COTA runs are boring as shit to level in. It made it even worse when I realized I had been doing it on "normal" for an hour............................................ >_>

Yeah but Cota is so easy to farm, have 100 paragon points now which makes any alt leveling trivial.
I wish you could disable the 10 seconds you have to wait when you exit a game tho

Does that reset the instance tho? thought you had to exit out to reset it.
Or are you saying if you TP to town then exit you don't have to wait the lockout.

You TP from COTA and exit the game, when you hit resume you have a TP up in the town back into the dungeon, this way you don't have to wait the 10 seconds

so now that I got the WD build down (and holy shit: everyone was right it's a shitload easier), what should I run for easy drops?
I was doind t2 rumford runs last night, and then did a few more this morning (and actually scored an upgrade). Should I try to farm up machines/plans? COTA runs? Stick in the eye?

COTA runs are just good for leveling paragon, not for drops as far as I understand it. Nothing beats just playing through the game in my opinion, although I will say that I did ubers with Krassus and a couple others last weekend and got 5 legendaries from about 20 machines.

Doesn't really matter what you do for drops. Speedrunning the game on Normal might be slightly better than the alternatives, but it's not a big deal. Do whatever you find fun. I do a healthy mix of running through the game, some COTA and some key farming. Mostly I just join friends, level another character, or just play something else if I'm solo. It's not worth farming a ton now anyway, it's all gone in a week.

That was my boys trolling lol.
If we get a 2h to drop, wiz hat or something along those lines well wait until the next uber dies or big boss and drop a legendary for the person with us. They actually had a bunch of older ones you could trade we threw out all day. I think you or someone noticed it was lower level and we almost got caught haha.
We fucking die in our mumble when we do it, peoples comments are awesome.

I doubt speedrunning normal is better than farming a place, even including the guaranteed legendary, there's way too much "downtime" with moving from point to point in desolate areas and shitty quest stuff. It's more varied though but like if you don't mind farming specific areas you're probably better off running high density areas over and over.
I've done it with strafe to kill everything/break everything while moving at high speed with tactical advantage and vault tumble, shit takes about 1h30 so it's very fast(could be faster mind you I was looting whites and gems and shit like that to sell on the AH, was last week) but there's still way too often nothing to kill at all or like groups of shitty 5mobs per screen.

Yeah that was me, and it was the wiz hat, and I noticed it was not account bound right away and that it was a level 56 requirement... and you guys are fucking asshole
I think that was the only one though. The other 3 legendaries I got were account bound so no trolling there.

I did about 15 portals the other day T3-T4 with 4 people and we honestly did get about a total of 8 legendaries or so. Fairly certain they fall under the 'purple mob' rule and have better legendary chance.

Yeah I don't know noticed I had one but couldn't be bothered finding why or how to remove it. I had another before too that I also didn't ask for, something maniac or whatever.

I ran T1 full clear as a monk (non TR build) with a wizard with TP and we cleared start to finish in about 2h15m. Could easily get that shit down to 90minutes or faster. I got 1 legendary for act 1, 1 for act 2, 2 for at 3, and just the Diablo kill for act 4.
I was playing around with WM runs on T6 last night, but my new Wiz only has 242k dps and 510k toughness. Yard trash is ok, as are some packs, but with dps so low, stuff can take a long time to kill. Fucking Quills chased me almost back to the starting area before I finally got em. My only problem is that I've been getting shafted on upgrades. I only had one minor dps upgrade in the last week (3%). I need to find a good fast farming run to get my poor newb out of the gear doldrums.
