Title: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Nonentity on April 17, 2014, 03:15:04 PM
I've dumped probably 2-3k blood shards into helms on Kadala, trying to get an Andariel's Visage for my lightning barb. I finally got one to drop, but it had Physical damage on it.

(http://snag.gy/Brc3h.jpg)

It's not a perfect roll, as I'd like crit damage or a skill I actually use, but that 18% lightning damage is still ridiculously good, as well as the under-rolled proc (that goes off ALL the time).

I also got this necklace out of an act 1 cache, and it goes REALLY well with a lightning barb build:

(http://snag.gy/De95K.jpg)

The clones are invulnerable and last 15 seconds, and they are easily triggered with the 30% chance to stun on Frenzy.

My current project is dumping shards into Kadala in an attempt to get some Ice Walkers, which would help my survivability immeasurably.

Also, if you have the recipe, go out of your way to get some Reaper's Wraps:

(http://snag.gy/Zp1uR.jpg)

These are the ones I have, and with the Swords to Ploughshares rune on Battle Cry, I have an 8% chance on crit to spit out health globes. The group I run with predominantly runs Reaper's Wraps, and the amount of damage we can put out when I spit out a stack of 8-9 health globes from a single mob is absurd.

You really are missing out without +elemental damage on your ammy, but those reapers have me crazy jealous.

I've put maybe 3000 shards into gloves this week trying to get a Tasker for my WD, but all I got was 1 legendary and it was trash.

Kadala still sucks. Legendary item drop should be doubled yet again. It's another day in Sanctuary.

Post by: Threash on April 17, 2014, 05:05:44 PM
Reaper's wraps are not hard to farm, Malthael drops the recipe and the legendary mat for it.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: schild on April 17, 2014, 05:16:01 PM
It's a nearly guaranteed recipe drop the moment you kill him the first time if you're above 61.

It's boring as shit to farm though as he has 5 billion hit points.

He's a pain in the ass, unless you got this nifty Malthael killers. (http://i.imgur.com/8NaKP5h.jpg)

Post by: apocrypha on April 18, 2014, 10:08:20 AM
I've been gambling for hats. Had 3 legendaries so far, each one a worse version of one I already had in the bank.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Rasix on April 18, 2014, 10:19:59 AM
Luckily I pulled a Mask of Jeram off Kadala. Now that Hat has informed me that Tasker exists, I have no choice but to try for that.  I imagine I'll get lots of shitty rolled magefists.

With Kada overall I've gotten 2 hats, 1 belt, 1 chest, a bracer, and a mojo (the snakes).

Haunt of Vaxo is awesome.  The clones cast poison dart, frogs, horrify, corpse explosion, and locusts for my witch doctor.  I'm glad I can proc it with Bogodile, because I really didn't want to slot Snake to the Face or Mass Confusion.

Post by: Merusk on April 18, 2014, 11:19:17 AM
I've gotten a few off Kadala since the change, and even kept a few.  She doesn't want to give me pants, though.  Of those I've seen none.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Ingmar on April 18, 2014, 11:32:22 AM
Other than Pox Faulds legendary pants are on the whole very underwhelming anyway. Pretty much a place to get a set bonus and nothing else.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Merusk on April 18, 2014, 12:50:07 PM
Really that's all I'm hoping for.  At this point on the Wiz that's all I can do for upgrades.  Minor incremental +es and set pieces. I've gotten one set of Firebird to drop and that's it. 


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me

did you get your ring frarming act 1 bounties?

Im looking for one as well, and that seems to be the best way to get one, or so I hears.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Rasix on May 08, 2014, 09:41:47 AM
I think that's the only way you can get it.  Act 4 bounties should work as well (because they give you anything from 1 through 3). 

I got mine through an Act 1 cache.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Segoris on May 08, 2014, 10:03:28 AM
Yeah, if just farming for that ring then drop difficulty to normal and farm act 1 to limit the variety of the legendaries that could potentially drop. Also, try to find other people needing the ring and split up in act 1 to farm it faster


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Stewie on May 09, 2014, 09:21:09 AM
So I got my RoRG with my wiz and it has dex.

