Re: Diablo 3

Game is getting boring. Takes too long to get any worthwhile gear so you can never have fun trying multiple builds and gear sets let alone play other classes. Will probably wait for changes in the future.

you could play hardcore with me and muirrir 8)

True, that might be the next thing I try once I feel like playing again.

Re: Diablo 3

Enchantress weapon epeen
Also she can't die.


Max dps buffed, 1.36 million sheet dps with 63% bonus arcane damage totaling 2.2 million edps. Still need a decent SoJ and Andy's for 40% more arcane damage, putting me right under the 115% max (don't have perfect rolls on weap or source or legendary bracers)
Have 27 second downtime on Archon with Evocation and Pure Power rune, it's getting very hard to get proper CDR gear that isn't a huge dps loss; I still have 3 slots that I can possibly get CDR on (can't get it on weapon sadly because the socket is too important).
Working now on just farming money and exp for my last 3 flawless royal topaz gems and maxing CDR from paragon.

p.s. bonus image, this is what happens when you get a goblin room like Choof posted, with conduit running. Surprisingly got no legendaries but like a dozen imperial gems, super worth.

Re: Diablo 3

Hi, Born's Furious Wrath rolls CDR and socket. I would assume that it's BiS for this build.

Been playing around with only a moderate amount of CDR, so that I'm not sacrificing much DPS but still getting archon up about twice as frequently. It seems to increase my farming rate, so I'm probably gonna roll with it. Especially with the new bracers I found that pretty much reset my CD entirely whenever I find a health relic. Makes killing some bosses really nice too, since I can perma archon against a few of them.

Re: Diablo 3

perma archon sounds really nice..

i've been looking into fire% skill builds for my barb (maximus, magefist, etc) and it looks pretty op

i'm thinking of playing monk too.. how do monks fare these days?

Max cdr (80%?) on a wizard is godmode, you'll hear from others that a frozen orb build is better, but It's ridiculously fun zooming around in Arch doing T1 rift farming really quickly.

And as for monks they currently have a really beast tier set, can't remember which. All of my monk friends....and barbs, dropped to play crusaders.

Re: Diablo 3

i think i'll be making a monk after i'm done gearing out my barb

need a shard of hate

Re: Diablo 3

Hi, Born's Furious Wrath rolls CDR and socket. I would assume that it's BiS for this build.

The obvious choice for Archon CDR is to use 2 piece Captian Crimson set bonus and 3 piece Born's. But in using the two, no matter how you do it (even if you use Ring of Royal Grandeur) you give up a really important DPS item and Vyr's 4 piece.
For example to get Captain Crimson you need to use the legs and boots in order to wear a Witching Hour, but then you can't use Vyr's set. For Born's, you need to use the chest and shoulders in order to use Gesture of Orpheus wand, but then you can't use Vyr's set. In each case, having Vyr's set trumps the 10% CDR because the flat 20 second reduction in CD from gaining the Pure Power rune is better than 10% CDR (only 12 second reduction)

For me, I'd rather have 20% more dps and a minor like 10 seconds wait between archons, but it's a choice you have to make for yourself.

My ideal set would be:
Andy's helm - arcane damage, int, AS and socket for diamond (can't roll crit but that's ok)
Moonlight Ward - arcane damage, int, crit, reroll attack speed to CDR
Born's shoulders
Born's chest - Born's is the better of the two 10% CDR set bonuses because it comes with the 2 piece %life bonus
Vyr's gloves - int, crit, crit damage, CDR. CDR is more important than attack speed in slots you can get it.
Strongarm Bracers - archon form melee has a built in tiny knockback, these are OP with archon. Roll arcane damage, crit chance.
Witching Hour belt
Vyr's pants
Vyr's boots - Disintegrate damage. The only place I get +skill damage because there's literally nothing else important to roll here. Very useful for when I'm not an archon.
Ring of Royal Grandeur - required to get both Vyr's and Born's because they share a slot. int, Crit, Crit damage, and CDR
Stone of Jordan - arcane damage, %damage to elites, int, and crit. Can't roll crit damage but the arcane and elite damage are better so that's just fine.
Gesture of Orpheus wand - arcane damage, socket. Have to choose between int and CDR in this slot, I'm not sure whether giving up mainstat is worth the 10% CDR. On my current want I went with mainstat over CDR, in the future I'd probably go the opposite.
Triumvirate - arcane damage, CDR

This gives Vyr's 4piece, one of the two 10% CDR sets, every item in the game with +arcane damage, and the most crit and crit damage you can get while wearing the sets.
It also gives you CDR from every slot that can have it except one ring.
