Well done Chosen. Protatoe made a much better guest than haxudon did, which made the entire episode much more watch/listen-able.

Playing self-found WD, i see an orange light appear with the word "Mojo" i start getting pumped. It's a serpent instead of a Thing of the Deep... but still, a legendary mojo!

After identifying it immediately turns into a brimstone and i'm so sad =(

Starting up on hardcore and have a barb soon to be 60. I'm guessing going 1h+shield and some rend+revenge build is optimal for low budget? But how do i build him, what gear should i be looking for?
so far i'm guessing just much vit+str+allres, some life%? and attackspeed/life on hit wepon? probably forgoing most crit damage/chance till i get richer?

Please dont suggest stuff that costs hundreds of mils but i'm pretty sure i'll be able to farm a few milion in a resonable time.

also if someone wants to play noak#2196, heard games are more fun together.

Yea for my barb, I went good ol' sword and board tank barb, then slowly added crit and dps until I could transform him into a HoTA barb for fast inferno alkaizer farming. It also made the process faster when I had pickup radius on some of my armor.

Question for the hardcore vets, I'm wondering if crafting flawless star amethysts and then selling it on the market worth it?

Looks like you're on EU or I'd help you shop, but yeah, just wanna set up a tanky rend revenge spec. Go for crit over ias for that spec though - you want to maximize damage per hit with rend (ias doesnt increase rend damage).

Well I know it's profitable, but I was wondering if they sell like hotcakes, I don't want to be sitting on flawless amethysts if tome of secrets sell faster.

I'd say tomes would def sell faster, but amethysts should certainly sell reasonably.

Ok, so i'm now enjoying HC big time. Just a few questions if I may...

1: Doing normal at the moment, I have just picked up a couple of socketed items from the AH, its like 1000gp for flawless square gems which makes my character stormingly OP for normal Act 1. Am I right in saying there is so little challenge in normal that I should basically just be trying to get xp as fast as possible?

2: Is there any need to repeat normal content or shall I just aim to blast through normal as quick as possible and get into NM. With a few vit gems in some cheap socketed items I should faceroll normal.

3: Is it better to find public games or play solo?

4: +exp items seem useful, my aim is to hit 60 as soon as possible right?

5: At the moment I am AHing anything I find that is useful and salvaging the rest, is this right?

6: I have only found 1 (rubbish) ledgendary in 100 hours of playtime over all my characters... am I just unlucky? I even had a fair bit of MF on my WD in SC.
Praise the sun! \o/

1)Yeah, you can also turn monster power up for more xp if you find it too easy.

2)Pretty much just roll through as quick as possible, as long as you are clearing most areas you'll gain the lvls naturally as you progress through the game.

3)Public games have risk/reward. Risk is someone else's stupidity may get you killed if you're not careful. Plusses are you normally will clear faster and risk of dieing to a dc is lower. If you don't have any issues with disconnects I'd likely just play solo til 60, but thats personal preference.

4)Your aim is to survive, but other than that, yeah getting to 60 asap is most important.

5)Many ppl would ah anything useful and sell everything else, but if you like to craft or want to take the time to salvage items go ahead, again more of a preference thing.

6)Sadly not just unlucky. In fact, getting a legendary in the first 100 hours makes you one of the lucky ones. Legendaries don't really drop often until you get high mf.

Just hit 50 last night on my new monk. Anyone around that level want to play for a bit this evening (US)? Or I'd take a powerleveling and then we could play when I ding 60 - whatever. I just feel safer playing with other people and it'd probably be more fun.

So I find that selling flawless star amethysts worth it. I can make one at about every 15 alkaizer runs (finding 174 tomes/x number of flawless square amethysts). This makes a million and some change more than if I were to just sell tomes of secrets and probably would come to a mill if I were to sell the flawless squares too.
