Anyone else hate the Imperial Gardens?

the stupidity of the avian retches can be used to your advantage

just make sure that any mobs you kill die close together, then pull the retches
they will run to the killing ground you left :D pewpew
you can attack them while the animation runs

granted you have to be very aware of the position of packs and so on

they also seem to have lower hp/armor than most mobs there, kinda like the chaos spitting things in the act2 pyramid, deal high damage but also eat alot of damage

when i completed that part of act3 the first time, it felt like an accomplishment :)

to the desynch part i can only say: stop leaping :D helped me alot

Imperial garden sucks cause of fps drop for me (from 60 to around 30). And this combined with every fast mob having the desync special ability like those devourers? meh, i just try to get waypoints as fast as possible and forget about this shit.

What Henk said, minus the colorful metaphor. :)

I dont mind porcipines at all though. There is clear dislike for them in this thread which has taken me back a bit tbh. Maybe its because I have high armour characters?!?!

You obviously havnt run a character with minions through the porcupines :(
This is one of the few maps i dont even bother ressing zombies, skele totem all the way..

act 1 and act 2 rulez!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For me it's like D2. I love a1 and a2 and hate a3 to death. I am optimistic that a4 will make up for the shitty a3 though. I am thinking volcanic area.

aka The Land of the Burrowing Storm Herald of Desync. I lost my first Nemesis Duelist here, and I hate going back.

I was a bit surprised with the layout because of desync however, I really like it. Its similar to the monkey-jungle before act2 which is prob my favourite zone.

I can't stand the statues though. Those ice arrow archers are just so annoying. I would happily remove them from the entire game and double the amount of devourer spawns :-/

I would gladly see a map mod "No statues" that would grant -10% IIQ.

+1. Op

All of 3.X is over the top... at least in cruel difficulty/HC. I've over leveled it by 10 levels and more and I still can't see myself trying Domi yet.