Post by: Count Nerfedalot on May 09, 2014, 09:43:24 AM
Noob question: are legendaries unique? I got a legendary breastplate on my witchhunter that I love (gives me 3 wolves instead of one, combined with the Countess having the same piece our games are a crazy mashup of wolfpack frenzy, mad cluster arrow explosions, and that vengeance minigun effect!)

Problem is my bp is level 66.  So do I have a chance of finding level 70 version or is it unique to my character or account?

Also having found exactly zero green pieces so far, I don't have any idea what slot to gamble my shards on as I've got nothing to build on. Should I just pick whichever slot is weakest or are there some individual items a witchhunter should be hoping for? I'm currently ensnaring shot/cluster arrow but open to reconfigure if I kill stuff even faster and with bigger/more frequent explosions!


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Rasix on May 09, 2014, 09:48:43 AM
Legendaries are not unique.  You may find another.

Don't go crazy on the gambling until you hit 70.  Then, it might help to look up demon hunter specific armor pieces and try for them.  Weapons/rings/amulets take more, so I prefer to use my shards on armors/offhands (I think most DH use dual hand crossbows, however). 


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Ironwood on May 09, 2014, 10:09:11 AM
Kadala doesn't give class sets though, eh ?

Or have I been fooled by that 'fact' ?


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Ragnoros on May 09, 2014, 10:18:45 AM
Kadala doesn't give class sets though, eh ?

Correct. Also not the quasi class sets like Firebirds and Vyr's.

Quote
Torment Only Legendaries
Sets
Natalya's Vengeance
Immortal King's Call
Tal Rasha's Elements
Inna's Mantra
Zunimassa's Haunt
The Legacy of Raekor*
Firebird's Finery*
Embodiment of the Marauder*
Raiment of a Thousand Storms*
Raiment of the Jade Harvester
Armor of Akkhan*
Monkey King's Garb
Thorns of the Invoker
Vyr's Amazing Arcana
The Shadow's Mantle
Might of the Earth
Helltooth Harness*

With the exception of Shard of Hate you can get basically every non-set legendary from Kadala.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Ingmar on May 09, 2014, 10:38:27 AM
Note they're going to (have already? I've been Hexing) make a change to let those come out of Horadric Caches obtained on Torment difficulties, which they currently can't do. So that should be a good change.

Well, I'm level 70 with ~45 paragon points and over 300 shards so I'm going to have to go crazy on the gambling soonish before I hit the 500 shard cap.
I'm just totally confused about what to do now to improve my character beyond kill more stuff and hope for phat lewts. But I am enjoying the killing stuff part, generally at Torment 1 for a moderate challenge or Master for a cakewalk, both solo and duo.

I also am having a horrible run of luck, having found only three or four legendaries since I hit 70, less than one for every four adventure mode clearing of an act, usually with the bonus thingies, and with a few rifts thrown in, roughly a quarter at master and the rest at Torment 1 or higher. 


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Merusk on May 09, 2014, 11:34:09 AM
People still run adventure mode?  I thought Level 70+ was all about rifts, just throwing AM in for the shards to open rifts.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Ironwood on May 09, 2014, 11:56:54 AM
You don't get rifts outside adventure mode ?

Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Teleku on May 09, 2014, 12:01:28 PM
I think he's confusing Adventure mode with the campaign mode.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Ingmar on May 09, 2014, 12:03:38 PM
Nah, he means running bounties vs. doing Rifts (hence the mention of using AM to get shards.)

People do run bounties, mostly speed runs on Normal to try to farm the Cache-specific legendaries like the ring that lowers set requirements. The change to Caches to let the Torment sets drop out of them on Torment might change that or it might not.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Merusk on May 09, 2014, 12:16:35 PM
What Ingmar said. I meant bounties but link that mentally as "adventure mode" because clearing rifts doesn't stop the match maker from replacing dropped players while clearing bounties does. Which is dumb, but w/e.

I'd imagine the change to the caches will get more people doing them, but on T1 which is silly slow.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Ironwood on May 09, 2014, 12:18:18 PM
BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT HE SAID !!!

But yeah, I check out for the recipe dude, I do a bounty if I need rift shards and I rift.

It's all cool.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Count Nerfedalot on May 09, 2014, 01:13:54 PM
I said adventure mode. I meant bounties. I R confuzzled and definitely not optimized! LOL
I also have never played in a public game in D3. I mostly duo or trio with friends and family, and soloed last night for the first time this year.

