Have a level 60 Sorcerer and 25 Rogue. The Sorc is great right now but some content creators are saying it falls off badly in the late endgame. Hopefully it’s not too bad because it’s fun to play. Rogue is fun but it feels really difficult to control on console. If/when I get the PC version I’ll probably enjoy it more.
This is practically an unkillable Necro build. I have yet to die from it.
That dude's configs in T2 dungeon action
For me the goal isn't to not die because that's really easy to do, it should be to actually have the ability to focus things down quickly so you can play efficiently and not spend enormous amounts of time in one dungeon.
I played a summoner necro during the beta and since launch have tried the bone spear and bone spirit. I'm pretty sure I like bone spear better than bone spirit, but bone spirit does an insane amount of damage. The downside is that it uses all of your essence so there's a lot of running around trying to get that refilled before you can attack effectively again. None of the secondary abilities, corpse explosion, etc. does enough damage at tier 4 with the gear I have.
There was an interesting build I saw that focused around a weapon that does frost damage for a necro and it looked really interesting but I haven't found the weapon yet to try it out.
I'm playing Bone Spirit and the one downside, which is a major one, is that it's awful against single targets (not including bosses and elites). If I end up in a dungeon with a "kill all monsters" objective I tend to leave. Chasing individual archers around and waiting for 8+ second cooldowns is exremely tedious. Is bone spear better in that sense? How is it against bosses?
Have not tried in DIV yet but loved it in D2 and D3. Once you get good at the game it's not all that more difficult though dying because of a server error or something out of your control on Blizzard/Bnet end really sucks as they will not revive you no matter whatHow do people play Hardcore? That sounds so stressful.
I have the same issue with Bone Spirit. There's some low level minion running around and I have to pop all my essence to take him down. Same thing happens when I run into barriers out in the world.
Bone Spear was definitely better against straggling targets because it doesn't consume all of the essence and would usually kill the minion fast enough. The difference is spirit is a single right click to make everything die and bone spear takes a few clicks. Bone spear was more forgiving but did less damage. Haven't switched back to spear yet at my current level of~63 and I switched at around 50 or so.
No issues with bone spear against bosses, it might even be slightly better in some instances because there's less waiting around.
Yeah, barriers frustrates the hell out of me. Can always jump over it from the horse, but then the horse is on cooldown.
Gonna try out bone spear for a bit today then. Respec costs are not that bad.
I know and the changes were not even at launch but about 2 weeks after launch the did a mini update that nerfed stuff for barbs and sorcs if I recall.Not enjoying barbarian as much as I did in the beta.. guess I should have checked the changes prior to starting at release

Here is a question has anyone tried PVP yet? Heck is it even available yet as I have not even bothered to look into as I concentrate on learning the game etc.
Its weird to see blood mist and corpse explosion both be used on the same bar. Earlier I was using them both but just used the aspect that lets blood mist trigger corpse explosion(rather than actively use it) for me. But I reworked everything to focus a lot more on the darkness passives and shadowblight which is kind of dumb since Kalen's edict feels so meh compared to it especially when you pick up the aspects that buff shadowblight.For me the goal isn't to not die because that's really easy to do, it should be to actually have the ability to focus things down quickly so you can play efficiently and not spend enormous amounts of time in one dungeon.

The floating ghouls can be modified for freeze. I’ve got five of them and they do a solid job.For me the goal isn't to not die because that's really easy to do, it should be to actually have the ability to focus things down quickly so you can play efficiently and not spend enormous amounts of time in one dungeon.

I caved.Really want to play this game, especially because the guys I usually play with are playing, but I can't bring myself to pay $90+tax for a game anymore...gamepass has spoiled me (and being an adult with other responsibilities has made me question my spending!)
The early game cutscenes and the end games cutscenes are the most important to the story, so you should be fine if you're missing some mid game story. Still good the whole way through, there's a few cutscenes that just incredible.I caved.
Now to make sure I play it enough to justify how much I spent...which shouldn't be hard, I'm only an hour and a half in and already blown away.
I have to remind myself not to skip cut-scenes, I've been playing so many roguelikes and indie games in general that either have bad or inconsequential cutscenes (Hades aside) but the ones I've watched in D4 are amazing.
