yeah the first character you level takes ages. After you hit 70 and play around a bit you start picking up alot of items with -Level Requirement, learn better farming spots and such and it makes leveling other characters alot faster.

D3V i was pretty lucky, i found a leoric the second I hit level 15 and god did that help alot

I have a question: is there a way to level up fast? I started a new charachter and it's boring...should I join groups?



Create a game on T6 in adventure mode and get a higher level buddy to clear hell rift. You can go 1-65 in < 1 hour doing that. Then do bounties by yourself for the rest. Shouldn't take too long.

Feels like we're back in 1999. I started a new char, still takes like an hour to only do the skeleton king and be level 11. Why don't they ever find a solution to this crap?

Find a weapon with a socket and chug a ruby in that mofo. You'll be oneshotting everything up to Torment1 at least untill level 30. Then just dial down the dificulty as you level. There is no reason to not at least play on hard.

I started a new WD recently, and after one playthrough in about 8 hours I was level 62. Then some bounties and rifts for a bit and you're 70.

But is that solo? And without any stuff from other chars? And hardcore? Cause that's me now

Hardcore makes it a bit more of a chore but on softcore atleast I know you can play on Hard from the start without any outside/other character stuff. Once you start crafting a rare(yellow) gearset you can even up it to Expert until ~lvl 40/50

You can do the same in Hardcore (I have done so when RoS was released) but its obvious a LOT more dangerous
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

I got bored and decided to do this. Not very practical or useful, but I can get about 3.5x the toughness I normally have simply by swapping skills. Most of it comes from dodge though.

solo leveling is fairly easy. play through campaign in normal by getting a malthael wp from someone. then get torment and adventure mode unlocked. now you can just do t6 hermit quests with the merc community chat.

ok, so i decided to start playing my old hc chars a bit. since i havent completed act5 with any hc char yet, i cannot access adventure mode on hc. the issue i now have is that i obviously dont want to kill malthael before my toon reaches lvl 70, but leveling to 70 without adventure mode is taking excruciatingly long. obviously, my char is severely undergeared for higher difficulties and i cannot go too risky for higher exp gain since this is hc... any ideas where to get the last few levels?

Why do you obviously not want to kill Malthael until you're 70? If it's a matter of a legendary drop, just kill him now, get to level 70 at least 90 minutes faster thanks to adventure mode, then kill monsters for 90 minutes until you get a replacement legendary. I'm not sure if there's something else I'm missing, but any reward that requires you spend several hours in story mode probably isn't worth it.

Agree with this. No point wasting time for that guaranteed 70 leg, just focus on getting into bounties as soon as you can to get the loot rolling.

well, you are probably right, but im one bar away from lvl 69, so it just kinda feels wrong to waste a guaranteed legendary. and keep in mind this is hc, i have no good gear whatsoever and almost no friends of mine play hc. so i will certainly not start doing efficient t1 split bounties or t3 rifts right away with an average of 4 legs per hour or something like that.

Act 2 Quest "A Royal Audience" up to freeing Adria was a good source for solo XP before RoS. Assume its still the same. Just be aware that it involves the sewers which is always a bit more risky on HC.

Judgement needed to be nerfed. It was a skill that allowed you to do things way beyond your items allowed.

Overall the buffs are awesome. Now Crusaders will need to decide between 2h or 1H considerably more carefully.

Somewhat disappointed in the monk changes. Element changes help add synergy to a lot of builds, but I still don't think it makes monks competitive with other classes in terms of soloing ability. I might revisit my FoE 2h holy build though. 12-15m t3 clears are kinda shitty, but it's a fun playstyle.

I am going to try out a Cold build with the SoH instead of lightning.. not sure if I saved a cold bracer though! -_- Sad my Monk progression has bottomed out.

Probably stick with DH for now then try out Crusader path until next patch. Wish there was a class set vendor! lol

lol rip akarats

still good I guess, still no good reason for us to use 1h over 2h(altho fervor doesnt look bad), there might be a better possibility of running a Fire Crusader right now although Holy/Lightning still seems stronger, esp Holy.

I haven't touched my Crusader in over a month but these changes look encouraging. What's currently some of the solid builds and will that change much post-patch? Are there viable builds without Jekangbord? That seems to be the talk of the town. Might try a Hammer build. Used them for most of my leveling and still loved it.

Edit: I'm seeing a ton of what look like Holy damage buffs. The way to go?

Interested to see if I can work Archon into my Cold wiz build now too.
