...The reworked tal rasha set won't be retroactive, so I can finally dump all the tal rasha gear I'd saved and the other junk as well...
Question about the Paragon Utilisty skill called Area Damage:
Is this worth investing points in it?
Does it proc off Rend and Cleave Barabrian abilities?
I know that you have a flat chance of doing area damage off each attacks you do (is that still the case), my guess is that it's only affecting that stat?
I leveled up Cooldown Reduction first, then Area Damage.
Life on hit then gold if you got there ehehe.
I spent all my points in LoH since everything else was not giving me any bonus at all. Maybe plus Gold but I don't seem to convince myself it's a good place to spend those points...maybe when i'm Paragon 300+.
Cooldown Reduction...you mean Cost Reduction?
Cause if it was Cooldown i'd be all over that.
From what I've read on the bnet forums, it is only the Firebirds 2 piece bonus that will change (from +500 int to whatever it shows now). The six piece bonus will stay the same.
Or did you mean something else?
It's funny - I played a lot on my season wizard this weekend and hit paragon 80 or so (EU, pub games), and I found an ancient chantodo's with 2800 dps raw (with a slot). If I can find a rgift I can roll the socket to + damage, right, and then use the gift to add the slot again? With that alone my wizard on season seems much stronger than my normal one (with over 300 paragon). RNGesus, I know, but it's insane that with a weekend of playing I could have a better wizard than I have as my main and sunk hundreds of hours into.
Basically, I'm gearing towards firebirds on the season, and hope to level my gems like crazy (toxin, powerful, and zei's), then go back to the normal character and jump up in progression that way as well. The reworked tal rasha set won't be retroactive, so I can finally dump all the tal rasha gear I'd saved and the other junk as well.
Sorry to keep asking, but are there any regular EU players on here? As far as I know, the anandtech clan on EU is dead due to inactivity (spoke to Capuccino about this a while ago) but I'm always looking for other players to have fun with.
Ok, yesterday's runs were pretty great. Got some nice loot from Kadala and Rifts. Got an ancient Skorn, Ancient Bracers and Ancient Belt, all upgrades.
I played with my gear, stats and gems and I ditch 30% of my Toughness to get around 50% more Damage. But for that I had to dust many leg/set items I had in my chest, because that b**** Mystic was a b****, not great pieces though so it's not that bad of a loss.
I've gone from 660K/20M to 995K/14M.
I'm also starting the slow grind for better gear. I'll log tonight for a some time if I can stop player Darkest Dungeon lol...
nice damage increase.

Ah, the way it reads, I thought they removed the 6pc bonus.
Rhezuss is playing a barb so the first thing I would max is Area Damage... then Life on hit.
No it's still around, but considering most FB wizards didn't use a signature spell before, I don't know how much of a buff the set will actually be as adding a signature spell means removing some other spender or dropping a defensive or utility spell.
The changes to Tal's make it incredible both in terms of potential damage output and in terms of playability. FB set results in a rather bland style of play to me, where as Tal's promotes a lot more involvement in terms of managing cooldowns, buff stacks, and other aspects of the class, which if done well results in some massive damage potential, similar to what a DH can accomplish.
I bought reaper of souls this Sunday, and started back on my lvl 60 DH. Got to lvl 70, got to lvl 62 paragon today, and I'm feeling bored of this game already.
It feels like the game is just repetitive, doing bounties/rifts over and over again to get better items so that I can grind tougher rifts to gain better items, etc..
Any advice?
do it in a group.
