** Diablo 4 Thread **

Thanks. I can't think if I did get that far across the map, but I definitely didn't get a notification so probably wasn't online at the time. Is the beta starting at 4pm again this Friday?

Also, can you share any (non class specific) equipment between your own characters?

Yep should be 4pm, very good chance the servers struggle and there's a long queue

You can put items in your stash in the central town and share between chars, can't remember if you can put extracted aspects in to stash though
 
I'll give it another go this weekend and try the Necro I think. I've been in minion build mode on Last Epoch recently so it will be interesting to see how D4 feels on that front.

Reading what the endgame holds it sounds like there is a lot more on offer than D3 had/has, the Paragon system doesn't sound too imaginative though, still better than D3 it would seem.
 
To be honest I never saw any notification of a world boss in chat or on my screen as a system message, the only thing I could see was the icon in the world boss area appeared and it has an inverse progress bar showing how long until it spawned. When it wasn't up or when the event wasn't soon active there no was icon at all.

Yeah, I don't remember getting a notification either. An icon just appeared on the map with a countdown timer for the boss appearing. As others have said, you also must have discovered the area for the icon to show up.

I saw something here the other day, what was the item level stuff about with regards to drops?

I think some people were theorising that drops are based on your currently bagged item level, so holding higher level items in your inventory gave a higher range of natural drops; but, I don't think this is the case and drops are actually based on the monster level.

Thanks for the heads up! Hopefully they get a fix out for that.

I hope this isn't true as it sounds daft! I don't want to carry stuff around just to min/max drop rates.

Rod confirmed drops are tuned higher in the beta, so we'll see less legendaries in live (thankfully).

Bit disappointed as I felt as a casual player, it really helped to improve the game play. I just don't have the time to spend hours and hours grinding away, hoping I get a new piece of equipment. In the beta I found something new and interesting every 30 minutes or so. Even if it wasn't a direct improvement in stats, I found something which allowed me to try a new play style, with new skills. If they are going to reduce the drops, I wont be buying it on day one.

There are pros and cons to this but I think I'd prefer to have to work a bit at the gearing and getting drops, than having everything spoon fed to me!
