it isn't a cakewalk, but dont pretend you dont have it easier than melee, you focus on offense stats only, while melee have to entertain both im not saying it's easy as ranged, i had a DH that i gave up because i didn't like dying to a small farts, but it's exponentially cheaper to gear ranged compared to melee thats what i mean by complete utter bull****
Got my account back, and decided it's time for a change. I've tried WD with glass cannon build (46k dps, 12k hp), drain tanking (30k hp, 5.6k armor, 600 all resist, 1100 LoH, 10k dps), and balance specs in between, and it's just frustrating to farm with WD at the moment. Watching friend's wizard farming A3 with blizz/VH and teleport and I realized I'm just bad with WD. Rerolling a DH tonight and see what happens. I'll revisit WD again after next patch.
Some of these boss mods are just stupid. Invulnerable minions and shielded, especially on enemy types that can go untargetable half the time, like the a2 serpents, is just plain cheating. Nevermind that they can one shot you on top of that. And what's the purpose of reflect damage? At least in d2 it only worked on physical damage, but now there's no workaround. Supposedly you build up attack speed and low dps, but that's idiotic, I'm not going to have a MF setup and a reflect damage setup.
Wizard's been nerfed a couple of times now but they're still a powerful class. They just have so much more mobility than WDs. Cast animations are shorter, venom hydra = autotarget + dot + scout mobs outside of the screen, blizzard is aoe damage... God forbid you stutter kite with splinter darts and a herald/spearman/bird throws something at you. Instant Spirit Vessel trigger.
they are fixing act 2. The problem is the gear needed for Act 2 should be dropping in Act IV hell and Act I inferno. Instead it drops in Act 2 Inferno, so you have to just chain die to get the gear needed for the fights. They are adjusting the drops so that you can get the proper gear for Act 2 before you actually start playing it. I reached Hell and stopped until they release the new patch. I have been enjoying the Mists beta the past week or so.
Cool, thanks for that. Know when the next patch comes out? Also, IMO, they need to fix the Monk Ally. I don't mind when he auto attacks everything, except the treasure goblin. They need to make it so he wont attack the goblin until I attack first... I've lost the treasure fker way too many times because of that. Sucks for me, and sucks worse for everyone in my party.
Blizz said before the end of the month. Which probably means next week since I haven't heard anything about it coming this week. I agree with you on the Goblin thing. I have lost a few too because my helper hit him before I was ready.
Patch came at the worst time. I was off work this am for a few hours, and it's the last time I can play for the next few days... Wish the patch happened yesterday rather than this am...
