Diablo 3 - Gamepad Edition

[Wahz]

Remember now, that item is called Puzzle Ring, utterly useless. On Torment level "Normal" item drop is rare.

 

[Malo]

They're not useless, at least not anymore, I've had a few legendary and set items drop from them. DIfficulty is irrelevant, it's all about the area. The Act V Battlegrounds is the best place for normal drops, the dungeons before Adria as well.

Before they changed him, the counter would reset every time you zoned. Now the counter only resets if you leave the game. Puzzle rings often have decent stats so whilst it's not a particularly awesome affix to have in place of something else much better, it's a handy thing to have.

 

[dobwal]

Don't the weapon racks in the dungeons drop nothing but normals.

 

[Malo]

Correct. Battlegrounds has them everywhere.

 

[RenegadeRocks]

I think it's one of your legendary item feature

Goblin pick 13 Normal items (the white ones) for you and give out one Rare/Legendary item

OH wow ! i want this goblin ! How do I get it ? Random drop?

 

[Malo]

Yes the Puzzle Ring legendary drop. Not that rare.

hmmm....On a side note, the two legendaries that I got after Level 70 have both turned out to be useless . The rares I am using are much better than those legendaries.

Same here. I am finding some very useful rares and discarding some legendaries, but it always depends though.

I reached level 70, exploring every single nook and cranny in the map, by the time you are in the last part of the campaign when you have to go to where the ram is. -a very tough part, btw, both on Master and Torment-

Torment is a different kettle of fish, after trying it. My Demon Hunter is amazing on Master now, on Torment she is just fine, but yes, things aren't as easy anymore.

An article about what to do when you achieve level 70. I began Adventure Mode, it's quite fun.

Gotta give these level 70 builds a try, since my current approach is quite different.

Gotta add that in order to try those builds on console you have to choose elective mode, where you can set any skill to a button of your choice -thanks to Lefungus for the info :smile2: , I didn't know -.

On an different note, the new DLC Diablo 3 Reaper of Souls Infernal Pauldrons is available on the Xbox 360 and Xbox One marketplace right now.

I got it -it costs 5€ but I got it for free because I had some cash available thanks to the Xbox Rewards system, and I had 8€ saved, so...- and I'd wholeheartedly recommend it to you.

The Liber Canis Mortius is pretty awesome.

Hopefully 2.1 comes to consoles soon. Its quite good for PC. Great for solo players.

Hope also! We restart news players with my wife due to switch to PS4. May be a wait for 2.1 is better? We're on Destiny so not doing Diablo playtime actually.

 

[Malo]

Unless you've spent a lot of time in Ros (aka D3 UEE), there's a lot of playability before 2.1

 

[rekator]

We restart so we're long from Ros! ;-)

My ps4 downloaded an update last night. Looks like new stuff with that new dungeon , Cesspools, is in ! Will try tonight.

Yup, love the new presentation screen of the game now that patch 2.1 is out.

Now it's our time to thrive, console gamers. We are going to hit the jackpot and roll in money! :smile2:

PS3 and X360 Diablo 3 RoS players will gain double experience for a week.

Now for PS4 and Xbox One players, we will meet more Treasure Goblins for a week. :smile2:

The rate at which the Treasure Goblins and the items drop will be doubled.

Why do PS360 and current-gen get different rewards/incentives? Seems arbitrary. Especially as levelling doesn't appear as much a concern to D3 players as finding Sweet Loot.

It sounds a bit odd to me tbh, Blizzard are being cock-teasers, like in the saying, The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away...

Experience is fine and would help to develop Paragon levels but the loot will be ripe for the picking for PS4 and Xbox One owners, and that's important.

Blizzard also confirmed the other day that PS3 and X360 Diablo 3 players won't get the 2.1 patch. I don't know why, be it because of technical limitations or management decisions.

So finding a Ring of Royal Grandeur is a good thing right?

Well, I found one -general stats aren't much better compared to what I had already-, and the most interesting thing is that with it my Demon Hunter can combine a Dabetta's (Set item) (an item I don't have but want badly, sigh) hand crossbow and other Set items -Natalya's hand crossbow, which I have already- without needing the entire set two achieve certain accumulative bonuses from sets.

Anyways, I am sharing most of those experiences on the PC games forum, despite having the Xbox One's version.
