Shameless plug of thread to be updated soon, in case you want some more noodling.
However, the season 4 experience is much smoother compared to previous seasons, because of 2 glyph XP boosts: from the seasonal urns and the sigil affix. Basically:
- Before running NMD’s, grind the battle pass until you get 4 urn dust, max out the glyph XP urn, and then…
- salvage any sigil that’s not glyph XP or “extra shrines”.
But this is just Blizzard cheesing the XP rate, rather than making the grind loop less tedious, which I think is still needed. I wouldn’t even mind the grind being twice as long, if it can also be 3 times more engaging.
This sounds like you took a break in early S2. If so, I’m curious why.
