Well to be fair, SoH could drop from a single kill @70 on normal difficulty. Where as Jade Harvester takes 6 pieces of torment only set drops. You can skip a piece with the act 1 Ring but there are people who still haven't gotten one after hundreds of caches. The number of people with enough set pieces to actually do that 1.5b damage is less then a handful.


The rest of the T1 sets need to be buffed. Over 300 paragon levels I haven't found a third piece to any set other than Blackthorns. (2 of Firebird/Zunimassa/Jade Harvester) Finishing a set should be rewarding. If you dump hundreds of hours into the game, why shouldn't you wreck everything? Thats part of most ARPGs, find an interesting way to become as powerful as you can and have fun. Hellgate I had my 600 shot per minute weapon with almost a dozen different on-hit procs that would lag low end systems, Titan Quest I built my druid (storm/nature) with super OP ice shard shotgun building maximum cast speed. Diablo you're stuck to one or two builds per class with super hard to find and specific items with no flexibility.

We need more legendaries that make odd-builds viable. We're still stuck with stacking Main stat/CC/CHD/AS with every class. No slots open to actually tailor gear to builds except the odd slot you can choose an elemental type, or one specific ability.

most players who had soh also couldn't do T6 without 3-4+ pieces of other sets like IK, or Raekor's

i swear everybody who cried NERF for soh never even had one >:/
(it still works really well with frenzy though)



finally got my trifecta royal ring after 1500 bounties

6/38/6 with 420 strength (how fitting), not the best - but i'll take it.. DONE WITH ACT 1

You didn't need raekors or Ik for t6 with SoH. You could do T6 with those sets and the right supporting legendaries. SoH couldn't jump from normal/t1-t6, but I saw a few t3 barbs farming t6.

It doesn't seem they know how to handle procs on channelled abilities. Similar problem to SoH with Wizard's Familiar, but now you also have the off-hand swing resetting ICD. So instead of fixing that, they bandaid it by applying on-hit coefficient to a on-cast proc meaning it will never scale with the number of mobs being attacked.

I can't remember the name of the weapon, but it had a proc that summoned some sort of DoT storm/blizzard/whirlwind thing, and the ICD reset bug makes it stop doing damage. Fulminator does 100% over 6 seconds instead of per second for 6. Rerolling LoK on Soulsmasher causes it to not proc. You can roll the jump off Halcyon's amulet. Skywarden's Law turns off randomly. Vyr's doesn't give you all the runes for Archon. Raekor's 2/4 set are lazy. Many legendary weapons/armor have too many pre-determined stats to ever roll anything people would want to use. Tons of T1 sets are garbage that will only ever end up as forgotten souls. Gems are a joke, two-handeds are a joke, why can't I stop playing this game...


I hope 2.1 has a bunch of fixes in addition to new content.

I could top 1 million dps with some gear, but I feel like the 37% cold damage I get from what I'm using is better than gaining 150k dps using crit gear. I have 870k with 37% cold damage

sheet dps also doesn't mean anything

It's Diablo 3 vanilla collector bonus, just like the yellow wings are RoS collector bonus and the skeleton ones are from Sc2:HotS Deluxe edition.

Maining two INT classes because lazy


Shared the TF and Grandeur, Wiz is only at 83% cold dmg in pic, I can do 103% and 1.2m with his current armory (kredes placeholder+azurewrath) but its toughness dumps to ~5m.

I have a DH at 70 but its derpy, Not sure if I want to work on Monk Barb or Crusader next. Whats the most fun at max level right now? With a semi-decent start/full crafted legendaries.

Got all 6 classes lvl70, paragon 250+ and still no clue how to get decent legendaries or even build something that can clear something harder than T1 without melting in 2 hits or being an invincible punching bag with a baby stick that deal no dmg. TLDR; no clue where to farm and not enough gear to even consider a build. Any help on that would be welcome for any class. Kadala got me nearly everything I have so far, rifts have been useless besides giving occasional forgotten souls and gems etc. I did runs with 100%+ magic find and it didn't really help either.

don't do barb - getting set pieces for each different spec is a pain..

and barbs are seriously weak without set effects (and i mean weak as in weak)


eq spec - cindercoat, devastator+sankis, 3 piece earth set
furious charge - 4 piece raekor, yan pants, tf, soh
call of ancients - 3 piece ik set, tasker and theo

yada yada




@haku: i think that's where a lot of people get frustrated - you go 250 paragon levels without getting a complete cohesive set because kadala doesn't give freaking set items, and there are so many set items in-game that you'd be lucky to find a full set with even mediocre stats

if you want to do rifts but don't want to clear, and have rift key fragments, look into

"Rift It Forward"

basically it's a community where you can join rifts that are JUST before completion, and you ask to join - then you join, get free blood shards and possibly forgotten souls & legendaries from the rift boss

then you open a new rift for them (in payment for free blood shards)

this might be an easy way for you to get some legendaries through kadala, choof
(i'm assuming you have lots of rift keys from act 1 bounties)
