Re-customizable builds are awesome, I don't know what some of you are talking about.

Diablo 3 is just more enjoyable to me in short bursts, especially when there's new content. I got burnt out while playing with the clan. I had a great time though, the shenanigans with Yoshichan and the others on Mumble were great, I hope we can do that again some time.

I'm slowly getting back into the game.

 

[Ayumi]

As of this morning, it was 147/150

Ah, looks like I might be too late.

 

[Fularu]

Ah, looks like I might be too late.

With 3 open spots that's doubtfull

So I just got a Stone of Jordan. What makes this one of the best rings in the game?

 

[garath]

So I just got a Stone of Jordan. What makes this one of the best rings in the game?

The elite damage and elemental damage. It's one of the highest (the highest?) sources of raw elite damage up to 30% and has up to 20% elemental. Both best in slot values.

 

[Fularu]

So I just got a Stone of Jordan. What makes this one of the best rings in the game?

The combination of +25-30 elite damage and +15-20 elemental damage

Join the GAF public community and the officers in the clan are all also officers in the community roster. Just bug whoever's online. Hopefully there are still a few spots open

I feel like now is as good as time as any to mention that like half of the current officers haven't been active since the first week or two we reformed the clan and the other half are taking a break or only log on every once in a while. In general there is really only a handful of people still playing regularly right now and none of them are officers. I don't think it's really been an issue since there also hasn't really been many people seeking to get into the clan, but, I figured at some point people would ask again and it would probably be hard for them to just log on and get an invite.

 

[Celegus]

Is there a limit to the number of officers in a clan? I was kind of surprised someone like Zenax wasn't one already, or some of the other regulars.

The limit's 25 for communities. I imagine it's the same for clans. I'm fine with promoting more people. Officers actually have the permission to promote other officers right now.

If anyone's interested in more actively managing things, I can hand over the reins. I have a lot of other competing stuff on the go.

The reason I ask people to contact us via the community roster is the clan invite commands don't work. Maybe they will in 2.1, but for now if I try to /claninvite gaffer#0001 (or cinvite) it says it's an invalid command.

By the way, people are saying the 2.1 PTR is starting to download in the launcher now.

 

[Fenderputty]

I've been less regular. I'm on late at night west coast right now. If somone wants my officer spot because they still at a lot, they're welcome to it.


Edit: ooh PTR coming ... It's happening.gif

 

[RukusProvider]

Patch notes boys! 2.1

get your exploits in early!

Wonder how that firebirds 6 set bonus will work with my Wand of WoH wizard build?

 

[Ricerocket]

Downloading now. 11GB.

HYPED!

 

[th3dude]

Nice, PTR time. Hopefully this ends up being a quick test, I need 2.1!

An additional Stash Tab is now available for all players with Reaper of Souls

Woo!

A new Legendary consumable has been added
Ramalandi's Gift
Use on an unsocketed item to add the maximum number of sockets that item type allows

That's a nice change.

 

[Radec]

Diablo III: Reaper of Souls |OT2| Look! Game is interesting again!

 

[ZenaxPure]

If anyone's interested in more actively managing things, I can hand over the reins. I have a lot of other competing stuff on the go.

I mean really there isn't much point in changing any of that since it's not like there are a bunch of responsibilities associated with the clan anyway (since clans are very limited in what they can do and are basically glorified chat rooms) but we could certainly use some more officers of the people still playing just for the sake of inviting anyone who still wants in.

 

[Fenderputty]

Can somone post notes?

 

[Dahbomb]

Oh shit PATCH NOTES!!!!!

 

[bcl0328]

Can somone post notes?

way too big to copy and paste.

Wow at some of those legendaries. Rend twice!? holyfuk

Nothing for Witch Doctors. Boo.

That's perfect ... Thanks


Hmm. LOH changes retroactive.

 

[Dahbomb]

Oh wow @ the DH set buff:

Now causes Shadow Power to last forever

 

[Ricerocket]

Hmmm

(6) Set Bonus

Fixed an issue that caused Hatred spenders cast by the Sentries to have a slower attack speed than intended\

I just recently got 6/6 Marauder and was told atk spd didn't affect it. Now it will as a buff!? Sweet

 

[Rokam]

That Crusader season shield makes me all kinds of happy. I love condemn!

 

[Dahbomb]

P1_CruShield_norm_unique_01 (Name still TBD)

New Legendary Crusader Shield
Removes the cooldown of Condemn
Condemn now costs 40 Wrath

So Blade of Prophecy plus this new shield = New shotgun build?


