No clue what to play. Maybe champion something to lab farm to start.

Move into slayer ts?

yeah, I don't know either. thinking trickster ED maybe, or slayer cyclone like 95% of the rest of the players

Maybe vaal DS with the new aoe. Cleave and lacerate look good

Also only going to play until like the 28th when my Valve Index comes in.

[kmaldona]

Jugg EQ?
Jugg ice crash?
Slayer cyclone for the cull?

[Siddyy]

Gonna start with a 2h Cyclone Jugg build on HC to build up currency. Not sure what would come after that but pretty damn pumped for Cyclone itself. With the new support gem, the AOE range should be insane.

[Shaneomac0]

Going to probably start with Incinerate Chieftain and see how it goes from there, I prefer not to play what almost the entire league is playing.

[Weezy32]

Gonna do Essence Drain build ..playing SC if anyone wnana play w me let me know.


Havent played since Betrayal did arc trap and was farming uber elder.

[-Butternuts]

I havent thought about this much, so might just have to go soulrend again coz its op, and probably still good even with the nerfs. But i do like melee so ill have a look.
Some rares are gonna be pretty tanky with the double life buff, especially some in high lvl incursions and beasts, and probably in the legion xpac mobs

crit slayer blade flurry will prob be decent, there are 5 ascendancy nodes i want tho

im just gonna go soulrend, you can shield charge with wands now so good qol there and the dmg inc wands will give should counter a lot of nerfs, the only real nerf is the 2s for each ghost shroud now

[Iczer]

Haven't paid attention to patch notes at all, I just know melee is back. Need to find a fun melee build now.

[hxa]

Which Cyclone build, brahs? Only played Ngamahu's back in the day and don't want to play it again. Pure phys? Anything better?

[-Butternuts]

crit pure phys slayer cyclone should be good

[FearThisjake]

Going ED trickster because I know what it can do. I wanted to go melee, but I'll let the pros figure out the meta builds.

Plus, I just like the way ED/contagion plays

HC of course

Doing this same thing, but not because I know how to play, but because it has the best guide for someone that hasn't played in a while.

Whoever this ziz guy is, he seems to think it will be the strongest build, but his guide really walks me through what to do.

it will be strong but can feel clunky, you have to 2 step kill packs, which can feel bad for some...but it is strong

Going to download this on PS4. Spent a lot of time on Diablo 1, 2,3, Baldur's Gate, etc. Is it worth watching some tips videos, or just jumping in?

Definitely watch some videos and also make sure to find a guide.

Watch this guy's videos. I played this back when it came out, then stopped for a couple of years. His videos helped me when i started playing again, and they're really well made. The game can be overwhelming for someone new, but it is one of the best games ever made. Have like 3k hours played.

[MiamiLife305]

I'm gonna mess around and start this game again

Should I start a new character in Legion League? I'm not really sure what the differences are between leagues?

[FearThisjake]

ayy lmao

[DemiBrah]

September gonna be wild af

[kmaldona]

And what is September? We do not know anything of the new league yet.

Might be interesting.

Welp, Im level 97.5 on my cycloner in LHC

Just been running tier 16 volcanos with double beyond, which sucks to roll sometimes. I just chaos spam maps until I get it, a few times its cost me like 70c just to get it on one map. Also running 4 scarabs; breach, beast, divination card and cartographers, sometimes I go gilded but most of the time its just been polished scarabs. Also 3 sextants all for extra mobs. It's quite fun to be honest. Spending anywhere from 100-220c rolling a batch of 3 maps and Im still making money. I got enough cards yesterday for nearly 3 kaoms hearts and almost a set for a corrupted kaoms. The corrupted cards are much more rare, like only 1 drops for every 8 or so regular kaoms heart card

[EoR]

They really hit it out the park with this league. It wouldn't surprise me if they have/had the most players for a league. Made a few builds since ED/Cyclone got a lil boring. I usually get bored anyway @ around 92-85. Frost blades is really good atm.

The league is doing alright, but not doing as well as a few past leagues. Still probably like top 3-4 of all leagues for player retention

The LHC economy is starting to slow down a bit. It's hard to buy stuff when its not peak hours, which is when I'm at work. By the time I get home and online, its tough to buy stuff.

I’ve had to rework my build 4 times this league because I’m trying to make a srs spectre hybrid with all uniques outside of a Stygian lmao. It’s crazy looking but I’m running t16 easy with very little defense besides ToH and purity . Double six links with a mortis + femur of saints for spectre interaction. I got 7 offensive jewels slotted while aurabot my minions so endgame will be 650% increased minion damage while having every damage slot notched + anger, EE. Should be fun
