Not sure why u want to skip campaign if u never played it. Its nice to know the story and from where different tilesets are coming. I'm not a big lore fan but well its a content that you will enjoy when u doing it first time. I'd just try to finish the campaign before 9 november, and then make a fresh char on next season with adventure mode unlocked. Campaign also guides you through all the important places in game (bosses etc.) so its experience that will be quite handy when you start doing adventure mode.

If you really want to rush to adventure mode, you should join some communities (there are power leveling communities there), just try to find active one and ask politely on chat. You might not get immediate response, but theres big chance that someone will help you.

blizzard doesnt care about making their game better

sorry

When I watch the video I draw a blank. What's interacting together that's causing the RG to just get deleted like that?

Surprised that Diablo is flooded with bots in 2017. topkek

Gotten 2-3 primals, all on useless legendaries. With how many useless legs there are and how rare primals are, it may as well not even be a feature in the game because the season is going to end before you get one that actually goes into a top build.

If you have an equipped Teleport or Slow Time skill with a rune on, does the Archon version of those spells also benefit from it? Like Safe Passage from Teleport for reduced damage while teleporting around as an archon?

The gold standard for judgement is Greater Rift progression, surely?
I just looked at the Season leaderboard. Top 4-man is tier 89. But in Hardcore, top is tier 73.
Why are Hardcore players so horrible?

On topic: The gap is not 15x or 5x or 3x as much XP. In patch 2.4, the gap was between 2.6 and 1.6 more XP for group play, and since that has been "nerfed" a bit in 2.4.1 with the XP changes in GRs (a gap of 10-15 tiers higher is not as crucial anymore after GR71 due to the XP nerfs) it's probably between 1.5 and 2.0 as much XP. In words: a full group gets about 50% to 100% more XP than solo players if playing efficiently.

With respect to Bagstone - not sure how you equate time invested or efficiency with your standard deviation... it is abundantly clear to anyone who runs Rifts, Bounties,and GR solo that they can't compete with a group running the same torment or GR lvl (whether the grp has synergy or not)... b4 Season 5, I was Top 500 HC Diablo3ladder with one account, now with current mechanics, moving into Season 10, I'm not even listed... it's all due to paragon creep, and grp orgies... numerous bloggers have shown you numbers that do not support your 1.5x multiplier... groups are efficient simply because it is a group... four guys curb stomping a guy will do more dmg more efficiently than one; it stands to reason...
also, you have misconceptions about botting... setting up a bot takes time away from gameplay... a bot running 24/7 helps with materials, running a bot solo for 120 hrs consecutively vs. playing 8 hrs. a day for five days in a group nets 400%-500% less XP for the bot in comparison to manual group play with fewer runs (all torment and GR levels being on par)... the problem with Diablo 3 stems from how Alkaizer capitalized on bonus XP, or exposed its perks for ranking... the game is no longer about LOOT, but PARAGON FARMING... the changes that the devs made are insufficient to restore any semblance of balance... Blizz in their infinite wisdom have perpetuated a style of gameplay based on metas, and the wants of a vocal profiting minority... on a side note, grp play is likely encouraged due to server performance (which is a topic outside this scope)...
I recommend you play solely solo in parallel with another account which is group focused... I guarantee your suppositions won't hold up statistically, and the variance will be huge. The only time solo XP can superceed grp XP is under a specific situation when lvling 1-70.

what are all the top solo builds?

Shouldn't be long until Curse realizes keeping this site up is a money drain, just like the actual game for Blizzard lul

Just let it go. Diablo is dead. ARPGs are not popular which means no smart company is going to invest in them.

This game had lost its future a long time ago. Kripp's review of the anniversary event was very spot on. RIP Diablo. Expectations are now rock-bottom.

ok
