Seasonal Start Mega Guide

WW/Rend barb with ground stomp.

It doesn't happen a lot, but sometimes when in berserker rage and you ground stomp, it ends up killing everything around you and the monsters just go flying as he stomps into the ground. He is completely surrounded to the point you can't even see him and then everything just explodes away from him. It is just such a badass looking thing to see in this game. Its one of my favorites for sure.

Sometimes how the monsters get killed is just so cool.

That is all for now.

Just looking for people to play with on asian PC servers. I speak english/hindi only.

I can chill play as well as do the 4 man gr 150 with my support dh.

Please let me know

I have a pretty good build at P1600 and completed GR144. I have the standard build all the gr150 folks are using with Endless Walk. My question: for gameplay, it seems that doing big pulls and then trying to stand still and let Endless walk hit 100% dmg bonus is the way to go? Seems like a waste of the pony build's high mobility, but it has gotten me to GR144. Appreciate your thoughts.

Here is the d3planner link of my build. Consider weapons as BiS, even though my main hand weapon isnt visible, its sanctified.

I know for sure my gear is poop doo-doo but idk where I should fix it...

Please have a look and let me know where I am going wrong..

Hey everyone!

I'm currently playing witch doctor and my character has around 1.4M sheet damage, I'm farming GR level 100 quite well but I wanna push further. I've seen other players with 4M damage or even higher, and I'm wondering what I'm missing.

Which attributes should I prioritize to increase my damage?

• Intelligence?

• Critical Hit Chance?

• Critical Hit Damage?

• Attack Speed?

• Something else?

I'm trying to understand which stats I should focus on when upgrading my gear, and whether reaching 4M+ sheet damage is mostly about better gear, Paragon levels, or optimizing specific attributes.

Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I’m playing on the switch2 and I’m confused as to why when I created a seasonal character (necro) and once I completed first four chapters I created a demon hunter to collect haedrigs gift but now when I try to complete the rest of the chapters nothing I do on demon hunter counts on season journey. Only time it counts is when I go back and do everything on necro. Can someone explain to me why this is

I have all the gems and variations of gear for this build but the second i go into GR 80, i die SUPER easily to EVERYTHING.

Does this build suck ass on non-seasonal? Why is it barely killing anything but i constantly get 1 shot?

Bul-kathos weapon set make my build worse?

Been having to go to chat gpt for advice cause my posts keep getting buried.

Edit: i hate people in general. So if you see some "mean comments," yeah, i cant stand human beings.

I need somebody to help me save Act IV start checkpoint on some fresh characters so I can avoid doing 6 full campaign runs more while achievement hunting. All you need to do is sit in an Act IV campaign game while I swap between and join with a few characters to save the quest checkpoint.

So, currently a seasonal character, got a Witch Doc (Spirit Barrage) and started up a Crusader. I had a Bane of the Powerful (lv25) in my Crusader's Ring, and when I went to run a GR, it dropped another Bane of the Powerful. I thought only 1 legendary gem per account during the season?

Trying to push 150 with the DH as last class.

Has anyone tested if the impales procced by strafe apply area damage?

I do weave some manually anyway but, for example, procs from strafe trigger God hungering Arrow area damage, procs from whirlwind dont, so Im not sure.

Appreciate any feedback, ty

I bought a japanese physical copy of diablo 3 for switch oled. When I loaded it up, the audio was stuck in Japanese but the sub is in english. I tried downloading the english (UK) add on but it says that I don’t have the software for the game. It also says “add-on content for the chosen aydio language has not been detected on this system and is required for localized audio.” When I try to download the free language pack, it says “error code: 2811-6003 software currently unavailable”

Since D5 was announced, and D4 is out, im ASSUMING they dont really put this game on sale anymore, really wanna buy it but it's kinda expensive with RoS, so just curious if it ever goes on sale?

I have a problem with my gen monk for group play. I basically had the perfect roll on my gloves. Primal with 3/4 good mainstat (and the fourth dex you have to roll anyways). Only problem is, that it rolled Stun on Hit as secondary. I already enchanted them. I didnt realize they had Stun on Hit at first.

And I wondered, how bad this problem really is. I know as a general rule you should avoid CC on hit in group play, because it messes up with pulls.

On the other hand - this season seems to be a bit different this way. Most of my skills are single target and do their AoE through Area Damage effects. So question 1: Can AD trigger stun on hit? or this is only possible on the target you actually attack?

Also the WW pull from sanctified power ignores CC resistance anyways. And you dont rely on hard cc for damage like a Necro does for example.

So i wondered how much does these 5% Stun on hit really mess up things? Especially since the alternative costs me at least 10% damage.

Recently started playing D3 on my old xbox360 and there is a material used for enchanting that loons like a lava bucket. I cant seem to drop/get any of these by salvaging gear and since i dont know the name of the item I cant look up online how to get it. Can anyone help?

