the campaign is great and the bosses are very fun.
as you are going through the campaign just follow the yellow dot.
after the campaign some may get lost like my friend, now you have to follow the yellow dungeons.
at one point if you stay in tier 1 you will not be able to see the quest. the quest is no longer ‘yellow’ it is now ‘grey’ and you can only see the quest in tier 2.
after completing this you end up in nightmare mode.
if you are a new player and get stuck. the multiplayer legion and world boss fights are rather fun and do drop legendaries a lot. also some uniques i have found many uniques from both.
this is how you can get a carry to help your character get back to being strong again.
helltide is good for gear as well.
a website with timers including helltide timer.
diablo4 . cc without the spaces. it will give a timer for all of them.
for gold salvage half of your items for materials, and sell the other half for gold. you will need a LOT of gold to upgrade your gear.
as well if you are stuck. upgrade your items. a hint would be to go with item level instead of level requirments on items. such as an item level 600 weapon will be far less damage than a level 700 item. critical strike and critical hit is quite important on all characters.
you can take a legendary item and extract the legendary aspect of it, and put it onto a new rare item that you have using the oculust in town.
if using the blacksmith to upgrade your items i would only go with 2-3 upgrades at the farthest due to the cost of it.
you can ‘play your own way’ through the campaign and through everything except the nightmare dungeons.
then we get to the butttt.
-
the cost is rediculis buy the game and then a $$$monthly$$$greed$$$fee$$$ just to be able to log into the game, and then money for cosmetics if you care about those.
-
the nightmare dungeons you can no longer ‘play your own way’ at this point you have to find a ‘meta build’. however you can go for a while ‘playing your own way’ but you will really need ‘unstoppable’ so that you are not frozen/frozen/crap frozen again/again/now your stunned for the next half hour. it is extremelly annoying.
-
the nightmare dungeons are so very annoying that most people just wont do them. you have things following you around or monsters exploding forcing you to move consistantly while at the same time trying to avoid everything the mobs are throwing on the ground. these things need to be toned down a lot. if not completely remove the dungeon crap that follows you around. the mobs can be fine with if they had less crowd control against you.
this is where the game got very annoying and boring for me.
for the campaign
my experience with a barb it was slow, very very slow. it takes too much damage it needs more passive armor and fury regen. unless the barb is buffed for leveling i would not recommend using a barbarian as your first character. it is my fav class to it was amazing in original diablo 2 before seasons existed. Diablo 4 bring in life steal.
with a necro, it was very very fast things died very quickly. low armor too but your ranged run away and attack again. however resistance is bugged right now.
the skeletons could be improved. although they should die and you should need some sort of skill that creates a corpse for bosses. however they should be a little stronger and do some more damage if you are fully speced into the skeletons.
when trying to get the nightmare dunegeon quest. on my barb i found a sigil level 3 or higher on my first run.
on my necro it took over 12 runs before i could find a level 3 or higher sigil to complete the quest. i almost gave up looking for it.
the barbarian and i hope a dev read this. steel grasp is bugged. if you use steel grasp with the passive unconstrained steel grasp will only give you 2 seconds of berserking it is supposed to give 5 seconds with the passive unconstrained. steel grasp as well does not pull in a lot of monsters a bug or intended?
it is a great game, and does have potential to be much better.
being able to restart the campaign on each tier would be nice. or being able to go down the bosses over and over just like diablo 2.
some uniques are just not very good at all.
with all that said i do think it is a very good game.
a shoutout to the dev’s for great work on the campaign.
as well the alters of lilith and all of the quests the renoun points.
a lot of work has been put into this. cant wait to see what the future holds for the game.
what is in the season, should also be in the normal game after the season is over. some may not want to restart character in order to see the new stuff in the game.
leveling is extremelly slow if you are solo. for some getting to level 100 may take 6 months at the current rate of exp.
