Diablo III: Reaper of Souls - Shidoshi - 2014-04-29
Polantaris Wrote:What if you account for the fact that if those points were actually in Armor or Dodge?
I would imagine that a +20%+ reduction from armor would be better than a +1% reduction from AR with the same exact points.
They are all linear in their increase of EHP, however since they multiply each other it's more effective to have a balanced amount of each one where possible.
Dodge sucks, though. It doesn't work for a lot of effects like Plagued, Poison Enchanted, Molten, Fire Chains, etc. and yet it scales with the same formula:
10 dex for dodge = 10 str for armor = 10 int for AR.

Crusaders have quite a few strong CD-based abilities - Phalanx and Heaven's Fury for example. Both do high damage regardless of attack speed, allowing Crusaders to use slow but strong weapons to really good effect.

Which supports my overall point. I would get a significantly higher benefit if I were able to stack Armor instead of AR, because my AR is already extremely high. Why are there gems for AR but not for Armor? It doesn't make sense to me.

Just wait for Sapphires next expansion. Or put Rubies into your gear.

On the note of gems i still think blizzard's original idea of having the jeweler give us the ability to socket items was better than it being one of the magical properties on an item. But that might just be my opinion :l
For example if you have a weapon without a socket, you almost HAVE to reforge it for a socket because of how much of a boost it is to your damage.
Diablo III: Reaper of Souls - Justin - 2014-04-29
It's not even an "almost have to" kind of thing, you literally HAVE to get a socket on a weapon or else any other single weapon will beat it.

Yep forget the fact of possibilities of rerolling any other stat. IF it doesn't have a socket it HAS to have one. Bad game design.

Well it wouldn't bad bad game design if the jeweler let you socket an item without it interferring with the magical properties/reforging.
Then it'd just be like "Hey weapons are way better with a socket"(Obviously the other gems should also be more worthwhile so there is a reason to pick something else than emeralds for end-game gear) and not "Hey, if you don't reroll something into a socket your weapon sucks"

Servers just took a pomegranate. [MENTION=1087]Shidoshi[/MENTION] dropped pretty immediately, along with everyone else on my buddy list, but I was still on for maybe five more minutes before I error'ed out.

Indeed. I was about to leave though, got work tomorrow morning. Good runs nonetheless.

I was excited when I looted this, but the game guide is bugged (STILL) and it apparently only rolls 6~10%, of which mine rolled 6%. A decent damage roll on it, and when they fix the elemental damage bug, it'll be okay, but I'd still need to roll a socket into it.
I'm looking to farm Act 2 caches to get some Illusory Boots for my Witch Doctor build, if anyone is up for that sometime. Maybe Act 3 as well to get an Envious Blade for a speed clearing build, and an Overwhelming Desire to see if its effect works with other sources of charm. I googled it and couldn't find an English answer. Had to browse through a Japanese thread and sift through people questioning if it worked with Mass Confusion/Phlebotomize/Addling Toads, and someone said it didn't work with Enchantress's charm. It'd otherwise be quite nice and an even better reason to switch from Well of Souls at higher Torment.

DownsideUp#1383 if anyone wants to add me, btw. I could use more people to chat with.

6 levels to go on my Cindercoat gambler.
Feels so slow but not many levels left now.

Looks like the Mystic Enchanting exploit is still working. Oddly enough, apparently it does NOT work with the Act 5 Mystic, although people are saying you have to Alt+F4 that act.

IS THIS THE PATCH?!?

General
Rat Callers and Tusked Bogans no longer continue spawning additional waves of minions after the second wave is defeated.*
Trivial monsters that spawn during events such as 'The Hive' and 'The Demonic Prisoner' no longer provide experience or loot.*[/COLOR]
Hoping 2.0.5 is next week since I'd rather waste as little time farming caches as possible. Would also be nice to know if they ruin any builds when they do the elemental changes so I don't invest my time into something that doesn't work, though it seems unlikely from my Witch Doctor Cold standpoint.
Diablo III: Reaper of Souls - TugboatWilly - 2014-05-01
3 hours for a patch? Maybe if they did most of the work last maintenance.
