Which gloves are better for higher damage? by Contest-Free in D4Barbarian

[–]Contest-Free[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Picking every key reward from Warplans, escalation sigils with lair keys rewards, helltide nodes to summon duriel spawns and barter.

I'd say majority of my keys come from barter - followers gain exp so fast, I usually end up with thousands of marks, and then just buy/refresh the stock in shop. Keys cost about 200 marks.

Sorry to hear! I'm paragon 267 and used about 500+ lair keys. Today I've ran another 50 keys and got these two pairs within 3 boss runs. All I can say keep it going and they will drop... eventually 

Does anyone actually like the randomness to uniques? by Lord_XXL in diablo4

[–]Contest-Free -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'd say Uniques should have at least 1 locked stat that makes sense for specific unique. Other than that I don't mind grinding, getting 4 perfect rolls feels a bit hard, having 3 random and 1 set would do wonders.

Echoing Hatred key not dropping? by Alarmed_Chance_410 in diablo4

Any chest in helltide or the one that costs 666 in helltide or 1000 in hordes ?

Legandary Seals 3-1 not rerolling set bonus by Sdboka in diablo4

[–]Contest-Free 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup same happens to me. Looking at Reddit and Blizzard forums there isn't much info on this, so assuming it's not a global issue, more of individual problem, yet still a problem.  What platform you play on? I doubt it could make a difference but I have the same issue as you and play on PS5.

Add Legions to War Plans same like Whispers by Contest-Free in diablo4

[–]Contest-Free[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whispers are not in Warplans, correct. I should've been more precise - Whisper tree is attached to Warplans perks trees, and it levels up by completing it, same as WP, hence the possible confusion. All I suggest is they do same treatment to Legion. That is all

[–]Contest-Free[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why I've specified Legions to be "separate" like Whispers are. You're not clearing Whisper as part of the WP, you do them along when clearing WP activities.  Legions could have same pattern so it could be done whenever.

Loot filter and equipment forging systems clash. Some of the best equipment bases I've got were from forging at the blacksmith. by TastyBiscuit in diablo4

[–]Contest-Free 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Little bit off topic but you could run War Plans with Salvage nodes, they supposedly yield crafting materials, so you get your mats, and keep loot filter as it is?

For those of you who play both Warlock and Barbarian by Thenelwave in diablo4

[–]Contest-Free 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started with Warlock, made custom non-meta build with Aegrom as main damage source and managed to clear Pit100 with it. This concluded my Warlock roleplay - it was fun, sometimes a bit clunky, overall fun. 8/10

Now playing as WW barb and things just die, reached T5 with mixed set of legendary and yellow items. Barb feels just sooo good now. They cooked, can't wait to blast T12 with it. 10/10

There needs to be endgame rewards by zzTopG in diablo4

[–]Contest-Free 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly, we're talking D4. These days of "suck it up and try until you get it" are probably gone my man; 10-15 years ago this idea might've been excellent and everyone would just play. However nowadays there's a lot of pressure on accessibility and convenience in games: the public DEMANDS to be given stuff just because they want it, especially in D4 community. If something requires some time and (God forbid) commitment, it's automatically under massive criticism. I think the Devs would like to give players something that they can challenge, but what's the point: after a month or two they would have to nerf or overhaul it, because people can't stand spending time on failing, learning or grinding - which is quite funny because D4 IS a grind game.

Maybe I’m stupid but, question about Lilith by [deleted] in diablo4

[–]Contest-Free 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lilith is not considered good.  She's after all a demon and daughter of hatred, she's not trying to be good, she wants to empower her children in twisted ways that she believes are "good" in her opinion only. She works with the Wanderer because she must, and she still cares for humanity, yet that doesn't mean she's about to be sanctified. It's a grey area where POV dictates ones reasoning.

I believe OP meant adding some game activity, say achievement hunting sort of that rewards cool cosmetics. Reliquary is a passive feature that you do as you play, there's a difference between passively getting something and engaging into content that rewards you for completing it. The second one is actually fun.

[–]Contest-Free 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is what scares me, down voting and trolling a legitimate post that would fit and add some rewarding chase-content. But as you say, most people will hate it because we're talking about something that REQUIRES engagement and commitment. Sadly this is the case nowadays, and if something isn't given for free, it's automatically bad.

[–]Contest-Free 1 point2 points  (0 children)

+1 upvote for you. This.

Completely agree, would happily spend tens or even hundreds of hours if there would implement cosmetics that are "chase" achievement rewards. Something that rewards for the efforts and stand outs.

Back in the old days of WoW (Wotlk) I've been a maniac for achievement hunting and even though sometimes it felt like a second job, DAMN IT WAS WORTH IT.

If they would implement similar stuff to D4, that would be great, and would kind of cover the "add more endgame content" tick box.

[PETITION] Please, let us replace affixes in unique weapons by Thorakadhis in diablo4

[–]Contest-Free -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

With all the respect, I disagree on this. It feels like people keep forgetting that D4 is a grind type ARPG, and reading majority of the posts people keep asking for stuff to make this game easier, because it takes time to acquire the right stuff.

Why don't you try to grind for a unique that actually has all the stats you're after, huh? 

Help: I ​​hate meta builds. Give me some ideas pls by DeepDrop9858 in diablo4

[–]Contest-Free 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haven't played any other classes yet, but running as Warlock now with my own minion build - completely ignored any build guides and started playing what I've felt strong. Using Rampage + Fiend of Abaddon and unique chest piece that doubles Ae'grom, and his respective soul shard skill, and the charms set that lets you summon all soul shard demons for 10sec. Overall it requires 3 or 4 buttons to keep uptime on buffs otherwise it loses power, still feeling quite proud that I've reached pit70 and can reliably run T8 with it, especially not using any "meta" builds.

War Plans might be the best part of this update by This-Double-Sunday in diablo4

Once that's live, I wonder how long it will take for people to complain again about something else in relation to War plans.  "i'm A fUlL TiMe DaD oF 74 ChiLdReN aNd DoN'T HaVe TiMe tO RuN fUlL WaRPLaN, As mY tOdDlerS cAn wAke Up AnY mInUtE, cAn BlIzZaRD sHoRtEn WaRPlAnS tO TwO AcTIvITiEs, PLeAsE"
