Well theres no way I have any screenshot of that. Im playing on the PS4 for one thing, and I dont normally take photos or record video while im playing. This also happened several weeks ago - so I would hope that they wouldnt do anything now after so much time as passed.
Getting leveled up that fast might sound amazing, but I feel like I was handed the keys to a luxury car, when in reality I should still be learning how to drive. I still think my gear is fairly weak and I havnt played long enough to consider myself even an Advanced player. I feel like im greatly under performing my characters potential just due to my lack of gear and experience in general.
But I didnt hack...are you saying that one of the people that I was grouped with had some sort of hack going that greatly increased the amount of experience that I would get also? I guess I thought that a lot of that stuff (like loot, and experienced gained) was client side based on your settings (like what Torment level you have it set to and such).
So I got Diablo III Reaper of Souls Edition for Christmas this year for the PS4. Never played it before - but always heard amazing things about it. Anyways, a couple of weeks ago I was playing my first character I reached 70 with (Demon Hunter). At that time I had just reached level 70 maybe the day before after playing through the entire story mode and such for the first time as well, and I was just starting to get into running Rifts and Bounties. Up until this point, I had been playing offline with a local friend who leveled up with me at the same time as well, so we were both the same level/paragon level.
One night I decided to try out the online match making system for running some Rifts. I set the difficulty to Torment 3 and was matched with another group of 2-3 people. I dont recall what all their paragon levels were, but I do recall one of them was Paragon 10,000. They started running normal rifts and I was more or less just along for the ride at that point. Everyone was moving much faster than me and destroying everything before I could even try and kill it. I was much more focused on picking up look at that point....until I started noticing my Paragon level going up...rapidly. I went into this Rift with a Paragon level around 38 and by the end of this 1 Rift, my Paragon level had skyrocketed to over 1800. We finished the Rift, I went back into town, and more or less logged out for the night. To be clear, I went from around Paragon level 38 to 1800+ in LESS than 10min.
Since then, I have never even come close to experiencing that same thing. My friend who was leveling up with me still seems to level up that Paragon level at a normal rate, and I have even ran his character through several Rifts online with other Paragon level 10k players, and nothing has even come close to what I experienced. I also have not leveled up my Paragon level even once since then because it takes such a huge amount of experience to level up at that point. Ive maybe going 1/2 of 1 level so far since then playing on a semi casual basis.
So, my question is....what the hell happened?! How did my Paragon level jump so high so fast...and why has that experience never happened again with either my characters, or my now much lower level friends characters? Was this a bug or something else?
