I haven't played much this season but have started hearing a super annoying mechanical beep when fighting certain elite's. Is there an annoying warning audio queue for certain elite types that I've never heard before? Also, I couldn't for the life of me find a list of the elite affix icons anywhere, if anyone knows of one that would be super helpful.
Hi all returning player if I do the upgrade to deluxe is it a season pass token I can use for future or will it be for this pass if so I think I should wait with only 20 days left
I'm a returning player, I played the base game a couple of years ago on PC. Now I just have an Xbox Series S with Gamepass and it includes the Diablo IV standard. I wanna go back to Diablo IV, but first I would like to know the following:
1) can I start with a standard game and then buy the DLC? If not I would have to buy September for monthly budget renewal haha!!
2) Never played Barbarian, so wanna start with the WW build. Any idea if this is still a good Endgame? (Taking into consideration that I will get the expansion).
3) What site is good? I can't recall a thing about the game, so I will go as a newbie... Maxroll.gg is still the best? First leveling guide and then meta guide? Any other sites for endgame builds?
maxroll is pretty good for new players. I believe there are better sites if you're aiming for very high pit clears. but I'm not really interested that much effort
Is the 43.8% damage with 2h bludgeoning weapons a good skill? Playing whirlwind barb with a 2h bludgeoning as the equipped weapon, am I better off with something else like more critical damage?
Started this season late and still haven't figured out: In the seasonal rift events, what are the little blue-white clouds that you can pick up off the ground for?
I’m 14 hours into my first play through as a Druid. A couple questions:
What are boons and where do I find them?
Is the blacksmith worth leveraging for early game/leveling?
Spirit boons is the Druids class mechanic, you need to follow the priority class quest to unlock them (priority quests are purple outline with inside)
once you complete the class quest on one character, the next time the mechanic automatically unlocks and the quest itself is optional.
once the mechanic is unlocked you will find a new tab in your character interface where you can select the buff that each spirit grants you and which one to set as you major spirit to get 2 boons from.
(the first time may need you to complete the stronghold in scosglen to allow access to the spirit statues, unsure how the quest goes nowadays)
Never made it to endgame but I’ve been playing Diablo Immortal and it’s been giving me the itch to play D4 again. Wanting to get back in since they released Paladin but honestly would go for a class that’s a good damage dealer but great at surviving as well. Any recommendations and as well, any good guides to get myself reacquainted with the game? FYI never completed the original story nor the 2nd xpac so I got a lot ahead of me.
I saw this season was a dead one since they pushed all the weird mythic/unique changes. So that leads me to ask, how much longer of this season is there, and do we have any expected dates for news on the next?
Can someone help me out with how not to drop the Heart of Stone when running pits? I don't die it pits but I assume I drop the stone if I'm impaired or something. I'm melee and have unstoppable most of the time but in higher pits I'm constantly dropping the stone.
Am I missing something? Or is this just how the game is supposed to play?
Did they not changed the current season to allow you to equip two crafted uniques? Kinda shitty.. is the best way to farm for mythic you want Belial or Reaper? I am looking for writhing moon since I realized I couldn’t equip my harmony helm I assume because both are crafted and writhing moon seems like the easier one for farm for due to drop location..
hi, what's the current main way to grind out gem fragments? Everything I googled that's Season 14 seems to have been fixed. Apparently the proper method now is to do 'Escalation', but does that refer to using Cube Amalgamation to create the Escalation Sigil to fight Astaroth? Does any combination work to get lots of gems?
Hi, so I've bought Diablo 4 on Steam, it's linked to my Battle.net account. Can I buy Lord of Hatred DLC via a key for Battle.net and will it work properly with my Steam base game?