Also no new good Monk bonuses or buffs to previous Legendaries... forever sad.

 

[TheSadRanger]

Most important change is new stash tabs for everyone!!!!!

You get a stash tab!! You get stash.........!!

edit: Also how the hell does the new firebird bonus work? Is it a proc on hit?

Wizard

Firebird's Finery
(6) Set Bonus
Weapon damage increased from 300% to 2000% over 5 seconds

 

[Raticus79]

Really curious about the details on that new socket-creating legendary.

Does it just add sockets or does it have to replace a primary affix?

Can it be done on an item that's previously enchanted?

 

[Spacecowboy77]

"A new reward has been added: The Hellfire Amulet

Requires the same materials to craft as the Hellfire Ring plus 10 additional Forgotten Souls"


Sooo... better starting farming Hellfire Ring parts?

 

[Ricerocket]

Im in.

 

[Ashodin]

It itself is a legendary, so will be rare to find, so I'm assuming it's adding sockets where there was none previously (adding an affix) or enhancing current affix. Which means you should reroll then add this, then add another or so later.

 

[Sarcasm]

Have no way of getting more money to purchase RoS so I am stuck watching streams lol

 

[Fenderputty]

The new monk passives are interesting and it seems like they're trying to make a cold monk viable.

 

[Dahbomb]

I just looked at some of those Monk changes and I thought "well I guess you don't really a Frost Gauntlet anymore".

The combination of the new Cold Cyclone Strike and new Sweeping Wind basically freeze enemies for you.

 

[Ricerocket]

Fucking christ, when you log in first time, prepare for achievement spam.

Anyways, time to test pet AI. I just tried M6 DH and turrets still feel the same as it did on live.

Also guys, try joining GAF community so maybe we can give greater rift a try together.

That was actually my exact thought.

 

[Sigmaah]

Earthquake buffs let's go!!!

Now I can run cold and do damage! But nah molten fury too strong.

Got my bro downloading this for me now, will be home in like 2 hours to play this shit!

 

[ZenaxPure]

Finally finished the rift I was in and am reading the notes fully now. Lol at the sacrifice change for WD. Only consumes one dog per cast, casts at your mouse cursor location, and TMF effects it so it does 3k weapon damage. Sounds amazing and hilarious.

 

[Dahbomb]

I am a bit disappointed in the amount of new Legendaries in the Ladder.

I hope they add more within this PTR and when the actual patch is released. Only 10 Legendaries aren't enough to hop on the Ladder bandwagon.


Also Seasons aren't even implemented in this PTR yet so people are just going to be trying out Greater Rifts really and the new class changes.

 

[Fularu]

Downloading the patch

I thought Seasons wouldn't be active on the first push?

They aren't.

 

[Ricerocket]

New icon I noticed for caches.

Opening rifts - now you gotta carry rift fragments in your inventory and click it over to the rift stone now...

My DH didn't fall over dead at being touched or jailed in T6. Pretty tanky with 20k armor and 1k all res lol.

 

[Fenderputty]

Lol
... Even crippling wave freezes people now. Time for that cold monk build.

 

[ZenaxPure]

Also fuck I just realized the new depth diggers are going to be so OP for MM wizards. Double damage on 3x missile shots... Assuming it effects them, but idk if they count as generators

 

[cdyhybrid]

Wizard-Age, tell me if I'm going to regret rolling a Wizard as my season character!

SO WE TRIPLED IT!!!!!!


Also new Legendaries have been leaked/datamine... FINALLY I can give up my Exploding Palm skill on the tab and use SSS:

p1_ItemPassive_Unique_Ring_941 - Your Seven-Sided Strike applies Exploding Palm.

Please don't be a Daibo...



Blizzard really treats Monks like a red headed step child. The class with the least new Legendaries in Seasons and one of them is garbage (SW for 1 minute).

 

[Maledict]

AS others have said, I hope they plan on adding more season legendaries, and also upgrading more of the existing pointless legendaries that currently drop. Right now there's nothing in the seasons list which would make me roll something new. I was sort of hoping they would be a bit bolder and steal more from Path of Exile with seasons, and actually add something into the game when playing them.

Also, is it me or are the majority of wizard changes in some form a nerf, with all of the popular current resource spenders apart from explosive blast now having a steep up front arcane power cost? With the boost to MM and the nerf to normal consumers, it does sort of feel like wizards may end up being pushed more and more to those two builds now. Bit odd considering I think general consensus was that wizards had issues at T5 & T6.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

Holy shit, some of these dataminded things....

Finally! Been waiting for a content patch since what feels like goddamn forever.
