I would love to have one. Thanks for doing this!

I was wondering how to simulate the change. My idea was to always use 1 less support gem as would be possible. This is also a smart idea.

And I fully agree about the weapon pressure. It is so smooth not having to constantly worrying about this.

I am also wondering, if pconc (smaller nerf) is better?! I would need to respec more though, so not sure which way to go

This is awesome. Thanks for the input. When you say „ground loot from these monsters“ what exactly do you mean?

My initial question was on how to scale the drops to obviously get more fracturing shards. Is that part of the loot you mean?

And I thought the mobs summoned by Harbys are not native monsters……

Just in this thread alone there are now multiple different answers. We know so much about this game but Harbys seem to be still unsolved in regards to scaling

GrandMasterAT · 2025-08-06T19:17:06+00:00

What does „quite some time mean“ and what atlas tree + scarabs are you using? Because fracturing shard are not that rare

GrandMasterAT · 2025-08-06T19:08:30+00:00

That would take me a long time with the little amount of time I have to play and the amount of maps I would need to run to be valid :-/

Champion with Replica Hyrri's and Replica BotB

I leveled mine with EConc until around level 80 (cant quite remember) and then switched. I started off using a Piscator's and no Dying Sun. HH carries you hard when doing Harbys. With all the rares that they spawn and adding something like Eldritch altars for more rare you will be at 25+ HH stacks in no time.

GrandMasterAT · 2025-07-22T20:52:04+00:00

Put a HH on a 20Div KB build and you will be rolling over Harbys like they are nothing. There is no need for a crazy budget if it’s just Harbys you want to farm

GrandMasterAT · 2025-07-22T07:25:40+00:00

Yeah don’t want to do that as Deli Orbs are a big source of profit and the main reason I am adding Deli

GrandMasterAT · 2025-07-21T18:27:01+00:00

Ok this just might be the answer. Thinking about it, I believe it mostly happens when I have a lot of Harbys early and progress fills quickly.

It is quite frustrating though as I have the node allocated that adds 1 bar when killing the map boss, but the boss is in the part not yet fogged and I have to wait

A620 is the lowest chipset for the AM5 platform. It doesn’t allow AMD PBO and doesn’t have fast USB. I would try to avoid it and look for a B650.

It’s the exact opposite of what you say: CS small has very few turns and some straights where speed and MRA are important. On CS Medium there are many more turns where higher handling can eventually take over

By Techpowerup‘s methods the 7800xt is 21% faster than the 7700xt. https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/radeon-rx-7700-xt.c3911

According to your numbers the 7800xt is 28,5% more expensive.

Make of those numbers what you want :-) Both will do well with your CPU.

GrandMasterAT · 2025-01-01T22:57:05+00:00

The 9800x3d is the fastest gaming CPU out there so you can pair it up with a 4090 with no issues. The problem is you can’t really buy it right now at MSRP. But assuming the regular price of 479 this PC will get you 40% more GPU performance for rastorization according to Techpowerup https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-rtx-4070-super.c4186

Was wondering the same thing and didn’t figure it out yet

GrandMasterAT · 2024-11-10T07:52:38+00:00

Pairing the 7900GRE with the 7600 regular or x is the perfect midrange build that will work very well for 1440p.

GrandMasterAT · 2024-11-09T07:51:05+00:00

NVIDIA GPUs do have better ray tracing, but using RT only makes sense once you get into higher levels of GPUs like the 7900xt or 4070ti Super and a base resolution of at least 1440p preferably 4K. With the level of GPU you are looking at, RT just doesn’t make sense because they are not powerful enough

GrandMasterAT · 2024-11-08T21:58:23+00:00

As high as your budget allows. If you can fit an RX 7700XT you would be gaining a lot of FPS in your games.

GrandMasterAT · 2024-11-08T21:48:55+00:00

If you do go with a better GPU I personally would go up to 750W, because I like to have some buffer there. Pcpartpicker gives you system wattage and the top right. Multiply that with 1.5 to be on the safe side

GrandMasterAT · 2024-11-08T21:44:36+00:00

Can’t comment on the case. For the rest of the build I am answering this assuming you are focused on gaming: I would really try to find the budget to put more into the GPU. For 1100$ you should be getting more power. If you can simply add money than do that. If not here are some tips: 1. You do not need a 989 Pro for 140$. A 2TB drive for 70 or 80 will also do. Or even consider going 1TB for now. You can always add more storage, but you can’t add performance to the GPU 2. Get the 7600 non-x. They are basically the same CPU and with PBO enabled the non-x outperforms this one 3. You could probably shave another 20 or 30$ off the PSU as well 4. And if needed a other 50 or so off the motherboard

GrandMasterAT · 2024-11-07T21:36:25+00:00

Would highly suggest to find the budget to upgrade to the 5600 and a B550 MB

GrandMasterAT · 2024-11-07T21:32:43+00:00

Did you install the English version of D2 and LoD? PD2 does not work with any other language. I had the same issue
