    posted a message on What Bonus Act is active (PC) ?

    On a couple of Android D3 apps I have, there is a 'bonus act' gizmo. I finally learned that the Bonus Act rotation is not random, and actually runs on a schedule. So now I'm looking for a similar program for PC, as to be able to pop out of rifting when Act1 is the bonus (gotta get that ring).


    Recommendations?

    Quote from Cyberdoc»

    You may also notice i dwelled on the set dungeons. This is a thron in my side for the journey. They stand very much in the way of progress so they have their own place in where I choose the gifted sets.

    In S6 the gift set was WotW, I did the IK set dumgeon and ran a LeapQuake, so the gift should be thought of as 'farmer'. Just plan on doing the easy setD, collect stuff while working on the serious bits - there is no need to go chapter by chapter. Bagstones Difficulties shows that is is best to stay in rifts until T2, then come out and blitz the first 3 chapters and then the 4th. Go meta and collect augment gems....

    Bluddshed has a YouTube guide to the seasonal choices, it's recent so you can find it by checking his channel. The various questions above are answered, and he demos the mainly 'rares' builds he suggests to get the 3rd bag. The short answer is that there are no bad choices, and without any surprise, fastest is UE DH. Desolacer has a 1-70 leveling in 2 hours video, and he uses a HC WD as the demo....

    Barb, gifted the easy set dumgeon (as WD & DH are) which fits right into the zDPS build or top solo build, and my favorite farmer.


    D3 is a game with a destructable playfield, only the WoL monk smashes better than a LeapQuake.

    We will get to test your belief that the 20 minute boss run is 'not hard', as the choice of Conquests make that one of the two easy ones.


    It's not hard for those who've got 1) a solid understanding of their class and the skills/runes available, and 2) if you've been keeping the right gear as you go through the first 5 or 6 chapters of the SJ.
    Anyone who's doing the above and knows how to TP back to town to save the boss entrance location stands a good chance of doing this. I did it in a 4 man group in S6 with just the essential coordination and my own spec of Raekors with Boulder Toss.
    I would lean towards a) good comms and B) capable teammates. If you can solo a boss in TX while in a 4man game, then the power is there.

    I suspect the second gift bag for Barb/DH will contain boots, of course neither have shoulders. So the other bag set item must be one of the two different slot legs. I doubt that we would get the weapon, so the Barb will get the IK belt and the DH will get a Nats ring. Weapons will arrive in bag 3 with the chest and pants.

    Quote from Bagstone»

    Not sure about wiz, barb, monk; probably doable but require a decent gear power level.

    Easy with WoL monk, did it first attempt in the first season I played D3. Took a DH clanmate thru it later, without much higher kills - yah, I carried him! I've been thinking that LQ barb should also make it, once you take the better choices.... There was another bounty I came across during Avarice that seemed to spawn enough mobs, maybe something rare in A1 :?:

    posted a message on no set Conquest = GR45, rare 'Conquest' = ??

    Hmm, yup you are obviously going to have lgems, and that helps a lot. So the time to stop rifting is when you get stopped/slowed out, and THEN finish the early chapters....not the sequential way I've been doing it. I really appreciated your Tracker even more when I recently reset it, in order to track a completely fresh test start on EU (which now will include early grifts for lgems). The number of non-tiered tasks was larger that I had noticed in previous seasons. I had that Tracker open every playing session to plan how I was going to get done, far better than in previous times when the requirements were shuttered.


    -------

    Wudijo had legs in the cube...but that can be the best place for low levels...still you get max bonus.

    posted a message on no set Conquest = GR45, rare 'Conquest' = ??

    I enjoyed the 'The Thrill' Conquest in S7, it turned out easier than expected at the start of my effort. But that was solved via legs, and skills tuned to the bonuses on those selected legendaries. GR45 was not the limit, a refined build could have gone higher (in the classes I've checked, there are LoN builds near the leaderboard top).


    But what about a rare-only build? How high can it go, as there are no bonuses to empower your skills.


    Looking at http://d3resource.com/journey/

    Can a rare-only build complete Slayer? Or is it stopped at 3rd gift bag? Or even eariler/later?
