To be fair... My derpy Barb kills everything with one hammer smash or smash + deathblow. So for once in my entire D4 experience I feel like I can say there's ONE thing I do better than AHHHH ASPLODE EVERYTHING! sorcerers.
I agree. not sure how I feel on the mana management being removed. but I am still having fun.
They unlock on the skill tree after spending 20 ability points, so either level 21 with no renown or level 13 with all renown.
The game has flaws, some serious ones to be sure, but no amount of everything else being good matters. People can't let themselves enjoy anything and then feed of the buffet of negativity, watching a "competitive" .1% mathematician streamer do the same exact thing for 60 hours then call it boring.
Yeah, I don't think the cool kids of these days could survive the old school dos-prompt life when we had to walk uphill, barefoot, across the hells, to fight pixellated, blurry dudes, all ways... like crotchety old bastards like me.
Just wanted to point out, since I was the first to say something, that most of the music I listen to has been released in the past 5-7 years. I occasionally have the nostalgia taste and listen to AiC, GnR, etc., but it's not primary listening anymore.
I'm not seeing much stuttering, even in the huge world event battles. They seem fluid. I do encounter occasional lag ... because the damn game is essentially single player with MMO elements built in. I've been insta killed a couple times over the past couple days beating on the game but it seems like that has been largely ironed out. I managed to reach Level 52 without much trouble. Was having some issues after X level beacuse the monsters were scaling faster than I was at each level. Had to start tossing all the good item bonuses I was getting in favor of enhanced armor and defensive benefits. But, overall, it's been good. Still can't make heads or tails of being "blooded" in the PvP area. i got mobbed by a party once but I have at least one kill there as well. You only loose the hatred coins or whatever they are called when you get ghosted and they some stupid cleansing thing you have to do or you loose all the ones you earned. I probably skipped the initial dialogue so I have no idea what I'm doing there. That seemed pretty fluid to me as well (PvP).
Do we get a free bucket of KFC if we join up?
I had no idea, I am gonna have to disband mine. Glad you posted this
No. Everything is scaled by percentage. Think of it like you're not hitting that mob for 2000 HP of damage, you're hitting it for 20% of it's maximum HP. XP is similarly scaled.
It's the best class in the game overall.
Yup, we just wombo-comboed him, too. They really need to consider level locking these though.
I don't think the low level people have any effect on the treasure output. I have been, generally, underwhelmed by the loot overall. Not a single unique has dropped in 5-6 world boss fights. meh... First two fights I got a paragon point though, wonder if that's a daily or weekly thing. I will figure it out tonight.
I had heard that the Barbarian and the Rouge are both receiving day one nerfs.
They've already nerfed the spinning blades build. Wasn't huge....but its there.
Yeah, but there is allegedly a day one patch set to drop when the game opens up for everyone other than those of us that got in the early release.
Nerfing is a way to balance stuff. You buff or you nerf to get to the target result.
I felt a very similar way playing though act 1 again for the third time (previous two betas), but once you get past it... the game gets good, real good. And out of nowhere, I'd say late act 3 to act V, stuff starts to get intense.
I was a big fan of the Sorcerer in the beta, then they nerfed it... Was also a fan of the Necromancer and they nerfed it.
What was weird was I ended up completing Act 2 before I finished Act 1... probably because I have been running all over the map to get to the world events.
