EPTI got a SMK on my 3rd try and an Ancient Serpent Sparker on my 5th try.
Neither one was very good, but if you're targeting specific legendaries, this makes it much much much easier.

Oh. I guess I misread the previous discussion. Getting a Krider will be relatively easy, especially compared to now, and then you can use the power with a different bow and be good to go. I really like the cube for that, opens up a lot of new options and makes it so the "Shit Ya! Awesome Leg I was hunting for... Oh wait. Its not ancient. Salvage  " go away. Like, I found a GG Shard of Hate on my Wiz last night. So I cubed my mediocre Serpent Sparker, and had the time of my life using that Shard. Never could have done something like that before. | ||

The problem is if you Cube the Krider you make you cant hold on to it and reroll it for better stats. Problem now is there are definitely legendaries you are going to want atleast 2 copies of. 1 to cube and the other to hold on and reroll for better stats. Yes the cube helps for when you get that shit min roll rare leg you've been searching for, but now theres the question of cubing it immediately or trying to reroll it into a usable state. | ||

With seasons it doesn't even matter if each patch is perfect, they should just release these big patches and fix them up a little as they go. I kind of agree actually. They use the PTR to work the kinks out and release a clean season (no crazy builds to ruin leaderboards, exploits for leveling when adding new areas/quests/rifts, etc), but a lot players that care about the quality and competitiveness of the seasons will end up playing on the PTR anyway and spoiling the excitement of all the new features when the patch actually drops. I'm slightly guilty, this is the first PTR I've been on in a while, been so long since the last season started and with the new features I couldn't help it. | ||

required 2 players. Find a Bloodshard goblin in the world. 1 opens a Greater Rift and enters. 2nd kills the goblin. Dropped shards receive the GRfit multiplier so people got thousands of shards and gambled for hundreds of items. Long since fixed obviously. | ||
