the worst part about this shit is how fast the items become useless. when I find a lightning resist blue in normal in D2 I happily use it all the way to hell in some cases. its nice to find this kind of stuff every now and then
that would take effort copying the most basic system every AAA game uses is much simpler and guarantees hordes of journalist will praise it as deep because they cannot fail to make builds
Whenever anyone is talking about these dumbass ARPG stats people are always saying shit like >5% chance to shoot a poison bolt out of my feet whenever I cast a firebolt? >KINO!!!! >SOUL!!!!!

I love nerfs. Thank god they only had multiple betas to get this shit fixed for launch.

I just bought it on ps5. I'm going to play local coop like I did with 3 with my friend. We popped the story and had FUN.
As long as I can have fun again just fricking up goblin boys and demons with my bro I don't care about any of the autistic side of this game type. Who would want to play a game more than once or twice lmao have sex
>DEAR SIR I AM DOING THE NEEDFUL SIR AND PURCHASING OF YOUR GAME SIR >VERY FUN, SIR, INDUSTRIAL STANDARD OF VIDEO GAMING ENTHUSIASM SIR
Yeah it's a troony company with God awful business practices but how many local coops come out each year on console... I used to believe in vote with your wallet until about 2013 when I realised people will buy anything and praise everything mindlessly. Now I've learned to just enjoy what little is left of this pozzed hobby because everything for the last decade has been different flavours of shit .
If I can get 15 hours of coop fun with my friends in person then it's worth the money
You could just take your friends and go on a hike or go downtow and hit on girls. It's 0$ and more fun than playing Blizzslop.
But you're probably all obese and autistic so those aren't options for you.
I have friends who are both obese and autistic and we would still go hiking and shit at least twice a month, it costs more than $0 to do that but it's nice to spend a weekend away from all the bullshit. Genuinely believe if more people would just disconnect from the internet for a few days they would be much happier.
Yeah the point is you dont need to be constanlty playing games. If all games are bad or mediocre just take a break and don't give companies like Blizzshart money for their soulless products.
>If I can get 15 hours of coop fun with my friends in person then it's worth the money
It's 70 dollars. What happened to $1 per hour of fun as the appropriate minimum?

Only in the sense that its 30 points you can put in vitality to make your already obnoxiously high vitality character have even more life.
This cope is so fricking moronic, people don't care about any of that shit, they only care about +2 all skills because +skills is the most useful stat in the game. Pretending this itemization is any better when people do not care and will wear a diarrhea green hat for those sweet +skills is what is dumb.
Attack speed is the most useful stat in the game. It's hard as frick to reach proper breakpoints without something like Andariel's (or a moronic amount of israeliteels)
no it had two auction houses one where you spend just regular gold and another where you spend real money. they couldn't let the gold auction house stay so they killed both at the same time
Why does Diablo get shit so hard when every arpg is the same? You just hit shit and hope your numbers make it. At least in Diablo you use more than one spell.
don't be disingenuous you fricking Black person, that's a bug that allows the barb to infinite scale whirlwing damage, it isn't supposed to work like that
>gloves are called Fists of Fate >has a bunch of RNG Rolls for affixes >clearly a meme unique item for most, but might work if people invest hard into Lucky Hit Chance (which Barb in particular can do because of investing into Polearms) >this makes Ganker absolutely fricking seethe for some reason
?????
Honestly looks poor for luck based gear maybe if some of the effects had better odds or did something actually interesting It could be fun to use but instead its shit your never going to really notice and a chance to just frick ya over not even worth using for a fun meme build
m-maybe it's good with a high lucky hit chance build?
i agree it's incredibly underwhelming though
is there any reason at all why they wouldnt just copy D2 item system?
simplistic itemization is easier for the numbers-go-up crowd to grasp

Because it's garbage.
>Dude mf on every slot so you can farm for gear you don't even need because you are already strong enough to farm
>diablo 4 has simple stats so its bad!
>diablo 4 has too many stats so its bad!
Make up your fricking mind, troglodytes.
"Randomly deal between 1% and 300% damage" is bad.
but anyone can see that any roll above 200% is a dps increase. it's a not flavorful dps increase but it is one nonetheless.
wouldn't that be above 100%?
No, because you have to go by the average. Since it will only surpass 100% damage (so, your average) once you go over the 1-200% range.
Above 100%, moron. 100%.
is it + 1% or that wide range lightning damage bullshit?
No, it's not +1%. It's between 1% and 200-300% of normal damage, for all attacks.
Bullshit.
Whenever anyone is talking about these dumbass ARPG stats people are always saying shit like
>5% chance to shoot a poison bolt out of my feet whenever I cast a firebolt?
>KINO!!!!
>SOUL!!!!!
It's a fricking meme unique weapon.
>it's dull on purpose
You fricking whiny stupid idiot, Elden Ring is a trash game
Shazam lost
>dumb newbie says dumb shit
Kindly go frick yourself.
Get fricked homosexual
>uhhh what are unique items
the only stat on those gloves is armor. those diceroll effects aren't stats
For Storm Druid, this Item could bei good
Say goodbye to your Druid frens.
I am just glad they are rolling this shit out frequently. Now buff useless shit you morons, not only nerfs
First time? Blizzard only know how to nerf, probably next year with the first paid expansion they will touch the shit skills.
>blizzard
>buffing anything that benefits players
lol
lmao
>be barb
>go full thorns
>afk in pvp zone
>people attack me and fall over

