Blessed hammer iirc is bad. don't even bother. What you SHOULD do is a pony build. (stampede build) You see I'm wondering why on my monk I'm just using my same old gear, no gungdo gear or anything, ancient torch of the grand incense temple and stuff, and you guys are doing 50s. I didn't remember you guys have those double damage globes. Also to be fair, it isn't all that hard to get a massacre bonus. Well it's not hard at all. You can have the Double Damage probably the entire Greater Rift unless you're really unlucky with RNG. So the double damage and the double HP kind of cancel each other out. The shit comes in when you're on a Rift Guardian that spawns no adds, so you're doing x1 damage against x2 HP. So it's kind of shitty.

Lol me too, anything that isn't designed to be easy. I do well at platformers though. I pretty much realised this when i started Dark Souls 2 earlier this month. I really never had that much trouble in Dark Souls 1 but for some reason i did now. I think it's because i've become very impatient and i tend to be too aggressive in situations where i should be a little more passive. Well to be fair, dark souls is pretty much designed to kill the shit out of you in the strangest ways. Never had the issue with Dark Souls 1, after the first 100 hours or so. When i eventually got to the point where i did my SL1 playthrough i was able to do Manus without getting hit. Dark Souls punish those who are impatient. A lot of games do that nowadays, to be honest. That's where it bites me in the ass. I was playing Shadow of Mordor earlier and tried to take a bit more of a stealthy approach. Instead of going right at the target (and as a result having 100 Uruks (i think that's what they're called?) chasing me, i sniped a few around the target and tried luring him out. Takes a lot longer to start the actual fight, but the fight itself takes 80% less time because i don't have to keep running away because i'm getting overwhelmed.

Dear baby jesus Shadow of Mordor is taking ages to install. It's been like.... 3 hours now. Maybe more. Time has stopped. Bought it today, along with Deadrising 3. I played Deadrising 2 and didn't really like it too much, but decided to buy 3 today. Was a bit of an impulse buy, i guess. Went to a videogame store up the road from my house with the intention of getting Shadow of Mordor and Lords of the Fallen. They didn't have Lords of the Fallen so i basically just thought to myself i was going to buy two games anyway, so why not just pick a random game. Not going to lie, but i'm pretty happy i did. It's so much better than Deadrising 3. At least from what i can remember. I think i already put a solid 5 hours in it. Also it's been 50 days since my last cigarette. Pretty happy about that.

Haha, i seem to always have the opposite problem. Things always seem to run right at me, which is why i have trouble playing Wizards or Demon Hunters. WD is fine because i usually have a wall of pets protecting me, but i don't have the same luxury with Wiz/DH so i never really managed to make it too far (until recently). Barb has had single-target DPS "problems" for a while now. Ridiculously good multi though. It's kind of frustrating though, when you spawn the RG with 7 or 8 minutes left and you still run out of time. If you do decide to play Crusader next, i'd suggest the Stampede build if you don't want a "Melee" build. It's a lot stronger than a Blessed Hammer build and probably same in terms on ease. You probably should have tried Monk this season though. They're even stronger than last season. I saw a video of Quin69 (he's #1 Monk in the world currently) kill the RG on a 55 in something like 20 seconds. [bleep]ing insane. It was Stonesinger, but still. Right now i'm alternating between my WD and DH. My WD i'm trying to push 51, and my DH i'm trying to push 48. If i just manage to get some decent RNG in a rift for once, i can see myself easily clearing 51. Just found out an interesting bit of information. Apparently monster HP on console is double that of PC. The assumed reasoning behind this is that, because we have Nephalim Glory (Globes that give double damage for 20 seconds) monsters should have double the HP. Someone said the reason for this (double damage bonus) is because console players supposedly like seeing higher crit numbers, because it gives the illusion of faster gameplay (or something of the sorts). It's all good and well when you're clearing rifts, but the problem comes in with the RG. Since we have to get a massacre bonus to get the globe, we're usually unable to get this against the RG unless it spawns adds. If not, we're stuck with a RG that has double the HP while we're only doing 100% damage. This was brought up after one of our console players cleared a 56 solo (as a monk) and was accused of either being a cheater or that the console version is just extremely easy. So him and a few other people did some testing on this. What makes it harder to test though is that fact that the Console version doesn't display the HP like the PC version does (apparently). Kind of interesting. I always assumed that the console version pretty much had a double damage bonus without any negative effects tied to it, which is why i have been able to push high 40s. And now i find out that i've been pushing high 40s against monsters that have double the HP than the PC version.

Played Advanced Warfare for the first time in about 2 months today. Man... how did it take me this long to realise how bad the game is? Hit direction is shit, gun variety is nonexistent, maps are terrible. I could go on for days. Really can't see myself buying another CoD game in the future. This Battlefield has ruined it for me now.

