Just a large dump of my opinions on things that could still use work

1: so many ultimates are unused or just useless

2: there is still a ton of useless skills, nodes and def a lot of issues with the paragon boards.

3: a lot of keystone nodes are terrible, useless… for example both cold sorc options are completely useless. i use vyrs mastery on my cold sorc just for the DR

4: lucky hit is by and large useless and unreliable or requires far to much investment to even make semi reliable.

5: overpower is wonky and hard to micromanage for basically no payoff and often wasted on trash mobs

6: most skills have odd stacking timers. a full stack should just last forever until its used.
instead of having me try and micromanage stack timers

7: to much of the game is still behind having to be level 100… by the time i am level 100 i am ready to give up a character and move on to either another character or another game all together… i dont want my “grind” to start at level 100… all uber gear, higher bosses, pit, etc are all basically required to be 100. its in theory possible to do it at lower levels its still just a handicap to bother. and i shouldnt be “finding” build defining gear at 100… i should be finding build defining gear around 60-80 mark so i can actually use and enjoy that gear while i am leveling. finding a uber at level 100 after ive already done most/all things… is pointless to say the least. whats the point of finding a shako by killing an uber boss??? if i already have gear good enough to end game… finding a shako isnt really going to excite me at all

8: wps should be carried over. at the very least in a single season. ideally just forever.

9: party finder. at least for some of the harder content. ideally for every dungeon/event/etc

10: generally get rid of “x lasts for x seconds” and make it “your next cast” etc less micomanaging… more action.

11: make manuals unfindable and only drop for side quests. promotes doing side quests which are largely ignored.

12: leave the overworld and dungeons drops how they are… class specific. but make worldboss, pits, cellers, and other spots able to drop all class drops. this gives people who want to farm for other builds an option to farm places and promotes places like cellars and makes them useful. or better yet… after level 100. class specific drops stop all together and anything can drop going forward for any class

13: some skills are just terribly supported… rapid fire… has 1 aspect and all it does it give a % chance to ricochet… woopy doo…

I do find some use for Necro Bone Storm, but I would not call this “Ultimate”. The Sorcs are useless, the Rogue’s were horrid.

I find the Paragon board to be an embarrassment of development and design. The UI is something akin to being developed the weekend before release. Awful idea, horrible implementation.

Agreed,

Again we have something that makes me feel they thought this up without actually thinking about it. Just remove Lucky Hit, dumbest thing.

Lucky Hit’s cousin is another poorly or amateurishly thought out design. Did anyone ever play a Diablo game before working on this?

I miss mana pots. Actually I do not, but I despise timers more.

D4 made me actually go back to D2R for a while. Only got back into D4 because I was curious about the PTR. I agree that everything is centered around getting to 100 (which I hate). and then the game just becomes empty and dull.

Thus we come to why I still play D2R. but get bored quickly in D4. It is a solo game, yet it isnt. Worse thing of all is Blizzard pointing us to Discord to find a party. Are you ******* serious?

I would go further to say they need to just fundamentally NMDs, Pits, etc. I dont want to endlessly do pit after pit to get the materials. I do not wish to repeatedly have to do NMDs just to level a useless glyph

These issues and tons more for me are causing me hold off on buying the expansion until I see fixes/improvements that have been out there as legitimate issues for a while.

at the minimum i want more co-op/party finder before i put more money into d4

its an ok solo game for sure, but i am not really into having to use discord/3rd party just to find people to play with

They def need a total paragon and skill rework. Like has been said too much is trash. Nob ody goes for keystones for most part its just stack up 6 or 7 boards because of glyphs. Enchantment one for sorc is in such a bad spot has anyone got it ever?

agreed. not sure how some of these even made it into the game they dont even fit the feel of the builds they are meant for