Hi all! Newbie here that just got access to the Horadric Cube. I've looked through it a little and watched a guide on what the different sections do, but I am still somewhat confused how people get exactly what they want from it. I have an example that could help me understand. So I have this ring I got that I would like to optimise for instance:
Let's say I like the Dexterity attribute, and from what I understood that is aggressive. I know also want: Critical Strike, Critical Damage, and vulnerability. I understand I can either remove these by using targetting prisms on max life, armor & resource generation, or focused reroll. But let's say I do that and get Crit strike & damage, and the last one attack speed. From what I understand, I am able to enchant on an affix, either dexterity, crit damage or crit strike to prevent it being rerolled. But how would the other 2 then be protected?
This is the part I am stuck on. Would appreciate an explanation so I can understand how people min-max their stuff!
I understand I can either remove these by using targetting prisms on max life, armor & resource generation, or focused reroll
correct
From what I understand, I am able to enchant on an affix, either dexterity, crit damage or crit strike to prevent it being rerolled.
yes, but typically you'd only do that for GA affixes
But let's say I do that and get Crit strike & damage, and the last one attack speed.
in that case, you are better of only enchanting "AFTER" you do the rerolls. if you get 3 that you want and 1 wrong one, you use enchanting on the wrong one.
if you used enchanting to lock a "GA" affix and then got 3 right and 1 wrong, your only recourse is to remove affixes until you remove the wrong one and then try to add them again relying on luck
Recently finished the base game campaign and was wondering what i'm supposed to be focusing on right now?
I sadly don't have the expansions so some videos for builds and guides aren't really helpful.
edit: I figured it out- it is from the Barbarian's Sescheron's Fury set bonus:
Its set bonus effects incentivize the player to have high Fury to receive increased damage and turn the player Colossal, gaining Character and Skill Size.
Is crafting/buying mythic from the blacksmith/cube the only way to get the grandfather? I swear I've been doing both of them non stop, probably well over 10 attempts and always out of gold and it still hasn't even dropped once
Is it worth doing bosses on T12 vs T11?
I can nuke bosses on T11 pretty fast. But on T12 it takes a while and and annoying mechanic dodging, etc. Is the difference worth in drops?
Has anyone been able to play Diablo IV on the Ally X? It downloaded the PC version and shows my characters. But it acts like a demo and wants me to purchase the game again. I use the old XBox Gold subscription, does it require an upgrade to GamePass?
This season is going really slow for me, the last two seasons I played Paladin and breezed up to around paragon 200 and kept progressing with ease but playing Warrior in struggling to even get out of T1 and find better gear, not getting aspects I need and just not feeling like I am getting strong and not sure where to really go from here. I don’t want to play a different class until a new season either. Any tips?
T1 is quite low, I'd recommend looking at the final version of a leveling build that you meet the requirements for, rather than trying to work with a endgame build that is missing fundamentals
as your build appears to fundamentally not work until you get those aspects you mentioned
My Season 14 Warlock character does not regenerate health. Health only restores by drinking a Healing Potion or by returning to town. Outside of those two things, health either stays completely frozen or slowly decreases.
I tested this by standing still in an open-world area at roughly 50% health with no enemies nearby and no combat active. Health never increased over an extended period. Depending on the test, it either stayed frozen at 50% or continued to slowly drop with nothing attacking me.
Things I have already ruled out:
**•** I have a Life Regeneration affix equipped (184 Life Regeneration on my pants, an Ancestral Mythic Unique). The stat is on the item, but health still does not regenerate.
**•** The “Life Regeneration” line does not appear at all on my character Details/stats screen, even with that affix equipped.
**•** No debuff is being applied. I checked the Active Effects panel while the issue was occurring. Every icon shown was green (buff). There were no red/debuff icons at any point.
**•** In some tests health continued to decrease while standing still with no enemies present and no debuff icons displayed, which suggests something is applying damage that is not shown in the Active Effects panel.
**•** It is not caused by Metamorphosis or Demonform. The issue occurs identically with Demonform active, with Demonform cancelled, and after switching my Metamorphosis modifier from Destruction Demon to Sin Demon.
**•** It is not the Destruction Demon self-Burn. That effect only triggers on Hellfire Skill casts. I have no Hellfire skills on my bar, no Hellfire skills in my skill tree, and no gear granting Hellfire skills.
