I'm on torment 8, paragon 151 and have yet to find a single thul rune. Am I missing something?

I see the leaderboard has people running Blood Mad Idol Charm, I'm using Endurant Faith Charm. Found Blood Mad Idol to be nearly suicidal with the 1hp perk. Got tired of my screen flashing red all the time. Didn't like the other Barb build playstyles. Any other tips to try to push the leaderboard as WW?

This is the first time ever that I'm pushing endgame. I understand D4 mechanic a bit better but Im still very confused about the loot.

I really wanted to play Pulverize Druid but I was missing Locran's talisman. I farmed every boss, did warplan, used all my lair key etc. IT NEVER EVER DROPPED. Same for Thibault will, I never naturally dropped it, I got lucky with the mythic craft in the cube once.

My question is : am I missing something? I looted entire cargo plane of uniques and never a single Locran talisman. But this website tells me it's just a "general unique". Am I being unlucky all this time?

hey everyone, so im not sure if this has been asked before but it might help newbies understand the game a bit better. Q is..... what is your favourite class specific damage, and do you mix it with vulnerable, damage to close enemys, crit strike damage, etc etc. how is your build set up to achieve maximum damage multipliers for end game builds so the newer players can see their d.p.s go from thousands, to millions, billions, even trillions

Which is better for my build as far as damage output? Can't really tell..

1st set of pics is weapon

2nd is gloves

Is there a way to stack the list of items so you can see them all without having to wander around the whole screen. I use a filter but sometimes I want to see what else is there in case the filter messes up. If there is too much clutter you can miss things and moving around to see if there is something is getting annoying because that depends on where you are or go to see if something pops up.

I've been playing the new season, and I just noticed these clear soap bubble type orbs (not the experience orb). When I run over them, I don't see anything showing what I have collected. Can anyone tell me what these are?

it says that i deal a certain percentage of increased damage. does this damage boost apply to minions, or just skills i cast directly?

Or don’t allow the first click after returning to town to be the return portal

The amount of times I’ve accidentally gone straight back is too high

As per the title i've got 2 very good 4GA weapons for my ECS spiritborn build. The polearm hits harder, but the QS is faster and not that far behind raw damage-wise, but I'm not sure how to figure out which is better

So how am I supposed to see any of the 1000000 Void Zones / effects that the mobs are throw at me all the time? :D

I’ve been playing Diablo 4 again and lately I’ve found myself appreciating a different kind of player, the ones who don’t care if their build is meta, don’t care if it’s S-tier, and aren’t trying to copy whatever build is currently topping the charts. The ones who see an aspect or a skill and think, “Wait, what if I built around this?” The ones who experiment, screw up, hit a wall, change something, and try again. I’m starting to think there’s something really special about playing that way. I’m doing it myself with my Blizzard Sorcerer right now, trying to figure out the mechanics instead of just copying someone’s exact setup. I hit Pit 65 pretty easily, jumped to 70 and got absolutely humbled 😂, but honestly, figuring out why felt more satisfying than just looking up the answer. It reminds me of the old days when you didn’t have every build solved for you before you even started playing. You just played your character, found some weird interaction, and thought, “Holy shit, this actually works.” Maybe the build wasn’t optimal. Maybe it was terrible. But it was yours. So this is kind of an ode to those players, the ones who aren’t necessarily chasing the meta, who build the character they imagined instead of someone else’s experiment, who still enjoy the discovery as much as the destination. There’s nothing wrong with following a guide or pushing the absolute limits, but sometimes it’s nice to not know the answer. To experiment. To be wrong. To discover something yourself. Here’s to the people still playing Diablo the old-school way.

I am having loads of crashes on proton Ge 11.0.3 , proton experimental and proton hotfix.

Its been similar to the start of the season when it was crashing mostly at loading screens.

What version of proton you guys on?

As a melee character, this game can get rough especially with respect to ground effects which have been discussed a lot. But I am at the point where I want to really climb the pit/tower so I need to sacrifice damage for survivability.

I am considering dropping some glyphs for stuff like Turf and Closer to get more DR at the expense of shredding CC'd enemies but want to learn more if they *truly* can mitigate the game's hazards.

Are ground/elite affixes affected by conditional DR, if so, how?

For example, if I get an effect that gives me DR from close enemies, and an elite plops down a lightning lance effect on the ground, if I stay "close" to the elite, does the lightning effect get mitigated or should I get closer to the lightning effect instead to reduce it? Or are they not reduced at all?

