All these salty tears are so fucking delicious. They could actually have a great game if they didn't hate their fans so much. So sad for what it could have been. Maybe the console version will be the superior race; it was for vanilla.

Anybody know if you can do adventure mode to 60, get a friend to give you the act boss quests and only do those quests for free legendaries?
Story sucks but i still want my freebies on a different character
With the exception of Maltheel all the other guaranteed legendaries only work if you are sub 60. Once you hit 60 you no longer get a guaranteed Legendary from the other Act bosses

Here are my current stats, what level torment do you think I should be doing? I have +45% cold damage on boots, source and chest.

I think normal would be good for you.

Wizardspike is unfortunately pretty terrible. It won't let you reroll the useless resist-all and the damage range is super low.
That and 20% chance to cast a frozen orb is actually more like 5%.
I've been using mine for the last few days and see the opposite. It seems to proc incredibly often when just using electrocute, and does a lot of procs off of FO itself (funny looking when it does). I am actually using it over a weapon that has 200more weapon damage as to me, the proc alone is worth several hundred (i'd wager to say even a thousand) in terms of damage rolls. It also double-procs a lot

Expansion is pretty awesome. Surprisingly so.
some maps were huge. i fucking loved it. plot is cliche to the point of hilarity, but somehow enjoyable some reason. they didn't half ass it, like so many games. they did half ass cinematic scenes though. COME ON BLIZZARD. I BUY YOUR STUFF TO WATCH A MOVIE.

I know loot 2.0 isn't perfect but how is this really working out for everyone, obviously some are luckier than others but is everyone progressing fairly well? what are people up to in torment level, how bad is the crafting and actually rerolling items and all that?

the changes seem great, but then it also seems to penalize anyone who didn't buy about 5 billion gold.

Running act5 bounties even as a DH can be painful at times because the maps are gigantic so finding the shit for the bounty takes a while. Story was alright I thought, better than vanilla, even though shorter, but malthael doesn't spend the entire pandemonium spamming you with tweets from the spirit realm and they didn't decide some pink unicorn demon would kill Shen just because. Agree on the lack of cinematic, especially since the intro one was great. Maybe for ladder patch? Seems unlikely but maybe it wasn't finished. Don't care too much.


TecKnoe loot 2.0 is working ok for me, upgrades aren't like super fast once you get very well rolled rares but there's still a bunch of cool items even though a large majority of what you loot is basically crafting materials waiting to be salvaged. Gold issue isn't really a huge issue I think, but crafting does suck quite a bit, mostly the recipes with gems suck, the ones without are ok. Gold mostly an issue if you're trying to gem everything with the higher level gems right away, even though they're 3times as expensive as the tier before and offer very marginal increases. Or if you're trying to craft shit using said gems, which does suck.

Most of the new legendaries I have found to be used for making builds work. Found a belt that give Black Hole a 80 percent snare, which would be pretty awesome for group play since monsters tend to live longer. Hell there is an offhand that makes you fire 3 Magic Missiles instead of 1 and someone made a Wizard tank build with it using Conflag and Life on hit. That is where Blizzard really got it right with loot 2.0. The boring legendaries are the ones that got scaled to 70 but were like level 17 before so they never have really done anything interesting.

how long did it take you to be able to run torment 1? where I guess sets only drop here? im basically starting from not playing since release so my characters are horribly geared, should I just go purge everything that's not equipped on my character besides crafting mats?

I managed to duo/trio it pretty quickly after restarting at 60. My buddies and I (one had geared up at 60 pretty well) ran through Torment 2 until most of the way through act 5, then bumped it down to T1. We had to put in 10ish attempts on the last boss before we sorted out our strategy and stopped getting killed by stupid shit. Running 2x Monk and a Wizard.

Now we're just farming T2 adventure mode. I've had shit luck with pretty much everything except weapon drops. Running a Thunderfury and Won Kim Lau, and it feels pretty silly.

Playing since yesterday evening and having a blast with my wizard. T1 is easy already, but in terms of time/loot its the best so far for me.

What is there to chime in about? All classes are good when specced/geared right. Play what is more fun to you.

Loot 2.0 is working pretty well for me, I've increased pretty steadily at 70. My bottleneck is Death's Breath now, I haven't even found enough to max out my artisans yet, and that's running Torment 1 for most of the Act V story and most of my adventure mode time.

I came with only 3m or so gold, it's really not bad, you just have to be smart with your upgrades. I would suggest getting into the rerolled clan, always best to play with others. You can farm faster and have more chances at loot.

what did you guys do for new weapons as crusaders? is it just pray and hope for a socket every few levels? or is there something I can do with crafting.

there a new FOTM WD build going on? Pet-master isn't carrying weight (and my toughness is shit to make up for it).
