Yeah, it takes like two weeks to get to the point where you can play several days straight without finding an upgrade. It's pretty stupid.
I am not even remotely geared with top-end stuff (I'm very middle-grade) and I haven't seen an upgrade drop in a week or 2 personally.

Found a Tal neck... +1 int over minimum and 54% CD with no single resist or elemental damage. What a waste.

What's the point of Spirit Walk and Zombie Dogs?

I feel like Spirit Walk was used more so for movement, than actually getting out of Oh Shit situations. Maybe on higher Torments it's necessary to save your ass? I don't know. I just farm T1, and it's absolutely not necessary.

And zombie dogs. The dudes do shit damage, and with the Fetish passive, Garg, and Fetish Army, there's never a lack of "tanks" or "meat shields" so what's the point? I'm running a Fire build still, and would much rather have Searing Locusts.
Yeah I've never not had spirit walk,but then haven't done < t4 in a while. Dogs aren't meant for dps so forget about any rune except lifelink and leeching beasts. If u have a uhkapian serpent then u just want lifelink.

I doubt you'd care about that if you're happy with t1-3 though. You barely even need 6m toughness back then iirc.

Did they massivly nerf the legendary drop rate last patch? Im asking because I usualy got on every 2 rift runs before but have now gotten about zero the last few days.

(True, due to blizzards total lack of ability to keep the servers working without random disconnects or rediculous latency issues, ive not managed to get that many hours of play done, but still...)

I think they need to buff drops another 100%, would put it on par with MH. MH unique don't have dynamic/random stats either, but yet their drop rate is much more reasonable. The combination of random stats with few guaranteed ones, and the amount of legendaries available, it seems needed.

What is the secret in the breached keep friends? 1/2 of our clan is remaking games there over and over and like 75% of my friends list is also.

Everyone is also on a WD? share the sekritz

I think they absolutely could buff legendary drop rates another 100% or at least give a chance for forgotten souls to drop off elites not affected by legendary timer because I have 3 or 4 items I've been trying to reroll on my main, but I'm out of souls. Thats also not even trying to improve rolls I have already gotten. And then I have several items I'd like to reroll on an alt and several pieces I'd like to craft for another alt. Also as many have mentioned the same fucking option should never be there more than once on rerolls. I didn't get a single fucking soul/legendary last night in about 2 and 1/2 hours play about half spent in t1 and the other half in t3.

You guys really should be doing RIF(Rift It Forward). 1.5 hours last night, a bit under 1k shards, 14 souls, decent amount of gold and xp, and the cost was 30 frags. Until they fix the retarded drop system, might as well abuse the fuck out of it. Warning: leeching RIF is boring. You can be a runner, it will cost you less frags and will up your drops, but you'll get less souls and shards.

As for the mystic, fuck that bitch. Spent most of those souls and 7M gold trying to get a blessed shield affix on my Aughild's helm, no luck. Sharded the piece out of frustration. Seriously thinking about self-imposing a limit on rerolling. Unless the rest of the stats are REALLY well rolled, I stop after 5 rerolls. Gold cost is just too exorbitant after that.

Ghom runs? Best XP/gold per hour and decent legendary drop rate. Other than that, no idea!

Hmm, haven't heard any type of new afk farming or chest/xp runs of any type there yet through the normal channels (since they always get leaked). Very good question, curious now too

Maybe botting Ghom? But even then, didnt think botting is that widespread and Doubtful most people in the clan would do it. Don't care about botting anyways, as long as they do it during work hours and actually play with people during primetime and not bot 24/7 (which makes no sense since there is no trading, etc).

Most of my Xp/sets came from running ghom. it's tedious and boring as fuck, but i'm now sitting on a solid pile of gold and have completed the two main sets i wanted on the barb. Now if only Zuni could start dropping, ugh.

Anecdotal evidence, but I've been playing in the morning when the clan is pretty quiet. I used to go solo, and would get a leg every 1-3 rifts. Instead, I do public games, open rifts there and try to stay grouped. Having the group loot buff seems to help a ton as I've gone up to 1-2 legs per rift. I have pretty shit luck with sets though. Only 1 piece of Tals, 1 of Firebirds, and a Blackthornes... I used my Tal offhand for awhile bc I heard that it increases the chances of other pieces in that set dropping, but no luck on getting any more

Good thing about killing Ghom on a Barb is with Superstition his poison gives you basically unlimited fury

Got quite a few rifts in with guild groups yesterday and got lucky with a drop as well as generosity from guildies. Picked up my first cindercoat and magefist as well as 1 more set piece. I switched over to full fire build with mirrorball (still trying to get +2 version of that)

Not sure what to use for my last skill(s), what do you think? I have MM and Meteor as the two mains, then familiar/sparkflint and magic weapon for my dps boosters. For the last two skills I am using Archon for the single target DPS and then blackhole/blazar but I'm not sure if that is really doing anything for me.

That spec if the standard fire build, meteor being the AoE, MM being used for single.

I would make sure to go Magic Weapon - Deflection instead of Force. It is a very underrated rune

Passives: Conflagration is a must. I would also use Blur as it is one of the best defensive passive ingame. Unwavering Will is always good since it'll synergize with Blur in terms of being able to stay still and take some hits, or you can swap for Elemental Exposure. I personally run Dominance since it is OP in Rifts in which any kills done by your party refreshes stacks, no matter if they are 5yds away or across the map.

(my current profile setup is wrong. Using WoF to speed rush through normal bounties since it once shots and doesnt have the meteor delay.)

Been running my hardcore crusader for a few hours now at 70 (shelved my HC WD this past week), My first legendary was Darklight(48% chance of a double cast of fist of heaven), So I used it for a pretty fun Holy mage type build, even if it was a subpar roll and 1handers in general are fairly weak given how weak in general crusader passives are. Now about 4 hours later I got a maximus with a 20% Fire dmg roll...

Fire crusader is actually pretty fun, much more powerful for sure than the holy build I was using. But now I'll need to get cindercoat or magefists to really finish up the set... Also don't really like how I have much more limited choice in terms of builders. Although at least I have 2 viable wrath spenders.

I am actually using Magic Weapon - Ignite. Some t6 wizard said that was the highest dps rune so I took his word for it.

I'll have to look at my passives to see what I have as I'm not sure on the official names of them. I do know I have conflagration, I have the one that gives more dmg and health when I stand still, I have the one that brings me back to life if I die, and the last one is the one that gives you faster arcane regen.
