FoH is nearly back to where it was.
Also, am I crazy or are hammers back to pimp status? I've been going through builds for a while and just decided to try it and man, they're hitting hard. I don't even have any real % gear either.

my question is, before or after it drops? if an item is already on the ground and you equip it, will he pick it up? do you have to equip it first then open an armor rack or whatever? can you horde all whites til the end and let him pick them up?

The mystic reroll bug is apparently limited to crafted set items. So it's not SO terrible. They're looking into fixing it.

I expect it will pick up items on the ground that haven't been touched yet even if the goblin is summoned after they drop, but can't say for sure until I can try it out.
I would think Blizzard has testers running scripts in a UAT environment where the patch is deployed to them before us?
NFC if its true just how it works with another company
Yes, that's how it works. The goblin picks up any white items on the ground, regardless of when they dropped. I've thrown junk on the ground for it from my inventory before and it snatches them up.
I just did a real world test to confirm and it is so. Took ring off. Spawned an item in Battlefields. Put ring on. Goblin picked up item.
EDIT: Spoke too soon. I took the ring off and spawned a white item from Battlefields. Put it in my inventory. Went back to town. Summoned goblin. Threw item on ground. It wouldn't pick it up.
So there are some limitations. Not sure exactly what the step that breaks it is, though. Would need to test a little more.
EDIT 2: Did a little more testing. It's picking up the item that breaks it. So as long as you don't pickup the white item, it doesn't matter if the goblin is up when the item drops or not. You can go through and clear out an area, then put the ring on, but you can't pickup all the white items as you go, then dump them for the gob to pickup.

Why would I play as anything other than a Crusader now?
I was really hoping for some monk fixes. Seeing how massively they changed Crusaders, while just changing a few elements for monks, makes me really dispirited.

Just tested it now and on the additional bounces I have seen the "combust" proc, so yes if that is what you mean.

Ohh for god sake, i just got my Gesture of Orpheus with a 65% cooldown reduction yesterday (i was so happy).
Either a bug or stealth nerf, but it seems you can only have 1 slow time bubble up at a time (from your own casting) making the weapon bonus rather pointless - if this is intentional its just stupid.

Does the goblin pick up whites that you dropped? Like pick up all the whites during a run, then drop them on the ground and put the ring on? I'll have to try that later.
Edit: Didn't figure it would. Still though, I have a couple decent puzzle rings I'll throw on to try. Maybe stick one on a follower?
so if i equip my ring and drop my 2 stashes full of whites he will pick them all up?
edit: nvm saw your edit.

nop only whites you havent pick up yet..
Yea. I had heard that it was previously broken. Never tried it myself. Curious to try a fire blessed shield build tonight.

The item can't come from your inventory or anyone else's.
If you've got crazy high damage I'm sure it is. I can clear T1 basically as fast as normal, so I've generally stuck with that in the offchance of getting something good. Now there's even more of a reason.

I figured the bounty change wouldn't have much of an impact. Someone WILL collect 50 normal caches and 50 T3 caches and do a comparison though. I'm interested in seeing some data on that.
I only do bounties now for the rift frags. Normal is still best for that so I'll probably stick to it (unless they increased the frags from caches, and I don't recall seeing that in the patch notes).
Also, I have a puzzle ring. I may consider keeping that in my inventory. It's not like I need to salvage white items yet. I'm sitting on 5000+ reusable parts.

Oh my god the fixed crusader passives look like so much fun to mess with.
I love that their is a legit 1 handed weapon passive now, that's really cool. I wish that they had done a bit more to Falling Sword instead of just ramp up the damage insanely but I'll take whatever I can get

t1 sure, but that won't get you the other legs. t2 isnt much slower, but i have to take more defensive skills that slow me down a bit.

Um, yeah, not really sure if I'm feeling plague of toads. I feel like it does a lot less damage than when I was using firebats. Plague of toads spawns a SHIT load of fetishes though.
Do you have the flayer? I wouldn't use the non-Rain/Giant Toad versions without it.

I actually have no idea what you are speaking of :/
Is that the "frogs explode twice" knife?
Yup
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/item/rhenho-flayer
Explode twice guaranteed, also a chance to seek enemies. (100% seek was OP)

It's been mentioned a ton of times, yeah. It's a glitch that applies only to crafted set items.

Well doesn't that just fucking suck. No chance of me getting my money and souls back too from blizzard.

After some quick testing, I think I'll stick with firebats. Damage is too good. Takes longer to spawn fetishes, though, but not by a vast margin. The more enemies you hit, the better.
Holy crusader all the way.
Rift density feel higher to anyone else?
I only did five or six rifts this morning, so not a big sample size, but the Ruins to Corvus map was crammed to the gills every time it came up, to the point where we had a quadruple elite pack stair trap in one of our runs (three yellow elites and one blue pack). This map used to be nearly as empty as Pandemonium Fortress.

Mine really isn't that good, not terribly sure why I kept it in the first place. Rerolled it once and got a decent damage roll, but dog modifier wasn't good enough at the time to warrant further flawless imperials.
I had originally rerolled the LoH on it, not sure if rerolling the primary stats would yield different results, looks like a no right now tho.
Stealth monk nerf since they're the only ones that really need crafted set items. RIP monks.
WTF is this bullshit. I hope this is a glich because I keep getting other character rerolls on my items for mystics...
That's tight. Crusader has more skills now !!!
Blizzard FTL.

What? Just about every Wizard uses Aug... oh wait. Eek. Carry on =P
Anyways, it's a bug. They'll fix it.
This has me worried more than anything else.
Humorously, I feel like my damage went up in general and it takes basically no time at all to hit 15+ Fetishes. Firebats do nothing compared to that and aren't nearly as mobile.

If I can use another character to get 15% LTK on my shoulders that would be amazing.
Ok, so crashes have been happening for people after 2.0.5. But apparently massive FPS drops have been plaguing people as well.
My group was going through a rift and every champ/elite pack would cause FPS drops. If they had ground effects it would drop into the 5-20 fps range.
This is happening over multiple configurations as well:
Hopefully this will be hotfixed, but report here if you're having FPS issues as well.
So far it's:
