Helltooth Lag Fixes
The revamped Helltooth set is causing some lag issues and devs are working to fix it as soon as possible. A few hotfixes were already deployed, but they're going to optimize the set even further in the future. Read the blue post below.

We plan to make further optimizations in the near future that should help, but we want to be sure there isn't a loss of power as a result.

Reddit Q&A Recap
If you missed the Reddit Q&A with game developers, make sure to check our recap and summary post from yesterday. Quite a few interesting tidbits of information including which sets will be reworked in Patch 2.4 and more.
Barbarian Guides Thread
The badass Barbarian streamer Chainer has put together an incredible thread on our forums. It goes over some of the strongest Barbarian builds and needed items for different activities in Patch 2.3.
An incredible source of information for those looking to improve their Barbarian knowledge and optimize their builds!
Hey guys Chainer here from twitch.tv/chainerfails
If you have any questions or want to hang out stop by my live stream.
This is a list of items with proper stats that will be useful for the barb in one or more build variants.
If I missed any items or stat variants of items leave a post below and i'll try to update this thread.
(Note: secondary resists of physical and lightning are good on items that don't use all res for grift progression. Generally 2+ pieces of physical and 2 pieces of lightning are good stats to aim for)
Kanai's Legendary Roll Sample
MeatHeadMikhail has made a video showcasing the RNG from Kanai's Cube ability to transform a Rare item into a Legendary over 25 upgrades. An interesting watch for those who wonder how many Death's Breaths it might take them to get a specific item with that feature of the Cube. Check it out
i'm unlucky, lvl 102 and still no full set ,try the cube to transmute set part items to other set part items, but in the end it's very costly and no luck , because it always rerolled items i already have.

The cube can transmute to set item or just legendary?
It took me 400 transmutations to get an ancient dagger of darts (was looking for that or an ancient Starmetal Kukri). I used up all the mats I had been stacking for a year. I got about 40 daggers of darts and 20+ SMKs before I finally got an ancient one. Was so so so PISSED it took so long.
About reroll, if i have an ancient bow and i want to reroll some crappy properties, the bow will still be ancient or will turn to normal legendary?
Sad...
btw, ty a lot for the answer and for the vids! helped me a lot, cause i didnt know exactly how somethings work on cube...
