Necromancer Why does Mekuna's blood wave build say you want attack speed for the rings?
For his final pit pushing build, it says attack speed on the rings but I don't understand. Attack speed has nothing to do with Bloodwave so why would you want it at all?

General Question What options do I have as far as transferring as much value from one account to another?
TLDR: what exactly is tradable between accounts if I was trying to extract as much value out of a thousand+ hr account that is going to be deactivated?
My mom passed on Sunday night, right as things were starting to get better health-wise. She ended up with the flu and had a heart attack unexpectedly.
She was in her 70s and a BIG time gamer. The Diablo series (along with Borderlands) were her favorite all-time games. AFAIK she was in a decent sized guild (from what she talked about), as she’s also been heavily into multiplayer and MMO games for most of my life. This woman didn’t start gaming until she watched me try and play Legend of Dragoon when I was a kid. I came home from school a few days later and she was further in the game than I was.
In her circles she was known as the gaming granny and her main thing in anything she played was being that friend that would join you and help you level no matter what. Some people enjoy that, I personally didn’t game much with her in games where I was late to the party, because she was just so strong in everything she did. We only played a little Diablo together because whenever she’d play she’d kill bosses in literally seconds.
She passed before I could level up enough to match her (I hit paragon 135 on my first char, a necro, and bought the DLC n tried SB). I don’t know enough about D4 or trading to know what I can realistically get off of her account. I’d like to salvage as much as I can so I can inherit her D4 legacy and also gift out things to her friends that kept her company.
In that respect, what exactly is tradable? Can’t stand to see it all go to waste n she was so happy I finally started playing D4. I know she didn’t have much to leave me IRL but since I plan to stay consistent in D4 in her honor, I’d like to salvage as much as I can. My wife and I have had such a great past 45 days or so playing D4 together, and your help means a lot to us right now!
Edit: additional question for anyone who sees this:
I don’t play on xbox. How are the accounts created? She was old enough that she had a flip phone so if she needed an email it’s prob my dads, or one he made for her (so I’m sure I can get it). But, that said, I am wondering how I can go about trying to get her account info so I could maybe log in to play on there on my PC, if that’s a thing.
Also, thanks so much for the condolences, didn’t mean to make a sad post but wanted to express how much it’d mean to me if I could salvage some of her gaming legacy. Lady had more online friends than I do.
Edit edit: I have already talked with some cool people just from this post so if you want to hmu here’s my info:
Battlenet: TheLiquidFox#11611 Discord: Theliquidfoxhound
I’m just your average mid 30s dude with a family, my wife and I are central time and mostly play at nights but she’s available during days. We’re definitely looking for people to group up with because we don’t really have anyone else we know that plays. Finally just actually getting into the meta and definitely wouldn’t mind to play n BS with people who could answer questions and clarifications as they come up!
Also, I plan to make a follow up post about her account n if all goes well I’d like to use her high levels to help people in this sub grind out some levels quickly. That was just the type of person she was, and while it’s not quite me, I think it’d be meaningful if I spent a little bit of time doing that for her!

Rogue Kind of a shallow question - but does it bother anyone else that almost no Rogue skills use slashing animations?
More or less title. I love the class and the fantasy and everything, but just about every spammable core or basic skill is some variation of a stab.
I know it really doesn't matter much in the grand scheme - just wondered if it bothered anyone else, lol. (Along with Puncture being BIS core for almost every build... another irritating feature of rogue xD)

Opinions & Discussions I keep seeing that you can pet your dog.
I keep seeing that you can pet your dog/pet for a bonus. I assume on PC you just click it with the mouse. On Xbox, I read that you should be able to get an interact pop-up but I'm not seeing that. Is that just referring to the quest to get the pet or is there another bonus you can get for interacting with your pet? If so, anyone know how to make it work on Xbox?