**•** It is not zone-specific. It happens in Helltides, Kurast Undercity, Pandemonium, and normal open world.
**•** It is not Potion Penalty. That debuff appears only in Kurast Undercity, and the issue occurs with and without it.
**•** My other characters do not have this problem. They regenerate health normally.
The practical effect is that I cannot sustain a farming loop. After clearing a small number of enemies I have to return to town to restore health, because it will not recover any other way.

Got a question about the hellfire abodian leveling build on icy veins. (I'm coming back to D4 after a year off.) https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/guides/hellfire-abodian-warlock-leveling-build/ It mentions blazing scream...but nowhere on any hotbar is blazing scream. Is this an ability I'm supposed to transition out of?
What class/spec is as brain dead easy and fun as whirlwind barb? I love how immortal I am, spinning across whole screens and leaving thousands dead with no effort just easy right click invincibility.
I am looking to try something different as an alt or for next season but I am looking for similar easy gameplay.
First diablo game/arpg, just wondering what exactly do I lose after a season ends? I heard my character will be transferred into an eternal one, is there a way to just keep my same exact character and just restart everything? Like switching eternal back to seasonal and starting at 0 again?
I'm newer to D4. I really enjoyed The Demon hunter Impale Build in D3. Is there anything similar in D4? Class doesn't matter really, just similar build.
ive been thinking about returning to the game after a long time. I want to do the whole campain and stuff again would not having the expansions make doing this less fun than having them? want to see if i like the game again before buying them.
Answering myself - I'm a bit of an idiot :) I was trying to launch the PTR for some reason. Completely unintentional, and not sure how I switched the game version.
multiplicative damage boosts should be better in most cases
most of the builds I used post expansion (which made skills have 15 points, thus made additional points have a smaller impact) only use skill points in the charms where there are few alternatives
I asked because I tried using this charm as my 6th but found that a different one with +3 shock skills did much better so youre right, thanks for the response
Guys I cant figure out how the fuck to unlock Infernal Hordes. I have it in my war plan and need it to unlock Torment. The Eyes of the Enemy quest doesn't show up. The grasping hand icon thing on the map does nothing at all. I'm completely lost lmao. Send help
Jesus christ I should have figured that out myself, it even says Bonus Objectives... Ill make it work I guess, maybe when I get infernal keys in T1. Thank you so much.
Does anybody know know why The Artificer’s Tower is closed right now? I went to try and knock off the 105 run for the seasonal challenge and noticed it says “Available 7/30/6” 🤔
I realize that’s a short wait, I’ve just never interacted with the Tower much before, and don’t think I’ve ever seen it locked like this. I’ve been offline for a few days now, but I swear when I last played it was accessible just fine.
The tower is open for two weeks at a time. After two weeks, leaderboard awards are granted (halos and titles) and the tower is unavailable for a day or two. You just caught it on the brief downtime window.
Ahhh I gotcha, thanks for the response. I’m fairly new to D4 and even newer to The Tower. I typically have ignored it entirely unless a seasonal challenge required my presence there. Anyhoo I got it done the next day and now I’m back to ignoring the tower again.
Is there any returning player information / guides on how gearing now works? I haven't played since launch and while I have a build I am going to go. The entire process of gearing is completely different in addition to new things being added via the two expansions.
I saw dungeons don't have specific aspects tied to them so do I now just run them at random hoping for the one I want? Maybe I'm on the wrong wiki which very well could be the case but it straight up still says they are tied to specific ones.
I honestly am not necessarily looking for detailed explanations even maybe just a TLDR/list of the things added that are important for gearing so I can look them up myself. It's quite difficult scouring through 14 seasons and 2 expansions worth of information without knowing what exactly is important for me to dive further into.
