Diablo III: Reaper of Souls |OT| Once again! The Sound of HAMMERS is GLORIOUS!

It would not be a 3 stat item it would be a 4 stat DPS item. Unless you are one of those asshats who puts so much weight on sheet DPS.

Any Rare would not be better. For one Rare Gloves don't roll that high main stat. Secondly Rares don't get those set bonuses. This is a much more valuable piece than even a trifecta glove because of those bonuses.

And no one gets Gloves for survivability so I don't understand that comment about it not having survivability. You pretty much always want all DPS stats on Gloves and your glove has potentially 4 of them. If you think these Gloves are bad then you should Salvage them immediately because you don't see their worth.

Could you clarify? I mean I'm not caught up on theorycraft but is it like you shouldn't put your primary stat on each piece of gear you get?

Doing rifts at T3 and doing bounties at T3 are a completely different experience for me. I have no problem with the rifts but it can be quite challenging to stay alive during bounty runs. Some attacks, like the act 1 keywarden's fireball attack are incredibly powerful.

T2 bounties are still the sweet spot for me with my gear I guess :(.
 
Did split farming today for keys. I have all these useless caches lying around.

I'll get fuck all from them but yeah. I wonder if I should stockpile a few more...

Don't. I stockpiled almost 70 just from playing yesterday and all the shiny shit on the ground drove me mad after awhile. All that yellow loot and barely any legendaries from the bunch. It's best to just pop what you got and hope for the best.

Plus all that clicking picking up loot causes finger cramping.

So I had a pretty damn good day after going dry for a week or so. Got my thunderfury for my monk and this bad boy tonight:

Where should I use it? I already rolled the life on hit for a socket. Do barbs have any strong 2h builds or better on a crusader?

1 legendary :p More than what I expected. Insatiable belt. Eh.

Does it make any difference if I farm caches on Normal then open them in T6? What about blood shards?

Kadala should have the same rates across difficulties
I think there was a blue post saying that opening a cache's drops wouldn't upgrade if you opened them on a higher difficulty. I don't think cache rewards even differ based on difficulty but i might be wrong

When will I start seeing death's breath drop (I'm lvl 56 grinding in Corvus to get better gear before facing Adria - do I need to be 'at end game' before I can level up my blacksmith further)?

Killed him once in story T1 and once in adventure T1, dropped it both times. I'm really, really lucky.

For Death's Breath, I finished upgrading my crafters once I hit adventure mode, since most rift elite packs will drop one.

Hey all sorry if this was raised before. Is there upgrade codes from ps3 to ps4 versions of this game? My friend got it for ps3 but I really only want ps4 ver
 
Killed him once on Master in Adventure Mode, and it drops. Figures.

And then I craft this pile of crap with it. >..>

And you can't transmog it, so that useless +cold damage is just sitting there, being lame.

Think it might be time to switch to T2. I'm melting almost everything I fight, and 95% of elites/champions/bosses go down easily if I pop Epiphany.
 
Received and opened my first ever cache tonight from a level 70 Expert run, had Ring of Royal Grandeur.

Reading the thread I think I'll quit for a week now. This seems like when a casino lets you win on the first pull as they try to suck you in.

Run. Run before the others read this. RUN!
 
Re: Reaper's Wraps. Where the heck do I get the plan? I have three of the freaking mats, the white bracers, etc...I can't find the dang recipe.

Please don't tell me Malth drops it since I've farmed him three dozen times on T1. Is this something that only drops during the main quest line and not adventure mode?

It's supposed to be a guaranteed drop the first time you kill him in story mode.

Erm, you can Enchant them. Of course, you can't get rid of two stats here but still.

It's hard to just find a single piece of a set. I've played this game so much since RoS released. And I've only found 1 firebird and vyr set piece. Both of which are average set pieces that pretty much suck compared to the items I'm already using in those slots.

150 hours deep and I've only found one unusable class set piece. My friend who only plays when I do has nearly completed both his class sets.

Can anyone tell me if there is a single good two handed weapon for barbarians? It seems like they should just make 2 handed sword drops for crusader only. Once they added the ability for crusaders to equip a two handed weapon in one hand, that ended any chance of them giving 2 handed weapons a proper boost. I just hate having a third of my leg drops be two handed weapons that I know I will never use, am I wrong here?

974 life per second on an item that causes you to no longer regenerate life. And you're wondering what to reroll?

It's equally as useless as the Way of the Hundred Fists bonus.

Edit: Oh, I just saw it's Life per Second and not Life.

Would definitely be rerolling the Thousand Fists bonus, then.

I assume that means I would only be healing through Life on Hit and Potions/skills, basically?

Kinda sucks - i haven't seen one set item since playing. Set items and runewords were my favourite part of D2 itemization.

I do miss some of the more ecclectic sets from D2, they've all been moved over to crafting. I'd like more of those sets to have been lower level accessible sets and less crafted shit. I think the crafting is one of the big failures of the xpac thusfar, still playing ti like 5 hours a day though so w/e

I heard Tyrial and Lothran mention the Skovos Isles during an in game discussion. I suppose this is a hint at where the next expansion is going to be set?

This post makes me ... Something other than happy

He should be stacking LPS. Like the exact the exact opposite of what you said.

I feed that bitch Blood Shards all night long and get no legendary bracers at all. Hubby gets 5 different Magefists including one with an astounding trifecta + fire damage roll.
 
Just got RoS a few days, and I'm sitting at around 400k Sheet DPS on my Crusader. For gearing up fast, is it worth doing bounties in Torment 2...not for the caches, but for the mobs along the way etc?

Or are rifts the only / best way of gearing up?

You don't use a Cold Wizard? You can just roll the Armor into Crit chance and this becomes a very good Bracer.


50 veiled crystals to reroll set chest.

Mystic please.
The Mystic is the biggest hustler I have ever seen.

Not sure what the question is.

Main stat does not equal primary stat by the way. Main stat = Dexterity, Strength, Intelligence. Primary stats are 4 stats that can roll on a piece of gear (Main stat, Vitality, Crit, IAS, sockets etc).

You should have main stat on all your gear ideally, yes. I didn't say anything against that.
 
that feeling when you get a legendary, and it's so trash that you accidentally sell it instead of salvaging because you forgot it even dropped
