My interest is rapidly plummeting because I don’t know what I’m supposed to do at this point other than finish leveling to 100. I’m level 92 now, all the gear is 925, I don’t know what stats are best for my build so I just put all the 925s and uniques in my chest until I figure out what I should be wearing. Because I don’t know what gear is best, I don’t bother to temper or upgrade or reroll etc any of them because I’d likely be investing in upgrading a crap piece to a less crappier piece.
The activities… I did helltides early on per the leveling guides, then did nightmare dungeons (and still do but don’t know why since my main six paragon glyphs are all upgraded to 15 now), ran the pit the 3 times I could (could run it a few more times I think at this point), did the tree turn ins a few times. It is all just getting to be “meh” because I truly don’t have an “objective” or “goal” that I’m supposed to be doing.
It’s pretty rare that I die; the only REAL challenge was when I did the trial at around 83 and got my butt absolutely handed to me (and seeing the mobs were 125!). Ofc many deaths were had at the boss that gets summoned in the helltides. It’s not to say I’m OP or indestructible… it’s just that the content seems to melt pretty quick so unless I’m not really paying attention, lag, or it is a one-shot, it just doesn’t seem that challenging.
Any guidance would be appreciated. I suppose I could make an alt just for something different but… would just be more of the same on a different toon. Feels like I’m missing the draw here.
You probably have enough mats to mess around inconsequentially.
What build are you playing? Are you following a guide? It’s not too hard to look at the available mods and put something together. Tempering and Masterworking can’t really make it worse. There’s only 3 affix per slot, so you’re likely to go with Strength, Life, and the third affix will be the flex slot, dependent upon your build.
Yeah, I am overflowing with mats. Almost all I have little idea what they even do so I don’t use them.
I’m playing the Whirlwind Dust Devil Barb build… which in itself is kind of a problem on knowing what to do because the current builds seem to revolve around a double swing build vs whirlwind. My assumption is that that difference is enough to make the aspects, stats, gear, etc different to be striving for. Same with paragons.
I’m trying roughly to follow this (certainly for aspects and paragon): d4builds.gg/builds/2d1c414c-efb8-4bad-8ddd-981232b01a27/?var=0
Agreed.
Loot itemization changes were nice, but the actual gameplay loop is still boring and unengaging overall.
That guide literally tells you exactly what stats, aspects, and tempering options they have on their gear.
Drop that WW dust build. You won’t be able to kill bosses with it
I mean bro, youre just not engaging with the most important part of character growth: itemization.
No one here can help. Youre going to have to start reading and think about what you wanna do. Then follow a build of try stuff out yourself.
Either way, if youre not willing to do these, then I think losing interest is fine, youre obviously not interested in D4 further thsn that.
