DiabloFans

Thanks for these guides, very helpful. Most of your skill selection was spot on. I used slightly different gearing on most of them though.

I ran into a couple of bugged dungeons along the way :

Raiment would fail me for not getting to the chest on random pylon clicks with nemesis bracers. Even on the first pylon! Had to eventually just hope the first 2 pylons I clicked did not fail me and rush to the chest without clicking others.

Immortal Kings was acting weird with the standard Raekor+IK charge build. Even though I had WotB & Ancients out killing elites would fail me, once I didn't have WotB on while killing an elite and it did not fail me... Swapped to your gear setup and it was fine after that. Might have been the Raekor messing it up.

Sunwuko failed me for going to 1 stack of sweeping wind.

Dungeons I recommend to take friends with to help kill off the remaining mobs once your objectives are complete :

Ulianas . Jade . Rolands . Wastes . Raekor . Delseres . Raiment .

I found these ones pushed me to the time limit every time I tried them, they are possible solo with a really good monster layout. With a friend they can be done on the first time if you know how to get the objectives.

1) Rush and fight elites only

Yes

2) Open chests

Yes

3) Pick up non legendary stuff like mats, salvage fodder

DB only

4) Pick up orange progress orbs from elite packs

No

5) Close the rift immediately after guardian or go till the end

Go till the end, only farming for DB atm, got a huge stash of keys already.

All set effects will be retroactive.

Some legendaries can just be reforged.

Some you will need to find again.

500% of your vit as thorns how can that be 50k?

Average vit will be 10 000, similar to main stat. 500% = 5x, so 50k. With the passive its +100k to your detail screen.

There is a non-standard difficulty based on the most recent dungeon I tried.

UE Dungeon :

Elites have a 1 hit KO of Jailer. Twice while trying to round up mobs to get the more than 20 per Multishot have they done 1 hits.

From 2 different dungeons mob life is around 20~30mil so it feels easier than t6.

Edit : To find the dungeons and hints yourself : go to the new Leorics Manor area and there is a new pedestal with a book on it that will drop hints depending on the 6pc you are currently wearing.

So I'm reading the clues from Diablofans, but where in game do you get these clues?

I've completed the Shadow's Mantle Set perfectly and it said so while I was still in the set dungeon.

It doesn't TP you out of the dungeon after you are complete though, and now I need some sort of indication somewhere or someone that I can talk to to show that its complete....

Or are we supposed to remember all ±18 set dungeons that we have/haven't completed?

Edit : If you fail the set dungeon just walk back to the entrance and use the green portal and you can enter again instead of having to get to a specific place from town all over again.

You cannot change items or skills inside a set dungeon.

Edit 2 : Found it!!

There is a bookstand in the new area of Leorics Manor that will drop a hint for whichever 6 piece set you are wearing. To see the green portals you need to be wearing your 6pc.

Its just a windows issue or ram issue if you are able to boot until windows tries loading/doing stuff.

Take a HDD with some space (±30gb) and have only that one plugged in. Install windows onto that. If it fails during install its most likely a stick of ram has gone bad. If it installs then switch off, plug in the SSD, but keep the HDD booting to the new windows. Get all your data you need off the old windows SSD then format it. You can then try to reinstall windows onto the SSD and have everything set up the way it was. Maybe (after pulling the SSD out and finding the model) search how to check consistency of your SSD so you can find out how much life it still has in it.

From there its up to you. Your hardware sounds okay and will run everything quite fine for a long time still. There was some pretty good advice earlier on different parts if you are looking for some upgrades.

Prides Fall to Cindercoat :

-1x Defensive Stat

+1x %Fire Element Stat

Changes 23~30 RCR from (5s no dmg) to permanent.

RCR + CDR should still be the same.

@Orangeshield : The Etrayu should come out on top based on those 2 in the screenshot. The 5% attack speed on the Buriza is not as useful as the %cold from the Etrayu.

You will end up with lower base damage but with a higher elemental damage and faster attack speed.

I have no idea how well the pierce works on the Buriza though, doesn't work on rockets/grenades/cluster arrow/evasive fire so I find it does nothing.

@timoseewho : 2h Xbow has the highest base damage on the weapon out of all the bows and xbows.

eg the Calamity above : 1473~2390 Damage

Buriza (Yours) : 2493~3049 Damage

Using the same skill (CA) the Calamity can never get a crit as high as the Buriza (not factoring in MfD) as the damage is not even as high as the Buriza's lowest damage. The 1h's and bows gives you more attack speed to make up for the damage loss per shot.