So I need gear, I'm still half in blue and have no set items at all, I gots lots of rift shards so I should be rifting? What level? We can duo T1 rifts easy enough, I seem to recall we had trouble or at least it was unfun slow at some higher level of Torment but I don't recall what level it was. It might have been late and I might have been drinking, which may or may not have made it harder but definitely blurred the memory!

 I'll probably save the rifts for when I have company. So for solo I should do Act 1 bounties at either Normal or Torment 1?

I may still be a bit confused here.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Ironwood on May 09, 2014, 01:24:10 PM
Seriously, there's literally NO downside to grouping and jumping into Public Games.  You get through things quicker, more rifts get opened and the monsters go down quicker than ur mom.

You'll find that interactions are at a bare minimum and you won't get tards.  You get your own loot, so no-one's competing, it's just a push through.

You should do it.  ALL OF YOU.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Merusk on May 09, 2014, 01:27:34 PM
If you need gear then rifts are the best bet because of the increased legendary drop rate.  Public for the + find of being in a group and the ability for people to drop in and out. Play the hardest you can where you don't die every encounter.  There's almost always folks playing lower then their ability because they want an easy night or they're farming for something.

Start a new rift up once the old one is done and just chain them without doing bounties.  As I said, once a bounty run is complete MM won't add new players but if all you're doing is Rifts it will keep dumping people in on you. Typically I'd wind up in a group that would rotate through openings and people would drop after they hit 4 so they'd opened one and gotten 3 free runs.  

Clear the "good maps" listed even if you've already killed the guardian.  Super Jail was one, Swamp is another.  There's enough champs and elites in close enough proximity that it's worth it to clear those maps before closing the rift via turn-in.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Ingmar on May 09, 2014, 01:27:56 PM
Old Diablo 2 murder related habits die hard.

Also bastards are always turning in the rifts before I pick everything up!

Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Count Nerfedalot on May 09, 2014, 02:07:57 PM
I am old and slow and have to watch my stoopid blood pressure and if there is one thing that stresses me out more than being pushed to go faster it's being that one guy everyone resents because he's too slow!

Friends and family seem willing to put up with me anyway. But I tend to avoid situations where I feel like I'm either imposing on others or at risk of being imposed on by them, especially strangers.

That said, next time I feel up to a mad blitz game I might give pub a try. Best way to learn new tricks for sure.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me

Post by: Threash on May 11, 2014, 11:47:25 AM
All the effort they put in to make legendaries varied and useful basically got thrown out the window when they made six piece armor sets the endgame for almost every class and build.  All desire to play went away when i realized i was going to be looking for pretty much the exact same things on every character.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: apocrypha on May 11, 2014, 11:29:27 PM
A full six piece set will probably take years to get for most people. Plus, if you're a wizard, don't bother, just put on a pair of Pox Faulds instead.

Well, on the one hand I kinda disagree about this.  Other hand, sets were the same in Diablo 2, in a sense.

Gripping Hand, it's not the destination, it's the journey.

Post by: Typhon on May 12, 2014, 05:50:05 AM
I find it annoying that the ratios are so slanted to the shit legendaries.  I've gotten half a dozen of the mace with nails and other useless crap.  The chance of a fun/interesting legendary dropping is too low and I've given up.

If it were another company, I'd feel like a patch with more legendaries would arrive in a reasonable amount of time.  Since it's Blizzard, I know that that only patches that will be coming will be to remove fun.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Ironwood on May 12, 2014, 06:13:58 AM
If they stick to the plan, the next patches will add more collectable/interesting shit to keep the momentum up.

They're going to do SOMETHING else with items, it's almost certain.  I would have gone with some kind of Runeword system, but not sure how they would implement that kinda thing anymore.  It's certainly something I miss.

Also, the Mystic needs to do more.  Some kind of drop system that allows you to slot guaranteed item specifics would be nice, though almost certainly game-breaking.

It's fascinating to actually give a shit about this game.  I just wish there was any reason to dust off my other barb or monk, but what's the point ?  I have started a HC female Crusader for the lulz.  It really makes you play cautiously when death's around every corner...

So far the only one of those I've got is the one that makes the Templar unkillable.  If I could get a couple Unity rings it would be pretty nifty for solo play.

On a gambling related note, I think Kadala's now given me EVERY crusader shield EXCEPT the frisbee shield.


