    Either the Simulacrum has been nerfed harder than I realized or I'm getting a bad streak. 40 w/o a voices drop. Only 2 or 3 megalos. One split personality which was decent.

    Chris is doing a different podcast every week for the next two weeks. Such a smart PR move by GGG. They know that while some of the questions might be tough that none of these people are trained interviewers. The chances that Chris can get away with one of his standard Chris answers are high...

    Deep Delving is the only end-game content that has the ability to test the power levels that have been relatively attainable for 5+ years. It amazes me that players were able to surprise GGG with the depths they could reach. Pre-nerf harvest was an issue because of the lack of content to...

    I hit that point that Chris mentioned in 3.13. I could have gone further with the character. But, I was already instant phasing Maven. Other than delve, and mostly with specific builds, there is no content in-game for that power level. But, I've hit similar points since at least legion, if...

    That was my experience in red maps as well. Then again, I haven't had enough of the flask orbs to try to roll the setup I want.

    DW's exsanguinate mines build is one of the best league starters I've played in a while. It was cheap to gear going into red maps. The high strength and int requirements were the only slight pain. The damage is starting to look low but I'll see how it feels once I get my first Sirus. The...

    I must have a good RNG seed for log books because I've had 6 drop. Most of them were before the patch last night. Dannig even has 2 for me I can't afford yet too.

    Lack of currency from the league mechanic added to some bad RNG can easily feel like a currency nerf.

    I came across this profile when looking at skills/builds. Is this some big brain hexblast? That looks like 7 skills before even hitting hexblast on a boss. But, the dmg looks interesting for the investment. Edit: I missed the trigger mod on the gloves reducing 3 of the skills.

    I'm about to make my third alt but haven't bothered farming maps. I'm just messing with different skills as starters. I feel zero added difficulty in act1 but I expected as much. TTK is longer, of course, which adds to what GGG did accomplish. They just made the game more annoying. I can...

    Bro, are you being serious with that POB? That's a several hundred exalt character. There is only a handful of us that could afford that build. I'm not sure on the bow but 100-150ex? The 4 cit multi jewels are 50ex+ each. No secret that with a few hundred exalts Ele hit is OP. It has been...

    I found the Asmongold interview to be mostly fluff. They even fell for the Chris meme of being honest when he doesn't know the answer. But, Chris did mention that some part of the loot rework is due this year. Are we getting smart loot and/or loot dropping in stacks next league?

    And the players with less time investment will mostly be exposed to the main builds streamers/content creators are playing. Each time the build they play gets nerfed they will turn to the same sources. GGG's development choices to not slightly nerf and bring others up, but to usually decimate...

    FOMO builds and farming strats are generally efficient. Efficiency is even more important if one has limited time. This is an economy-based game, where one get can price locked from upgrades let alone entire builds. While I am not in that demographic I can completely understand their point.

    IMO, the maven points made the already long Atlas progression a little more rewarding through the slog. I only had to go back and do a few sets in certain regions to finish them. Since I wasn't going to farm in more than a few regions it felt fine. I wasn't a fan of it the first round in 3.13...

    AFAIK they haven't released hard numbers for old content such as Shaper kills in quite some time. The last information--I don't recall the league--was a GGG dev saying that too many people were killing bosses and they didn't like that.

    Unless they have some interesting flask enchants, other than the auto use on ailment, I'm not sure how this really changes much. The flasks set to auto consume on ailment seem rather dead for anything else. Flasks one wants up as much as possible would still be in a macro.

    idk about that. Chris flatly said they could implement any number of trade systems at any time. They choose not to because easy trade destroys player retention. He even went so far as to mention that SSF has better player retention than trade. He said all that in the Q&A during the answer to...

    Tons of Diablo in this league. IDK about those flask changes. Also, hardcore gauntlets gave them the idea to make the campaign harder? Some of the skills look interesting. The league mechanic is a larger mix of previous mechanics than I expected--looks interesting. Battle Royale could be a...

    Ultimatum wasn't enough of a change from Ritual. IMO, without the atlas/maven changes Ritual would have been just as bad as Ultimatum. Ultimatums are more rewarding than standard rituals. But, filled vessels were definitely much better. Granted, I'm also ignoring my two mirrors from filled...

    Create your own filter, from whatever base you like, and change the tiers or create a custom rule for the currency. AFAIK, no one offers automatic custom changes when subscribing to someone else's filter. I'm not sure what ronne means. All of my filters are account bound on filterblade and I...

    lol. I joined them last week for leveling as well. I hit 50 today and went on some raids tonight--spoiler, they were bad. I'm fairly certain the leadership is just using the zerg invites to scam plat out of noobs. They do open plat bids--with a split at the end--and everything went for maybe...

    AFAIK mouse 1 and 2 are the only ones that work that way. You would need to parse the log for when you're in your HO/town. Or, just add a suspend hotkey?

    You can use offerings of the goddess to spawn random trials from your map device. But, you won't get an offering back. There is also a prophecy that increases the chances of a random trial in maps.

    Any recommendations on a fast mapping build to do thicc packs in Valdo's? Now that I've out farmed their daily price hike, DW has killed my desire to try the gloves. Tuna's clear speed, with the ring build, doesn't seem that impressive for the investment. Maybe last league's BV pathfinder has...