Diablo III
Damn i just looked at that Reddit post you linked, and the guy that cleared the 58 has gear pretty on-par with mine. Only thing is he's using a CoE and i'm using a Unity still. I might try a CoE and see what i can do. I did manage to find a new DoD yesterday, with just over 3k damage. Should make a noticeable difference, i think. My highest is still just 50 with this build. I tried a 52 again, but 3 deaths costs me really big. Killed the RG just as the timer disappeared. I was pissed, haha. Getting keys for 50+ is such a pain in the ass though, cause the highest i can usually get in trials is like 46, maybe 47. So i'll often have to do 3 or 4 GRifts before i can go for a personal best, that's really annoying cause i can still easily get [bleep]ed on a 48/49/50.

http://www.reddit.com/r/Diablo3witchdoctors/comments/33lhk8/wd_clears_gr58/ I'm using a carnevil in seasons right now and I'm liking it. Do I roll fetish damage or poison dart damage on my items, though? Poison dart, right? Yeah Dart on your Boots and Pants (i think those are the two) and Fetish on your Shoulders and Chest. I'm not sure about the Mojo since the new ones can roll up to 25%, but i think 15% Dart is still better overall.

Diablo III
Well there are three builds right now that are doing really well. The best build is the one i'm running. Carnevil build. It has potential to go up to 55ish i think, if you have good items. I think i'm almost there, just need to replace my Dagger of Darts and my Pants (maybe Gloves can get an upgrade too). Then there's obviously the Tiki build which has always done good. I don't know how the new one works though. I would imagine it involves using a Mana spender and 6piece Zuni. Then there's a MoJ build. Very squishy though, since you're not using a Unity. Don't see that build making it much higher than 50 though. If i were you, i'd stick to a good Tiki or Carnevil build.

No tax, highest GDP per capita, safe. The list goes on. I have no qualification, no experience, i'm 24, and i earn more in 6 months than most Americans do in a year. I haven't had the need to lock my door or my car once in the 8 years living here. [bleep], i wouldn't care if it was a sewer then. Unfortunately, many people who live here take the U.A.E. for face value only. Focusing on its pretty skyline & GDP per capita. No one takes into account the thousands of laborers that are trapped in the country as their passports have been 'confiscated' and their only option is to keep working there, even that sex before marriage is a punishable offence. Quality of life, I agree. Liberal? I am skeptical. I am not a criticizer of the nation I am living in, I just evaluate nations based on the same means and I take it as an insult that this kind country of called 'liberal' not deserving that title. :S Hell of a lot more deserving of the "liberal" title than Qatar, at the very least. You folk have a lovely airport though. ;) Yas Island > Airport.

Diablo III
I've never heard of this o.o Not impossible, but I talk with some pretty hard core dudes and I've never heard about this Exp Exploits in Season 1 (might have been Season 2), Blood Shard exploit in Season 3 which led to the removal of Blood Thief goblins. End of Season 1 there was a leaderboard cleanup to get rid of people who cheated. Sounds like some pretty casual hard core dudes you talk with, lol. Only for Season 3 or for off-season too? Because in the off-season I killed a blood shard gob yesterday lol. I mean, of course it's possible but I've never heard it from them so I figured it was a few people with the know-how to get past Blizzard With them changing the file types cheating should be removed nearly entirely in any case Was only in seasons then i guess. Apparently if you found a Bloodshard Goblin you didn't kill it yet. Open the highest GR you can, then while you're inside a friend kills the goblin and it'll drop piles of shards n accordance to the GR difficulty. So if you're doing like a GR50 it'll drop piles of 260 instead of piles of 20ish like it usually did. People were getting 40k shard/hour lol.

Calling Console casual when PC players are using different exploits every other month, getting leaderboards wiped. Good one :lol:

What Game(s) Did You Last Get and What Are You Playing?
Been seriously addicted to DS2 the past 12 days. It's really fun. In terms of lore it's kind of disappointing, but i've never really been too concerned about that. The DLC bosses are so much fun. Difficult and infuriating, but fun. Smelted Demon 2.0 actually gave me a lot of trouble. I started using Ultra Greatswords because i was getting bored of Katanas and Rapiers, so it took some time to adjust my playstyle. Fume Knight and Sir Alonne... Fume Knight is actually quite easy once you get it down. Just one or two of his attacks are really hard to dodge because of the delay on them. Sir Alonne is just super crazy cause of his speed. It's like Artorias on crack. Crown of the Old Iron King is probably my favorite DLC though. The bosses are all fun (i don't mind fighting 2 Smelters, i like him as a boss), and the actual level itself is just amazing. I was really hesitant about buying DS2 after my initial experience with it when it first came out, but i'm really happy i ended up getting it.
