    posted a message on HOTS event with D3 reward

    All of the D3 characters exist in HOTS so pick one you like. Create AI game with a friend vs easiest AI, ping each AI ally to get them to follow you (alt click on them), and just plow through the enemy. Shouldn't take longer than 5 minutes per game. Pinging your AI allies to follow you is essential.

    posted a message on LoN Primal Buff

    Primals are are huge disappointment, the whole allure and justification for the rareness is supposed to be that the item is perfect, but they can roll with crap affixes so that isn't even remotely the case. Blizz should let us reroll as many affixes as needed on primals.

    posted a message on Monks & Barbs - Season 10.

    That is a horrible analogy, cars models cost different prices and are built for different things. A better car analogy would be if we both bought Z4s and yours randomly came with civic engine despite costing the same price.

    Well biggest issue for me is paragon system.


    This is the biggest bullcrap.
    Diablo 3 is paragon.
    Play Mario Bros u will enjoy it more.
    "Diablo 3 is paragon" is exactly the problem with the paragon system, it is so overtuned that it moots every other aspect of the game. Turns the game into a race to see who can waste the most time farming paragon every 3 months.

    posted a message on New ladder season to play or not to play
    Any guild that needs drops to progress isn't a top guild. Any guild that can't clear the content because they don't play enough isn't a top guild. All of your points about gradations of skill and RNG are correct for mid-range guilds, but they simply don't apply to top guilds. The bar in wow is set too low for RNG to matter to top guilds. Top guilds clear the new content within 2-4 weeks using 90% gear from the previous tier. Then they raid once a week for 3 months waiting for the next path. Rinse and repeat for a couple years at most, get bored, quit.

    posted a message on Is a 2 handed build viable with barbs now ?
    I'm running MOTE and IK sets with the IK boulder breaker. I find that it is competitive with my sunkeeper/sankis and in certain situations actually feels better. And my sunkeeper/sankis are rolled very well. Its a very niche case and for me it comes down to my hexing pants. If I drop the boulder breaker for dw I also have to drop hexing pants to keep my set bonuses. My experience is that the 25% damage from hexing pants and the higher damage of the two hander cancels out the loss of the second weapon socket and other offhand stats. From my calculations my build, 2his slightly bettervs normalmobs but slightly worse vs elites. You can certainly argue that elite damage is more important and I would agree, but I like the feel of a 2h enough to overlook theslightly lowerdamage vselites.

    I agree that 2h's need a lot of love. Ideally a build like leap-quake it should be a no brainer to use a 2h sense attack speed it moot. In reality this is not the case as dw offhand stats are overwhelmingly strong. 2H stats need to be more distinguishing compared to 2h to make them viable in non niche cases.

    Just wanted to post my experience because 2h aren't completely useless for barbs and there is definitely room to work them into certain builds without taking a massive efficiency loss even at high torments.You just need to have the right gear/build and have an open mind. With 2h leap-quake your sheet dps be definitely be lower compared to dw but that doesn't necessarily mean that youeffective dps is. FYI I can easily farm t5 at speed andcan do t6 but not fast enough to be efficient. This is true in my dw set and my 2h set..