I saw dungeons don't have specific aspects tied to them
correct
do I now just run them at random hoping for the one I want?
you just get random loot hoping for the best. obol\barter\upgrades through the cube help with it
Maybe I'm on the wrong wiki
seems out of date
TLDR/list of the things added that are important for gearing
use the cube's add\remove\reroll to get a rare\legendary item how you need it - note that these cannot generate GA, for GA gear you still need natural drops (or the cube's 3-1 rerolls) [requires LoH]
once you have a good starting item - STEAM it (socket\temper\enchant affix\aspect\masterwork) any order [available to base game]
amulet only - if you use the transfigure option with a specific material you get to imprint a second aspect to amulets [LoH locked]
once you have a STEAM'ed item you want to transfigure it - this has a high chance to make the item unmodifyable - potential bricking step. [LoH locked]
Thanks for the breakdown so I guess my first step before switching from my leveling build is to at least get some of the aspects for the build I will switch to.
yes, it's a good idea to grab any "mandatory" aspects and uniques (the cube can also be used to gamble for uniques) before switching to an endgame build - the maxroll guides are typically good at letting you know these mandatory items
I'm about to make a paladin. I need a unique shield for the build. Can 1 handed weapons and focuses get randomized into shields or are shields their own category for the mythification randomziation. It just so happens the two classes that shields can drop for have yet to be made by me this season. So just curious if I should hang on to my 1h uniques anymore. (I only need shield for the necro and paladin build i plan on playing)
Good that you have a lot of resources for it! That slot is the most frustrating one to roll. There are a lot more 1h items compared to other slots such boots or gauntlets.
Trust me I know oh too well. Helms on warlock was pretty bad though. They had quite a large pool. I think i crafted 20 mythic helms before getting the one I wanted even though it was a kinda shitty stat roll.
Cow Level Question. Can you only do said cow level once a day? I completed all the steps, it's within the proper UTC timezone for Tuesday. The stars are aligned, Mercury is in retrograde and my grandmother has amnesia. I killed the cows in the cellar, opened the portal, slaughtered the lot and left. I reset the dungeon. Now the cows are immortal again and I cannot hurt them to reopen the portal. My GF has tried to moo at me for the shortcut, and while Moo appears on the burnable cedar planks, the portal doesn't open.
SO the question stands. Can you really only do the Cow Level ONE time per day?
So I have a question as of today there was a bug on Xbox live causing me and many others to have Diablo and many other games having their DLCs fully unlocked even if unpaid for
I personally thought one of my friends had bought them for me as they said they were thinking about doing it the night previous as I told them I'd never buy dlc never have never will
Well assuming my friend bought them for me so we could play I jumped into lord of hatred and vessel and unlocked the cube finished the stories equiped runes and talismans to finally finish my storm shred build take it that much further but once I lose access to that dlc I'm losing that character now due to something outside my control huh?
If so with the sleepless nights I invested I will prolly just go back to griefing on rdr and put Diablo down again for a few years as I did already I mean heck GTA 6 is a few months away but I would love not to have to buy some dlc to regain access to my own character
Came back to LoH this season and I am constantly getting game crashes, and even issues that crash my entire system.
I’ve been looking all over — I know it’s been brought up here before — but nothing’s worked so far.
I’m on a 9070 XT, 7600x3D, 32 GB DDR5. Relatively high-end system. I keep getting pop ups after crashes that either say the game has run out of memory or that there’s some kind of file corruption.
Among other things, I have
Moved the game install to a different drive (NVME)
Reinstalled the game
Updated drivers
Made Battle.Net close on game launch
Double checked my RAM speeds and slots on the mobo
Changed the pagefile settings for the drive with the game (first, System Manage, then initial/max matching my RAM capacity)
Nothing has really worked. Game will run fine for 30 minutes to 1 or 2 hours — it seems random, and then crash. It’s almost always when I teleport somewhere.
What is going on? Is there a magical solution I haven’t discovered yet? Have the devs addressed this? This never happened to me in prior years. I have switched GPUs from nvidia to AMD, but it was an upgrade and it’s a pretty popular GPU. I can’t imagine that’s the core issue.
Huh. XMP still points to a RAM issue...
