Restarted the campaign mode at around 60 and made it to act 5 with only 3 levels remaining, so I'm almost 70 on EU now. WOOT. Wonder what I want to gamble for first with blood shards...

Since I want to be a shield throwing monster, I guess I gamble for shields and cross my fingers for Jekangbord? Yeah... yeah! Wait.. maybe. I'm so torn! Guess we'll see what drops from the rift guardians and while I farm for bounty cache items once I hit 70.

I'm not sure how/why I'm this excited, lol.

Blackthorn amulet is big troll. I don't think it's possible for a good roll on that since it always seems to have IAS and Life% from what I can tell. Both stats are undesirable to most specs. I'm not aggravated enough to salvage it without identifying it but I still don't expect anything when I do.

I think a big issue is amulet bis vs blackthornes is vastly different in powerlevel in regards to maximizing a build.

Yep, gamble for the jekangbord if that's the build you want to play. But don't expect to get it right away ^^.

lol

How do you deal with Waller daphreak? I know hammers go through everything, and since I've been focused on Holy skills I use Fist of Heaven - Divine Well since it will be cast past the wall.

holytits was "improper." =P

i actually like the fire steed because it works well with maximus. it gets me out of harm's way with elites, including wallers, and when i have the demon up from maximus, i just jet through packs of elites/monsters and the fire from steed + fire chain do serious dmg. i actually think the fire chains do more dmg than my character. =P

I've been playing my Wiz for a while now and want to shake it up. What class(es) are doing well right now? I played my crusader a lot initially @ 70, but didn't like the shape they were in and went back to wizard ever since. I have a 60 barb and WD waiting to go.

I've always like the idea of doing pet builds on WD, and that seems to work better now? Do you need a lot of specific gear for it? Or does it work at fresh 70

Hmm i play with holy, but this is what i use

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/crusader#USPdlQ!aYeS!bYaYab

Bowmen, heaven´s fury and pursuit justice to have some decent single target, even tho you can spam them.

And provoke with charged up because it is good to get wrath, and more importantly, it procs rally, so it goes insanely well with the cooldowns i have.

Change the rune of blessed shield to fire and give it a go. It is pretty solid. Heaven´s fury is interchangeable btw for other skills if you want, i use it because i have +%skill damage for it.

You don´t need any "buff damage cooldown" with blessed shield, it just destroy everything anyways.

Edit - oh yeah , the char.

that's my current crusader build, I use condemn over heaven's fury because i have Blade of Prophecy.

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Crms-1320/hero/43697016

is the character, I have lots of room for improvement but still crushes t3/t4 rifts.



just general info, I don't think fire build crusaders are as viable in comparison to holy or physical builds. holy builds centered around jenk or BoP combos seem to be the most efficient but are severely neutered vs rift bosses or single target. Physical builds with falling sword and phalanx can DESTROY single target but aren't really great rift clearers. Crusaders are in a weird spot right now where you either destroy AOE or destroy single target, it's hard to find an actually balance for both. The build/skills I'm running now is my best attempt at being balanced but my single target is still pretty meh compared to my AOE clear.



edit; how do you already have 2 piece akkhans, i hate you.
edit2; i know you said to ignore skills but unless im mistaken, long arm of the law is bugged and doesn't actually increase duration of laws of valor -critical, just fyi.

i was testing long arm of the law, and yes, it did seem bugged.

i also heard that the shield throw with fire rune is bugged because as soon it explodes, it no longer bounces to other enemies. i have seen this described as a bug and "as intended."

my "end game" is not a fire build, its just what i have now. i only have a couple pieces of +holy dmg so it doesnt make sense to switch at this time. i want a farm build to get the pieces i need.

First day of 70. Some hilarious luck because they dropped in the same rift. Best part was the ring of royal grandeur tho, still waiting for the 2.05 patch to try out more rerolls. I am cheap dude.

I am right now farming to build a hallowed barricade crit/str/%holy/%FoH, to try out the divine well,, but something tells me that FoH is just better with lightning buids.

if you have a lot of left over INT gear from your wizard, and rare trifecta rings, you can probably start t1 rift as a witch doctor.
to get into higher torments with Pet witch doctor, you absolutely need Theo+Tasker, and Mask of Jeram with some physical damage. To do the really high torments you're gunna need SMK and a few set bonuses to increase your durability.

edit: talking about pet WD. if you do DoT WD you only need Quetzalcoatl with various int gear + %elemental skill dmg.

My Barb is mostly done. I don't feel like I want to grind for marginal upgrades on my gear anymore, so I started a pet WD. I've gambled away over 10k shards on gloves, have not yet seen a T&T =(... I've been told that physical dmg build is best, still a long way to go. Anyone has a link to a profile with end game pet gear?

Right now I'm thinking Cain's pants and boots instead of Ashera's, and blackthorn's armor and belt... Would I lose too much DPS from doing that?

According to diabloprogress, my char has the 8th highest armor among all WDs in america, the lols:

I FINALLY got a Jekangbord on my Crusader, and it does have over 730 dex/vit and is 5 extra bounces, but it has no crit or block chance and has a base 10% block >.<
After I reroll the life regen to crit (other stat is condemn damage) ill end up losing 21% block chance and that hurts. Not only does it lower my survivability but my blessed shield damage itself as well. Guess I'm still gambling shields...

why is reapers fear popular? how do you get health globes to drop more? the barb has a passive that increases the % but i thought that was it? seems like health globes drop too randomly for reapers fear to be good, unless there are some mechanics about it i dont get? tried a quick google search

it's one of the few legendary bracers with a unique passive that is worth a shit, it's also easy to farm. I honestly don't think there are better bracers for a crusader (unless you have flail/jek combo) as wrath generation isn't the greatest and the globes add a nice kick to your damage spam. Other than set bonuses, stand alone unique bracers just don't really offer much, aside from a couple and none of those are crafted, so you have to get lucky with drops.


tl;dr they are 1 of maybe 3 legendary bracers with a worthwhile passive that are not a drop, and are easy to craft.

Health globes drop all the time, you have to make sure your pickup radius is not too high so you can pick them up strategically for resource regen.

The only item I know that generates additional health globe is Solanium, you can put it on the follower for a slight bonus.

ok ic, so its just that other bracers don't really have any good passive unique abilities. I crafted one, but my current one had +lightning, +crit, +vit, +str whereas the reapers didn't have crit or lightning, so i am just going to stash it for now. thx!

They are easy to craft, just prepare yourself for a batch of 3/4 and you should get one with pretty decent stats. Bracers are like the easiest item to get the right affixes on.

reaper's competition is one of the set bonus bracers, aughild in particular. which oen is better for you depends on the build.
