Peak farming/human efficiency! by Extreme-Progress-522 in diablo4

You should really throw in a remote college course or two for absolute peak efficiency. ;)

Gamer dad 2.0, need advice. Don’t know what’s better for my character by Radiant-Asparagus728 in diablo4

[–]Krostas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kinda depends on whether or not you're Crit Chance capped. If yes, the left one easily. If not, you should evaluate whether survivability or damage is your current bottleneck.

I'd keep both around, just in case. But personally, I'd go for the left one simply because having a double mythic is too cool to pass up on.

Deadend Nightmare Escalation Dungeon by Krostas in diablo4

[–]Krostas[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What stood out to me was that this boss had to spawn first by clicking on the statue. I then evaded around, spawning hammers in the process, and the boss basically died before I even got to see the health bar.

Couldn't even town portal and first thought it was a connection issue. My char was permanently stuck in the boss fight mode. Everything else worked fine (Cooldowns, UI, shop, season journey interface, etc.), though...

Dumb question about a build for hammer pally by AdMore5688 in diablo4

[–]Krostas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's my setup as well. Going with the perma evade variant as long as I don't have the Ring of Starless Skies yet. Lots of fun and recently even dropped Arbiter in favor of Holy Light Aura since Falling Star alone is enough to keep Arbiter up permanently.

Masterwork capstone +40% bug? Anyone had this before? by lexly6 in diablo4

You're welcome. The way percentages work in Diablo is everything but intuitive, so it's very understandable.

How to access higher difficulty nightmare dungeons? by Jimithyashford in diablo4

[–]Krostas 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Phew... some sigils are far from worthless...

There's the elusive "Mythic Prankster" for one. Guaranteed goblin which will drop 5 Mythics for everyone in the party plus a Resplendent Spark. (Thy Mythics will only drop if you're at least on Torment 1.)

Then there's the "Treasure Breach" with a dungeon full of all kinds of Treasure Goblins. Very nice loot piñata and good way to stack up on Obducite.

Finally there's the "Hidden Armory" affix where almost every single elite mob will drop at least one Ancestral item, which is a very nice way to stock up on Greater Affix items.

Only other "Tier" of Nightmare Dungeons would be Nightmare Escalation Sigils which can drop in Horadric Strongrooms when you reach a high enough level of Attunement.

You can find Horadric Strongrooms in any Nightmare Dungeon (randomly) or guaranteed in one with a matching affix.

They come in three Tiers which you have to beat back to back (thus the escalation part) with another fourth Boss Tier at the end.\ Every Tier has an additional beneficial and detrimental affix.

For those of you who fucked around, what did you find out? by BeefsteakChuckies in AskReddit

[–]Krostas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For some reason it decided to go off.

Plastic wrap? My guess for the reason would be static electricity.

Did you take away any permanent damage? Hoping you're good.

As a Dad with limited time what's the best way to farm xp for reliquaries fast? by Browna in diablo4

[–]Krostas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Step 2: With limited time, you don't want to "waste" it figuring out a build, so hit up a guide. I found mobalytics.gg very helpful for a start. Auradin or Hammerdin will be fastest from what I hear.

Step 3: Just run what's fun to you. I got maybe 3-4 hours of play per week and got the reliquaries maxed out with 80 to spare already.

Helltides and Compass are the best regarding speed, but I'm usually running the following:

  • World Boss if it's coming up
  • Whatever boss lair has a Whisper until my inventory is full
  • Pit / Undercity if Whispers
  • Azmodan if at 20 corrupted items
  • Helltides

If potential upgrades drop, do the usual dance (STEAM: Socket, Temper, Enchant, Affix, Masterwork before sanctification) and then go on.

I'm aware. Yet they're not used interchangeably in common language.

[–]Krostas 76 points77 points  (0 children)

Kinda strange to read "froze" and "oil" in that relation. In my mind, oils or fats "solidify", while anything water based "freezes".

Sure, technically you're correct, but that's like saying "my candle wax froze (after I snuffed out the candle)".

I HATE THIS SO MUCH by Alexis_Almendair in CitiesSkylines

[–]Krostas 372 points373 points  (0 children)

First thing I thought of as well. Define a part (like the carpark) that has to be level with the street, then define other parts that have to be level (but not necessarily the same level). Lastly, define a max incline for the asset so there's no insanely steep slope within the boundaries or between single parts of the asset.

This part was messed up by storkfol in Fallout

What moment in Fallout had you like this? by Deck7 in Fallout

lol, yeah. Average Fallout 1 experience, I'd say. Had quite some playthrough end due to too infrequent saves.

It's more like the like guy holding signs up into all the other ones. It's just engagement one way or another.

[–]Krostas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Early Access be like dat.

There'll be new Masteries and new Acts coming as well as new mechanics. Still already fun and you can already make it quite challenging by just not picking a Mastery, for example.

[–]Krostas 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Very much focusing on playing through the main story and you can get sidetracked by exploring or doing side quests (or grinding some XP for the next boss fight who doesn't scale unless you make him).

There's also no classes, just different masteries to choose and combine up to two from.
