So I got to 70, Damage is around 300k I think?

Honestly it wasn't too bad. At least there's actually something to do at the end game unlike the base game.
>get some sets, upgrade some gems, do some bountys and get some kanais
So basically keep grinding until you get the next shinies that ramp up your number then?

What's the most efficient way to do that? GRift or bounties?
>>
How is the patch for D2? I heard there was a lot of server issues? Or is just because my buddy who patched first happens to live in the boonies?
>>
>>334450603
try and find all the easter eggs and lore books, make different classes, try different builds outside of your comfort zone, up your torment level, try to git gud enough for greater rifts etc
>>
>>334450854
GRifts are pretty much the endgame, keep going higher so you can get more paragon points and gem upgrades and bloodshards so you can get better gear so you can go even higher

fully completing bounties get you items to craft special sets and the books to teach the armorer how to make them but rifts have alot of randomized drops with no garuntees.

I play it for the first 2 weeks in every new season. after that I lose interest. first two weeks you gain upgrades and it's fun, after that it's a paragon farming game and that's boring.
>>
>>334452371
Halls of Agony 2/3 until around level 20, then do rifts until max level. Stick to Hard difficulty, if you find a legendary weapon while levelling, crank up it to Torment and keep decreasing.

As long as you 1 shot white monsters you're fine.
>>
>>334451408
NOT MY MEDIAN.
>>
>>334452371
if you just rush through the campaign at torment 1 at the most you'll definitely hit 70 by the time it's done

otherwise you need friends to powerlevel with
>>
>>334452371

very first thing you do is go to the place where you get Kanai's Cube. you nab the cube, but you also find Kanai's Throne. there's a chest with a 100 dps white weapon. pick that up, its good for ~20 levels. its a 2h axe, so demon hunter need not apply

at level 20, you can find a helmet with a socket in it. keep it rubied up as much as you can

the 'correct' difficulty is one in which you're killing weak mobs in 2 or 3 clicks. if you do it in less, more difficulty. if more, bring it down

Yeah, it's easily D3's shittiest point. When I play PoE I really liked finding all the lore doodleydoos and thingamagics but D3's story is really bad. You do it once and then never again, or hell, just never do it at all.

Are there any viable ranged specs next season? I wanted to play wizard last season but oh hohoho, another fucking melee dominant build with that fucking tornado sword.

I'm gonna main DH this season probably, tired of ranged classes not being ranged.
>>
>>334453327
Condemn - Vacuum groups monsters. You can build sets that spam the skill non-stop.
>>
>>334453396
Wiz can play ranged just fine. UH and M6 are both good (UH is mostly for speedfarm, though). I think the melee set or a LoN built around the same shit is the 'high GR' set for DH this time around, though.
>>
Because I already finished it and don't see the point in continuing
>>
>>334453617
Wiz ranged specs were god awful, don't try to fool yourself. As long as Halo and APD exist, wizards will never not be a melee spec.

I rolled a DH in the middle of last season and enjoyed it way more. Only problem is they are locked into Dawn and the hat that gives Vengeance the damage reduction%

I hope Blizzard ends up removing CoE overall as well, fucking ring just leads to degenerate gameplay.

How do damage increase from item work?

Let's say I have bracer that increase X skill damage by Y%, and X skill itself does z% of Weapon damage.

Is that going to be additive of multiplicative?

The damage formula buckets so much shit. Most of the time it's additive and you just have to know the multiplicative exceptions.

Blizzard refuses to clearly and consistently word things on if they are multi or additive so you just have to learn what is multiplicative.

Diablo 1 has great atmosphere and a decent plot, not to retarded or comic booky, gameplay is pretty bad, game is overall pretty basic and lacking.

Diablo 2 has awful repetitive and boring gameplay, everything looks the same, the classes are all dull and boring itemization is garbage items are bland stat increases 9 times out of 10, classes are unbalanced and some builds are completly usless, the atmosphere from the first game is gone and the game looks and feels like a saturday morning cartoon, the plot is deviant art levels of awful and it rapes the lore hard and the game offer's absolutely no challenge

Diablo 3 (RoS) has great gameplay with plenty of replayability and loads of extra modes, plot and atmosphere is better than 2 but not as good as 1, music is amazing and fits really well, classes are very well done and play differently from each other, spells are all useful and satisfying, the game has great items with loads of depth and customization and no one build or class completely dominating.

The only people who think D2 is good are the casuals with nostalgia goggles on, D2 was casual garbage back in the day and it still is now.

Diablo 2 was more fun than scary but it truely expanded D1. Extremely fun.

Diablo 3 attempted to be profitable but failed at almost everything it tried until they had to basically ask the lead developer to step down.

Mostly the fact that you don't need to grind five thousand hours to get decent gear. But then you have adventure mode where you can go anywhere you want and do "Bounties" that give you loot rewards. There's also rifts that are basically randomized dungeons. That's about it. The story content is also pretty decent compared to the crap that vanilla had.
