>no necromancer still

>Memes are memes because they're not true
Assblasted thread?
>201x
>playing this horsedung
Diablo 3 was pretty fun at launch but the game progressed into a tedious grind for streamers and nolife losers who adore streamers. They removed every single challenging aspect of the game and replaced it with time.
Dont even reply because most of you are toddlers who didnt play d3 at launch and has no idea that bosses and some affixes required some level of skill and strategy.
As said, dont reply every challenging affix was removed. Bosses were nerfed and berserk timers were introduced.
>played at launch
>got bored eventually, quit
>recently started RoS
>all these new difficulties
>try "Master"
>almost impossible to die
>faceroll everything
I don't understand.
>>333522808
Difficulty doesn't start until Torment.
And you will die in the game sooner or later, because a Arcance faggot elite pops up.
>>333522898
I'm sure there's challenge to be had at Torment+, but what even is the point of anything less than "Master"
ROS took everything wron about d3 vanilla and made it worse.
ROS is fun for 3 weeks a year and then is utterly unplayable. It also has very passionate shills that spam about how great it is even though there are like 5 active players.
What's even worse is they are integrating d3 stuff into wow. Rip wow, good night sweet prince
Reminder that if you aren't playing hardcore you aren't playing the game right.

Beginner difficulty.
It's Blizzard we're talking about, their games are marketed to a audience between 8 and 85 years old.

SOMEBODY PLEASE GIVE ME A MELEE COLD BUILD
I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M DOINGI thought about transitioning to a poison/acid build but I already have a low Occultist that I'll probably use that Dreeg forum build for.
>>333520903
started playing a new character from like about a week ago, on and off
currently trying to pull off a pet WD (para 100) on torment IV, it's a good game if you are addicted to drops and grinding.
looking to drop/upgrade from rare/gamble that one belt that summons a fetish everytime you hit with a spell so I can get rid of that shitty passive.

>because a Arcance faggot elite pops up.
>got really fucking lucky and get that amulet that heals you for 25% everytime you got hit by arcane/holy damage
>don't care about arcane orbs anymore and just stand in green/red crap and DPS like a madman
a shame it doesn't have a slot though, the re-roll cost is fucking insane, I don't want to grind that much for a single player game.
>>333523448
>melee
>cold
shit man I dunno, arc/soldier? I don't find cold synergizing much with anything, of the three different elements that's the one used the least
>>333524161
Yeah I know. I'm surprised that I can't really find much of anything on it. I got some low-level drops with + to Night's Chill but I don't think it's as good as I figured it could be.
At this rate, I may as well convert my character into a poison/acid or a generic physical/bleed/int trauma type.
I wouldn't mind eventually making a Cold caster instead but I can't even find a build on that either.

How is the grind on grim dawn? I want to play it but I don't want to spend another gorillion hours to farm a 1% item drop in a game where I would mostly play with myself.
>>333524881
I don't know specific drop rates. Drop rates in general received a huge 'overhaul' and improvement like one or two patches ago.

Why were the Wehrmacht such bros?
I wish I could have visited Germanybefore the refugees started pouring in
>>333525084
thanks for the reply
>>333525573
Sorry it wasn't very helpful but that's a bit of a vague question as well.
Item drops are much MUCH better currently than they ever have been. All you need to know.
Blizzard needs to figure out something new for players to do in this game.
GR100 is reached, gems are capped at 100.
Having more builds which can handle GR100+ isn't enough.
>>333526054
Something like Borderlands OP level but in a not retarded way and possibly with an expansion pack involved.
I'd say a brand new campaign focused on high level, fully geared characters.
Or go full grim dawn and let us mix classes and skills on characters.
>>333523448
Well shit
>go back to my ranged fire build
>one-shot practically every normal mob in the few minutes I've been playing
>FIRE
Yeah I think I'll pick this back up instead of making a new dude.
>>333524881
I haven't even hit level cap, but so far not much of a grind. Lvl 50 right now, certain chests are guaranteed to drop a legendary, which is great
>>333520903
>still no character building
Allocation of stat and skill points was *proven* to not encourage character building. People went and looked for guides so they "wouldn't fuck up their characters"
>sets sets sets sets
"These things change how you approach and play the game and I don't like it"
>no necromancer still
1) Necromancer was utter shit. The skills were 90% bad, or only worth 1 point dips. It was near impossible to play him as a 'caster' without either abusing the retarded as fuck 1.10 runewords, or constantly chugging potions. The other 'play' style he had was "summon things and stand back and do nothing, barely interacting with the game you 'play'"
2) You have the witch doctor, it is better than the necromancer ever was. You are complaining about "visuals".

Substantiate that. Be specific.

>Help I am committing the fallacy of personal incredulity
Just because you find something hard to believe, doesn't mean it isn't true.
>>333524881
>How is the grind on grim dawn?
It's decent for equipment, brutal for ally faction status, and much worse for enemy faction status. But then again you have to play through it 3 times. Still, if you don't grind on purpose you'll not be revered by any of the allies factions by level 70.
>>333529060
>You have the witch doctor, it is better than the necromancer ever was
That's not true at all.

Skeletons were weak as piss without a billion skillpoints, skeleton mages were useless, golems did no damage, revives could be okay but were on a timer. 3/4 of these revolved around a shitty corpse mechanic. The amount summonable could cause framerate issues for other players.
Zombie dogs are functionally equivalent to skeletons / skeleton mages, but are actually y'know good. Sycophants & fetish army also fit in as skeletons / revives, but are once again - good. Neither of these are tied to a shitty mechanic. Gargantuans are insanely powerful, unlike golems.
Haunt & Locusts are better damage over time spells than the necromancer ever had access to. Spirit barrage is roughly equivalent to bone spirit, but y'know not shit. Wd has access to a ton of other spells that are both flavorful and good. A lot of WD spells have secondary buff / debuffs to them that function better than curses.
