I miss my trapper that I RIPed in a stupid way. Was clearing everything easily, then I opened an unidentified yellow strongbox. Spawned the chaos beyond mobs right on top of me because of my lightning traps murdering most of the enemies in the strong box, there was also an exile and I was frozen because of the box. Dying because having to save scrolls of wisdom, felt nice. If I'd had identified it, I'd definitely would've gathered some souls for my (OP) Vaal Molten Shell, becayse Vaal Molten Shell + Life Leech is easy boss- and strongbox-killing. :P
I voted Gurnisson cause of his fucking bendy pike, I swear noone can roflcopter stab like he can.

Uh wat, you do know you can increase difficulty in Diablo? If I went Torment 6 with my ~Torment 2 char I'd die in 2-3 hits. I don't know what else you expect from difficulty settings. And ARPGs have always been about spamming AoE, considering there's millions of monsters coming at you. Needless to say, you're free to spec for single target damage as well.

Diablo 1 and 2 were definitely not about spamming AoE, far from it. Mana was much more precious resource back then and you actually had to use it wisely if you were low on potions. Now you can spam spells and when you run out of mana, you just have to spam more spells to get more mana...  :rolleyes:.
It just takes away all tactical aspects the previous games used to have.

Sure I could switch into single target melee hitting guy, but you know there's no skills for such in D3...

Yes instead of spamming attacks you spammed potions. Much more tactical.

I got a pretty high lvl summoner in Beyond, I usually pop a granite flask and use Vaal Summon Skellies, THEN open the box :D

ripped my dual totem withc at 59 lvl , anyway i'm ready now to the anti desync monster (autohotkey + script)
everytime i'm going to fight a boss or a large group of mobs , i press f3 and go with god.
This time i'm building a yolo 2h mace graundslammer marauder a bit different from the community build one.
It's superfun , no pussy totems that protects your ass , no mana (spamspam) , hatred aura , stack life and str with a bit life leech and life regen. see where i can go now , never did a single map in this league :(

When opening strongboxes, use Lighting warp. Cast it first, and during the delay you can open the box and get ported away safely, even if you get frozen and shit  :lol:

Darnit what is all this about strongboxes? I haven't played since May, but it's making me want to reinstall it.
How much has changed over the last few months?

Oh well seems like I ripped my new char yet again because of oos shit in beyond, was shieldcharging through a bunch of mobs when i suddenly get teleported back 3 screens and die to the docks firebreathing dogs in cruel. Was lvl 55 elementary templar with 1h mace and shield, molten strike, lightning shield, molten shell, shield charge. Time to take a long break yet again.

Shield charge is probably the desynciest skill in the game  :lol:

after cyclone :D

anyway .....download autohotkey and set a script to /oos very fast. i'm used to it and i'm glad it's not bannable because desynch shit is really bad in this game.


here's a script (start it before playing) :

Code: [Select]
;----Out Of Sync Macro---- ;My most used hotkey, writes /oos to get you out of sync. Watch out for not overusing in parties since it gets annoying to be teleporting everywhere, especially when you aren't the one in control :D.
^space::
Send {Enter}/oos{Enter}
return


;----Remaining---- ;Shows how many monsters are remaining in the instance.
^j::
Send {Enter}/remaining{Enter}
return

;----Itemlevel---- ;Shows the itemlevel of the currently selected item
^h::
Send {Enter}/itemlevel{Enter}
return


replace "space" "j" "h" with your preferred hotkeys.

this could save you often.

RIP'ed my 62 to a single hit from Vagan, just hours before he was nerfed.

Then RIP'ed my lvl 47 Arc+iron will marauder last night to some random desynch, I alt+f4'd with 2k hp left but not joy, relogged was in standard.

Time for full HP build Sweeper marauder, gonna tank and spank cause its only thing safe for me it seems :C

pls don't use sweep , it sucks endgame , better groundslam /molten strike / Infernal Blow in conjunction with heavy strike for bosses + leap slam to escape.

Ps: don't listen to me , do whatever you want  :mrgreen:
