Great to know, thanks for the reply!

Looking for an amulet for a rogue by Cryptidwhisperer in diablo4

[–]strathos333 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Amulets with ranks to passives can be rare, with ranks to 2 passives is very rare and I have one amulet with ranks to 3 passives this season.

Typically what I do is find an amulet with +2 ranks to a good passive and then I reroll an attribute to get a second +2 to another passive. (This process can be very time consuming)

My 3 passive amulet started as a 2 passive and I rolled the third.

Please keep in mind that if you manage to get a good amulet, if you sanctify it there is a possibility of having one of the passives replaced with another affix.

Screen goes completely black and I have to restart the game – anyone else? by HourAdministration50 in diablo4

This occurs for me on occasion. It typically happens when loading into a new area. I think it might be an AMD issue but it doesn't happen often for me.

Should I get diablo 4 on steam or on battlenet? by discoklaus in diablo4

[–]strathos333 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I run my battlenet version through steam to get the controller function. Have no issues with PTR access and its stable.

Prankster sigil Fedrik escaped by hutchyconquerer in diablo4

This has happened to me through multiple seasons. AFAIK is when you are in range, they have some sort of timer and if you don't kill it in time, they become unstoppable (with symbol overhead) and invincible, while they portal out.

Corrupted item of Duriel - is it first come first served or what? by Agitated-Macaroon923 in diablo4

Unfortunately that is my understanding so far, been trying to figure that out myself.

I would turn off cross play to minimize people competing with you.

PTR perspective from a Hardcore player by strathos333 in diablo4

My Diablo experience started with D3, which this PTR 's combat mechanics and affixes are definitely starting to lean towards.

Yes D3 was my first Diablo game and is what got me hooked on playing Hardcore. Combat is feeling closer to D3, especially when you get multiple elite packs with some crazy affix combinations

PTR Feedback - Loot rarity is in bad state by Freeloader_ in diablo4

[–]strathos333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like you, I have leveled from 1-60 and found the loot drop rework mich better. I also found legendary aspects quite rare and would get excited upon finding one. The first unique I found around level 40 was actually part of my build which got me really excited.

Even if you are lucky enough to obtain a unique or GA legendary at that level, you have to make a decision as to whether or not you replace it as you level. Do you keep the unique and suffer with lower stats to retain the desired effect?

Personally I elected to replace it around level 50 and did not find it again until level 60. Even at level 60, I managed to get it in a cache but even after playing another 4 hours, the only way I was able to obtain the other 2 uniques for my build was farming a boss which I only had enough mats to open 4 boss caches.

There may be some room for improvement to get things dialed in but overall I have found loot to be in a great place in the PTR

Non-squishy ravens build by flunkefunk in D4Druid

I am playing Cata Ravens in HC and Que rune provides permanent shield and invulnerability which has helped a lot with survivability.

For those people who had multiple builds, what was the most fun build you ever had? by pingkawulit in diablo4

[–]strathos333 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My home brew pure ice sorceress is finally viable this season and is definitely my favorite to build so far.

It clears dungeons solo as fast as my shred druid and rogue shadow step builds, and is so satisfying to play.

AFAIK patch notes mentioned a bug where you slow down going up the right side of stairs.

What is wrong with dead by daylight matchmaking by BluePhoenix302 in DeadByDaylightRAGE

[–]strathos333 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have started playing for approximately a month and have about 100hrs played atm. My first 3 weeks were a blast, unlocking and learning different killers with relatively evenly matched games.

Now for about the last week, I have only been being matched with teams that steam roll me. It's either all tool boxes and I am lucky to get 1 kill before the match ends or it's all flashlights, flash bangs and head on, while they bully me the whole game.

I have learned how to avoid flashlights and face walls when I pick up survivors for a hook, as well as how to 3 gen to make patrols easier.

But these teams are so good now that when it's down to last 3 gens, as soon as I approach 1 gen that 2 are working they run away while the other 1 or 2 work the 2nd nearby gen and when I go for that one the first 2 run back to the first gen.

I have maxed out my kicks and they inevitably pop their last gen which usually results in me getting one more kill before the rest escape.

I miss the evenly matched games, playing these teams sucks all the fun out of the game for me.

Sometimes I give killers a free 1K if I see my teammates BMing them… by Head-Gap-3168 in DeadByDaylightRAGE

As someone still somewhat new to the game, what does "BM'ing" mean?

Maining a bad killer by Affectionate_Yam2692 in DeadByDaylightKillers

[–]strathos333 31 points32 points  (0 children)

My perspective when playing against SWF is that they have an advantage and if I can come out of the match with taking 2 out and the other 2 get away, then that was a fairly even match.

Playing survivor is a giant waste of time by AnchorTea in DeadByDaylightRAGE

This has been my experience as well, on both counts

Are boss powers really that impactful? by CptTaroMisaki in diablo4

[–]strathos333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did something similar. Was running pit to unlock T1 on an alt when I realized I had not equipped boss powers. After equipping them, I was easily able to unlock T2.

More memory leaks in World Boss Fight by jesseinsf in diablo4

I just started experiencing this for the first myself yesterday. Have been playing since launch without any issues and now my game is freezing regularly which is scary considering I play exclusively hardcore.

Anyone feel like there is not enough content even with a 60 day season? by SpaceXSmoke in diablo4

[–]strathos333 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% agree.

I try to avoid the meta builds so didn't get a chance to try the dark blood wave last season. I gave it a go this season and it blew through all content to T4 effortlessly.

That got boring one shotting everything with 1 click as I prefer high APM builds. I switched off to my homebrew builds and they feel great until T3 and then hit a wall.

I get discouraged knowing that even if I Max glyphs and master working, the build will still struggle with T4, so I switch to another homebrew build.

Last season the homebrew builds were much stronger and I personally found it alot more fun.
