they're doubling the total stash size, and each season will give you a free one...but I hadn't heard anything yet that you couldn't just buy them all on day 1.

 

[sweenish]

My information was a little off.

You can buy one more for gold right away. You'll have to play 4 seasons to unlock the rest, 1 per season.

 

[PClark99]

A stash upgrade.

Some extra tabs will be buyable with gold out of the gate. Then you have to play the next few seasons to unlock one additional tab each until you hit the max.

I may run 1 more season to get another stash tab but I don't think I will do it 4 more times.

You love stash tabs. I got on the PTR yesterday, but couldn't get a game started.

 

[sweenish]

I think they've hopefully finally buffed everything enough that I will follow the meta a lot less.

Hopefully the hotfixed buff to the Earth set allows it to run 50's and up to 60.

Same with Marauder for DH. I enjoy those sets, and kind of want to have fun again.

At least I don't hate UE. Kind of hate HoTA.

What I really hate is how few act mats and DB's I have. I look forward to a farm DH or monk after the season ends. I have Shenlong's, but one piece is in seasons.

Since Invoker's is the only set I don't have that's being given away in S5, I think I'm going to play a Crusader along with everyone else and get Invoker's.

How much season play are we going have in AT? I want that extra stash tab.

 

[ChairShot]

Extra room FTW!!!!

 

[Aristotelian]

I'm happy about the stash size increase...I tend to destroy everything I don't need, I got a mara's amulet earlier this season and didn't even think to re-roll it in the cube (it was terribly rolled).

I did that with a chantodo's wand, got an ancient one with decent damage, and easily destroyed grift 60 now. I don't tend to play smart that way - and now I think I'll become one of these hoarders that just holds onto ancient sets in their entirety waiting for them to be buffed, nerfed, re-worked, then buffed again.

Happy Thanksgiving to all my D3 cohorts.

Happy thanksgiving

I'm playing a LOT of Diablo on the PS4 with my brother. I started another Crusader without too much expectations since I played a lot of this class on the PC.

Well, yeaterday I completed a lot of stuff with the Crusader and it's rocking like I would never expect the Crusader to rock.

My Skill set is like that:
- Justice+Burst
- Blessed Hammer+Thunderstruck
- Provoke+Charged Up
- Falling Sword+Part the Clouds
- Laws of Valor+Invincible
- Akarat's Champion+Hasteful

My Lightning damage bonus is +53%

My Passives:
- Fervor
- Holy Cause
- Finery
- Blunt

My Cube powers:
- Weapon = 100% AS on Blessed Hammer
- Armor = When Blessed Hammer hits 3 or fewer enemies it's cost is completely refunded
- Jewelry = My hits regenerates me (shitty and need to find something better ASAP)

Yesterday I was damn happy cause I completed the Light Set (+750% damage on Blessed Hammer and +500% damage on Falling Sword) and also got Focus to complete the Ring duo (Restrain/Focus)...

My Crusader is a machine of pure destruction that burns Wrath like there's no tomorrow but thatnks to the great synergy from the Light set and Blessed Hammer+Provoke I can replenish my Wrath pretty quickly.

I really love the synergy from the Set and the skills, those hammers with +100% attack speed is ridiculous on bosses since I can cast it for free thanks to the Power that refund the cost when 3 or fewer enemies are hit.

I think we're now Torment 7 and we're near T8, just need to farm some more Ancient pieces.

 

[ChairShot]

kinda slow nowadays?

Everyone playing Fallout or Battlefront?

 

[darkewaffle]

Season burnout. Just wait til the next one starts with some new carrots to chase lol. Not real interested in a new season myself but if playing it unlocks some new stash tabs I feel like I'll at least do that much, whatever the requirements are.

 

[lupi]

Even trying to find public groups not so great over last couple of weeks. Have a hard time getting GR groups to finish off my gems cause these idiots keep putting ridiculously high GR levels at start and people starting dropping after a minute or so when stuff just doesn't melt before you anymore.

 

[digiram]

Yeah, I'm burnt out and playing FO4 on PC, and some mp Halo and COD on the xb when friends are on there.

 

[sweenish]

I'm planning on going at S5, I want a crusader that can clear TX and all that jazz. My current ns sader just hasn't seen enough play time. It at least has full Roland, and all the right items minus the second piece of F + R.

I'm just largely "meh" about that sader. I'm hoping to hit the season hard, get Invokers and the necessary other items, and be able to run in the mid to high 50's at least.

I'll be splitting my time between D3, Xenoblade Chronicles X, and regular life though. I'll more than likely get Invokers and end up not having time.

 

[PClark99]

I am waiting for season to jump back in. I'm burnt out.

I still want to get to pl 1000 but I am just so bored right now it's not funny.

Fallout 4. They have taken too long to end the season and get the next patch out.

Kinda pointless now, knowing the changes that are around the corner.

 

[pandemonium]

Yeah, catching up on single player games while waiting on 2.4.

I'm not nearly as high, but I was getting a bit tired of it. After a year of having it sitting on my computer, I've finally turned to SC2 WoL...

Also, I don't know if anyone else has seen any problems, but since I sicked W10 on my desktop, it seems like D3 is occasionally very glitchy (kind of like delayed response and delayed graphics). Perhaps it is a sign that my hardware is old and not super-dooper W10 friendly. But that doesn't matter too much, I was planning on probably building a new mid-range gaming box next year. I've gotten a little over 4 years out of this particular SB i3 (and 5.5 years from my HD5770).

 

[pandemonium]

The problems I've always had was the tremendously poor performance in certain zones (e.g. swamp) and with a lot of effects going (WD and Wizard AE), but those are common issues with a lot of machines, regardless of their potency or components brand.

I hadn't seen any particular issues with my W10 install, but that was with a brand new system I built (socket 2011v3 - 5820k, GTX970, 32GB 2400mhz DDR4, Intel 750 NVMe SSD). I'd imagine that it could be hardware related for you.

As an aside, the delayed response you're mentioning: do you have V-sync on? If so, turn it off and set maximum foreground FPS to 1 less than your display's refresh. V-sync kills response times (AKA input lag) on most graphics engines and D3 is definitely one of them that suffers from what I've seen.

 

[Aristotelian]

I recently cleared grift 65 solo on my season wizard, at paragon 610 or so - jumping up into the top 300 leaderboard for wizard (EU). I am not really able to farm paragon, because I've seen how pros do it (grifts, exp gear, multiplicative etc, some farm exp pools before doing so, can speed grift 65+) and paragon just flies up, so I feel like I'm wasting time.

And leaderboards are dominated by paragon levels, in addition to botters who have limitless amounts of equipment to keep trying for near-perfect items.

So, yeah - a bit disheartened at some point, feeling as a primarily solo player I hit a ceiling, and would only be able to chase top 100 wizard leaderboards if I join a very serious clan.

I had tried turning V-sync off, but I had set the max foreground FPS to something like 80 (refresh rate is 60) and didn't see any tangible difference. I could take another crack at it with your suggestion.

Same here (burn out)... have not pushed solo GR yet have only done GR50. I should go for it just hate running them and failing.
Also running short on DB going to build a DB build and work on that.

 

[smackababy]

You guys still going on this game? Just fired it up again yesterday.
