and you will not shoot too much so you need so big crits to compare solo with other classes. But real power for DH lies in party with some tank. I personally hated grifts so I did not play much, I did not go solo over gr38 but but those 3 41 grifts I would finish easily if I had nerves and ping would be better, elites are going down fast

All in all, I like the change, I did get a little rusty for DH since my favorite now is charge barb but I think me and my first love DH are gonna spend some good time together once 2.1.2 gets live

The PTR is not even out for 24 hours and you seem to have the need to post a video about the changes. One may get the impression that you just do this in order to push your YT channel. Your initial post lacks profound information regarding the rules about videos. Testing new things needs time and I highly doubt this can be done within one day.

trolling
maybe he made so much good and useful videos up to now so he has people respecting his videos and find his explanations very useful. He saves time for many not to go and search & read to understand stuff. Also here with this ptr, maybe for someone is better to hear what he has to say rather to read, or maybe like myself, both ? Who gives a damn if he wants to boost YT channel, do you pay for watching video ? No you do not so why trolling ..

relax, you still have at least one month to place sentries so you will get bored by than and 2.1.2. will come to try new set

too much negativity here, guys, my main is DH also and I am bored with planting sentries and running around so I made all classes and now enjoy diversity, why do most of you cry when you did not event test it, I doubt blizzard will nerf DH just like that, they will give us power that we need but will be much more active. I remember how many times I just tried to use kridershot and shot and just abandon it when I realize that dmg coming from it is ridiculous. Now, all will come from it and skill will matter as it used to matter in vanilla

I think the problem is you might have FC'd twice.

your first FC executed and basically gives you another charge but you unintendedly charged again on the same spot, too quickly. happens to me a lot(not fc pro)

if this can happen than this is my problem, I tend to hit fast so sometimes I end up with 4 sec cooldown and I can die there I must investigate this

what is cdr that is a must for perma charge on 2 mobs?

and what is for 3 mobs?

4 mob reset: 17.5% CDR (6s vs single target)

3 mob reset: 37.5% CDR (4s vs single target)

2 mob reset: 57.5% CDR (2s vs single target)

thank you guys for answering

hard to explain but hmmm it might have something to do with mobs hitting me, gonna watch for that in the future, because I think it does not happen while I am ignoring pain or in berserker

Also what comes to my mind, sometimes when I have mobs locked and frozen maybe I hit to fast and with my 70-80 ms ping maybe this problem happens, either way, I will look into this mob hitting thing

@angrycoco, sorry you feel like that but I even put smiley in my second post, how did you get to conclusion than I have no manners I just politely answered on your post that even had nothing to do with my question, I did not ask about the second breakpoint and still I did not tell you not to troll my topic cause all replies are welcome to me

correct, do you play the game ? in most cases we get 2 mobs also when I kill them it is better to have highest breakpoint so I can roll 2 mobs and also it is better for single target since 4 sec is way worse than 2 sec

That is not why I wrote this topic, I would like to hear from more experienced barbs if they get "fake charges" often or am I doing something wrong, I mean, I charge into 5 mobs, I should have clear next charge anyhow, but no, I wait my 4 seconds like I did not hit anyone (4 seconds is cooldown for not hitting anyone with highest break point)

hello

After making almost all end game characters (dh, pet wd, jade wd, swk monk, fb wizz, zdps wd and monk) I decided to make fire charge barb although I kinda hated barbs from the beginning of d3

Now it turned to me my favorite character, but only reakor, I also made fire eq and light ww but they do not compare to reakor. With frenzy I also have good single target but I rarely play solo so I take care of almost whole map and buy much time for party to kill RG

now, I am often frustrated with charge, I sit on 56% CDR so gogok takes little to push me to the last breakpoint and there my trouble begins, OFTEN, I hit like 5-6 mobs and I get 4 seconds cooldown, like I did not hit a soul... it pisses me off so much that I want to smash my pc because I am perfectionist

Do I do something wrong or charge mechanic is bugged/broken like whole damn game ? I also tried with 59% CDR without gogok and it is pretty much the same. Ofc this would not be an issue if blizzard could make good rift density but nevertheless even if there are 50 mobs, I reduce them to 3-4 mobs and there problem begins.

Thoughts, thanks

Another interesting fact is that if you want to play barb tank to its full strength blizzard will have to fix their servers. Imagine barb tank in canals map dragging the whole map into wds fear & piranhas and summoning rift boss in less than 5 minutes. That is simply not possible right now because right as you drop the mobs into lightning dhs your server will lag so much that your party will be dead as soon as the lag starts.

I don't think servers lag, it would be client machine, I have one weaker and one brand new beast, on weaker crowded parties lag, but on new beast all work fine ?