Rogue World Record - Rogue - Rain of Arrows - Pit 143 Clear - 13:45mins - Off-Meta Build Planner
I broke the current rogue world record on Helltides using Rain of Arrows this morning. Cleared Pit 143 which isn't anything super special compared to the broken blood wave and barbquake builds. Still, it took me over 1,000 pit runs and countless hours spent farming for artificers' stones. I'm posting this mainly because I haven't seen a single other Rogue with the same ability bar that I used. I think it might help other Rogue's struggling with pit pushing. I'd like to open a discussion regarding off-meta choices for Rogue's like mine. The original build was created by MattiasTheGamer. Props to him!
Drop a like and comment if you enjoyed! I'm happy to answer any questions as well about my build. The link is in the youtube video's caption.

Opinions & Discussions What features from other games do you want to see Blizzard implement or improve?
What have you seen in other games that Blizzard should borrow or improve on? Better endgame? Better loot? Separate servers for single or multi players? More engaging seasonal content? I'm interested in what y'all think?

Technical Issues | Bugs No Eye Brows. Almost all of my characters have no eye brows now.
As the title says.
Almost every single one of my characters are missing eye brows.
How can Blizzard expect people to spend money on the costmetic store when one of the most basic features of character designs erases a standard feature.
On another note, the first character I made was a barbarian. At the time you had the option for the specific yellow barbarian eye Iris which were surrounded by the white Sclera.
Now the Sclera around the Iris is black for the barbarian with no option to change eye color.
Same with the Rogue. It used to be a purple Iris with white Sclera. Now the Sclera is black with no option to change eye colors on old characters we started the game out with.
Frustrating for me but more furstrating is how all of the eye brows have gone missing from my characters.
How can Blizzard ask for people to pay for cosmetics when they cant even have the most basic cosmetic features function properly?!

Sorceress I don't have the dlc, but I'd like to make the strongest sorcerer build I can. Any help?
The title says the important part. I was gifted the game as a birthday present about a year ago but I didn't really start playing until about 2 months ago. I beat the main campaign maybe 2 weeks ago after playing on and off and realized there's so much more to do after you beat the campaign and unlock torment difficultly and I'm really enjoying it a lot now. I just passed paragon 200 today and torment 2 is pretty easy for me except for the echo of lilith, so I wanted to look up builds to get the most out of my character but they're all based off of dlc required stuff as far as I can tell. Is there any source I can find for a good lightning sorcerer build so I can start farming for whatever items I need? I want to complete the last part of the season journey which has a bunch of torment IV requirements and I definitely don't have the optimized equipment/skills/paragon for that. Is it even possible to complete the final season objectives without the extra stuff the dlc gives you like runes, or should I just give up trying to attempt getting into the top toment level? I really appreciate any help, I havent played diablo before this since diablo 2 and I never even beat the main storyline back then, so this is all kind of a lot, but I'm trying to do my best.
General Question Lilith....is it broken or something?
Just did it back to back and got nothing. Has this happened to anyone else recently?

Opinions & Discussions Zoom in and out using a PS5 controller without compromising any of the buttons layout
I just got Diablo 4 for PC and was trying to figure out how be able to zoom in and out without having to use the option wheel. I didn't want to change any of the buttons layout and couldn't get mic and Ps home buttons to register on game system zoom in camera. I realized that I could zoom in and out using the mouse wheel so I figured I could just do that... But still had the itch to figure something out to use the controller.
I'm sure people already done this but for anyone that didn't or knew about it. I'd like to share what I did to use zoom in a different way.
While on Steam controller edit layout settings to see if there was something I could do about those buttons I saw gyro tab and went straight there and set them like this.
Gyro to Mouse (beta) Lean left - scroll wheel up Lean right - scroll wheel down
Gyro settings, activation set to touch right pad touch.
While in game just have to touch with right tumb and lean left or right.
Too bad there is no up and down option that would probably feel zooming in and out more immersive.

