I Play Diablo III Because of Path of Exile's Problems

Ive given it a lot of thought and Im starting to hate PoE now and love D3

I mean, RoS knows what loot is good for your class, just by knowing your class !
how cool is that, dudes ?

in Poe Im playing a shadow that doesnt rely on power charges or CI and I got eye of chayula and romiras banquet, what a stupid game, doesnt even know what build I'm going to play. phooey !

while we're at it, I'm tired of stupid scaling of skills, all so different and tough to remember- I literally have to consult a encyclopedia (online one- thank god for that).

I can't even one-shot discharge everyone just by investing all my wealth in my mirrored 500 dps 1h weapon. what the hell ? skills should all be tied to weapon damage.

also poe is pay to win now. dumbasses win every time and spray fireworks everytime Im trying to vendor shit.

but, the final straw that broke the camels back- nailbiter. my favorite legendary in d3

such a great legendary. wow. best legendary of ALL TIME. Im in love.

all poe has is shitty uniques that either used for leveling or you need bunch of other gear to complement.


so until nailbiter is introduced into the game, Im taking a break from poe and playing the beauty that is D3: RoS.

Well I've just said that you're wrong about the loot in general, PoE is the loot shower, not D3.
Of course you play what you like, you don't even have to say that.

Yeah, RoS isnt a loot shower. It's a rare loot shower. Rares drop like crazy and are useless... You basically just run around until you beam of light every hour or two... Rares dropping so much just means teleporting back to town more often.

I don't use much rarity at all in PoE and even then I'm vendoring inventories full of rares on quite a regular basis. They're all useless rares mostly but it's never taken long to fill up my inventory.

I haven't played RoS much, do have it but didn't buy the original so just testing out classes for now but as far as rares go it seems about the level of PoE. Certainly more legendaries though at lower levels due to the 2-hour limit.

PoE is a rare loot shower too, on top of normal/magic. And rares are a lot more useless than rares in D3, because people vendor rare items unidentified.

I have half of my gear as rares, and I'm not waiting for a beam of light, I'm waiting for higher rolls and better mod combos, so I can replace one mod for another one. If you're looking only at those 3 numbers as a comparison, you're doing it wrong.

What's the point you're trying to make anyway?

From what I understand, you usually want your rares in diablo 3 to drop with 4 primary mods. That's up to rng though, it is more likely to find rares with only 3 primary mods.

On top of that, to be a desirable rare, 3 out of the 4 primary mods need to be "useful" for your build. Why 3 out of 4? Well because with crafting, you can ensure that one mod is changed to the type of mod you want.

Which primary mods you want, depends on which gear part.

Furthermore, the mods themselves can roll significantly different values. It is a significant difference to roll +15% arcane power compared to only roll +10% arcane power. (See it as roughly 15% more dmg vs 10% more dmg).

So it takes quite some time to get your rares perfect. And to get legendaries that beat your perfect rares, take even longer time and to get perfect legendaries => just a dream.

(Edit: then there is set gear too, and to get perfect set gear is another dream)

Sounds cool at first, but it also means that itemiziation and character customization is very bland. Something like this wouldn't be possible in PoE.

The drops could be based on your talent tree I suppose. So if you got many life nodes and cold dmg % nodes => easier to get life and cold dmg drops. Compensate by lowering the rare drop ratio.

Or maybe no more 1 life regen and similar crap.

customization ? lol who needs that ?
on the contrary, it works well because I get BiS rares for two classes at the same time !
no time wasting rerolling !

all I want is a big deeeps

Will there ever be an AI smart enough to decide whether your build needs Resistances or Reduced Attribute Requirements? Damage Return or Life? Increased Block Percentage or Stun Recovery?
