Europe: First player to get the "Race to the top" - first level 70 - achievement was "Askeprins" - took 2hrs 7 mins.

I started the first minute and was level 27 at the time

Its a good thing they waited a few days to release ladder so they could 'smooth things out' and not have any 'game breaking bugs'

Seems to have worked well for them

Cant wait for the rest of bugs to pop up

They are exploiting t6 quests where you don't have to kill anything for mad XP, it has been in the game since release, but for some reason they ignored it. One of them is Miner's Gold, can't remember the others.

Wasn't miner's gold fixed? To my kniwledge the only one similar to that which still works is Miser's. I huess jar of souls still works, just start event, die, rez after a min and smash jar quick for reward.

Yeah they had a post on Diablo fans about it.

Create a new game and check the map for the following bounties:

Miser's Will (Act V - very rare) - Westmarch Commons - could take a while to find the Miser's Hovel
Miner's Gold (Act II - common) - Howling Plateau - need to be alive to get the experience when the event ends. Either keep moving and avoiding enemies, or respawn right before it ends. If you can, open the resplendent chest to get some loot so that you are tankier in future runs.
Jar of Souls and The Matriarch's Bones (Act I - somewhat common) - Cemetery of the Forsaken - the Matriarch's Bones can be completed without killing the Ghost. Just ignore him and click for the crypt to end the quest.
This method is even better in a party (since there are more targets for enemies, less chance of dying), with each player creating their own game and inviting others once the quests are found. It also makes it more likely for the party to find the Miser's Will event, which grants more experience than the others.

Mind that this method has a few cons:

It is somewhat boring, as you aren't really fighting, just avoiding enemies and collecting the bounty reward.
You will die often, so it's not suitable for Hardcore (unlike the tips from the previous video).
You will get most of the experience from Miner's Gold, and there's a catch with that event - if you're dead when it ends, you get no experience (unlike the other 3 events which require you to "activate" something to get the reward).
You will barely collect any materials (pre-level-60), almost no gold (for lvl 70 enchants), and less Rift Keystones and Blood Shards than through normal leveling.
Note that in the VOD previously acquired Gold was used to buy gear from vendors (for improved Toughness), which is needed to survive and get the experience in the Miner's Gold event. That would result in even less gold once the player reaches level 70.
Remaking games over and over again (to check for the events) could be problematic for players who have disconnect issues, or if Blizzard servers are overwhelmed by too many users.
That's only a couple of them I am sure there are others that are working just as well. The so called "quest" system has been prone to leveling exploit after leveling exploit since the game was released. I mean hell there is one quest that people have used for Hardcore leveling for ages since you run into zero mobs and can crank the shit to t6 and plow. If you happen to have other people making the games for you allowing simply join and do the turn in it's even easier.



Between that and the bots there is zero reason to try and compete for leveling up the fastest. Blizzard probably at least understands that much which is why seasons ladder isn't based on XP.

I haven't played in awhile. What's a good build for a low-gear WD? Only items of note are Mask of Jeram (87%), RRoG, Rhen'Ho Flayer, and Uhkapian Serpent. I also have 3 pieces of Jade Harvester and one of Zunimasa. I like pet builds the best!

Nothing hasn't really changed. Pet doctor is your best bet. With that gear you can do T4 easily with no issues.

How in the hell they hit 70 that quickly? I know some streamers are using the bounties to quickly powerlevel up but in 90 minutes has to be a glitch/exploit.

Was thinking about starting up on the season, but leveling is so fast it's almost pointless. Plus, my main character is only paragon 88. Well all my characters I guess.

I've actually been having fun leveling again, playing hc monk. Got to 31 tonight but have to get off for now but tomorrow I'm going to be playing all day. I might just continue to run a few bounties and then rift my way to max level and hopefully maybe have capped bloodshards so I can not get any orange items from Kadala at 70 lmao. CAN'T WAIT.

WTB innas. mmm

Meh, nerfing Boon of the Hoarder to not drop gold in GRifts is pretty lame. Oh well, guess I'll just socket a real gem when I do GRifts.

If anyone wants to play regular (I'm honestly too lazy for seasons I think, though I may level a character sometime) hit me up. It would be nice to have some people to do Rifts/Greater Rifts with.

Feel free to friend me, Brikker#1337 for Bnet Tag.

WD and can handle T4 (albeit slower than I'd like).

Oh yea, made a Hellfire Amulet too, for my WD. Think I got one of the worst possible rolls. Shitty stats and Blood Ritual for a passive (why does that passive even exist?). Don't think I'll be repeating the process since the Diablo boss on T6 is a pain in the ass.