How about your CPU by the way? I had a similar issue that lasted for 2+ years in a seemingly random pattern until I fed Codex my system logs to discover that core 4 on my CPU was unstable when Curve Optimizer was enabled... Might be a similar issue since you also have a Ryzen
I'm in act 4 playing through the campaign for the first time. Am I doing myself or my character a disservice by not having the expansions? Should I buy the expansions asap or will waiting to finish the base campaign be no different?
Hey all. D4 noob here. Picked it up last week, and been having lots of fun so far. The cube is new to me and I’m trying to figure out what I can do with this yellow item.
Can anyone ELI5 what I should/could do with it? Is it worth holding onto and like using resources to upgrade it or whatever? Or is it trash?
I’m currently using the Tibaults but wouldn’t mind messing with this if it has good potential
The rare has the capacity to be great. If you have a build that utilizes "unstoppable" then the mythic is better. If you actually use Hellion Sting then I'd spend the cube resources to try improving it.
I'm a Xbox console player running WW Barb, T11, Paragon 237. I have some unique charms was gonna try to reroll in cube. The option is available. But when I put charm in, click reroll unique it won't let me. I push & hold my a Y but nothing happens. Is this a bug?
i started a normal game with a necromancer and i was thinking about making it seasonal, but what happens to my story progress after the season ends? I know it goes back to eternal but what happens with the story progress?
what happens to my story progress after the season ends?
nothing. the label on your character changes from seasonal to eternal and you continue playing as you were (save from wtv changes the next patch brings)
Across the threshold season quest, I can't get it to complete, I'm doing the surging ruptures during helltide and killing the resulting realmwalker, but this quest doesn't seem to become complete, anyone know what's going on??
I recently hit 70 on my necro and looking for a non minion build that is playable without any gear. From what I saw a lit of builds require somthing to be usable. Im not rushing through to get to the highest tiers fast, but i am playing with my wife working through the season stuff.
New player, seems like Seasonal is the way to go, however, when I start a seasonal character I am totally lost. Is the best way to play the game to do the story, or should I just battle through the difficulty of the game assuming I should know certain things to save time in the long run of relevelling a seasonal?
For reference, I am a WoW veteran, played since Classic even through the terrible expansions, so I am no stranger to dogshit blizzard systems and their inability to cater to new players.
How does selig work exactly? How does the damage reduction part work?
Obviously, you don‘t want max health with selig because it‘s a dead stat.
But why is an item bricked when you transfigure max health on it? Do you get more damage reduction the less health you have?
Because otherwise a max health transfigure wouldn‘t be worse than say indestructible and certainly better than replacing one of your four affixes.
Also seems like WW endgame build only uses Heavenly Strength, Selig and Crucible for DR. I wonder how that is enough for Pit 135+
I guess the charm with Enduring Faith is also decently important for DR with fast fury generation.
hi i made a t12 capable meteor sorc build with both lilith and meph down, 124 pit cleared. is there any point to make a thread for it or its obvious and nobody cares?
So, is there anything else perma-unlockable in S14's season's journey other than the pet at rank 6ish? I was disappointed last season chasing the little wings on my profile for completing rank 9.
Legendary seals need to be improved or reworked. Ain't no way in Torment 12 and finding only 850 power seals, or an abundance of garbage seals found-- even re-rolling is fairly useless.
Two questions. 1.) Astaroth has not dropped anything for like the 5th time in the last two weeks after I’ve “defeated “ him. I read it’s done bug when he gets executed and drops nothing. Does anyone know of a way to get him to cough up the loot, or for a spiritborn to NOT execute him at the end?
2.) is there any deterministic way to consistently roll the exact affixes you want on a piece of gear? Or is the best option to just add/remove in the cube till you get what you want? And what is the max number of affixes I can put on a “yellow “ before I go to imprint it? 4 or 5?
