Quote from Bagstone jump

Basically, TL;DR: The absolutely ridiculous space limitations kill diversity because they *force* you into throwing away all non-cookie cutter gear and deincentivize any kind of theorycrafting, testing, experimenting. Blizzard's "Play your Way Thursday" would EXPLODE if they'd double the stash space.

So i actually could play all stuff i want.. but i have to realign my inventory stash all the time..
and thats exactly what is annoying the shit out of me..

so ... after i played wizard for about 1500 hours only, i decided to have a serious look at the other classes..

So now iam stuck with all the things i want and all the things i cannot get...

I want a Wizard, Monk,Barb,DH, WD and Templer for Solo Grifts.. 6 Char slots
I also want a ZDPS Doc, ZDPS templer and maybe ZDPS monk. 3 Char slots
.. then the GroupOptimized DH 1 char slot
and a T6 speed monk 1 char slot
+ a secondary character for experiments for all classes : 6 slots

thats 17 characters.. i only have 15 slots..
I cannot switch gear because i hate it. I really really hate it.. the whole purpose of this stuff is having the right character just a switch away...
I dont have enough space in stashes because blizzard thinks its enough..

As a comparison in diablo2 i had 2 main accounts and about 30 mule accounts with items sorted by type, rarity and quality.
So there was like a NormalSetMule1, a NormalUniqueMule1-5 etc etc etc etc
i just cant stand throwing away stuff..

I know there is no solution to the problem.. but hell i wanted to cry once for myself..
I never thought i'd ran into those problems while i was only playing my wizzard(s).. but now..
holy shit what should i do.

Dont tell me i need to focus more...
I would only focus if it would be required by my limited time.. but hell i was able to push my monk to grift 41 within 3 days .. not 3 days of playtime but 3 days.. maybe 12 hours playtime.... so why focus..

I so much would like to tackle the game from all perspectives.. but i cannot without annoying the shit out of me.

Any thoughts ?

read the setbonus... not the part with , when the 3000% damage are applied it will bleed to death.. but the part before...

The set bonus will repeat the fire damage dealt to the target in a 3 seconds frame. This effect Stacks...

Thats why the white mobs hp bar empties slowly in the beggining and every more quickly over time, just when casting one blizzard.
That is not the final 3000% dot, but the stacking firebird dot UNTIL 3000%.

if you would remove the 6piece bonus you will not have enough damage in your blizzard to kill the mob.

Though i was wondering : we're talking about T6 efficiency, so most mobs would die with a single Apocalypse. What's the point of the 6 pieces bonus set of the firebird ? You might trigger the DoT against elites, but wouldn't that be a waste if you could instead have 2 pure offense items ?

the set bonus stacks itself by applying fire damage.

so your blizzard does damage for a second. then firebird repeats the damage + blizzard tick and so on...

yeah orlash just gives me a beating. . i went with going to range and just use son wuku bonus damage to kill him, and when epiphany is up i charge hin, walk back, charge in walk back and so on...
really is gay

nah the pylons are fine. the duration is so short that you maybe get a quarter of the hp of the guardian for free...

In case they work correct...
but snapshotting ruins this ..

will you slap me jaetch if i report this bug to the forums with your video as an example?

wellcome to diablofans.com
It might be a good idea to post your gratefullness to the official forums (diablo3.com)
and not here on the world's best fansite for diablo.

that aside, wellcome to the club

yeah i find it really difficult to copy this snapshotting. but when i get it right, it guarantees a great rift time.



However, i find this mechanic very unappealing and its a major example for whats wrong with the firebird set..

I want to clear a grift with my own power not depend on some mechanic which is reliant on the environment..



i think it should be fixed - especially because it extends the duration of the pylon to the duration of the guardian. - which should not be allowed.

yeah REALLY WTF.....

how can you have 800 mil ticks on a rift guardian....

my gear is super duper and i barly get 250 mil with witching hour and trapped....

WHAT DA FUK?
(i also finished 44 in 12 min...) but What did i just see there?
Edit... should have watched more closely...
u snappshotted power pylon..

What is OSing?

iam a monk player for 2 days

yeah but actually, u dont need aughilds that hard when you are not facing the mobs in melee.

I got the exact same issue.

But i only started playing monk two days ago and iam on 38 now....

yeah i found an anchient furnace with dex.. so i had to try monk



.. anyway my biggest problem is also the survivability.

From watching the leaderboards the only difference i see is the helm which makes pillar of the anchients a ranged attack. thus monk is a ranged character with that helm.

Does this solve the toughness problem ? is there really no alternative to this helm? (and the build that goes with it)?



I like monk for being a melee class. That awesome fast gameplay wich you have with monk dashing from one group to another .. its totally awesome..

firebird is so boring compared to this..

Any thoughts?... is Furnace no longer any good unless its Ancient?





Yes

i think t6 is the perfect most effective way to farm legendaries at the moment while also having no need to perform any brain activity.



Perfect imoh.



I dunno what happened with 2.1.2 but t6 feels a lot different to 2.1.1. I get so much more loot.

Before the patch it was like 0-6 legendaries per rift.

now its like 0 - 20 ...

This is mostly due to the goblins currently being really generous. but even in rifts without any goblin spawn i had 10 legendaries once.



However the best thing was yesterday.

Single t6 rift: 9 legendaries from mobs, 2 Goblin Hoards with about 15 goblins each -> extra 8 legendaries

+ about 1000 veiled crystals, 300 gems, 400 arcane dust

+ 600 blood shards from a violet goblin pack.



Thats 17 legs, + 4 legs from bloodshards = 21 legs + tons of mats , in about 15 minutes ( took a while to pick up everything)

thats a legendary once in less then a minute.



I was like WTF is going on here.



really awesome.

However grifts dont feel as rewarding, and arent as rewarding because a guardian will never drop 21 legendaries
