does this game have some kind of problem with on death mechanics? I died 2x times now to the exact same red explosion on death mechanic. that stupid helltide worm popped out and shat out some monster, they died and with them they exploded killing my character. I dont quite understand how defense/ehp works in this game. my hp doesnt move a single pixel at t12 not even when I intentional try to get hit but then they add these explosions and some weird exponential boss scaling mechanics, for what purpose?

We didn't even reach page 10... But at least we're getting there. Good work OP.

>>
>>2476314
-its good to have a source of fortified and/or barrier
-stacking resists is always good
-endurant faith gloves or charm so you survive the one shot and can see what was killing you so you can avoid it in future.
-moving is always good, plenty of shit should be trying to kill you in higher torments, so moving out of the aoes should be necessary.

What's an Infernal Horde and why are people in this thread so afraid of it? I haven't unlocked Warplans yet, I just finished VoH.

timesink endgame activity where you pick boons every 1 minute round. can be 6 or 10 rounds. you get get absolutely fucked by rng and waste 12 minutes of your life. it's also boring gay and retarded
>>
It's impressed how I liked all three mercenaries from Diablo III but I don't like a single one from Diablo IV (Subo is ok I guess but not very interesting.)
>>
>>2476906
its just kind of lame, you'll see
>>
>>2476906
Infernal Horde used to be the way to get XP relatively quick, but now it's become a waste of time where you get better XP elsewhere like Undercity orbs. The warplan tree for Infernal Horde was poorly planned.

I need to touch on the topic of inventory and its overall management.

Having recently gone back to D3, to play around out of curiosity I got a harsh reminder how better organization for it was in that game. You had small squares that each type of item could take up from 1 (amulets, rings etc.) to 2 (other gear) slots.
That alone helps with keeping stuff organized. As opposed to D4 where for some reason they decided everything is the same giant ass tile size. How the fuck does that make logical sense?
>inb4 muh consoles
D3 was released on consoles and the tiling works well with a controller. Hell, it's probably the main reason why they went from multi slot D1 and D2 to what we had in D3. And if consoles had to be included that made sense. D4 going full retard on the system doesn't however. Even stash is dumbed down to the point where we have limited icons to differentiate the tabs with. Tabs themselves are in smaller number than the amount of loot you might want to keep (code limitations I know, but it shouldn't have been the case to begin with here)

And a sidenote how terrible the runes problem was solved
>Guys! There were runes you didn't really use so we reduced the 'clutter' and now all of them can fit in your tab
Yeah, if only there was yet another tab for the gems since the tiles/slots are still to big for those....

Anyway, thank you for tuning in for my blog, I needed to vent.

Call me Mephistob Lord of Hatred because boy do I fucking hate this season.

Blizzard definitely just glances at the playerbase and sees the same cucks that infest WoW due to all the skins and absolutely not giving a fuck about releasing broken products because cucks will be cucks and just take it up the ass
>>
>>2477049
I'm surprised people think the season that releases with the expansion is anything but good. You played for the story and should have ended there. Whether you were disappointed or not is fair game.
>>
why did they get rid of alchemy?
>>
>>2477247
i think they said that the vast majority of players just used them for XP gain and they just made the monsters give more xp instead
>>
burning the tree of whispers was such horseshit. it was all gucci when Elias was put there but when Lorath goes there suddenly its too far and we need to burn it down
>>
>>2477484
Yes?
Elias was a dick, a traitor and the one who brought Lillith back
Lorath was a good friend who helped prevent/mitigate 2 apocalypses
>>
Easiest greater lair boss for a dogshit rogue to fight blind?
>>
>>2478304
Probably Andariel but whether a boss is easy or hard very much comes down to if you are melee or ranged.

I'm Dance of Knives so ranged unless I switch to grenades.

Of all the endgame minigame content modes it is the most lackluster. Fun keys for other content modifies them so that something cool happens, good or bad. Keys for IH makes it take even fucking longer.
Honestly it should play like ARPG Killing Floor than whatever the fuck it is now.
>>
So i heard they added a few secrets, like secret pit bosses and murlok pet. Anyone got any info on that?
also fuck the 666 cows grind

15 lair keys later and I couldn't get a unique with 2 good stats. across 3 uniques in my build. fml

Does anyone else have performance issues with this game despite having solid specs?
I get these framedrops and random hiccups sometimes and if I take too many screenshots then the game becomes unplayable and I have to restart it.
>>
>>2479774
Yeah mate. I was getting crazy crashes last week when I installed. I set the max frame rate to 60
>>
>>2479808

first thing I thought of when I saw her, tb h
>>
>>2479490
the pit: the first floor when you say "something is following me", look around for a scrap of paper and click on it. do this for lvls 1, 6, 11, 16, etc until 101. then spam pit 101 until choron spawns in as the pit boss and you kill him. not sure if this would work if you have "killing the butcher ends the pit level" tho
murlok pet: get lucky fishing. i 100%ed the fishing collection, including all purple fish, and i have not caught the murlock pet.
cow level: yeah it's a grind, but it's fun to moo at your friends and toss them a stamina potion and it's fun to deny randos a moo when they rudely demand it at world boss
>>
>>2479944
cool, thanks anon. Yeah i saw that something is fllowing me line a few times but had no idea what the hell it was, thought it was some random warlock quirk

I’ve Missed the free paladin trial and I got diablo from the humble bundle, I know that without dlc alot of the content is missing but is the base game good enough to try it out and buy the dlc later if I like it?
>>

Why did the tree just let it happen didn't even put up a fight? I thought it was supposed to be some magical super being? If it could have been destroyed all along by anyone walking by with a lantern how did it survive all this time?

Tyrael specifically mentions no normal fire can burn the tree, and he gives you the (buffed) torch to do it.
>>
>>2480256
That's just the excuse they made up at the last second. Makes no damn sense not to have the tree be a boss fight at least.
>>
>>2476998
I think with d4 they want to give you one extra tab for each expansion you buy. I'm not sure they have thought about it much beyond that.
In d2 the stash was intentionally limited, you were not mean to hoard, it was one of the resources to manage. In the xpac it got expanded, people liked to hoard items. In current form in d2r and mods they have lot of tabs and special tabs for runes.
I don't really have a point other than what has happened with these type of games is that there tends to be more stash over time but never enough people always complain.

Decent enough if you want to play through 2 campaigns for the story but it won't really be reflective of proper endgame content.

I figured I'd go through this season on normal before trying hardcore since I normally play hardcore in arpgs but I am not going to do it for D4 because this game is way, way more unfair bullshit than any other arpg I've played, and that's saying something since I've taken every class in D2 through hardcore Hell and there's some real bullshit in D2R that doesn't scratch what D4 pulls.

Am I missing out if I never play the base campaign. Bought the game last week, just playing a seasonal char through the new dlc. Should I bother next season with the base campaign. I’m lvl 60 rn
>>
>>2483388
>Should I bother next season with the base campaign
Do you care about the story you've seen so far? If so, maybe.
I'd wait until next season regardless unless you really want to push the endgame ASAP. My first character did base game + VoH seasonally and the seasonal gimmicks were a fun distraction while going through the campaigns.
