Diablo III: Reaper of Souls - JoeTang - 2015-03-11
The complete lack of Inna's changes and the absolute devastation that Raiment of a Thousand Storms faces is disgusting.
As far as I could tell, the vast majority of the feedback was
I really like how strong and fast my generators are now.
I really hate how Dashing Strike is a thing.
So their solution is to nerf the generator damage and try to promote more Dashing Strike.
[MENTION=6037]Dark Link[/MENTION] I believe they've changed Tal Rasha's to be additive, so it's a nerf compared to pre-patch for absolute damage, but I think the overall uptime and not having to spam so hard helps make up for it. It should be an 8x damage increase now for the 6-piece alone. Combined with the 2-piece, Nilfurs, hnnnnnnngggggggggg. Delsere's much weaker in this case, but also less restrictive in that it doesn't absolutely require 4 offensives and constant rotation.
There's a bunch of interesting legendary power updates that look very promising, but some of these set changes just don't make any sense. Wrath of the Wastes still has Rend for some reason, when everyone has been complaining that stopping to cast Rend is awkward. They've at least changed the delay between stopping, so hopefully that helps, but the Dust Devils effect for Whirlwind is weird since now Whirlwind itself doesn't do pomegranate and you're basically playing ranged kiting?
Why did they buff Roland's 6-piece effect? No one wants that. Everyone wants either a duration buff or a global effect so other skills can refresh it. They also nerfed the Shield Bash bracers which were stupid strong, but they nerfed both effects, while Gavel of Judgment for Barbarians gets to refund 75% to 100% of HotA's cost.
Natalya's is weird since it went from super exclusive Rain of Vengeance to suddenly weird support buff. Hopefully, Rain of Vengeance does 800% damage instead of 500%. There's the new belt, but if you take the most powerful Rain of Vengeance Rune and pair it up with N6, it's suddenly a 10% damage increase.
Unhallowed Essence is still Meticulous Bolts set. Where is the promised incentive to use Multishot?
Inna's weapon is still pomegranate. Thanks.
Witch Doctors are looking pretty cool though, and it looks like they can T&T + MoJ + CoT with Z6 if they RoRG, sadly giving up Tall Man's Finger or Little Man's Finger, but there's flexibility there.
I really want to see Fire Birds 4-piece with Flame Ward or Convergence if it actually procs per tick. Triumvirate seems cool minus the fact that it's Tal Rasha's horrible 3 seconds all over again. Good luck.
Diablo III: Reaper of Souls - IllegallySane - 2015-03-11
The WoTB changes both made me sad but intrigued at the same time. 500% damage boost to you instead of your Ancients means no need for T&T and your DPS should outscale pet DPS if they're keeping this change on top of the WoTB pants. The Fury spending to reset cooldown will be troublesome, but that Gavel of Judgment change sounds downright sexy synergy-wise. In theory it sounds like they made WoTB even stronger thanks to being able to be in control of resetting the cooldown, not to mention it resets Ancients cooldown as well so you can supposedly re-summon them quickly should they die to the Rift Guardian. Spending ~400 Fury to fully reset cooldown should be easy with the Gavel.
I'm pretty excite for Barbarians this patch, also an excuse to return.
Kinda glad they didn't really touch anything Ahkhan's related. I like my horse stunlock spam, thank you very much Blizzard.
Diablo III: Reaper of Souls - Endgame - 2015-03-12
Damn. From the sounds of things on the official forums, they're definitely nerfing Immortal King's. Seeing how a Barbarian solo cleared GRift 60 on the PTR.

I can only hope they don't touch the 2/4-set IK bonuses.

New PTR patch datamined. Saw the IK nerf coming from a mile away. Barbs were super ridiculous.
Diablo III: Reaper of Souls - JoeTang - 2015-03-20
Absolutely disgusting what they did with Roland's and Raiment of a Thousand Storms.
>We want Sweep Attack to be viable
K, don't use Shield Bash then
>We don't want to use Dashing Strike
K let's buff Dashing Strike until you do
Sweep Attack bonus on a regular Shield = no CDR, no Skill%, no Wrath Regen, no Life per Wrath Spent
Also, Triumvirate gives a bigger bonus for a stronger skill with more range.

Season 2 is ending April 5th @ 9pm PST. If you haven't gotten the 400 achieve points for the Seasonal banners and stuff, you've got a little over two weeks left.

Barbs not allowed to have single target fun.

I blame SS Barb.

when season 2's over, all the season 2 drops will go into regular loot rotation, right?
I TRIED TO LEVEL A NEW CHARACTER TO 70, I REALLY DID, JUST. GGHGUHGUgHHhhhh
Diablo III: Reaper of Souls - TugboatWilly - 2015-03-21
Season 2 ending means I need to clean out my non-seasonal stash to prepare.
Diablo III: Reaper of Souls - JoeTang - 2015-03-21
Wish I had the time to do a level 70 S2 character... Anyone wanna powerlevel me? :3
I had the opportunity to test out Natalya's on PTR. It's quite the fun effect now, though I will miss having to do nothing except cast Rain of Vengeance to get more Rain of Vengeance on the lower difficulties.
Strafe seems like a fun opportunity here, except for Stinging Steel and Drifting Shadow. Procs on those are way too low. Icy Trail is pretty godlike if you can melee range things. Not too confident about other skills though since their attack rates are fairly bad, and Rapid Fire has the start-up plus RoV interrupts it so Wohjanni's is worthless.
Also tried N6 + M4 with Meticulous bolts. Was okay, but the same issue with not enough RoVs.

http://www.diablofans.com/news/48373-tavern-talk-summary-stream-transcript
Today's Tavern Talk Summary and Transcript.
Watched it while doing homework. Fairly interesting, but also horrifying how little Wyatt Cheng and Travis Day really knew when they were trying to (non)-answer certain questions. John Yang is a boss though.
For example, completely sidestepping the fact that Demon Hunters out-DPS Wizards by stating that you shouldn't follow PTR if you don't like changes.
Or not knowing that Holy Shock is the only physical rune for Sweep Attack.
etc.
Welp. Looking forward to going back to DH this patch to farm blood shards to gear up some uncompetitive classes :3 Though also looking forward to getting Gungdo and Madstone for my Monk, right [MENTION=18]Justin[/MENTION]?
Diablo III: Reaper of Souls - Dark Link - 2015-03-24
And Season 3 will continue to not change anything. Same old DH/DH/zSader/zWD comp for days on end. Also they really sidestepped a lot of the questions given and/or gave answers that were completely irrelevant to the question itself.

I'll be your non-DH/DH/zSader/zWD ._. after finals
I want to give Delsere's a try. Seems like it could be fun.
Also pineapple stash space. I need stash space or more characters.

Teasing aside, yeah It'll be fun to try out the new stuff and gear up some new classes I haven't touched yet.

I believe the new sets are for everyone, but the modified legendaries are season only. If I read that correctly...