Hi guys,

Hope some of you can help/recommend as I have a few items combos I could use.

First my DH : http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Ninjatsu-1322/hero/48660360

Currently running a standard Cold Cluster with Etrayu + Hexing. Using Travelers + Compass for some awesome looking CHC/CHD(50/560) numbers.

Options of Weapon : Aracane Barb / Etrayu / Calamity (all ancient + gift)

Ring : SoJ (Cold/Phys) / Unity (CHD/Cooldown+Socket, no main)

Amulet : Haunt Of Vaxo. Other comparable ones are current Travelers and a lightning Etlich/Blackthornes.

No available Prides Fall yet, and I like the stutter step of Hexing.

I have not spent much time on solo grifts since before 2.1.2, ancients and the marauder change. I managed a 40 back then to get onto leaderboard and have just left it since then.

Ran a few solo grifts during PTR and was doing 44s with ease, with the broken promises + SoJ and running Phys CA. 1 or 2 deaths a grift without the unity.

"The Gelatinous Sire splits into smaller goblins, the Gilded Baron helps satisfy your never-ending greed for gold, and the Insufferable Miscreant has friends to help him run interference."

Sounds like the blue one splits into smaller goblins, most likely only 1 of them is going to drop loot.

Gold one is going to rain gold.

The final one sounds like its going to spawn elites/mobs to delay us. This might slow you down when you find a goblin party and a few of these are hiding inside.

We will be able to see how they really work once the PTR is up. With the new ones the chance at finding a shard goblin is lower.

Got one on season 2, 6%Crit + socket. Rolled 43% Cdmg so far.

I don't use the ice armour skill yet...not sure what skill to take out without losing utility and dmg.

I do have a nice ancient Rimeheart and a mediocre ancient Azurewrath. Hoping for some Frostburns and then I'll try out a cold support wiz.

Char Profile

Yeah, also been thinking about this a bit.

Crafted a few Aughilds and a couple weapons.

Weapons will be a definite first, I found Pants/Boots/Shoulders to be the next best as they might have 3 non % stats giving you 3 stats of ancient value.

Unity is not going to be upgraded.... I have 2 that simply will not be changed : 6%crit, 50%critD / 8%cooldowns , 15%elite, socket. Actually scratch that, if I get an ancient with the same stats I'll wear it for the extra orange border ;p

Crafting will be the go to at the beginning of seasons while you are still searching for items, but IMO it will be ONLY for weapons. Wasting ±80mats for a 10% chance on a crafted piece of armour that is not your set piece...rather save the mats for enchanting.
The only ones to benefit would likely be the tanks. PTR is very kind, its going to be a real chore to grind all the mats for your tank.

Ola gamers,

Looking for an idea of what changes I might need to make on the next few pieces of gear.
http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Ninjatsu-1322/hero/8242685

Basically I farm mp2/3 as a standard for Demonic Essence, mp5/6 for Ubers, mp7 for keys.
I can solo Azmodan on mp10, though thats like a 5min+ Spinning Ballet.

Basically for a long time the AH gear that would upgrade me has been generally over 20mil a piece with some ranging into 100. Then it happened, more than 10min of AH use will put me into a coma until the next day. I literally pass out in front of the computer at any time of the day, I simply cannot stare at the AH and price check. I get as far as checking on 2 items before passing out.
That was before 1.07, luckily I have crafted a few items I use now.

I think I should start with an IK Belt, but I don't want to lose stats (a few 0.x% LS is fine) and I want to get a decent Frenzy/Bash 10%+. Pricing has kept me away....

I just want to find out from others, what you think would be the best item/items to upgrade, or craft.

My skill setup is slightly abnormal. I like WW as I find way more survivability than HotA, but I love the damage/hit and the satisfying destruction when killing any number of monsters. But I find I like the staple of Impunity, as a Fury generator, Allies bonus, or mp5+. So I gave up on WotB (CRAZY!!), well actually its more fun, you have to concentrate on mp4+ when theres Jailer/Frozen, knockback slows and could possibly cause alot of trouble, Elites become fun again. If I had WotB I would probably be trying to do 3~5 elite groups at once, but that just doesnt have the fun factor that Jailer/Frozen introduces and the enemies are normally slow at following... Any recommendations for this would be nice too.