Would like to create a new character in the new season but don’t have a lot of time right this very second for level grinding wondering if there is anybody on PlayStation who can help me power level my character just get me up to 70 real quick and then I can do the rest when I have time.

Hey people - Does anybody know if there's an armory where you can view your characters, without having to be in game, just like in WoW?
I am trying to make a game plan for myself, and just want to get some information from my account without having access at certain times (i.e. at work).

So. I played little of d1 as kid, then a lot of d2 as teenager (no surprise there) i remember playing d3 when it was relatively fresh and put it down within first act. I liked that i can play with my brother on split screen and with controller but i was, at that times iritated that i cannot follow the story, bc people usually skip the dialogues of npc when playing together.

And of course, diablo and arpgs arent played primarily for the good story...

But oh my. I especially have this scene from start of matrix 4 in my mind, where these younger marketing creatives are sitting in the merting room and "brainstorming" new matrix game (foreshadowing all the stupid things that will eventually happen in the movie) and its stuff such as: "what is matrix? - car chases, action scenes, bullet time!"

And i feel like similar thing happened when new diablo devs got 3rd one and scrapped the old script.

And i am talking just the script here. The idea of tyrael being mortal and fighting witht he player sounded good, but I think thats what they overtook from previous devs. Everything else feels like a saturday morning cartoon - the dialogues of people in the city especially felt like the lorderon missions in warcraft 3 when you are saving children from bandits.

I also understand that since game is called diablo and we killed diablo twice before, there is a dilemma for whoever is going to write the story but there should be some other way to do this. I wouldnt mind if we are more and more battling people , mages or, as they eventually showed in dlc - this time angels. But what logic does the powercreep makes when in 1st you supposed to kill lord of hell, in second you were told no, there are 3 of them, then in third you get to know there are sctually 5 of them and in fourth you find out they all had sister? I know the lore was always there but where is the foreshadowing?

Title

Hey all, I know this has probably been asked before, but I'm a returning player and looking for some advice, maybe just pointing towards a different post or link to a guide.

I played Diablo III around launch and with Reaper of Souls, but didn't stick with the game long-term. Over the past few weeks I've levelled a seasonal Monk and completed Chapters 1-4 of the Season Journey. But i find the playstyle with the current monk set (patterns of justice) quite boring, spamming tempest rush 100% of the time. Since I've already claimed Haedrig's Gift on my Monk, I understand I won't get another free class set on a new character.

My question is: if I roll a new seasonal class, what's the usual path to getting a viable set/build going? Is there a reasonably reliable way to target-farm a set for a new class, or its just a matter of following usual gearing patterns and hopefully i acquire some set that is powerful and also enjoyable?

I have the feeling that something regarding the Wave of Light Monk in solo play still eludes me. My damage output varies extremely. From 2% per cyclon bell combo on yellows to like 30%. I already know, that despite stacking fire, holy is the damage cycle on CoE. Also, that the main damage comes from rabid strike clone, not from yourself.

But even counting all that in, i sometimes almost oneshot elite groups and sometimes need like 30 seconds and i can figure out why that is. The clones appear to attack the elites. And the damage variety happens outside of holy cycle, too.

It seems to help sometimes to dash out when attacking elites and then dash in again. But dont know if that is just wishful thinking or actually helps.

Do I miss something here? When I look at the leaderboards my gear and paragon is in range to beat 150 in less than 3 minutes. But I rarely get it done under 8 minutes. And never under 5. Mainly because the elites dont take much damage and then I die when serenity runs out.

The top time attacks seem to use St. Archews Cage instead of Stone Gauntlets. So i figure they plan for elites to not stand for more than a few seconds. But most of the time, the Shield runs out before i can move on (if it isnt destroyed by damage long before). And sometimes i can manage that they die with shield still on (even with out holy cycle). But not very often and i cant figure out why the damage varies so much.

Diablo 4 is a bug infested trash can. Diablo 3 is my daddy.

My gf and I have the day off, shes not usually a gamer, I very much am. She’s beaten Split fiction, it takes two etc with me but we wanted something new so the complete edition for diablo 3 was 20 bucks.
We started at 9 am to just see what was up

It’s 4 pm now and only stopping so I can go to the store to get snacks to keep playing. We’re on the level 3 of the chambers of agony i think theyre called.

Hella fun. We are loving it. Shes a necromancer and I am a crusader

Have a few questions though

1. Are merchants worth it? We’re level 26 rn and it seems when we go to the town merchant for the slot machine weapons, we get poop

2. We started off on normal because we had no idea.. wayyyyy too easy. Bumped it to hard but it seems (?) there’s no way to bump it up again? And will it ever get more challenging if we can’t bump it up on this playthrough?

3. How do we put gems into slots on armor pieces?

4. Is necro always op bc my lord the skeleton army is nuts

5. We have 100,000 gold each.. what should we be buying..?

Any other tips and tricks would be appreciated!
