diablo 4 reviews are dropping

[Lexira]

I don't even know how many acts there are. Still blind crew. Level 40 atm and in dry steppes act 2 I think. Really staying away from youtube vids

I think there are six acts, also not google/yt vids crew.

[ispy]

wudijo still no-lifing at 89 now, and looks to be doing fine after the nerf. i think this is the build he's running: https://maxroll.gg/d4/build-guides/d...ap-rogue-guide

unofficial, manually updated ladder site: https://www.d4race.com/ first lvl 100 was achieved by a sc barb. there might be others, who don't stream.

[ohiostate124]

Would laugh if Blizzard rolled back all these guys exploiting for the race to 100 but I doubt they will.

[R3L3NTL3SS]

Game randomly goes from running 180 FPS to just ****ting itself at 2-30 and stuttering it's ass off for zero reason at all. It's 100% not my computer.

[Ayz33]

Skipped the early game cinematics because i was rushing, but i just finished act 6 and HOLY **** they are insane. Highly recommend not skipping the real scenes. Also, the boss fights are very fun

[BraneyGumble]

Yeah I still have no idea why there's no map overlay.

Does anyone have experience with summoning necros? Played rogue/necro/sorc up to Kyovashad, sticking with sorc first just like in beta, but damn I like necros.

[ohiostate124]

Summon necros sound like they are complete chit right now in their current state.

[Duckliver]

I mean I don’t see how summon necros can ever suck and will play one once again simply because I know I’ll find a way to swarm

[BraneyGumble]

Ok summ necro doesn't look too good right now.

[JustiNtense]

Lol I’m already getting bored of the game. I’m only lvl 31 though so I’ll keep pushing through.

I also quit D3 a month after playing it as well… Uhh I hope this isn’t going to be the same for me.

This is coming from someone that still plays Diablo 2 to this day 20 years later.

[ohiostate124]

If I’m being completely honest, I’m not feeling that motivated to continue the Barb right now. I want to finish the story but I might pause until they settle down with these balance patches. Thought about rolling a new class but everything I’m interested in is in a bad state too.

what keeps you going back to 2?

[Nicklol]

play it for yourself. I'm already losing sleep playing it. Amazing game.

The one thing I realized yesterday after killing andariel is..
How are you supposed to farm them for loot if they are only a campaign quest??

I hope in nightmare etc, they have a way so you can kill them for loot over and over like in d2

and another complaint is that you get upgrades almost too often and keep having to swap off your codex / aspect powers which as you level, get harder to have the materials for. Then you have to salvage junk legos just to be able to imprint your codexes again.

I hope that once uniques/sets start dropping.. I can actually KEEP it and not have to micromanage the codexes so often and choose between stats or codex abilities

Yeah it might not be for you considering 4 is the same engine as 3. Same enemy abilities mostly and stuff

why not?
what spec and level are you?

I am kind of stubborn cuz once I find a good spec that seems legit.. I dont wanna switch and ruin my rhythm.. I am just playing whats fun and not overthinking it
I've played lunging and ww with ancients ultimate the whole time but I still wanna try kick, leap, the chains that pull people in, bleed builds and of course upheaval like I did in beta. Frenzy and double swing dual wield build doesnt appeal to me.
I'll wait till I complete the game on tier 2 before I try diff classes.

[R3L3NTL3SS]

Did sorcs get nerfed somewhere along the way? Don't know, but my cold sorc doesn't feel as strong as I remember her being in the beta.

[Nicklol]

I think sorc and necro overall got nerfed. Some were switching to firewall

while druids were supposed to be buffed

[TheChadofGaming]

whats better for sorc leveling, chain lightning or fire wall?

[Firefightn24]

whats better for sorc leveling, chain lightning or fire wall?

Honestly haven't messed with firewall, but I was running arc lash and chain lightning. With frost nova and ice armor for defense. Teleport for mobility. Just hit 50 now... and that's with me working the last two days and doing family stuff. Some group play but mostly solo.

Lvl 35. Just finished act 2. I was running upheavel but switched to WW. Tried a few other builds but I don’t really like them. Zero luck with WW legendary drops but I’m gonna stick with it. Overall, I just think the Barb is poorly designed as it is right now. Fury generation is in a terrible state and pretty much every build has to rely on shouts just to help with that but then they just nerfed them. The class just feels bad imo.

[adamsz]

lvl 35, just killed Andy and got a few quests left in A4

dunno how I feel about the game yet

campaign/quests are boring af. Basically feel like bounties from D3 which was the worst content in that game.

But I do know the campaign is just the stepping stone to actually playing the end game which is the real game so I need to be patient.

But yeah so far it's not blowing me away or anything

[nn586]

the part of the game so far that made me go holy chit *spoilers*

Spoiler!

With the sound it played too fuuuaaa


Also the Asterboy cerebus guy cutscene before fighting him was sick asf

[Lexira]

lol @ getting older - young me would have been lvl at least 75.... here I am not knowing if i can hit lvl 50 by end of week or not.

I am sure there will be some hack that will change the camera's POV to become like that.

[rocketfish]

something that I would **** is like 1-2 extra steps of zoom out from where its at right now, specially when running downward it gets real close to the hud using keyboard/mouse. i'm sure controller brahs have no issues there

[OneLegSquats]

not reading 5 pages, is it good?

[Lexira]

not reading 5 pages, is it good?

Yes, and there is huge potential.

[nn586]

sometimes the slow burn is better than blowing your load right away

im in the same boat but it's enjoyable playing when I can and going slow

[LurkoLantern]

I'm having the time of my life with my Necro build. You can invest skill points in making your summoned skellies more powerful and with longer health. After a while you get more of them. I'm at level 19 and have 8 skeletons running aound on the screen with me.
These things are immensely useful for boss fights as they'll keep the big boss distracted, allowing me to do my blood attacks from a distance.

When my gf comes over again tomorrow, we'll have to go back to our Barbarian & Sorceress combo playthrough. I can say that Barbarian isn't even 1/10th as fun to play as a Necro

[rocketfish]

lvl 35 rogue now and enjoying the story/game playing in world tier 2.


i tried following the twisted blade build but i found adding a bow attack to the mix with it more fun to use (rapid fire)

so twisted blade attack twice dash through the enemies in a line, twisted blades return killing most of the mobs, while i'm distanced from them cause of the dash i can rapid fire bow attack to finish off whichever are left




is there a way* to get more skills bound to your keyboard or are we stuck with those set on the bar ? I have to keep moving poison trap and shadow step in rotation for boss fights and it gets annoying