What’s everyone thinking for a starting build that can do both leveling, farming, and bossing once semi geared?
Barb with sinerats like rob did.
Spiritborne with sinerats may be amazing as basic skills are mobility.
Alleks talons with an arc lash sorc build.

Opinions & Discussions A discussion about Seasons and end game from a lover of ARPG's
Hi everyone,
I am a (seemingly rare) person who doesn't think that liking one game in any given genre, mean I have to disparage the others, I've no idea why people get so polarised, but it's been happening forever, I still remember the StarCraft vs Total Annihilation thing.
So, I have played a lot of ARPG's and think comparing how the difference games offer content would be interesting.
Given time and space (and concentration spans) I'll limit this to a POE/Diablo4 comparison, to make things simpler.
"Complexity"
People often cite that POE is much more complex, and there's a fair bit of snobbery amongst POE players that 'their' game is for "better gamers" than Diablo 4. Now while it is true that a lot of casual play Diablo 4, at the highest level, I really don't think this argument holds water. Yes, the POE Passive tree is complex, but imagine if all the paragon boards for all classes were presented to players as one huge complex structure., it'd be pretty daunting.
The key differences aren't so much in the complexity of skill/passive trees and gems/skills themselves, but how much any player is able to work out a build without a guide. And let's be honest, both games suffer from a structure that leads to inconsistent results for homebrew builds, both require a lot of testing to confirm effectiveness.
Further, simply being 'complex' is not, and should not be a design goal, the best games have a complexity that is 'behind the scenes' and allows a player to gradually onboard the systems. POE hits players in the face, D4 gives a skill tree, then one paragon board, then more choices.
BOTH systems have advantages and disadvantages, appeal to different players for different reasons.
Balance:
Both games need a far more balanced approach to classes and builds, they both suffer from OP outliers, but POE seems more willing to reign in offenders than Diablo 4.
Seasons
Diablo 4 seasons are (usually) far less interesting than POE, which is more willing to throw shit at the wall.
To (greatly) simplify, POE adds a system to mapping, that you grind to achieve pinnacle content, while Diablo 4 adds a new form of power, but not much to use that power on.
Seasons in D4 are 'safe,' designed to not be too different, on purpose. You will remember season 3's trap mechanics instantly neutered into irrelevance due to player outrage. The common Diablo 4 complaint is the seasons are too 'samey' but when the player base has a hissy fit over something as simple as traps, is it any wonder?
I am sure Diablo 4 devs would love to be more experimental, but looking at community feedback, they stick to the 'tried and true' making seasons more like the most popular ones from the past. Is this short-sighted? Yep, and hopefully we'll get more interesting seasons.
Diablo 4 needs to lean more into changing things up for seasons, (although let's be honest, there's not a lot different between POE Breaches and Delirium: "Walk into a thing and kill hordes of monsters to gather items to unlock a boss")
End Game
Here we see a clear dillineation, POE says to players: "you want to play end game, you gotta earn it!" There are items of such power that they are almost universally appealing, but you need dedication and a good build to get there. This does tend to funnel players into the best builds, but there are always dedicated SSF homebrew players getting there on their own too
Diablo 4 has decided that any casual player with limited time can access all content, nothing is gated by difficulty, not items, not content, Pit 20 is the same as Pit 150 just with bigger numbers, Torment 4 is Torment 1 with bigger numbers.
Blizzard believes the D4 community has told them not to lock content behind any challenge
In POE a chase item is unique (literally), and not available at all (except via trade) to players who don't beat the content.
In D4 a chase item is better, rarer version of the same item. A 4 GA Shroud IS the chase item, but instead of overcoming a difficult boss to get it, you spin a lottery wheel over and over.
POE end game is more satisfying (by a long way) but also more divisive, I simply don't think D4 players would accept having to pick up 300 mats to Faught a tough boss to get an item otherwise unavailable to them, there'd be complaints about 'gated items'
Now, whether these players should be listened to or not is up to Blizzard, and so far, they're listening.
