Ouch
23GB on mine at 4K with DLAA turned on. No hitching at all. The game is locked at 95 FPS on my PC all the time.The game was consistently using 21G of my 4090's memory... smooth as hell 4k and just some little hitching transitioning to cut scenes.. visually stunning and the audio matches.. When I cast the blood surge spell the sound hits me in the chest and really adds to the experience. Almost like chain lightning used to be in D1.. just BAM BAM and the room is dead. I have some Presonus Eris5's with a small 8" Pioneer 100w sub and man it's powerful and tight. This game makes me wanna turn it way up.
I made it to lvl17 yesterday and am enjoying it about as much as the other betas. I think I might roll a different class today or tom just for grins.. The necro nerf is real. My simp army gets trampled by any boss.. just constant deaths managing getting them back up if I can.. I finally made it to a place where I can bolster their stoutness with skills so maybe they'll be more sturdy ... they locked away that further down the skill tree looks like. Still having fun with the necro though.
the male one does too lol
that's coz they've nerfed everything ;pNot sure why, but I found the March beta to more fun and exciting. This last beta just isn't engaging me: feels bland, boring, and generic.
Will wait on purchasing.
There isn't much of a tomorrow.Apparently the world boss is insanely difficult.
Maybe wait until tomorrow when people have better gear.
OK, so a quick tip.Apparently the world boss is insanely difficult.

Definitely hearing the feedback on the Necro nerfs. I'm feeling 'em too. Remember, balance is journey, not a destination - it takes tweaking to get it right.
This is the EXACT same issue Blizzard had with D3 years ago. The legendaries weren't very legendary and often trumped by a simple rare with better rolls. How on earth can they forgot they already learned from this mistake before?Legendaries aren't really that much better than the yellows anyway.
Yeah dude. On D3 seasons, after a bit of leveling up and grinding out gear sets and stuff, hitting a 100 billion damage, murking hundreds of adds in a row is pretty simple.So I actually started playing season 28 just recently on D3 then of course flipping over to the D4 beta this weekend. Its bitter sweet because while I like where they're going with everything it's night and day coming from D3 where you melt mobs and D4 I'm breaking a sweat killing a couple skeletons. I know it's not anything near endgame right now but I really hope some of the legendaries get buffed a bit. The itemization feels almost like D3 did in 2012 when it released.
I'm all for a challenge. That's why I play hard-core exclusively on D3. And I'm okay with the experience being different than D3, but the world scaling with other player levels doesnt feel right also the itemization being underwhelming makes it feel like no matter how much you grind for better gear and builds, even at max level you're struggling the same as the level 7 dude next to you with starter gear.Yeah dude.

This is a fun new challenge and makes it seem darker too.
Bro - you're in a whole other department with that HC shit. LOL. I envy your patience.I'm all for a challenge. That's why I play hard-core exclusively on D3.

I just have to remind myself that this is the beta and we must only be seeing about 5% of the game at this point.
I'm with you on the itemization, it seems like such an easy fix too, just give players more than one skill point per level and build the legendary powers into the skill tree, or put them on the paragon board as notables. Then just give people different ways to scale damage, damage types, damage multiplies, and the opposite. Then you have unique with + to skill rolls, same with rares. Maybe a unique guarantees a certain skill roll+ some other wacky state or ability.I'm all for a challenge. That's why I play hard-core exclusively on D3.

PSA - We're in the process of rolling out a server side hotfix buff to Necro skellies. It will take a while to propagate worldwide so we appreciate your patience while it's happening. #DiabloIV
Regardless of the difficulty, drop rates, etc, this seems like a good standard for how a triple-A game should be done as they're clearly engaged. Lots of communication and transparency for a game like this, even if that's not enough for some. This is why I'm not terribly concerned with however it turns out at launch as they still have tweaking to do and certainly a lot more once people start getting into paragon boards and nightmare dungeons.
I mean there's also the issue of the nerf going live in the first place.Regardless of the difficulty, drop rates, etc, this seems like a good standard for how a triple-A game should be done as they're clearly engaged.

Again, just look around at other, considerably smaller game releases lately. None of them are remotely close to this level of effort. I know blizzard is infamous for crunch, unfortunately, but I'd say this team deserves a hell of a lot of praise thus far. And rest.
Just repeat the event right outside of town. When you complete it, teleport to town, then right back. It should take like an hour or two to hit 20.I had fun leveling a rogue. Melee with a mix of ranged and poison traps. I don't think I'll get a chance to kill the world boss. Necro is lvl 13 now and is fine expect for bosses with a minion build. Though blood lance was rather nasty at killing things.
Game ran mostly 60fps at 1080p high settings. Game used 8gb of system ram and all 8 of the gpu ram. Only some small stuttering in the main town and some loading issues on the start of a new character.
I was with a group that got her down to 15% on WT2 before running out of time. It was much easier in the first beta with the level 25 cap.Tried Ashava @ T2 and got her to 25-35% this is adequately geared and 50+ % poison resist. Need a well-optimized, skilled crew for T2.
Dropped to T1 and just destroyed her. May try T2 tomorrow and see what happens. Pretty nutty dps check @ level 20.
The stuff you unlock is tied to your account, so it doesn't matter if you keep the server slam installed or not.Just curious, is there any point to keeping the server slam installed after this is over? I'm assuming not, but I know some game unlock stuff depending on what's already on your PC.
Welcome to Walmart we'll make her a Manager on top of it.Female Druid still looks like a morbidly obese Bull Dyke.
True. I'd say they're taking things a little *too* cautiously but they've shown how they can adjust to feedback in a live scenario on a stress test weekend. I'm not saying things are going to be flawless, I'm just saying it's encouraging. I don't doubt we'll see another round of balance changes, ill-advised or otherwise, from this weekend.I mean there's also the issue of the nerf going live in the first place.
It was immediately obvious to anyone who played a Necro for a few minutes. It's like Blizz didn't even test it.
What Class is that?"90min Legendaries Farming in Kor Dragan. 28 in total. 7 equipable at lvl 20."
kor dragan seems to be the place for legos rn.

I did Rogue this time and had the easiest time against Ashava compared to Necromancer and Sorcerer. I haven't tried the other two. The last Ashava spawn for the server slam just finished 7 minutes ago.Welcome to Walmart we'll make her a Manager on top of it.
I'm split between rolling a Barbarian or a Druid I might do a Rogue since they can warp around fast.
What class has the best survival with World Bosses?
That is Barbarian.What Class is that?
