The point is that people think Paragon points is something everyone should have and easy to earn. That is not what a paragon point is. Your paragon level shows your dedication, power, and the way you spent time ingame. Nobody accepts your 300 paragon points for a 60GRift because, let's be honest, you won't even have two of the four main stats from offense finished. There is a huge difference between having + 700 mainstat and not having it. Having a high paragon level requires you to do stronger and harder GRifts, and people just want to do 60 GRifts like it was a normal rift, and that's not okay, because you're not dedicating yourself to the leaderboards, even. If you don't dedicate yourself, you won't get good at a game. The principle applies everywhere else.

I'd like to talk about how easy it seems that spambots register and post useless, space-consuming threads and spam people. Maybe a way could be arranged to stop this from happening? Maybe a registration confirmation email that had a code you'd have to type in a registration box, or something. Though not as effective as certain other methods like reality check and captchas, it could be a good start.

(Thank you for moving this thread to the right Sub-Forum!)

Upvoted! Definitely helpful to see how much you're going to advance in Paragons after season ends!

elemental damage increase is really really important

think of it this way. assuming your int is 10,000, 1000 more int will only increase the damage by 10% (although it does increase a little bit of AR as well) but only a few ancient items even have 1000int as an option. Also if your level is above 800, since you will only be increasing int with each paragon level increase, the damage increase through int will become less and less efficient. so does element damage increase do alot of work? absolutely. However, if you are using 4 skills with 4 different elements, I would rather choose int over element damage.

A very important thing you need to remember with frozen orb delsere build is that not only do the arrows that shoot out from the orb deal damage, but when the orb explodes, after it finishes traveling, the explosion also deals damage. So essentially what it means is you want to keep the distance between you and minions far enough so that not only will the arrows hit minions but the explosion from the orb will also hit minions. That means zei could be a better option than botp since zei can also stun minions.

Hey Sedivh,

Team Aftershocks are recruiting, were friendly and social, accept players of all ranges and keen to build our playerbase. We have a Teamspeak server
too to make it easier to chat while playing. Our players range from new starters up to para 730+, and we have a few wizards that would be glad of the competition and grouping to hunt for those elusive items together!

Visit our website (www.team-aftershocks.com) and post in our wecome page to apply, but ill also add you in game (I'm Eddache#2909) if you want to know more!

See you in Sanctuary!

Edd

Maybe Thorns could be change to be a stat that decreases damage, attack speed, movement speed, and health of enemies. That would be a fun thing to do! What do you think? Wouldn't that make it specialize for people who really want to support like a real tank, by debuffing and taking all the hits for the party/healing others?

Makes a lot of sense actually, since it can be obtained by every class in game, I LIKE IT!!

You're very right. Blizzard already started on that, though! Remember Blizzcon 2k14? Before 2.2, we were always dependant on whether we had a conduit pylon for the guardian or shield, power pylon, any of those. Now most of us can enjoy grifting in the 40s while still laid back. Delsere/Tal Rasha are two sets that are very easy to acquire on a Wizard, and those builds even have multiple options, all of them are viable, too. I hope they do it for all of the sets of the classes...

Absolutely agree!

I feel like the whole point of a set is to differentiate, but yet compete. I see no reason why sets like the Earth set or even Voker set are not viable. I know they have already publicly stated that they are reworking Vokers (which I am highly excited for), and I hope they really make sure to put a focus on getting all sets with a base level of +/- 4 GRift levels of one another. Obviously the supporting legendary items can widen that gap a bit, but this would at least afford people the option of playing multiple builds rather than the one and only build that gets you into the highest levels.

It's a funbuild. Same stuff as the cowlevel, it's fun, but not efficient. So have fun leaping on a horde of cows! Guess it's okay at best in rifts, but no way it's concidered fast. In grifts, i doubt you'll even find a group

This is sort of why I hate Grifts, they ruined build diversity and promote efficiency only for at least 90% of the player base. I find that this makes the game very run down and mundane. I miss when people had to look to T6 only, and each build was effective in T6, hope we get back to a form of play where every set is cool, and every set can clear the highest content.

Hi, nephalems.

With Season 2 ending soon, I've created a very light Paragon calculator, so you can see how much progress you'll have at the end. Paragon cap is 1000, but it will be enough for most of the users.

Enjoy and happy farming
