You can't really craft a super-gg multi-exalt weapon anymore. But its still pretty easy to get a 220pdps dagger which used to be a bitch to get but now is trivial (with just flaring + IPD, no multi-mod). Flaring being harder is DUMB (i wish i knew how much harder tbh) and completely unecessary combined with the multi-mod cost nerf but whatever. Classic GGG not thinking about the problem for more than "HAVE PROBLEM NERF ASAP". I wish 5/6% leech amulets were a bit mroe common  | ||

My Flameblaster is lvl 85 by now, but idk, leveling is getting slower and slowly the fun is dwindling. Flameblast prolif clearspeed is awesome, though and I'm still playing. Not having many close calls as well. | ||

I would really be grateful if you guys would could tell me what are the top 1 or 3 builds for each class in the game, just something I could google and find a good guide for. There are like 20 or so guides for summoners so I'm a bit clueless on where to start, and it sounds super boring to level through the first 50 or so levels but I might be wrong since I haven't tried it actually. Thanks for all the info! Do not level with a summoner. If you want to play summoner level with something else and respec into summoner later. As far as tops builds they switch around as patches/balances are released. I'd just find an ability you think is fun, check to see how people are using it on the forums, and adjust it slightly for yourself. Or browse through builds of the week and 1.2 builds on the forums until you see something you want to do. Most of the currently popular/best builds will have threads on the first page. In Beyond I'm currently running a Dual Flame Totem build and in Rampage I'm using Chin Sol Ice Shot/Puncture Trap similar to the build of the week a few weeks ago. I'm enjoying both builds. | ||

Virtually all my gear will cost over an exalt to upgrade, if the items i want are even for sale in the entire league. I'm level 90, so grinding out XP is a rough proposition (admittedly I have a lot of 76 maps but to map you have to buy chisels which is goddamn impossible etc), I can farm atziri easily but the value is pretty low (half the time u get flasks/boots which are borderline valueless) for the investment (12c per run, no XP gain worth mentioning), and the other time you have to undercut literally hundreds of other people with the same atziri drops. I have probably 5 exalts worth of currency if you consolidated it (3 pure atm) so while i'm not destitute I can't just buy godlike gear for another build that I may wish to play (specifically a shavs :3). I have probably another 8-10 exalts worth of items hiding in my stash but selling is a bitch cuz nothing sells if ur not online and even then stuff doesn't move that fast really. Plus you have to manage ur store thread, set buyouts and/or deal with lowballers, etc. I really wanted to do uber atziri (found the fragments myself) but i died 6 fucking times to the vaals on that lol (okay i'm a shitter I admit it, 5.5K hp should be enough). Going from 0->46% spell dodge should help with that for my next try but I don't have more fragments and it's like 3+ex per set I don't want to blow all my currency on another exceedingly short run for very limited payoff  TL;DR: QQ | ||

I feel like done also since my wander got full gear as far as I consider. The few that can be improved are a 900es vaal regalia 6L and a 400es spell shield, so yah it's best to consider the char done for now. | ||

its the good block base and has 2 suffixes open for block but doesn't actually have it rolled. And, of course, no prefix for spell dmg (fuckign thorns jesus christ how does a double-tier-1 es mod shield drop with thorns :/) Atziri wasn't really a thing in dom, so doing her for a bit was really cool in this league but now it's kinda played out. I think I'd really enjoy uber atziri but like I said I dun wanna risk ALL my currency to do it once more and just get nothing. I'm quite sure that with 2 people I could do the vaals (basically one draws aggro while the other clears trash and DPS's, then trade). The rest should be doable solo with good play (which as i mentioned isn't my forte i'm so bad lol). | ||

I get that there are nigh-infinite builds. I'm a theorycrafter at heart. But I detest levelling thru normal+cruel My issue with buying chisels and committing to mapping is that I wont be able to try uber atziri until I ding 91 if I commit to mapping again since there's a 0% chance I can do uber deathless with this build so i'd be throwing away XP for no reason. I didn't really wanna lock myself out of uber like taht. | ||

I don't mind leveling anymore, it's just a matter of playing through the quests real quick to get levels. The only major increase in difficulty with leveling I feel is usually between act 2 and act 3 of merciless. | ||

regardless, its not about difficulty its about repetitively running content that I'm familiar with and preeeeetty bored of. Also its about being this shitbag character that is at best a shadow of my godly theorycrafted monster that I want to be playing asap lol. Most of my theorycrafted builds literally won't function below 90 points :3 Although its ez to twink these days, that part is true. | ||

If you were in the guild you could get someone to kill bosses for you and avoid the difficulty spike easily. I think challenge/achievement completion is the way to go if you're looking for something to do. | ||

I have the rampage/currency/unique mobs challenges done. There's no way in hell i try for the unique items challenge, the beyond challenge is a possibility if I opt to level in rampage but actually killing abaxoth seems borderline impossible without another 2 weeks of playtime lol, getting 6 more level 65 chars isn't terribly appealing to me as thats literally the worst part of the game x6, Masters is another YEAH RIGHT LOL. Iunno. Basically everything left in the game feels more like "NOM NOM TIME DEVOURING" rather than "Hell yeah this is fun stuff" Please note that I love this game and I'm not trying to belittle it or call it shitty. I'm just saying that I feel like i've hit a bit of a dead end. | ||

Prisoner's gate is actually the worst zone. I'm also only at like 20/60 full cleared zones which is pretty aids. I have the rampage/currency/unique mobs challenges done. How do you miss monsters with tornado shot? Maybe if they're desynced and you think they're in range to die, but the monster got stuck on a wall that wasn't in range, but tornado shot's damage projection is pretty ridiculous. I had a few maps where I had one monster remaining and couldn't find it, but I suspect that had to do with the shatter bug that got fixed. If you think Prisoner's gate is bad just wait until you get to imperial gardens ^_^ There's no way in hell i try for the unique items challenge, the beyond challenge is a possibility if I opt to level in rampage but actually killing abaxoth seems borderline impossible without another 2 weeks of playtime lol, getting 6 more level 65 chars isn't terribly appealing to me as thats literally the worst part of the game x6, Masters is another YEAH RIGHT LOL.

Split shot doesn't shotgun whereas Tornado shot does so the maximum damage is far higher. It's like pre-nerf LA except the damage coefficient is even higher and it works on single targets since you don't need chain. | ||

just that the game feels really bleh once you get to a certain point (for me it was being low on high lvl maps) Granted I still want to try out how the build does with a 6L and drillneck but somehow I just don't feel too motivated. | ||

As for the 7 65s and the full clear they are pretty dull, but I think I'm just gonna grind them out. Got nearly 3 65s so far. Add me if you're interesting in grinding out the final two together, the full clears should be way quicker in a group (ign: "Kuroyukihiime" lvl 88 ts ranger on rampage (EU)) | ||