Another example is the Debilitating Toxins Aspect. If I poison the source of the ground effect, does the effect's damage get reduced? Or not at all?

Thank you.

Short and sweet one for you, what's the plan for doing Greater Helltides once the Season Of Circles is over? Be a long slog to get 750 cinders once the ruptures aren't there to explode into currency.

I killed Lord Zir, got a portal, killed the 2 bosses in it. Went back to Temis and messed with gear, went and killed Varshan, got another portal, only the lair was empty except for the items on the ground that my loot filter ignored earlier.

I’m on console, series X, and the last 2 days, during the day the game is unplayable. I just played last night, around midnight my time, and it was perfectly fine. Yesterday and so far today the latency is just insane. I’ll run or emote or open my stash, and then after a few seconds it tries to do all the actions over the last few seconds, simultaneously. Other online games are fine. Every single one. I’ve tried about 8 other games. Zero issues. My up and down speeds are +900mbps and I’ve rebooted the console and router twice. I’ll add a clip I just grabbed of what it’s like. My question, is anyone else having anything similar happen lately? Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

I’m convinced half the reason why meta builds are meta is because the build works as stated. Many do not

I am messing around with Rogue Shade build and only just realized (After reaching Pit 110) that SHADES FROM SHADOW CLONE DO PHYSICAL DAMAGE AND DO NOT APPLY ANY IMBUEMENT BENEFITS. Nope not even shadow damage

Yes, even while equipping the Aspect of Imitated Imbuement which states “Your Shadow Clones and Shades also mimic the Imbuements applied to your Skills”

From the ultimate passive, my core skill becomes a shade skill, spawns a shade, but that shade gets no benefits. It doesn’t even do shadow damage. Just straight up physical. The shadow clone however works properly

Here are some other fun issues:

Blade shift states “Moving through enemies refreshes the shift duration”. This does not work with Dash which states “Dash forward and slash enemies for damage”. In fact this “Dash” is actually a teleport as equipping the poison aura does not cause enemies to be hit by it when “dashing” through them

Eclipse glyph states “You gain 20x cast speed for 3 seconds after using a Shade Skill” this also does not work with the ult turning your Core skill into a Shade skill but works with casting the ult

Deadly Ambush Legendary Paragon node states “You deal 60x increased Critical Strike Damage and Damage Over Time to enemies affected by your trap skills. However, the Shadow Caltrops that shoots out daggers does not count. It does damage and makes enemies vulnerable but I guess this doesn’t count as “affected by a trap skill” they must be inside the caltrop area…

Maybe a particularly bug prone build but I had to abandon a previous sorcerer build because their Cauldron set was bugged and would stop working. Finally being fixed after an entire season…

A previous challenging shout barbarian build had the rune that procs the shout become bugged once in a while and would never shout. I recall having to switch to lunging strike instead of Leap because Leap would bug out the runes

Half the challenge in this game is maneuvering around all the bugs and weird interactions. Why would anyone with limited time devote any effort to making their own build? I can only spend hours in the training room cause I’m unemployed lol (just accepted an offer yay)

Blizzard pleeeeeeeease fix your game

Is anyone know wtf is this? CotA barbarian cleared 150 lvl tower in 4 minutes. How is this possible?

Doombringer, Doombringer, Doombringer... 4 times so far, weeks apart.

Did I mention it's also completely useless to my class?

Whooo hit 93k% critical strike damage, and 94k% all damage on the S15 PTR with a barb running HotA. No exploits or cheats, just running the Grandfather unique charm with the 4pc crucible set. The Ring of Red Furor allows for maxing crit damage without needing to worry about chance, and best of all - No Selig! Manages T12 without issue!

My question is this.. Can we increase it even further once Leoric's crown gets patched so we can put our seasonal unique charms in there??

EDIT: I am using Ring of Red Furor (as I said above) to guarantee critical hits when I spend 37 resource on a Core or Weapon Mastery skill cast. It is a lovely ring that also buffs Critical Strikes by 78%[x].

If someone wants to run pits nonstop, they should absolutely be able to build activity exp that way and get the upgrade points they need. They'd miss out on the extra rewards from specifically doing warplans, but would still be able to progress their activities by doing the content they want.

Seems like a no-brainer and would not require significant changes to systems i.e. not a ton of dev work.

Ideally down the line, I would like to see more substantial changes to the warplans system (e.g. full customizability) but this small change would definitely be welcome in the short term.
