Question, just got an ancient IK boulder breaker. I currently have a regular IK boulder breaker. I am doing raekor with boulder toss. The regular boulder breaker gives me +21 fury. The ancient one does NOT have + fury, but according to comparison gives me +67% damage over the regular one. However the comparison does not factor in boulder toss.

But i'm not sure the damage mechanics of boulder toss so i can figure out which one is better. Each pt of fury spent is 20% weapon damage, so 21 fury = +410% weapon damage right? Not sure how to compare that to the +200 extra str the ancient boulder breaker gives me plus the higher base damage....

If you only had +max fury from paragon boulder toss would do 171/150=14% more dmg with 21 fury on weapon when used with full fury pool. Or 3420/3000=14% if you want to use the weapon dmg %.

nah that's just how i figured it would work and i don't see any other way for it to be calculated, just new fury amount divided by old fury amount.
It can be pretty hard to compare a good rolled non-ancient with fury to an ancient with no fury and average rolls though since all the other stats are different too. You should try d3planner site and import your items and see what it says.

300 DB/souls trying to convert set piece to get a UE helmet and I literally got boots, shoulders, chest, over and over and over again. I know it's 1/6 and the recipe isn't meant to be consistent but holy fuck I literally just need the helmet. I have gambled every shard I have gotten for the last week since I had an ancient Yang's drop to still not have one so I said fuck it and now I am even more salty.

Fun game.

Agreed. Character progression takes you into the game and takes your mind off other things, but it doesn't put much pressure on your performance, so it isn't too draining.

made a wizard , pretty awesome game so far, quite like the story mode.

It seems there is an extensive endgame but for now i'm just happy following the story, reading all the books and blasting dead creatures.

Yeah, story mode was good for one playthrough. YMMV on quality of story, but it's still fun to go through.
Average means I'm better than half of you.

any thoughts on the "Diablo4 announced at Blizzcon" theory?

TLDR; lots of hints that there will be a 2nd D3 expansion, lots of hints that there is none.
Also, speculation galore.

Yeah if anything will be revealed this year, it will be D3X2, not Diablo 4. I remember them sending a survey to people asking if they'd want to see a 2nd expansion. To be completely honest, right now I'm not sure I'd buy it, but it would intrigue me and I'd follow the development. But no more throwing money blindly at Blizzard for me.

If they really are starting to work on D4 hiring talent for a brand new game, do not expect to hear on it for at least 3 years or more. You and I know Blizzard.

well couldn't be more then 2v2 that easily. Aside from that they just need to create equipment that balances the classes and only works on the pvp maps and have damage modifiers as well on said maps, so you don't need like 99,9% resistance vs players.

But last Blizzcon it already looked like we will get another exansion, so not to surprised but hyped.

Doubt they are thinking about PvP in anyway though. Would just add competition with their pvp games.

Plenty of games have different balancing for PvE / PvP modes.

And 1v1/2v2/FFA is pretty much all you need / all anyones ever wanted.
Useless wet fish.