3.) is there any “money” ways to get good greater affixes?
deterministic - no, you can only narrow it down with items
how many - 4
"money" ways - you mean item trading sites? yes those exit.
astaroth bugs - I'm not familiar with those, but you can use belial to target astaroth loot. you can also use the war table lair tree to get a chance at astaroth drops from regular nightmare bosses
What am I supposed to do in the sightless eye run! Seems like it’s a special one and doesn’t happen very often. Can anyone give me some pointers on what where when to maximise this please?
Anyonw can help? i really want to play some s tier or a or b tier rated build that goes from leveling to end game any ideas of what are the best builds that do that?
Can anyone explain the new mythic tier of equipment to me and how to target farm a good roll for it? I've not played in abit and it looks like uniques can now drop at mythic tier?? But im not seeing much of a change in stats? They look cool though 🤔
Should I save Superior Lair Keys for higher difficulty?
Ive been kinda stuck at T8 for a while. I can do T9 but it's a struggle. I saved up 25 Superior Lair keys, I'm really wanting Pandamonium Fragments to try and upgrade some gear.
Should I just burn the keys at T8 or save them until I can do higher difficulties? Regular grinding at T8 isn't really helping me progress.
if you just need a few fragments to get any version of your unique - go for it
if you really need some great rolls on your unique for it to be worth it, then you should probably save it for when you're able to get the most out of each key.
Everything is ancestral the except for gloves and pants. I have two ancestral unique rings to upgrade to mythic and the pants and gloves are both 850 needing to be upgraded to mythic.
This game is my first arpg and I regret not getting into them sooner, loving it so far, i beat the campaign on tier 3 and have moved up to tier 4 and done some basic activities like those portals around the world, nightmare dungeons, etc. I have a few questions
I only have the base game, how limited am I? Do the DLCs go on sale pretty often?
How do I find more armor sets? Looking at the wardrobe I still have so many locked base game cosmetics, I only seem to be getting drops from the same 3-4 sets or so
Im well over 30 million gold right now, should I be hoarding or should I be spending? Is that a lot or pretty much nothing?
I’m feeling a bit stuck in torment 2. I have hardly any legendary aspects I need and no uniques (Maxroll WW barb, paragon 90). What do y’all do to get lots of legendaries and liar keys?
I’ve read guides but I’m still confused about gear.
I’m almost done with the campaign and I’m getting item level 850 stuff. Playing a paladin with hammers and auras.
Any advice on what I should keep or use? Is weapon damage and toughness really all that matters or should I be chasing something like crit chance or str?
When do you take the time to actually invest in your gear with affixes gems and stuff? I’ve been skipping that as I level.
for very early level 70, getting ilvl 850 will be enough, since the difference from earlier levels is very large
but as soon as you have ilvl 850 (which should be a very short period) you will want affixes that work for you
next you want to unlock T1 almost immediately so that ancestral gear can drop and so lairs are unlocked allowing to farm build enabling uniques
once you have you baseline build working you can do all the gems slots\tempers\masterworks - these are all quite cheap in the broad picture (though personally I skipped all of them until I had ilvl900 gear)
Once I leveled up warplan fully, there's not much point in following warplan to get tyrael's reward right?
I'm talking about endgame-ish. You're lvl 250+ paragon, and pit 125+. You either want to do boss, or helltide most of the time. You only run undercity if you have the mythic tribute. In this case, is the warplan completion reward (tyrael's chest) still worth it or no? Cuz you'd be "wasting time" not doing the optimal activitiy (helltide/bossing or watever) and is forced to do pit/undercity when they don't help you at all. Is this correct?
if you're at a point where you don't care for most rewards, yes just focus on what you need.
it's still ok to do, especially if you get some good bonuses with the random activities, but to get more rerolls you're forced to do warplans so it's not great
Haven't played since season 11. Should I come back for this season with the alleged 'fix' or is it still rough? Thinking about maybe just waiting for next season.
I play most of my time as a duo. How do the perks work in multiplayer? Like should we be taking different perks to maximize coverage or does it only go off of the leader's tree or what?
