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.
>It's a war plan with 2 infernal hordes
>>2476332skipskipskipSKIIP
Now THAT is what I call a war plan!
>>2476336That is after the skips, sis.
Between Necros and Warlocks, which is more fun to play and which performs better endgame?
>>2476439Lock shits for trillions of dmg and Necro is in a cuck shed
>come back after a few seasons>"hmmm lets try the old reliable rogue build">buy every trap>get preparation>get flurry>look for legendary affixes>mfwuhhh... bros? where did my fucking legendary affixes go? my traps becoming grenades? my my trap cooldowns? my ult? they didnt just nerf this they thanos snapped it out of existence. am i missing something...?
>>2476325back to /sp/ peruANO
>>2476544Dude the game is different now, shit got overhauled
>>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.
>>2476686No, I will inhabit both /sp/. You couldn't get rid of me during beta phase and Scosglen memes and you ain't getting rid of me meow.
guess i'm doing the transfigure spam on 2handed ancestral maces nowlets see if I get one in 400 mats
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.
>>2476342kino
>>2476906timesink 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.)
>>2476906its just kind of lame, you'll see
>>2476906Infernal 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.
>>2476300I 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 consolesD3 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 tabYeah, 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.
>>2476998t. didn't play diablo 2
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
>>2477049I'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?
>>2477247i 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
>>2477484Yes?Elias was a dick, a traitor and the one who brought Lillith backLorath was a good friend who helped prevent/mitigate 2 apocalypses
Easiest greater lair boss for a dogshit rogue to fight blind?
>>2478304Probably Andariel but whether a boss is easy or hard very much comes down to if you are melee or ranged.
>>2478329I'm Dance of Knives so ranged unless I switch to grenades.
>>2478329Nm I pooped on Andy in 5 seconds.
>>2478384Yeah she's easy, I swear she has Varshan levels of health
why does Lilith have dick sucking lips?
>>2478773villains can have supermodel bimbo faces and big tits, hags and goblinas for the player though.
>>2476906Of 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.
>>2479774Yeah mate. I was getting crazy crashes last week when I installed. I set the max frame rate to 60
>>2479808- and that did indeed fix it. Sorry mate, not sure what happened there, I might be getting retarded in my old age.
>>2478773first thing I thought of when I saw her, tb h
>>2479490the 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
>>2479944cool, 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?
>>2477484Why 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?
>>2480187>erhm, uh, well you see
are we D3 now?
>>2480187>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.
>>2480256That'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.
>>2476998I 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.
original d2 stash was this small
>>2480199shits lame to hit this thoughyou have to use the frost nova rune and the freezing damage talisman and time it
Man this season is so bad, exploits and bugs left and right. Just facerolling p150 is fucking boring
I have like 60 Uniques and the majority of them are worthless for me. What's my best option to do with them regarding the Cube?
>>2480686>intentionally uses bugs and exploits>wow this game so easy!retard lol
>>2480168Decent enough if you want to play through 2 campaigns for the story but it won't really be reflective of proper endgame content.
>>2480893>cheats game>wonder why it's easy and boring
Do I bother rolling it?
Dumb question but how do I do Infernal Hordes?
>>2481144That's the best part - you don't!
>Butcher spawns in my pit>Makes zero sound>Does a frame 1 charge>Instakills me before I can even reactGreat game, Blizzbabs
almost finished
anon why are you playing this pozzed deislop game
>>2481774How did you do it.
>>2481961grinded 6 round hordes with the chaos portal talent nodes
>>2481998>6 roundFUCK ME.
anyone need a selig or tyraelsdropped a 4 ga selig so dont need these anymore
rogue bros: glynn's anvil aspect is great for chest slot. get that resolve node in concealment, GA your resolve stack temper and masterwork crit it, and walk around with 88% damage reduction
>>2482031Yeah me
>>2481528I 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.
>>2482069sent (:
We really need more storage space.
cant do warlock anymore why is every spell the same color
>War plan levels are not shared between characters
>>2482317it’s insane how limited the storage space is. that + the obol limit is just astounding to me.
Why is this general so fucking dead? Is this not really a popular game?
>>2482945i think people just burn out after the first few weeks of season start
>>2482945some games just dont do well on 4chan as far as generalslot of popular games dont even have generals, like counterstrike or valorant
>>2482945First time here?
kek the fanta portal sucks
feels like hordes got "buffed" monster levels seem higher. way to make the worst event in the game even worse blizz
>>2482473Apoc spamming is pure cancer, can't fucking see shit
>>2483031wish there was a warlock build that doesn't go into meta and that isn't apoc
>>2483110There's minion build but it's boring as fuck
did they fix sorc after the accidental nerf? finna make one tomorrow
>>2480549based
>>2481774i will never get there. i'll do every other meme activity muh cows muh fish muh portals etc but never get that to 7
got btfo by mephisto in phase 2 (two)
do you guys have any tips? yes i have endurant faith charm. i'm playing dread claws.. should i switch?
>>2482945It's because>it's /vm/ not /vg/>season boom is fading>it's a blizzard game and blizzard games get shit on by default on 4chan by people trying too hard to fit in>4chan is full of poe players who also shit on diablo by defaultBeing on a lower traffic board is for the better
i dont understand why this thread is not /vg/
>>2483231based autist. we've been over this countless times.
i've never been in this thread until today so i dont know faggot
>>2483234thread is not fast enough, it would just get bumped into oblivion by the 100 different gachas generals
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 campaignDo 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.
