GeForce Now is blocked at work?
Ha, I was about to post how I'm playing it on there. I wonder why they have access, I thought it would be exclusive to Ubi.

I'm pretty sure any game you can play on Steam is playable on GFN too.
Developer’s Note: This change means the following affixes will now scale properly. For almost all of these, the issue applies only to the duration of the affix. Duration wasn't meant to scale, but it incorrectly scaled with upgrades through Masterworking. Any changes beyond that will be listed below.
Developer’s Note: Players that lost Resplendent Sparks will have them restored when logging into an Eternal Character.
Can someone explain this build to me? Or is maxroll just letting any donkey shit up on its site at this point?

The skills make no sense. You do not have enough skill slots to be using everything it wants. No I’m not talking about fire bolt going into enchant slot, I’m talking about using :
Frozen orb
Flame shield
Ice armor
Teleport
Ice blades
Lightning spear
Unstable currents
That’s one too many for active slots. If you look at the photo of which slots are active then you see spear isn’t. However, without using spear during currents, you will never actually do anything with currents because it can’t proc.
Help me make sense of this.
If it’s as fucked as it seems then I need to just get rid of all points in currents and spear and just throw it into frost nova, get bonuses from freezing stuff, and have no ult. Plus redo the final passive skill selection too.
????Rogue has builds like this with that swirling shadow shield that you slot but not in an active skill slot... one of the gear aspects frequently activates it without it being an active skill you hit manually. Maybe similar to build you posted?
I'm using this build and you don't need to have all the skills slotted, only the ones at the top of the page, under the character, and place some in the two enchant slots :????
How do you slot something but not activate it? I’m playing on controller so does keyboard somehow get more skill slots?
This is the active skill slots discussed. This makes no sense.
Which one is better overall?

I'm using this build and you don't need to have all the skills slotted, only the ones at the top of the page, under the character, and place some in the two enchant slots :
Keyboard and controller have 6 slots, keyboard does not get more skill keys.
The aspect of the unique amulet "Fractured Winterglass" give a chance for Frozen Orb to spawn a random conjuration skill (even those you did not unlock).
Unlocking the Lightning Spear is needed to unlock its mods and benefit from it (increased critical strike chance and enemy stun), even if you don't slot the skill (the amulet can trigger these from the Frozen Orbs).
All these fixes and they still can't un-break Frame Generation from the last update.
The fractured winterglass ammy will summon conjurations (take a look at the tags) like ice blades, hydra, andOk now explain how to make the ultimate actually proc when you use it. It only works when you cast a shock skill. Therefore it will never cast a random skill for its effects, yes you gain 25% attack speed but you’re not attacking when you cast orbs are you? That would only effect a basic skill hence why arc lash is always used in conjunction with this ult.
So I assume the ultimate is wasted 2 skill points then? I could replace it to add frost nova or throw the 2 points into spear or ice blades or something.
So then my question is - what purpose does having ult on the usable skills bar matter?The fractured winterglass ammy will summon conjurations (take a look at the tags) like ice blades, hydra, and the ultimate, which benefit from the points allocated.
ice blades is for mana regenSo then my question is - what purpose does having ult on the usable skills bar matter?
If the amulet will just summon it on its own, then even having that ability on the bar is meaningless. You wouldn’t need to ever cast it right?
This wouldn't be a proper Blizzard event without bugs and delays kekw.
Attack speed is crucial to cast Frozen Orb faster, the animation stops you when moving, its cast time gets reduced by attack speed, thus you can cast it more (if you have enough mana regen), thus freeze mobs faster.Ok now explain how to make the ultimate actually proc when you use it.

Attack speed plays a crucial role in how the Frozen Orb skill functions in Diablo 4. Let me break it down for you:
Remember, balancing attack speed with other stats like cooldown reduction and mana regeneration is crucial for an effective Frozen Orb build. Happy freezing!
- Frozen Orb Skill:
- Frozen Orb is your primary damage source. It’s an area-of-effect (AoE) attack that unleashes a stream of maxed-out Frozen Orbs to decimate foes from a distance.
- When you use Frozen Orb, it applies the Vulnerable status to targets, making them susceptible to additional damage.
- Attack Speed Impact:
- Attack speed affects Frozen Orb in two key ways:
- Freezing/CC Rate: Higher attack speed means you can freeze or crowd-control enemies more frequently. This is essential for maintaining control over monster packs.
- Casting Animation: Faster attack speed shortens the casting animation, allowing you to start moving sooner after casting Frozen Orb.
- Using a staff with the Aspect of Ancient Flames skill can help compensate for slower attack speed if you choose to go that route.
- Build Customization:
- To maximize your Frozen Orb damage output, consider the following:
- Mystical Ice Armor: Provides a 15% damage buff.
- Esu’s Ferocity and Ancient Flame: These skills increase attack speed.
- Shatter: Useful for high pushing.
- Switch Mystical Teleport and Change Enchanter Glyph to Charged: This adds an extra 15% damage.
You should be on WT3 at lvl 57 to be honestI’m a level 57 wizard playing through the campaign on veteran. This game is really easy so far. Between the damage stacking and regen equipment, I dint even need health potions. I may have used 5 or 6 health potions my entire run.
I normally have fire hitting the enemy from 4 or 5 different sources, and the damage stacks with a bonus for each one. I also stand inside my fire wall which increases damage 25%. Plus, equipment and damage over time bonuses.
I’m interested in seeing the harder levels once I beat the campaign.
It won’t let me switch campaign tiers until I beat the game. I have tried any of the “skip campaign” stuff yet. I would still be called at tier 2, right? Until I beat the campaign?You should be on WT3 at lvl 57 to be honest

Ohh fair enough, it's been so long now I guessYou can't do a capstone dungeon until you complete the campaign.
Yeah, looks like a hunter class witch doctor mix maybe?Almost looks like a witch doctor type character maybe

There were leaks last year that talked about "spiritborn". It's kind of a tribal warrior with spiritual aspects.Yeah, looks like a hunter class witch doctor mix maybe?
The deluxe edition of the add on pack is $89...doesn't mention if it also includes the base game.
Jungle theme looks sick, will buy ultimate dlc package. Yikes ms getting all my monies this year.
I always move up a tier when its available. You can quickly farm gear that will set you up for the tier and from there you climb to the next.Just a question, when should i play on World Tier 3? I've heard at level 35. Is that correct?