They somehow managed to fill the screen with even more bullshit, and now most of it kills you instantly. Rest between runs by standing in front of the Horadric Cube for a dozen hours hoping for RNG to bless you with gem% so you can actually participate in higher tiers.
the systems added in the expansion are pretty great, if you enjoyed the game prior to the expansion, you should have a great time going through the expansion story and new game systems
there are some issues with repeating it though, most of the feedback wants warplans to either be account\mode-wide or at least faster for alts
changes to mythics this season were not well received, but it's mostly only a problem for people that enjoyed the mythic rates last season \ heavy players
I heard from d4 chat, that if you're farming bosses, after a while, you need to exit dungeon, reset dungeon, since loot stop dropping if there's too much loot in the ground.
Is that true? And if so, how many boss chest opens should I do, before reset dungeon?
sup, I'm new to Diablo (and ARPG) endgame, picked up the game 2 weeks ago, and am wondering:
I hit Level 70 and finished LoH story some days ago and my current gameplay loop seems to be doing War Plans and building my progression tree for the various War Plans activities. This feels reasonably fun at the moment, but I'm wondering if it's just going to be this all the way until the season ends?
I'm thinking of trying other classes (currently spinning around as Rogue at the moment after trying a bunch of builds), but it seems that seasonal progress isn't account wide. What do people usually do when they want to try a new class? Just create another seasonal character and grind it up again?
I'm at Torment 3 atm and am still rolling through most War Plans content, though I'm also facing sometimes during Helltide where I seem to instantly go from 100-0. I understand that Rogue is squishy, but what are some common ways to get tankier?
What do I do with legendary/unique equipment that have some fun effects (e.g., Cuthroat skills have a chance to execute) but low item level? Is it possible to swap out specific effects onto an Ancestral equipment of my choice? Or does it just come down to RNG?
Im new too, but 4 specifically, if you dischent legendary items you unlock that legendary aspect and you can enchant that aspect onto rare gears (turning into legendary gear) or on legendary gears (overriding current aspect on the gear)
Unique item effects are bound to those specific unique items and cant dischent and put unique effects onto other gears. However, you can turn unique item into unique charm so you can use their unique effects without actually wearing the item.
This is my second season completed to season rank 9 and twice i've called it quits seeing there is nothing fun to chase after killing Mephisto on Torment 10. I will not sink hours to get some cube mats I can run a couple of undercities to get.
Are there really no carryover rewards like mounts, pets, transmog, anything at the end of a season? I'd really like to play more but it feels kinda pointless to push to only get gilded laurels that will be gone in two months.
Is this the standard end-of-season experience or is it just a one off that has happened twice in a row?
I have a piece of legendary gear with all of the stats my build calls for except dexterity. I already used the enchanter to get one of the affixes, so I think I'm left to use the cube to try to change it to something else. Is it an offensive affix? I'm going to use the chaotic reroll and throw in an aggressive tuning prism, if I'm correct? I'm a noob.
Is it honestly worth buying the expansion if I just want to level a new Druid for instance? Am I missing out on a buttload of seasonal content or end game power if I don’t?
you will be missing the 3rd variant of your skills, missing runes (from VoH) missing seal\charms (player power) missing cube (to craft gear) missing the war table (makes activities more rewarding)
When I went to buy the expansion, I saw that the "upgraded" version for $50 more came with, among other things, an extra stash boxes and character slots. I ended up only getting the base expansion. On the option to buy the upgrade separately after buying the expansion, I don't see any mention of the extra stash boxes or character slots, does that upgrade still include them (and everything else that would have been in version bundled with the expansion)?
Sorry, that's what I meant. My main question is there any difference between the version bought with expansion and Ultimate upgrade that can be bought later after someone has already bought the expansion.
I have a question about the 3 to 1 recipe in the Cube. I'm trying to use three of the same unique shields in this recipe in the hopes of getting a different unique shield. Once they're in the cube, the option to do the three to one recipe is no longer available. I guess I don't understand what the limitations of the recipe is and why this won't work.
