The char names cracked me up.
You're a little light on D, unless that's Jordie and not Jamie...
Anyway have you tried Piranhas yet? I just hit 61 last night before going to bed and I literally couldn't tell if it was doing a damn thing. They should call it coy pond because mobs were just splashing around and having fun in that worthless pool. Does it ever get any better?
DPS upgrades weren't enough for Uzrael at T1 on my monk. Had to drop back down to my sledge fist to stun him to death.
Haven't really found many upgrades yet, enchanting my level 60 items has been where most of my improvement has come from.
Supposedly the over abundance of level 61 items has been that way since the beta and nothing has changed since then.

The biggest advantage seems to be that enemies hit by it take 15% more damage. Basically it's a debuff with some DOT.

Waiting till 70 to kill
on master difficulty? Good idea! It also dropped a legendary bracers pattern for me too. Not too shabby. Though that gem is gonna have to go for something better soon.

Overall my character needs a lot of work still. Only 413k buffed damage and around 3.5 million toughness buffed. Getting through on torment difficulty and finishing off the last third of it on master was rough to say the least. I need to make her more beefy!

Really puts thing into perspective lol. I remember my first trip into inferno I needed 12 k damage to kill the Butcher lol.

23 Legends in 9 hours of play. Opened 9 Horadric caches and got 5 legs.
I did like 8 rifts though... and didn't ever get a greater cache? Anyone know if they are still in the game?
My DH is already insanely geared.
Rifts are so amazingly fun, as are bounties. I just almost feel like we went from one end of the spectrum to the other...

Man. If Torment 1 is this hard....
I have completed my first night of the expansion. I cleared act 5 on torment 2 later downgraded to 1 with a friend DH and WD
and unlocked adventure mode, completing all 25 bounties. I got some good rares and these beauties:
I actually got two of the staves. First had 2400 DPS and 10k life after kill and was replaced by the second. First is now sitting on my enchantress and the double fears are actually pretty useful.
Malthael was a pain in the balls

yeah and like 17k for belial or you would hit the rage timer.
6 hours in so far and I'm at level 68.
Finished Act V at level 67.
I didn't have the best gear, though - had about 90,000 DPS at level 60.
Got up to
last night, but couldn't take him down.
Got lots of new gear on my DH and leveled to 64 to get there, but my buffed 300k dps and 1m toughness doesn't seem like enough to burn him down before he takes me out on T1. Gonna keep trying though.
Also, if you 'Reset Quests', does it lock adventure mode again or is it unlocked forever once you beat AV?

Unlocked forever.
Apparently there's a unique enemy giant rat named Sprynter, enemy of the Foote clan.

whooooooooooa the difficulty drop from torment 1 to master is silly, bit unbalanced maybe? boss / zone spoilers
now I dont know what to do.
the briarthorn cemetary boss, which is basically the same as the last one in westmarch commons (thats lazy as shit blizz come on) was SO much easier, in fact the whole zone was, although the graveyard is much smaller, but the couple of yellows I found were so much easier compared to torment 1, like I said, bit silly.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
Not particularly, no.

Looks like I need to reroll my string of ears LOH too.
Dont you get blood shards for bounties? Then you can trade in those shards for loot runs and greater caches or something
I just remember reading this stuff but havent played with any of it yet
Dialogue and such I suppose. Inevitably you'd need to get it done to play any future expansion acts as well.
Flawless victory.
Thanks, glad to hear that.
If Act 5 is as good as people are saying it is I'd play through just to do Act 5 on all the classes.

Well, unless you're going for the extra quest XP bonuses, or the legendary drop from Mathael.
You do get shards but from what I have just read it seems they removed the greater caches.. and quite possibly the bonus for completing all 25. The kind of loot that was on a greater cache now drops from the end boss of rifts.

Here is my plan, please tell me if it will not work. I'm going to:
Should work, yes?
I don't have the gear for T1 Act 5 yet but, don't want to miss out on the T1 only drops.
- Beat Act 5 (probably in expert) to unlock adventure mode
- Reset quests
- Do a quick rush through story on normal
- Restart act 5 on t1
- Use adventure mode to get myself geared up enough to eventually beat it.

As soon as I saw the giant rat callers, I KNEW this was in, haha.
Had to quit last night after first boss fight. That fight made me drop from T1 to Master. Prior to the fight, had this drop in the rat sewers beneath Westmarch:
For my 150K unbuffed monk, this was a huge upgrade. Now sitting at just over 200K unbuffed and 1.3 million toughness. Don't think T1 is going to be possible from here on out until I find better gear.

Around 3h30m on Torment 1, reached 70 before Malthael. Also, dodge gets nerfed to hell (I'm a monk) while you level, I went from 50-55ish to sub 40 before I hit 70 and could put in another passive to boost it a bit again.
(Ruby socket in helm)
I'm at 67.5 and that took about 2 hours, T1 running with a Hellfire and a 33% gem in my helm, going solo. There is no doubt I will be 70 before the end.
Yep yep I remember that haha. Expansion tailor made for Raticus!

Can't deal with T1 in Act V anymore. I had to drop to Master. I must have died at least 15 times in that bone cave thing. There were elite packs in every corner. My DH setup is becoming very defensive right now.
DPS: 112k (unbuffed) 257k (buffed)
Toughness: 1.8m
DPS: 112k (unbuffed) 257k (buffed)
Toughness: 1.8m
Yeah, Toughness seem to be WAY more important at lv 70 than it ever was on lv 60. I'm up from 800k toughness to 6 mil just to survive on T1.

I know a week out I'll see less and less of these type of comments but it's lovely reading them now. I like that people are getting "knocked down" a bit. Feels like a proper challenge for people who were blowing through Torment before.
I know I've had to turn it down. Don't mind. I'll work my way back up gear wise eventually. First order is to ding 70.
US or EU or both?
