Things left to do in Diablo 3:
- Get Wizard from level 66 to 70. Season league.
- Get Crusader from level 54 to 70. No league, just normal, my oldest character on XB1.
- Get a Hardcore Barbarian from level 6 to 70, and finish the story, beat Diablo and Matheil on Hardcore.
- Buy the Necromancer pack, and play him next Season, since I’ve already used up this Season’s rewards.
- Get 500 bounties.
- Break 50 objects. (Impossible achievement? I’ve never seen this many objects in one area, I’ve been trying to get this for hundreds of hours of play now. I always run out of objects to destroy).
- Find a way to equip one of my characters in all level 70 legendary gear. This turned out to be a lot harder than I’d anticipated. It will take some crafting I think.
By the way, there’s gloves that my wizard found on her current run that make the shrine effect last for 10 minutes. That has got to be the best legendary attribute I’ve ever seen in the game. It’s crazy how big a difference this makes if you find the right shrine.
I also have a Spear I found with the property where attacking an enemy has a chance to give you a random shrine effect. I’ve extracted that attribute to the cube, but I haven’t equipped it. I’m currently using an attribute where after every 10 enemies I kill, I do a poison nova that does 1500% damage. Which is sooooo awesome, and has been for most of the game. So I don’t want to give that up for the shrine effect. BUT! Mostly because I’m afraid if I equip the shrine effect thing, I’ll get a great shine effect, and then I’ll be attacking things constantly and suddenly I’ll get a different shrine effect, and then a different one. So the whole thing about shrine effects lasting 10 minutes won’t be properly used if I keep activating new ones. I guess it depends on how often that activates.

We talk about Diablo 3 in this thread.
(Helping out instant0)
- Break 50 objects. (Impossible achievement? I’ve never seen this many objects in one area, I’ve been trying to get this for hundreds of hours of play now. I always run out of objects to destroy).
This is easiest if you have a passive that will break objects for you (like the Monk’s Sweeping Wind) and are in an area with a lot of breakable things. Not just urns and barrels and such, but other objects in the environment also destruct. Places like the Royal Crypt, Ruins of Corvus, or the Winding pathway in the Pathways of the Damned are great areas to find a lot of destructible elements. And to do it fast, just be fast so jack up your speed as much as possible and do it on an easy enough difficulty that you can withstand collecting a bucket-load of fodder to clean up afterwards.
That’s one of my fave powers to have equipped from the Mad Monarch’s Scepter. The others I tend to like are the Fan of Knives explosion and the immunity to arcane (and heals 25% of damage dealt) from Countess Julia’s Cameo (which I practically always have if it’s available).
I’m on a roll.
:-\
Last death was kinda surprising, took about 2 seconds from being engaged until I was dead… didn’t even have time to react. Was one of those Sith-mobs with drain life lightning.
Oh no – You need to have a wake or something for that monk.
That Crusader who I was playing the story with? The one who reached Act 3 and was level 54? I took him to Adventure mode yesterday and did all 5 act bounties, which got him up to level 66. Leveling is soooooo much faster in Adventure mode compared to Story mode.
Ow. Losing my HC Necro after 21 hours was bad enough. But 135 hours? Shit, that’s like losing grandpa.
I’m in a hardcore branch of a long-time gaming guild (Amazon Basin) and once in a while you see death notices for people. Usually it’s in the beginning of a season and it’s not a big deal, but once in a while you get the “…after 340 hours” types. Ugh.
Even though all you lose is the gear and associated gems, that’s lot of money and time (for legendary gems). Hundreds of millions of gold worth of gems, often.

I used to post on the basin back in the early d2 days. Was part of the group that figured out how javazons could be effective back when nobody was playing them. Good times and good people.
Did they ever figure out a way for Bowazons to be effective? I finally managed to get one in Hell difficulty, but on Players 8 mode, she just didn’t do enough damage to kill enemies. Their health regeneration was so high, that the damage I did was counteracted by their health regeneration unless I could keep firing at the same enemy for many minutes in a row. Basically I hit a hard wall of difficulty on Hell. She’s still alive mind you. Unlike most of my other hardcore characters, but she can’t kill anything.
Oh good heavens yes. Multishot was a top-tier build. Strafe was something approaching viable with the right gear IIRC, and Frozen Arrow could do hilarious things. I believe I had level 70+ of all three, but it was an awful long time ago and I may never have played Strafe that deep.
Mine had a maxed out Frozen Arrow. She could stay alive thanks to the Valkyrie. I had such a hard time trying to get my Bowazon to get through the second difficulty tier. At first all my Amazons were dying in that difficulty tier. And then I finally figured out that the Valkyrie was key to surviving. If I had a high level Valkyrie, I could survive, even in Single player on Players 8.
But on Hell difficulty, I could use Frozen Arrow to freeze huge groups of enemies for a few seconds at a time (freeze duration was severely cut down on Hell difficulty) but just couldn’t kill them. The main problem was that the bows in the game were really low damage. I never played on Battlenet or did any trading, we only played on a LAN among friends, so I didn’t even know trading was a thing.
It’s been a long time, but as I recall, you really had to have a Buriza and pretty much nothing else. I think Buriza was literally twice the damage of any other bow in game. Bowazon was a very very specific gear set to be effective, and amazons in general sort of suck until they are geared with BIS stuff. I had both a javazon (with titans something or other) and a bowazon that were 90+, and both pretty ridiculous. This was maybe around 1.09, or even before. No idea where it stands now.
Nah. Buriza was great for multishot but hardly required.
This build is just ridiculous, health bar never even moves.
Yesterday the achievement to take 6 characters to level 70 popped for me. Which is really strange. True, I took my Crusader to 70, finally. But in addition I had a Witch Doctor, Monk, Demon Hunter and Wizard to 70. So that’s only 5 characters. I feel like I cheated somehow.
My Barbarian in hardcore is level 6. I still need to get him through story mode so I can unlock Adventure mode in hardcore and get him to 70, and beat Diablo and Maltheil.

But how’s your DPS? What level are you able to Solo?
Looks similar to LazyStorm. Do you have a full build link?
My sheet damage is 1.2 mill, and that’s before any of the crazy ramping stuff kicks in. I can one shot T13 rift bosses. All I do with this build is get 15 stacks of bone armor and walk through the level. Most of the time I don’t even bother to cast decrepify or bone spirit.
I’m going to try and really get BIS rolls and gear for this I think, just to see how far I can push. This has never been a push build though, I was just looking for an easy farmer, this is about as easy as it gets for farming and leveling gems etc. Most push builds are centered around the big/long cooldowns, as they just out-damage everything else, that’s not really my intention.
Here’s the current build and gear. Funny thing about this is, most of my gear sucks, it’s not even close to optimized.

Pretty much the same build here.
Just looking for a decent Wisdom of Kalan; haven’t been able to find one yet. :(
Just (barely) finished a GR70 earlier this evening, so now I can finally get primal drops.

I briefly played with this build. Bone armor stacks? I thought it just renewed / refreshed. At least from the UI it seemed like that. There was a number next to it, but that was from the number of creatures affected it seemed.
