Thanks for that. Did you spend your paragon points in the Resist all section? I may have a play around tonight to see if I can find a nice balance. Any tips on farming gold quickly? Gold seems to be the limiting factor in upgrading gems.

Yeah I put most of my defensive paragon points into resist all, when I felt I was comfortable from a survival perspective I started adding some into life regen at that point. A lot of people tend to do their bounties on Normal, I would advise doing them on expert if you can because you can still breeze through them and you will get more gold and xp once you're done. I get a few million a night doing bounties on expert.

EDIT - Also whilst doing bounties, consider sacrificing one of your abilities for Sprint to help you get them done faster.
 
I have been spending all my shards at Kadala for a Mirrorball, but no luck yet. Instead I got this Oculus. The CD reduction on Teleport with the effect is awesome, I can teleport so often that it definitely speeds up my bounties/rifts on the lower torments!

Excuse the low damage range it's from the armory, I think in game it's like 310-360 or so.

Also does anyone have a ridiculous number of rift shards? I keep running out, but if someone wants I would happily invite them at the end of each rift for the shards/XP if they don't mind opening my next one up for me :D

Normal mode? i was under the impression that higher difficulty gave better drops? Also what does split farm mean?

Its quicker doing bounties on normal to get rift shards for higher level difficulties as better items drop in rifts.

Split farming is where a group does one act each so everyone gets the bounty rewards.
 
I thought split farming was when multiple people do different bounties in the same act? Is it best to split up across the acts then? Guessing you still get the rewards if you are in a different act?

You can do it whichever way, you still get bounty rewards from other acts when people hand it in, so in some ways doing different acts is better as you can just focus on your own act.
 
Those bracers could be pretty nice with a leap barb and using the stun rune on that/furious charge. You could just stack up damage everywhere with little toughness? While trying to keep everything stunned ofc. Wonder if it counts even though it's not "your stud" that stuns the mob? If so, 2 barbs running those bracers and leap builds = O_O
 
I'm having loads of fun on reaper of souls lately. I've been doing a lot of nephalem rifts today and got quite a few good drops. I've never gotten a green item before and today I got three!

I'm always up for T1 rifts whenever I'm online, hit me up valkynaz#2741
 
So having spent nearly 3000 shards on shields trying to get jekanbord, one actually just drops for me off a random rift mob. Then a better one the day after. Then... The day after that (yesterday) I get gyrfalcons foote, so now I'm spamming blessed shield all over the place.

Not sure if I'm 100% liking it ATM though, prefer to use a 2h weapon so want burst of wrath axe to see if that can keep up on the wrath generation.
 
What's the best way to gear a naked powerleveled character? Buy vendor loot and play normal adventure mode?

Join a T1 adventure mode and stay back. Rare items are very frequent drops and you will be able to gear up in no time. Plus you may get lucky and get a few legendaries.

If you are online later on tonight (around 9PM) I'll be online then for quite a while and can run you through some nephalem rifts to gear you up. ID = valkynaz#2741.
 
Finally managed to get some decent Inna's pieces on my monk. 4 piece bonus is just nuts, shame it doesn't work with Unity though, but I now give: 15% damage, 10% attack speed, 12.5k life regen, 17% dodge and a 100% weapon damage shield to everyone in my group. Such a massive boost!

Nice one, look forward to giving it a go :)
 
Ring of Royal Grandeur really opens up some interesting gearing options. Been trying out Asheara's 4 piece today. Quite fun although not convinced yet. May be useful in the event of a DC to buy some extra time with their CC and general distraction. They seem to be up about 50% of the time. Considering dropping the boots for Captain Crimson's belt and boots for the 2k LpS, 50 All res, 10% CD reduction and -10% resource cost bonuses. Not really sure how much I'll notice that though in the grand scheme of things. I'm definitely interested in a bit more healing though. Gained a lot of toughness making the set. 21.5m toughness with Pinpoint armor up.
