Only real complaint is how we are limited to 6 buttons for skill slots. You can have WAY more than that on certain builds, but it was decided to treat PC players like console players and limit what they can can put on their bar.


From what I remember that was an intentional game balance decision to not have more skill slots so as to not have completely broken OP characters. I don't think it had anything to do with PC vs console.

Could be. At the very least give a dedicated button for ultimates so it's not a decision between having one vs giving up a skill you had already invested in.

May not be on today but will be for sure tomorrow night. I just met Meshif but am already level 50 (hilarious that he thinks that Lorath is Deckard). Need to power through the rest of yellow quests so i get T3 unlocked.

We're almost on identical paths… just a couple main quests ahead of you and I just hit 48. Meshif was cracking me up. I am just thoroughly enjoying everything about this game. Built a high end machine a year ago for this and it's such a sight to behold, I just run around for hours with a huge grin on my face.

The game isn't perfect but the base game is in such a good spot. I can't wait to see where they take this thing for years to come, I may not play anything else.

Also just hit 50 and am trying to get T3 unlocked. Actually having trouble with one of the bosses at the start of Act 6.

Thinking about getting this game tonight, but not sure which class to run with. Is the necromancer any good? I remember it being the worst in Diablo 2.

Roll whatever you want to roll would be my recommendation. Every class is viable and meta will be changing constantly I'm sure, if that's something you're worried about.

D2 changed a ton over the years too but Necros always had a pretty diverse build options list, I don't ever remember there being a period of Necros being the worst but maybe there was a patch mixed in there at some point that this was the case.

There are a handful of builds for each character that all seem to work fine. IcyVeins has good guides for pointers.

Necromancer is really good in this one but all classes are viable

Necro levels fast in the early game but starts to become much weaker in the later game. Barb, Rogue and Druid seem to be the strongest late game, but that really comes down to if you are playing post 70. Also, as has been mentioned, it's very possible Blizzard releases buffs to those classes by the time you get there.

I hope they stop nerfing classes to lower them to Necro and just buff necro and the others.

Very easy, imo. Pick a class, and then go start committing genocide against demons.

Builds only really become important once you start T3, so around level 50 and after the campaign.

Until then, just about anything will kill monsters, and best in slot gear is perfectly fine. If you are the type who actually wants to push end game and level up after the campaign, then you should look into some of the meta builds for whichever class you go for.

I'm about 50/50 on killing The Butcher or him killing me (out of about 8 encounters). As a fire sorc its easier now than it was pre-level 50. Easiest way is to kite him in a circle around a pillar and let him slowly die with dots (hydra and whatever else I can get off while running around like a little girl).

Even beyond level 50 you can still "play for fun" if you have no expectations of seeing how far/fast you can push yourself in nightmare dungeons. There will be inevitable nerfs/buffs to all classes so just play what's enjoyable and if you reach a stalling point maybe just roll a different class and start over. Or respec and try a different build.

Pretty much any class can handle wt3 content easily enough. Its pretty much too easy now for my level 62 fire sorc so I'll try out the wt4 access/capstone dungeon tonight then see how much harder it is.

Does anyone know how the nightmare dungeons work with respect to what main difficulty level you are playing on? Is a wt3 nightmare level 1 dungeon the same as a wt4 nightmare level 1 dungeon? Or does both difficulty settings stack together (which is what I assume will happen when I try t4)?

Shako in this one is just obscene. It's one of the rarest two items in the game as well (The Grandfather is the other one).

People on Reddit were complaining it wasn't good if you want an example of people complaining about literally anything. Looks incredible for every possible build to me.

My point... so there's not point in playing unless you are pushing. Also, you can "play for fun" if you are rocking a true build. Just throwing points around without thinking will not work in T3 hell tides.