Title: Re: Legendary Chat AKA Kadala Hates Me
Post by: Ironwood on May 12, 2014, 08:46:03 AM
Interestingly, the percentages for that shield are just as high as the rest of them, so you're getting seriously RNG screwed.

Teleport cooldown buff for Wizards, accompanied by a nerf to the Calamity rune.

Blew through 450 shards on gloves and shoulders, not a legendary to be seen. I did get the helm with 25% chance of blinding, and the bracers with 4% chance to drop an orb when you blind someone. Changed things quite a bit, torment 1 went from slow to fast.

I've gotten 3 legendaries out of Kadala. A set of shoulders I use, and two magefists which would be awesome if they were +cold damage but the +damage is intrinsically fire so into the stash they go.

I'm officially a full smattering of legendaries and setpieces now.

After almost 2000 shards without a legendary, she gave me two in 200. One was even an upgrade, although still nothing special. Meanwhile I've also had my first two green set pieces drop, got one from the Countess who already had the same, and made one from a recipe. All from different sets and poorly rolled, of course!

So, spent some time rummaging through stash, mules, and visiting the mystic, and I've swapped out 3 legendaries for rares which I could cheaply enchant plus traded a couple other items , and doubled both Crit Chance and Crit Damage putting my DH paperdoll dps over 700,000. But I've lost all my heal on hit in the process which makes things tedious so I think I may trade some "surplus" crit chance for heal on hit, painful though it is to sacrifice dps.

So I've got this ring that smooches zombie dogs into one big zombie dog.

It's rather spiffy, since after some experimentation it turns out the big smooshed dog HITS LIKE A TRUCK.

I think they either overdid it or the calculations work on the individual dogs first, because he's hitting for millions.

It's rather awesome shit.

I'd love that ring just to remove some of the clutter.  And for the awesomeness, but mainly the clutter.

They've actually buffed that ring twice if I remember the patch notes right, so I think it is intentionally that way.

It's nice.  Works well with the Minions too, since they can swarm without the dogs getting in the way.

I finally found that merchant in the Northern Highlands that sells plans, but out of the half dozen I bought the little prick wouldn't sell me anything higher than level 60.

 Is that normal, or just my fucked up RNG again?

Granted, what I really need is the rest of my Akkhan's set anyway, not random oranges.  Got all excited last night when those green pants dropped, only to find they're Innas  :uhrr:

I got my DPS up to 1.8 mil, then began to disassemble the stuff that let me do torment 5 in favor of possible advancement to torment 6.

I had 17 + 15 + 15 + 25 percent disintegrate (thanks slorak), 20 + 20 arcane. Now I just have the arcane bonuses, two to three million more toughness, and can swap between disintegrate and arcane torrent as spenders.

Then I dropped familiar/sparkflint, another 10% damage hit. then I dropped glass cannon, because it was really just time. I use a fire damage weapon now so I added conflagrate, and my effective crit is up to 80%

I think the sacrifice will be worth it, but I honestly cannot progress anymore without tals, firebirds, mirrorball +2, rorg. anything else is ... not possibly able to improve me. maybe a moonlight.

dunno what that's gonna look like soon but the relentless pursuit needs for me to finish the last two gems, sage's gets replaced when i get a tal helm, boots and pants get replaced, set ring vanishes when the rorg drops

i would replace the devil tongue with a good tf too.

I am asuming everything just dies uber fast so you dont have to worry about getting hit?  Cause you dont seem to have a huge amount of +resist or healing to keep you up.  Though I guess the armor Buff must push your armor up pretty high.

Wizards don't really have healing. I mean, life on kill is ok, but anything else is pretty garbage at the higher levels. I can solo t4 and group t5 with minimal death issues (and once I have a RoRG, I can be ok with one death every 300 seconds ANYWAY, so) but Blur + Energy Shield make me surprisingly tough.

The most often I die is if I'm hammered down by a fast pack of leapers or lacuni or if I'm vortexed into The Fire and can't get away for a bit. But my paragon defense points are in All Res so it takes a bit and I can even still safely schlup through arcane sentries if I have to.

Although my whole setup just changed again. A friend pointed out the changes to Entropy, and now with the Slorak's it is doing insanely more damage than arcane torrent could, ever.
