In fact, lore wise, the Paladins from D2 and the Crusaders from D3 almost hate each other. In other news, I lost my HC crusader yesterday due to server lag on EU around 19.00 CET (anyone else?) which sucks. I've lost HC chars before due to me being overconfident or stupid but there's a special feeling when you watch your HP going down while being unable to move and then finally being DC'd and coming back to a ghost. On the bright side, I've accumulated enough gems to speed things up a tad. Started a new Crusader yesterday and hit lvl 25 in less than an hour. I use this shield skill with "every enemy hit gives 9 wrath" skill. It's always off CD when I need it  Hammerspam of doom. Brings back good memories of Diablo 2 <3 | ||

Once you can solo four man normal you can have each person take an act and get four caches in the time it takes to solo one. Once you can clear torment at a reasonable pace you should be playing it though because the good items don't drop below torment. Some important items (like the ring that reduces the number of items to complete a set) only drop from caches so you still have to do the boring drill. | ||

Found a list of legendaries that can drop from bounty bags. If you do not need those legendaries there's no reason to farm bounty bags btw. | ||

I have 2 of the items on that List (Coven's Criterion and Salvation) and i'm fairly sure neither came from a cache. again not 100% but im fairly sure I haven't had a legendary from a chache yet. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + In Malthael's fight, the music reminds me so much to "The silence of the lambs theme." Which is awesome. | ||

Just wanted to confirm before I stack more. I saw an increase in my numbers directly when I started to stack fire damage on my barb. might be that you have to little to notice yet but it should work | ||

For something like a wizard that generally doesn't care about elemental damage, +% elemental damage is a huge boost because it increases the base damage of the skill BEFORE it gets multiplied by your main stat. | ||

Crit chance is actually higher than element damage per affix slot once you get into the 400+crit damage range. But if you can get all three with primary stats that would be ideal. This also depends on your current stats. You can't definitively say one is better than the other. | ||

Im talking about the affixes elemental skills do x% more damage, not the +% elemental damage. isnt that just a flat % increase over w/e the element is? guess I probably just didnt get enough for it to be noticeable, just wanted to make sure before I commit more slots to it. | ||

The #1 damage is the x elemental dmg Its better than crit and everything else | ||

They're the same thing, I just worded them differently. On April 02 2014 10:52 Foxxan wrote: Well i have read otherwise.

So provide math then or else i believe that other text. You have the elemental dmg + the skill increase to They scale good | ||
