I use the old junk to hold me over until I get the ancient version, then trash the old piece.

What did other people do?
Ancient is a very small impact on things that aren't your Weapon. A "good 4-stat" non-ancient version will beat out an ancient version without 4 good stats.

Ancient Weapons club non-ancient weapons like a baby seal though. 30% more weapon damage is beast.

Wondering, is there any point in doing anything but 2 or 6 for bounties? .
Do T6 bounties in public groups even if you can't do them. Ride along with someone else in the group. Even if people mind doing the bounties takes like 5 minutes total and you won't see those guys ever again.

I only keep shit in the stash that I know are part of top-end builds, for the most part. When it comes to gear, at least.

That's the problem with witch doctors. They have multiple top end builds, so for WD's, I started multiple WDs, and just have the gear for each one on that character, so I'm not trying to stuff it all into one.

I'll clear some stuff out that won't be good trade fodder, since I'm on console, and free up some room.

Is there any "best" way to go about farming unity. I have never had one drop..ever. This season I'm at Paragon 250+ like the RoRG do I have to run bounties for a better chance? Kadala most likely place to get it? I've been trying to get my sunwuko's shines amulet from Kadala and a few thousand shards later it just seems like a waste of points, but I really need it to be able to switch my helm out. The 100 cost is BS

Have they shown what the IK set changes are yet?
Don't think so, I didn't find them when searching for patch info.

Crone - Usually you can just look and see that you hoard stuff that was never good in the first place.. I do it all the time. For the most part, most non-ancient weapons are shit if you already have one. There are a few exceptions but not many. Well rolled gear is still good, so hold onto the crucial set pieces/rings/amulets/etc. Even if you roll an ancient, it could still roll bad and not be worth swapping out a non-ancient.

Ancient armor items do make you tougher and that can matter as things progress.

Earlier someone was asking what torment to play, you want to play the highest that you can clear with good speed. My understanding is that ancient items have a greater chance to spawn per legendary that drops at higher torments. I could be mistaken. This does not apply to crafting or Kadala though.

So for ancient weapons, is it worth swapping away from one of the better 2h to move over to 2 ancient 1h's? To my knowledge most of the classes are running 2h (Barbs anyway which is what I'm playing). Using a pretty solid Maximus (thanks Janx) but I do have 2 ancient 1h's - the set one and I think the fire axe.

This is so true! It's a little different because I'm on Ps4 has trading, so I hang on to stuff that I see is fairly popular for trading, but usually if it's popular, it's good, and I'd be keeping it anyway.

I need to get my friends list back going for Ps4 version! Used to have peeps playing every single night to play with!

I got a max damage rolled Sun Keeper so I use that on hand and some other Ancient as my off hand and it is better then my well rolled Furnace on my Barb. Once you get a decent Ancient 2H it will be better but I seem to get everything Ancient except two handers

I think you're imagining things. A well-rolled Furnace is better than an ancient 2H that isn't a Furnace, Heart Slaughter, Maximus (only if you have the gear for the fire build), and maybe 1 or 2 other things if they roll exceptionally well. Ancient 1H weapons aren't even in the ballpark.

Btw if any of you bros are still playing this on hardcore feel free to hit me up. Just started my dh last night, killed Diablo and am lvl 50. Begaro #1704 feel free to add me. I'm pretty shitty since I got a buriza at 33, and just got the instant exploding quiver. Ah well.

Nope, the build on my Barb is pretty much copy and pasted from all the other Raekor builds you see around the net. I would link my weapons but last time I played him I was clearing T6 in a group so I have the gay two handed set weapon on because I found mixing Raekors and Immortal Kings helped me at least do something when I had a Demon Hunter or Wizard in the party.

Anyone know offhand if Gifts show up on the minimap with the legendary/set icon or not?

Is the 2h hierarchy still pretty set? Using a decent Maximus (~3300 dps or so) but I've looted maybe 4 or 5 2h's with more dps just not sure how to weigh the proc. Scourge, the IK 2h, an Executioner, Skorn's, and I think 1 more best of them is up around ~3600 dps or so.
