This game is so easy on Expert! Mash mash mash.. (act 1 still)
The controls and UI are perfect though.

So glad I bought this. Also got a controller for my wife for some fun couch co--op.
Note: Wife does not have PS+. I do. I created a PSN account for her. Started a game with my PS+ Character then joined her to it. Then joined a friend over the internet.
Just mentioning this because a few pages back somebody said both couch players have to have PS+ to be able to join with an online friend. This is incorrect, it worked fine for us.

Break down everything into components. You don't need to sell anything as you can pick up enough gold in the field. As a rule, I never buy gear from the merchants unless it's dyes or a very good upgrade.
So just defeated one of the earlier Act 2 bosses and was rewarded with a legendary ring with great stats and it also spawns a treasure goblin that says he can pick up items and drop rares or even legendaries after he acquires a certain amount. Anyone have experience with this ring? Is it any good?

Nah, we only meant a proper PS account and not a guest login. You don't need a full-blown PS+ account for your second player.
This game hates me . I can see my friends online I can receive and send gifts but I cant play with anyone online. I will join a party and see the other peoples characters and they say mine disappears. Then I just get a loading screen that never ends. If someone tries to join my game they get an error. My other Ps4 games get online. I can get to the store and use party chat and everything. This is torture!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Look in items, first section above potions.
It shows up in their mailbox in town
EDIT: After you send it, super-famicon is right about the initial location

It will pick up gray and white gear. Every 15 items it picks up, it will drop a rare or legendary. It will have the max number of affixes (not necessarily max rolls).
Salvage pretty much everything you pick up that you don't need, unless it's Rimeheart.
Very worth it.
One thing I noticed is the input interpreter is a little smarter than the PC version. On PC, if you hold down a button for a resource generator and then hold down a button for a resource spender, it will do the spender until you run out, and then do normal attacks (as in, attacking with your weapon instead of using your weapon to activate your generator). On console, it will attack with your generator until you build up enough resources to use your spender, and then switch back to your spender automatically, and back again. So you can just press and hold the two buttons you wanna use in reverse order, and the game will play how you would want it to, instead of having to press and release to switch. You can then concentrate on aim and positioning instead of resource management.

How does it play on the Vita? I heard things. Terrible things.

The Demon Hunter's Sentry ability helps clear out areas so fast...Me, the Follower (Enchantress right now), Companion (Spider), and 2 Spitfire Sentries makes for a good solo time

Do some people just... not send gift legs? I haven't gotten one yet. I've sent out like 10 gifts, some people getting 2 or 3.

Thank you for mentioning this, I was curious as well, and won't have a PS4 until 9/9.

I'm a wizard and I play with a demon hunter. Sometimes we just let our hydra and sentry do all the work. I can put the controller down and go grab a drink from the fridge.

How does that work? I've been trying to figure out how to play my PS4 via Vita online. Is there a setting I have to change?
The puzzle ring is pretty good.
You pick up white or even grey based items and it actually will drop a decent amount of legendaries. As a starting item or something you're using to farm for more it's pretty damn good.

Console Vanilla was already super awesome, my GOTY (except I only started playing it this year). This version may be even better, but really not that much better, so I find the enthusiasm in this thread a bit surprising (in a good way). How come the previous version wasn't this popular? It was already an incredibly good game. Is it the next gen versions? I must admit it does look quite a bit better on PS4
You're basically not even halfway through the tutorial :-D You'll get your challenge in time, don't worry :-D But yeah, this part of the game is a bit boring, although not nearly as bad as in vanilla, where you had to complete the campaign 3 times to begin the game. Levelling up to 70 is like 1% of the time you'll spend on the game if you really get into it :-D

Nemesis fights can be weird. I have killed several without much sweat, but occasionally I've taken on a couple that practically one-shot me. Most recently I was whittling one down with a mage from a distance, then he used Scorpion's chain to pull me close and I went from full health to death instantly. Felt really cheap, but maybe they were crazy powered up from killing a few heroes in a row.
Also fought one in co-op where we almost had it dead, and then another player joined in on top of us from town and was instantly killed when he warped in which was kind of funny. Sadly watched the Nemesis jump back into the portal powered-up to head to someone else and we couldn't do a thing.
RNG is a cruel mistress. I've sent somewhere between 10-15, and have gotten... 2 (and both from the same guy)

make sure your PS4 is linked to your vita- have your PS4 hooked to the internet-have your vita in a wifi area/connected to the internet- connect to your ps4 and select 'remote play'
done- if you have a decent wifi signal it should be relatively smooth.
EDIT: and NO- nobody apparently sends gifts. I have sent out almost 30 in the last 2 days and received 2.
people STILL dont get the fact that you manually send them via your inventory...I am just starting Act V and I have obtained only one legendary that was meant for gifting (cannot remember, but it was someone here on GAF). However, I have received 4 (1 from someone on my friends list who I don't know, and 3 from my wife, because I am the only person on her friends list with D3). Add me (PSN: baconcow1812) to your friends list for an increased chance to get a gifted legendary. I plan on playing a lot.
My advice, sell all the loot till you start getting 60+ loot. Reason for this is the end gear items require 60+ mats. And you wanna start getting some money once you unlock the Mystic.

Am I crazy for thinking loot drops are TOO good and frequent?
Yea, I've gone long periods without any mail. Then randomly last night I got 4 pieces of legendaries in my box at once.
I regularly send grey pieces of waistcloth personally to lucky Diablo GAF friends though. Gotta make sure everyone is wearing clean undies!

You'll appreciate it when you're at level 70 and looking for specific pieces that never happen to drop

Yeah, seriously. I was having no luck at all, and then I end up getting 3 or 4 good upgrades within an hour.

I don't think I've gotten any gift drops to send so far (although I haven't played a super large amount and am still low level). Where would they show up in my inventory?

I just killed the butcher but the achievement didn't unlock. It shows 100 percent but it still is locked. Any ideas why?

I've had a blast playing this online with Gaffers, but it takes forever to add everyone. I think I've only gotten 20ish added so far. Had 2 monsters invade last night. Each killed us and moved on. It sucks if they kill one party member they take off.
In the items section with potions/crafting mats/gems. They have their own section.
Would someone kindly explain gifting to me? Last night I had about 10 mails from people, some legendary some ordinary.
Do I get specific drops that are gift items that I can send to people, or is it that I can give away some items instead of keeping them, or is it sometimes an item drops and randomly sends to a random friend....

I have received more than I have had available to gift. One of the gifts I had to give was for the Nemesis I killed. I have only been granted 1 gift from a legendary drop I had. It sounds like you somehow have just had great luck with the gift drops. I promise I send out any that show up in my inventory.
