They could fix a lot if trials were removed and you could just spend a greater rift key to get into the highest level rift you've beaten in time + 1.

Also the gap between people still doing t6 and those running 40's speed with exp gear is laughably huge. You're basically wasting your time in t6 these days, greater rift 35 is about the new T6 with power of the new gear that's been introduced. People can do speed 40's with exp gear and get from 1-600 + paragon in a couple days easily. The way group exp bonus/exp gear/exp gems and the exp bonus from greater rifts interact makes leveling too easy. Like P800 after a week easy. Not sure where they are going with this but kinda defeats the purpose of paragon points when they're maxed out so easily in the season. Anything outside of doing greater rift 35+ with a 4p group just feels like a huge waste of time.

Besides that.. having a lot of fun with the new tal rasha set pieces but there's a lot of glaring issues at end game that i'm hoping get sorted out for season 4.

I can solo clear high 30s grift in ~4 minutes, but I can't speed clear it like I can a T6 rift. Still have to pay attention and play cautiously, so I still T6 for farming items. I'll probably go back to 38 grifts when I get bored and need to switch something up.


And they REALLY need to remove prerolled sockets from legendary weapons. Basically never going to get an ancient BK sword with the affixes I want(IAS, LoH, socket) because of that stupid oversight. Let alone getting two. This stupid restriction is what keeps me from speed farming grifts instead of T6.

It's all about getting into some communities and hitting GR 35+ with a 4player group. Back in oldschool diablo it wasn't worth grouping with anybody and somewhere along the lines they overbuffed grouping and now it's not worth being playing solo. The current meta is all about recycling GR 35+ keys with a 4p group and anything outside of that is terribly ineffective.

Seasonal Grifts
Sheep Farmers
Leet
Season 3 Legit

Leet and Season 3 legit both have gear/paragon requirements with Leet being less stringent and Season 3 Legit being the chan with the highest caliber of players usually.

People want barbs for exp groups because of the movement speed group buffs. Standard exp group will look like Zdps (wd,monk,cru), barb, then 2 range dps with dh being prefered but wiz also accepted.

Really hope they get rid of trials sooner than later. I'm so bored of having to do trials just so I can experience the only thing left in the game for me. They ruin the entire flow of the game.

I bet trials are gone for next season. They claim they have already done away with them in daily builds. The "best completed +1" trial stone vendor makes the most sense. Is there any down side to that?

Well in that post someone linked a page or so ago they said they didn't like that because they know it will always be possible to go higher grift with a group then solo and then when you're playing solo if you want to lvl a gem you're going to want to do the highest grift possible even if it means you die 30x. But the answer to that seems pretty fucking simple, just do that with the highest grift you have soloed. I guess they haven't done that because that then doesn't fully solve the issue for group play/pushing group leaderboards, but that is still eons better than what we have now.

I'm able to solo gr40 but no higher until I get my follower trinket. I've been using gr keys solo and starting about gr 20 and then choosing to upgrade key so I get a few uses out of it. I haven't tried grouping or replacing my helm gem with a ruby, how much would that help speed things up???

I still have to run t6 to farm up more gr keys, I go through them pretty fast.

Feel free to add me if you need a rush Strifen#1543

Just beat a 56 last night back up to rank 5. Working on getting some 57 keys made and going for rank 1 wiz on the americas.

Yup that's why I just leech other peoples keys now. I hang out in communities and wait until people have mid 40's keys they have already made but need dps for. You just need to show up with a recycle key (1 greater rift key higher then the ones you're doing) and then you keep upgrading keystone and recycling that 1 key. I haven't done trials for a few days but I've done like 200 + lvl 40ish greater rifts with my 1 recycle key. winning.

You running the fotm tals build? I got a couple pieces of that new delsere set while farming on my WD but I haven't tried wiz since I quit halfway through s1. Delsere seems fun but I dont have the wand that cuts the CD on slowtime yet.

Yeah Delsere is pretty meh. It's all about tal rasha set for wizards this season.

Been having a lot of fun since coming back for season 3. Now have more plevels on this character than on my main (and better gear) in about 1/3 the play time. Been 4-boxing DH's and all now have 6p Unhallowed, deadmans legacy and 3 with F&R, main only has restraint so far but weapon makes up for that

This is where I'm at currently with main (try and keep all 4 characters about equal in power so if one dies the rest still have a chance to finish a fight), the meticulous bolts was me trying out a different build based on the weapons
