I’m doing much better with Druid than sorcerer in end game.  A pulverizer druid I’m doing a shit ton of damage with my aspects/gear choices in T3 right now.

It really seems unnecessary to “delete” accounts at all. Data storage is dirt cheap and that’s IF they are actually deleting the account to begin with. Commonly a deletion just equates to setting an “Active” flag from 1 to 0 in their database but retaining all the data because it’s better to retain it and not use it…

That’s my biggest issue with the patch. They understood just how powerful vulnerability and the like were as multipliers, but all they’ve done is take a nerf bat to the coefficients. Everyone is generally worse for it, but importantly, nothing is better as a consequence. The nerf didn’t make any alternative build any…

Cool cool cool, thanks for confirming no one in charge has any idea what the fuck they’re talking about or how to do their jobs effectively. We all were pretty sure but it, but this pretty well confirmed it with their fucking nonsense prattle.

“However, the team is presently concerned that player choice in builds is dying in favor of go-to metas, meaning that if you don’t emphasize cooldown reduction, or optimize builds to send foes into Vulnerable status, you’re operating at a disadvantage”

The dev comments in the patch make it seem like they don’t even know how their own game works. The nerfs to crit and vulnerable damage just make those stats even more necessary on gear, not less. Now you need it on more pieces and higher rolls where you get it.

is this a paid advert? It misses the actual mark by miles.  so completely misleading compared to the actual exp and end game grind nerfs.

Does anyone on staff play Diablo 4? Two days ago you had an article that said you could only put on ancestral gear at level 100, but they were lowering it to 80 (you can get it around level 60, even pre-patch). And now this? They made they grind MUCH more tedious. Like, embarrassingly so. People are boycotting Season…

Uh, this feels like a weird article. Renown might be much better, but they’ve also nerfed Vulnerable and Crit damage, reduced cooldown and damage reduction, and even reduced the amount of experience you get from killing monsters at higher levels than you, as well as the experience boost from partying up with people.…

This is the exact opposite take from what I’ve read every single player complaining about. It seems this patch is actually designed to DRASTICALLY slow down the game. If you slow down the game, then you are increasing the grind. 

“When us old folks were playing Diablo II we could go for days, weeks or even months before seeing a “unique” (which roughly equate to Legendries in D3/D4). It was a massive special event to even get one.”

Article really unclear and doesn’t get across the context.

The wording of this article is mildly deceptive and/or inaccurate. As soon as I was level 50 in World Tier III I was equipped in Sacred gear head-to-toe and I unlocked Tier IV at like level 68 iirc and was wearing ancestral gear.

If Frost, Fire and Lightning are "the dark arts", what does that make Blood, Bone, and... Darkness ????

A few days ago i commented on some guide article about how this website sure has changed and someone replied “elaborate”. And well... now this happened.

I’ve been around these parts on and off since 2009, feels like the last OG is leaving the building. Not that we had a great rapport or anything, but you were a stalwart of the site. Good luck in your future pursuits. 

I mean let’s all be serious, they did such a shit job it would have been cheaper to not do it at all. I’ve yet to see anyone call their strategy anything other than terrible. Even this site agrees it was bad. If you’re going to do your job, maybe don’t suck at it. 

Vaan should be at the bottom, Terra should be higher.

Final Fantasy X’s himbo jock with daddy issues gets a bad rap because people take the game’s iconic laugh scene out of context and say he whines too much.

Worth it for getting rid of kotick.
