No legendary drops yesterday. Get 3 today in 2 hours. One of those was a 2h great word from the idol vendor.

Hit 48 last night and nearing the end of Act 3.

World Tier 2 feels like "standard" difficulty. Really looking forward to T3 and some more challenge.

Story starts slow in my opinion and then starts getting interesting.

Never knew this. Taking an imprint off a weapon and putting it on another, turns that second weapon into a legendary ( I put the imprint on a yellow )

Had a 52% basic skill attack rate I didn't want to lose. Removed it from the outdated legendary, put it on a yellow weapon, and got a legendary in return.

That’s a nice drop.  Those ones that add skills for using a skill just delete mobs.

I made a huge mistake by not reading my werebear guide correctly.  I’m supposed to be using a single hander and a totem.  I’ve been using a two hander.

You lose it if it’s an imprint and not from the codex of aspects. You can only extract it once.

You can reuse your codex on items as long as you have the mats and money.

So go to wowhead or icy veins and figure out which dungeon has the aspect and farm it from completing the dungeon and you have it forever.  Unless you’re wanting to only use it once.

 I made a similar mistake by having a 2hb as my whirlwind weapon. It needs to be a slashing weapon. Oops!

My next character will be my main char. It will be a druid. I found a guide for it and it lets you be a werewolf full time. You need 3 specific items for the build to work though.

Is anyone in this thread the owner of the Arfcom clan? I'm on PS5 and have joined, but it might be nice to list the consoles/PCs and each member.

I am destroying everything with my Wearbear/Pulverize Druid build.

Yeah, the other druid builds have me curious.  I’ll probably respec at some point just to play around with the others and see which one I like the most.

The werebear is fun, pulverize build is like artillery going off.  You basically charge and pulverize and then you’re suddenly standing in gold, items and health orbs.

Will have to look into that for a leveling build.



Pro tip: Not sure if the game bugged out, but I just got a challenge completed for completing a dungeon in under 2 minutes. What I did, right before the boss of an instance, I just ported out to sell and ported back in. Killed the boss and it popped for me.

52 Druid. First build was a storm built that had awesome damage output, but he was a bit too squishy. Latest is the werebear/pulverize build and it straight up wrecks everything. Add in bulwurks and death is a very rare occurrence with Elites or Bosses.

Found every Altar of Lilith. Now I can finally play the game

Also hit 50. Leaving my shred druid build in the dust and going to the popular pulverize build. The shred build was ok, but killing everything with poison (DOT's) isn't as fun as big instant hits. The wolf companions were also getting killed way too often with the tougher enemies.

Finally got the pulverize build together after clearing some dungeons for the aspects.

Boy was it slow getting it started without all the proper aspects

Fun seeing everything in front of be get demolished, but now I'm bored already because of how simple it is compared to the shred build. Oh well, gonna stick with it and get as far as possible until the first season starts. Here's to hoping whatever special armor set and abilities the first season brings makes a more fun build to be the meta.

Act 2 statues and main quests completed. Act 3 statues are all done, but one. It's locked behind the main campaign, I guess. Will do act 3 campaign and act 4 statues tomorrow. Going to do all the side quests after I beat the game. Hit level 50 and doing paragon now. Some nice perks in there.

Just finished the campaign last night after bee-lining it, lvl. 40 now using an  arc lash sorcerer build.

Went into the game blind, wasn't planning on picking it up for some time but changed my mind and pulled the trigger Friday evening.

Looking forward to all the side stuff, did a little during the more slogfest parts of the campaign and enjoyed it.

Completed Act 3 and started Act 4.  Getting the mount is an absolute quality of life improvement.

Has anyone found a guide for when/where the Gathering Legions events happen?  One kicked off this morning but seemed to be gated (maybe based on act completion, I don't know) behind the Road to Caldeum.  Basically I could ride up to the gates but couldn't open the gates.  The map is also acting screwy in that area.  I can discover more map but the moment I go back to a waypoint the map goes back to being obscured to me.

My only complaints with the game so far:

Music is lacking. Up until act 3 it was more like sounds effects than music.

Finish a long dungeon. Well, fuck you. We'll disable the exit dungeon function and you're walking back out.

Armor /weapon drops. Items, no matter the quality are 10 levels or more lower than your character.

That's a major issue but only a problem for new characters before level 50 and WT3.

Once I hit level 50 and unlocked WT3, loot at or near my level became the norm.

For alts it's not an issue because you can keep your gear somewhat current by upgrading at the blacksmith and always buying vendor gear, since your gold and materials carry over.

I've always been able to either fast travel back the to beginning of the dungeon or hit the down D pad to go back to town. Does that change in late game?

How do you unlock WT3?  I'm 50, almost 51 and stuff is still dropping at the 40 level.

EDIT: NM found it. Complete the Cathedral of Light dungeon in Kyovashad, on WT2.

I passed that fortress on. Had no issues with the next one.

Made it to act 4 and all but 3 statues done.

Important tip to all: save all your gems. Put them in your stash. Don't worry about upgrading the weaker gems if you don't need to, just save them.

Right now the gems are capped at Royal quality (level 60). However, there are confirmed to be 3 additional tiers of gems in the game that are currently locked. So once they're unlocked you'll need the gems to upgrade to the final tiers.

Assuming the upgrade paths stay the same (3 of the lesser gems = upgrade), you'll essentially need 243 Rubies, or 81 Flawless Rubies, or 27 Royal Rubies, in order to make just 1 of the highest tier gems.

Level 52, last part of act 5, all but one stronghold done. All but 5 statues done ( 3 are blocked off by quest progression in the swamp, last 2 in Caldeum )

Paragon is helping . Up to 60% physical bonus damage. Will have to try that last stronghold again. Not even doing events anymore for idols. Everything I buy with them is still 10 levels under me and useless.

I hate poison based enemies.  I'm just going to explode in a puddle of poison goo so you can't hit me without damaging yourself.

ETA:  As someone mentioned on page 2, I kept it at WT1 until the end of Act 4 and increased it to WT2 for Act 5.

I'm finding that my gear is so comparatively bad, that I've just started farming the event outside of Kyvoshad for obols instead of completing the Act.  I've got some nice gear now though and should be ready to take on the rest of the campaign.

I'm starting again with Rogue.  Very different play style means I'll probably die again soon

But I like the character.  More aggressive than sorc.  "Best defense is strong offense" sort of character.
