Might be the sunwoku 6 set

Happened to a few friends of mine. Only thing they could do was restarting the game

GGo Ancient Partan bracer replace Strongarm

So how does Ancient Parthan Defenders work on a barb, since they need to be Stunned and Furious Charge will Freeze them?

It works as stun and freeze give the same result. Freeze is considered a stun in the game

Heya.

In the first ptr datamining they found files from the Cursed realms. Nothing about it on the ptr atm nor in the patch notes.

In RoS we got adventure mode and rifts as a new feature, im starting to think that Cursed realms might be something for the new expansion

And now you are asking why was it on the ptr server ?

Well. If you remember back before RoS came out. We had beta. Then we got pre patch ptr. That was both on the same servers. You could play with people in the beta with a ptr account. you just couldnt play the new RoS stuff without a beta account.

So basicly. That could mean the cursed realm stuff now found on the ptr server. Might actualy just be some of the verry first files for the next expansions beta

What do you guys think ?

Does cursed realm look like a patch feature or expansion feature ?

For the first point about the rift guardian. This has been fixed in patch 2.2. Rift guardian will now always show on the map

thanks for the info, even though I play everyday, I must admit I didn't try the latest PTR, having to wait 1h00 to create a game kind of put me off

Yeah. its stupid. It wasnt that bad yesterday night and it might be better now aswell. I got in on t6 instantly last night on ptr

its not advised to gamble on weapons as far as i know and read around.

Well. It kinda depends tho.

1: The only thing you need to get a build going like Dagger of darts or something like that. When you have all the other pieces.

2: When you cant get much more out of gambling. Which is never really gonna happen for 90%+ of the players.

Then you gamble for weapons. If not. Not worth it.

On a side note. I was farming bloodshards for my barb on my monk. I got a blood thief before the RG so i had to spend some shards before the rift guardian to get them all with me.

I went out. Gambled for 2 weapons. One legendary axe. One ancient Furnace with rather decent roll. 4.6k top dmg. 4200 ish dps. I have no more luck top spend in this game. So i should really just quit

For the first point about the rift guardian. This has been fixed in patch 2.2. Rift guardian will now always show on the map

And seeing how ptr havent even been out a week. Non of this hits live and even thinking a ring that will give you close to perma 100% crit aint gonna go through nerfs, is kinda weird coming from quin

wish they removed the 2000% buff so the ptr could actualy be played. Now we have a shittonne of players only online because of the buff

so spend a lot of resources on new gem effects only a tiny part of the playerbase get to use ? Less than 10 % if not even 5.

Maybe lvl 50 if they added another way of leveling so more people could get it. As it is now. Most people get stuck at around 35. Some people can do 40-45 and a verry few can do 45 +

And why do you need the gear when the way u play doesn't require that gear ?

"Doing the crap t1 in sucky gear" is actually the way how it should be. You gather small pieces to be able to progress further.

I'm not saying this is bad addition, but i'd rather see some more events that are based on both skill and gear than just pure skill (we don't even know if it will be the case).

I never said they should take out the other gearing methods. But adding another sort of gearing which is more skill based than gear based wont hurt the game

Quote from Green»

Sounds like not in the place for now.

This game is about getting gear and building a skill set around it. This event basically removes that. I understand that it might be some nice small addition, but i would rather see some more "normal" events that "fun" events at this stage of the game.

And what if the Vials you pick up is a currency to buy gear ?

It would beat the crap out of doing t1 in sucky gear alone after just dinging 70.

Having something that is skill based and not just gear based

Those sets havent been confirmed anywhere and i can almost guarantee that they are changed

Microtransactions should be purely cosmetic. Something you buy if you want. Not something you need. Nothing else. Not boosts and not storage spaces and crap like that.

However the slow content releases we have now could be better. I would honestly preffer a monthly fee on diablo. To get more stuff faster and more frequent

monthly sub with full access > microtransactions

Any day of the week

Only reason to do full clears was back in the day when a rift cost 5 shards to open.

Now its rather stupid. You get overall less crap because you get less bloodshards.

You get the same kills per hour and more bloodshards per hour. Meaning. More loot than full clears

Drops are determined on the kill, not when the mob spawns. So its not like you leave a mob with a legendary in the rift

The blood thief or goblin pack you might find after the rift guardian. Well. You are just as likely to find that before the next guardian.

So there is no reason what so ever to do a full clear.

However. That doesnt mean you shouldnt finish the level you are on if there is a shit tonne of elites up in your face