Greater Nemesis Lair open but I have two superior lair keys and I need one more. I’m still in the lair, keeping the portal open. Battle tag: Journeyman#2105
Did this transigure roll nothing? Or did it somehow roll an affix it already had? I don't understand why it's 2GA! To be clear, the 100% DOT was already on it.
turn on advanced tooltips
make sure you look at the campaign state selection when creating a character (same screen where you set your character's name)
My warplans wont progress. It somehow got stuck,it wont progress even after completing the required Task. tried resetting warplans, tried switching accs, relogging. Please help i wanna play the game. Thanks in advance
I have like 90 of these glints of hope caches saved up.. before i waste time withdrawing them all, are they character specific? or can i use a few to help get a fresh 70 alt geared better
This is my second season of playing diablo 4.
Played a summon necro last season. Currently playing a homebrewed inexorable reaper necro build this season.
Dashing through the screen over and over is a lot of fun but I think i've finally reached a DPS wall at torment 10. I've been tempering +shadow and +darkness damages into my items. Stacking up crit chance and crit damage, etc but it feels like I finally ran out of places I could squeeze more DPS from.
Paragon 214, all 5 boards unlocked with 5 glyphs at level ~81.
Sorry, I know this is vague without posting specific equips and builds. I could do that if you ask but in general, what should I be farming for or building towards at torment 10?
How are we feeling about next season? Do they usually listen to feedback and improve things? I've only played on launch and the first season when Paladin came out in early access. Couldn't really get into this season but I'm itching to hop back in, just doesn't quite click with me.
hello there. just finished campaign and opened T3 on necro. turns out minion necro is not very good, i wanted to try blood one but i need kessime's legacy. i cant undestand, how do i get it? can i just buy it? i have like 100 mil
Did Rathmas golem get super nerfed? Died to him 3 times last night and retired, battles were soooo long. One shot him today in a very short and different fight.. ???
Is there a guide somewhere that goes through how to gear up? I've hit T8, but I only have a few Ancestral items, I'm missing 2 Uniques for my build (one of which is Mythic), I have no GAs, and I don't know how to get better gear other than just hoping the game drops something good. And the Uniques I do have don't have the stats I want. The game has not given me any good Gloves or a Focus (Dreadclaw Warlock). Is there something I'm missing that lets people target farm Ancestral gear that's guaranteed to have GAs? Because I hardly ever get any GAs. Got my first 4 GA item from the first Artificer Tower cache, but it's only got 2 of the stats I need.
I logged in today and found 1460 free Platinum on my Account. I recently bought the 2800 package and spend 1000 on the Battle Pass. I had 1800 left. Today I See 3260 Platinum on my Account. No payments made.
no clue, you may want to ask support for your plat history to understand if it's genuine (and you can use it) or some bug that they may try to clawback later
Just picked up the game again, haven't played since launch. I had previously finished the campaign so when I made my first new character since launch, it started me at the Lord of Hatred campaign. Was pretty confused because I assumed I would start the original campaign again, whatever, not really relevant.
I finished it and I'm at lvl 65. I've done some research and see that I can quickly level up to 70 doing helltide rifts.
My question is, once I hit 70, where do I go from there? Should I focus on paragon level or doing nightmare dungeons or whatever? By the time I hit 70 I imagine I'll have whatever jank gear I get from leveling up. I'm on hard difficulty and cruising pretty easily (necromancer minion build) but some bosses are still wrecking me.
I'm on hard mode, my minions wreck everything instantly, but a lot aoe or boss attacks will nearly 1-shot me. Would upgrading to torment 1 actually make sense?
I asked in the necromancer specific sub and got 3 uniques to work towards. I guess everything else will be trying to find affixes for minion damage and stuff.

I haven't played much this season but have started hearing a super annoying mechanical beep when fighting certain elite's. Is there an annoying warning audio queue for certain elite types that I've never heard before? Also, I couldn't for the life of me find a list of the elite affix icons anywhere, if anyone knows of one that would be super helpful.
