Meh. I played a fuckton of D3 post Reaper. It was fun. Still is. Wouldn’t touch it with a real money AH. Doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy both games. I love a 45 day dry aged ribeye, but sometimes I want a greasy burger.
I’m trying to get a buddy into this. Best analogy I could think of was D3 is watching the movie, and PoE is reading the book and all it’s appendicies.

I think most boss rewards are fine. There's a few outliers that clearly have a shitty drop table for whatever reason (Mountain Ledge?), but that's certainly not the rule. I mean if you build a hyper map/delve focused character and find it more profitable to skip bosses, that's a personal choice.

Unless they are adding tiers of damage rolls exclusively to 2handers, it's not gonna happen. I've never even seen a 2h in a league get crafted to be better than starforge/atziris, hell most of the time I can't even find one with more dps than a kaom's axe.

Standing still tends to be deadlier.
Protector or Warchief? The latter is so much better.

Yeah, but is Cyclone really that much better?
Shame Mjolner is such a terrible CoC weapon. I really want to do an Arc/Mlojner CoC/Glacial Cascade Assassin.

I think so, yeah. It takes a bit to get the hang of it, but when you do it's very versatile and easy to dodge things with provided your movement speed is decent. Like it's definitely the safest skill I've used to kill Hydra boss, could probably do that fight with CI+EB on a cyclone character.

Eh, for just supporting your own damage it doesn't matter too much. Warchief tends to clear out adds a lot better, and 18% more damage is roughly equal to 20% more attack speed, depending on the character. But Facebreaker Warchief is an extremely solid build for cheap.

Good, torture chamber was aids to clear
Clear speed? Since you'll be blowing through most things anyways, cyclone keeps you moving. Could always swap out to BF if you want more damage for bosses.

I was making the assumption that you'd clear with shield charge and cospri's malice. If you're going to clear with your CoC trigger, then yeah, stick with cyclone definitely.
I wonder if there's any merit to charged dash as a CoC trigger.

It is because that announcement showed those of us who thought that D3 was an aberration and that Blizzard would go back to the drawing board to make D4 a deep and rewarding experience got a flat bed of cold water dumped on us for being so naïve. Blizzard starting with StarCraft 2 and the split to 3 games shifted the company to one that made dumbed down games to hit earning goals and not because they loved games anymore.
