I like how Tal Rasha portraits have the 7 sigils from Diablo II.
And, of course, we get THE red crowbar. I bet, it will have something like 10x damage versus scarabs and other bug enemies.

NHunter2335 posted a message on PTR Patch 2.1.2 dataminedI for one actually like the charge-based system for sentries. Though, I do hope that the new description of "Custom Engineering" has a mistake: you are supposed to have max of 2 charges stored as it is. It also seems that they are turning the M6 sentries into something that mimics your own attacks. That certainly will make playing the build more interesting (and challenging, as you now will need to properly manage your hatred) to play.Posted in: News
The great nerf of hydra, though, isn't really something I can understand. Especially for not-fire runes.
And the new legendary gems look interesting... At least on the paper. -

NHunter2335 posted a message on New PTR Patch - Class Changes, New Item Passives, and MoreArcane Torrent that buffs defense while channeling it? Give me one! - You can never have enough defense on Hardcore. Not to mention that that rune is a fire skill now, so, say hello to Cindercoat and 6pc Firebird set (the best combo here would be Cindercoat + Magefists + RoRG + 5pc of Firebird in its remaining slots), That ought to be quite a nice combination.Posted in: News
Witch Doctor got little changes. The update on locust rune is nice, or would be so if the damage was a bit higher. 75% in these days is a joke... Maybe something like "the first enemy to walk into remaining cloud of locust will pick it up onto itself"? That would be powerful.
Also, is it me, or there are 15 icons for legendary gems? I know only 13 gems... Did I miss something? -

NHunter2335 posted a message on 2.1 PTR Patch datamined - 2H Weapon Changes!I have a very strong suspicion that the two-handers will be buffed by those very 20% (to make them competitive with one-hander + offhand or 2x one-hander). Thus, the difference between the old Heavenly strength with old two-handers and new Heavenly strength with new two-handers will be negligible... ...Though, if that happens, getting something like a nicely-rolled FoTF will be such a pain...Posted in: News

Conduit pylon - that thing is what really got nerfed into uselessness. They need to buff its damage by 5x at least to make it worth something even on T6.

And while I'm not sure it will be included in this patch, raiment set get 2pc and 4pc bonuses changed to generator also generate dash charges and +5 dash charges respectively.

As an alternative, maybe Nat's crossbow + Nat's ring to get extra discipline (over 30 if have decent roll on xbow) and thus extra damage. Depending on how (Depth Diggers + Simplicity) and set damage buffs stack, those extra 30+ discipline might actually be preferable.

The companion - for 10 seconds damage burst (though as a hardcore player, I'd pick extra toughness from boar). And it can actually be discarded in favor of something else. Not sure what to stick in there, though... Some experimentations are needed, but the set isn't there for us to play with...

- Don't quote me on this, but as far as I know, those rockets are of the same element as the skill spawning them, unless it is stated otherwise (e.g. CA/Maelstrom is cold).
- 20% as sentry by itself does not affect the damage of your skills. Unless we're talking about skills fired by sentry with your gear having +%sentry on it or your jewelery having enforcer gem socketed.
- Same as above - sentry by itself doesn't affect the damage of your skills.
- Same as above.
- To the enemies within 'chilled' range.
- First shot's original explosion does not do any extra damage. Its rockets and the follow-up attacks will do more damage if the enemy is still chilled.
- Only for the enemies affected by chill/freeze.
- Same as above: the first shot's explosion doesn't do any extra damage (target is not chilled/frozen). After that, you get +20% damage as long as the enemy is still under the effects of chill/freeze.
- 15%. From any kind of a sentry.
- Same as above.
EDIT: This is true with live version of M6. The PTR version gives 100% damage per sentry to skills (some of them) you yourself fire. As in with 3 sentries your CA will do 2200% (550% x 4) damage, while CAs fired by sentries (when you yourself fire CA) with do only 550% each.0

Firebird builds themselves have a few variations. The high-grift Blizzard/Apocalypse version, the hardcore tank version that revolves around the Arcane Torrent with Flame Ward rune (requires Krelm's bracers to be truly effective) and a Disintegrate version. Pick the one you like the most.

Still, the graphics are awesome. That much is obvious.

That, and not getting any legs in 25 items when you can still gamble more than twice as much doesn't feel as bad as wasting half of your shards on just 10 for the same (lack of) result. Especially if RNG doesn't like you in general.

Anyway, you should decide, whether you play pet doctor or jade. As jade mostly benefits from +%cold damage. +%physical damage seems to be rather useless for this build. Also, since Jade is all about DoTs, attack speed only affects your cast animation. It doesn't affect actual damage output. Increased attack speed merely inflates sheet dps, so, for Jade build you should at very least consider a different belt. Hwoj Wrap might be a good choice since locust will slow down the enemies that survive the initial harvest to a crawl and you can recharge you skills much more peacefully as you will easily outrun everything that can't teleport.
As for legendary gems... Wreath of Lightning is a rather strange choice as you are either nuking everything around you for 100 or more times damage gem does or you've already killed everything on the screen and there is nothing for gem to attack, thus being reduced to utility of 3 seconds of increased movement speed...
I think that for Jade Bane of Powerful would be much better since it will essentially be permanent 20% increased damage. Godok of Swiftness might be good too as a way to reduce your cooldowns even more (and, thus, use Harvest more often).