What happened to that game anyway? They announced it and everyone laughed at them but now I don't see anyone mention it anywhere.
>Stop playing for a few days
>Boot up game
>Class is entirely different and unusable
I love nerfs. Thank god they only had multiple betas to get this shit fixed for launch.
WHEW AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>randomly deal 1% to 280% [200-300]%
what the frick???
Item power
Level x
Account bound
X percent chance of y for z time
All this needs is a fingerless gloves meter
>All this needs is a fingerless gloves meter
qrd?
>mhhh, maybe I can get specific gear in order to get always lucky hits
>lol jk it's a flat percentage

those are good, it means on average with that roll you're dealing 140% damage so its a 40% increase plus a bunch of lucky hit shit.
You can't build around it. Uniques should inspire you to try a build, this is just an outrageous but boring effect.
>anon doesn't enjoy the thrill of rolling dice and oneshotting a bunch of shit in a row

yeah, that's pretty useful if you ask me
This cope is so fricking moronic, people don't care about any of that shit, they only care about +2 all skills because +skills is the most useful stat in the game. Pretending this itemization is any better when people do not care and will wear a diarrhea green hat for those sweet +skills is what is dumb.
You didn't play the game. Andariels was primarily used as an A2 merc helmet where +skills are not that useful.
>+skills on act 2 merc
>not useful
So this is the power of D2morons... Impressive....
It really isnt. +2 on the aura doesn't make a huge difference. Mercs wore it for IAS, strength and LL.
Attack speed is the most useful stat in the game. It's hard as frick to reach proper breakpoints without something like Andariel's (or a moronic amount of israeliteels)
Black person did you just take a picture of the screen wtf
watch your language young man
how is it possible than in 2023 there still people as moronic as OP that have no fricking idea how to take a screenshot from their game?
Not defending D4 but D2 had a shit ton of worthless unique items and even more uniques that were usually overshadowed by runewords.
Don't play the game made by pedophiles and you're good to go.
>chance to proc on top of chance to proc
fricking moronic
So is Diablo 4 just a P2W trash game? Still shitty and nowhere close to Diablo 2 + LoD?
Not P2W just bland as frick.
Didn't Diablo 3 have some sort of auction house bullshit to buy items, or am I thinking of a different game?
no it had two auction houses one where you spend just regular gold and another where you spend real money. they couldn't let the gold auction house stay so they killed both at the same time
Why does Diablo get shit so hard when every arpg is the same? You just hit shit and hope your numbers make it. At least in Diablo you use more than one spell.
What does up to mean?
>1 week
>People are already doing billions of dps
Not sure why I expected it to be different this time.
don't be disingenuous you fricking Black person, that's a bug that allows the barb to infinite scale whirlwing damage, it isn't supposed to work like that
There are better builds doing more dmg than that.
>there are builds doing more damage than an infinite scaling damage whirlwind
alright post them then
well for starters, they said it would be
not that anyone should have believed them
but they still said it would be different
kek
I don't think that these games are for you. Numbers are the thing that drives these people to continue playing.
>gloves are called Fists of Fate
>has a bunch of RNG Rolls for affixes
>clearly a meme unique item for most, but might work if people invest hard into Lucky Hit Chance (which Barb in particular can do because of investing into Polearms)
>this makes Ganker absolutely fricking seethe for some reason
?????
Is that a fun unique item in my super serious meta obsessed spreadsheeted theory crafted videogame?!!?
The strongest effect on the item, the unique effect, can't be built around. It's not fun, because you can't use it as the core of a build.
can someone explain to someone who never played ARPGs why this is bad? seems cool stuff
is it because it lacks "standard" stats like str and agi?
how does one get those stats tho? only by leveling up?
Honestly looks poor for luck based gear maybe if some of the effects had better odds or did something actually interesting It could be fun to use but instead its shit your never going to really notice and a chance to just frick ya over not even worth using for a fun meme build
