Getting loot is addictive.
The percentages weren't helpful anyway. Sheet stats mean jack diddly.
Same here. I am so hooked right now. Really loving this game.
I played the 360 version and got burnt out so quick, wasnt even sure I was going to buy this game. I got sucked into the hype by a friend and I'm glad I did. The expansion and all of the tweaks they added really amped up the fu factor for me.
This game is great.

Maybe to you and me, but for most people it is nice to know whether your gonna salvage an upgrade or not.
I work 50 hours a week, have too much time to play and it's depressing.

How much xp do you get for an average kill? Like, if I have +100xp/kill, am I getting double the normal amount, or is it more like 1000+100, or 10+100?
If u got 100 exp a kill you get 100 exp.per.kill. No percentage

The latter. Unless it's specific "+ %", it's flat bonus.
Something weird happened last night when PSN was maintenance. I was still playing as usual and then, then the Nemesis appeared. It previous victim was, much to my surprise, me, while the most recent Nemesis that I let out was 2 days ago. Now I'm really curious at how this system works.

Hey fellas, I'm new to the Diablo series and am loving D3. I recently got my Wizard to Lv70 and am wondering if anyone knows a good way to farm legendary items in solo mode.
Press Square/ Xbox equivalent on an affix to see what it can turn into when you enchant it.

Anyone on Xbox One could help brother out? I am looking for gold/gems/any gear donation you could offer, I just want to level some SC character to play with my buddies, no one plays HC on Xbox One.
In return I can give you away some HC gold/gems (level 70 gems) and cain set for leveling on Hardcore.
I don't mind duped gems and items, since I just want to play EZ mode on consoles while having fun. I already grinded my way to paragon 500 on PC with one of the best Lightning Monk gear sets in the world this may, so I seen everything game has to offer until Season start this friday.

Yes. Don't waste mats, best crafted set is Aughild's, the only 2 pieces that are worth crafting are Reaper's Wraps and Aughild's Set. Cain's and Captain's might be worth it as well, Demon Skin is one of the worst sets in game.
That's a very small amount unless you're low level basically.
My account on PC is paragon 285 or so and I take like 500,000,000 to level, per mob is a lot more than 10

Yeah, I know the gear gives me a fixed xp bonus, but what is that number added to?
Examples:
Mob gives 10xp; 100 xp bonus means you level 1000% faster
Mob gives 100xp; 100 xp bonus means you level 100% faster
Mob gives 1000xp; 100 xp bonus means you level 10% faster
Right now, I'm getting +48/kill, and my GF is getting +220/kill. A few levels ago, she was about a half-level behind me, and now she's a half level ahead. So now I'm trying to figure out if her 4.6x bonus XP is making her level 5x faster than me, or 1.2x, or what.
So are we getting 100/kill before modifiers, or more like 1000/kill, or some other amount?
Edit: She just dinged 53, and I'm half-way through 52. We just bumped up to hard last night. (Did most of our leveling on vanilla D3.)

I'm just about to start adventure mode as a lvl 70 crusader. Up to now I have just been equipping items and gems that have high strength. Is there another stat that I should be building up as well? I have a lot of other gems and I am not sure what to do with them
Do bounties and rifts in Adventure Mode. Also, spend your blood shards with Kadala and you'll get a low chance at some legendaries/set pieces. Bump the difficulty up into Torment when you're ready for it because the rate legendaries drop at goes up in each subsequent Torment level, not to mention there are alot of legendaries that only drop in Torment.

Strength mainly, yeah, but some Vitality doesn't hurt either. No dex or int whatsoever, though.
I believe the flat number is added before multiplier, for each monster you killed. Like the mob gives 10xp/each, with +100xp bonus means you earn 110xp for each monster you killed, and if you have +150% exp bonus (I assume you're playing on expert), then it means you gain 275xp for each one.
So yeah, flat number is great when you are under 70.

Sorry, but are you sure about that number, because that's the number I'm actually questioning. If mobs give 10 xp, a 100 xp bonus is indeed huge, and I should start giving up Int or something to get it. However, if mobs give 1000 xp, then 100 isn't terribly significant, and the 8-12 xp I get from a given piece of gear is even less so.
More to the point, are me and my GF gonna speed away from each other if we don't keep our bonus xp comparatively close? We don't particularly care how long it takes to get to 70 though we don't want to drag our feet either but we don't want one of us to hit 70 a week before the other one does. See where I'm coming from?
Why? Is that when mobs start giving 1000 unmodified instead of 10 unmodified?

I'm going to be running a bunch of normal Act 1 bounties because I hate myself if anyone wants in.

Thank you kindly. I switched to Torment and got killed pretty quick by the first purple mob I ran across. Time to grind.

Finally.
My wusscore friends have kept me away too much time but finally today I could sit down and play hardcore.
Lvl 31 at the moment, just killed Maghda. Expert difficulty.

Just ran a Rift and got Natalya's Slayer as a drop...I count that as a victory for me
At least I know I can handle Torment 1 right now but I still need to improve a lot as far as gear goes.

So I made both Aughilds Spike and Aughilds Rule. If I equip both my dps goes from 569 to 544 and my armour goes from 4667 to 3948. Should I equip them anyway due to the -15% damage from elites and +15% damage to elites? Would that still make up the difference?

This is me exactly. I can do the torment 1 but I'm running around like an idiot and turtling every 35 seconds. Cleared Act 1 bounties though!
I need new gear I'm a bum pls help crusaderGAF
Mobs level with you, so not really.

You are really over thinking things. You will probably both reach 70 within a day or two of each other if you normally only play together. A few levels difference won't matter anyway. I played just fine using a level 40 monk with my wife's level 69 crusader.
PS: exploding palm + impending doom is great for group play.

I would definitely take that trade off since elites are usually the mobs that would kill you.

The higher your level, the higher xp the mobs give. Monster's level always scales with your host player's level. I don't think you have to worry much about that. I played with one of my friend who's 30 level lower than me, and even though we have about the same +xp number, currently when I reached 61, he's already 56. It will slows down when you are at higher level. After 60 I believe it's better to just have percentage bonus in xp than flat number.

You can change them whenever you want. Select a category like you want to add a point and press Square. That will refund you the points then just put them where you want.
I just use the PS4's Share button to take them

Just started a Demon Hunter after playing a Crusader from level 1 to Paragon 41.
I'm shocked by how differently DH plays than any other class (I've played Mage, Witch Doctor, and Crusader extensively) it's seriously like an shooter now. All the finesse required is fascinating. Just seems like it takes longer to kill things than with other classes, but I'm only level 12 so we'll see.

I did Dex (main stat), All res, resource reduction & either critical chance or damage whichever was lower. It seems to have worked pretty well for me so far (paragon 87).
