Don't go straight for the highest grift you can do though. Sometimes it benefits from doing the lower ones and working through them for the legendary gems you can get. You also will be able to level those gems if you complete the grrift within the time limit. If you skip right to the hardest difficulty right away you would miss that (though of course you could go back and do them at a later date I guess)

EDIT: I didn't read why you wanted grifts properly (or at least my brain didn't register lol) and you wanted the grift 20 for the season thingy. In that case you could rush to 20 then go back for 'easy' gems/gem levels

T9 is 33% extra chance of a 2nd cache legendary, where as T10 is 75% extra chance.

If T10 doesn't take you much longer, then it might be worth farming T10. Should get a ring pretty quickly like that.

thanks for that, i didnt know. Did a little tweaking with a few new pieces and can do T10 now but not sure if it very fast yet. Will give it a go. Cheers.

Depends which build you are going for, but you'll want stuff like Hack, Pig Sticker and Doombringer. Heavenly Strength does decrease damage by 20% but you can still use a shield so it's not so bad.

Fibby, did you ever spec a LonBomb ? I hear it meant to be crazy OP. Ie faster at clearing than even a FC barb? Think i got all the pieces may build one myself too lol need to read up on it first.

LoN Bomb crusader is crazy good at the moment. I have managed to clear a 72 GRift and get to position 595 on the solo Crusader leaderboard (non season).

I still have a couple of upgrades I need but with them I think i could be pushing 76+

Need one of the ancient rings, ancient Nemesis bracers and a better Hellfire Ammy with Phy dmg and a better passive.

Loving this patch and the game again.

Was having a nice time going head to head on the solo leaderboards with another WD in my clan, did some calculations and turns out he's botting.... 22 hours a day average.

 

[MooMoo444]

Sadly botting is quite commonplace. Even some of the major streamers of the game have playcounts of around 20 hours a day. Blizzard doesn't seem to do anything about it.

Absolutely pointless. Here's you playing legitmately, competing and a cheater just comes along botting his way there. They should get banned.!!

Is that how in some of them are like plevel 2000!!

 

[Ayahuasca]

He hasn't even denied it, in fact he just told everyone outright in clan chat he's doing it.

Apparently the game is boring so he uses the bot overnight to farm keys

 

[Squink]

I wouldn't be surprised if some were able to maintain a genuine 18 hours per day in their efforts to beat some random strangers they'll never meet on a leaderboard that no one will remember next season.

But yes I'm sure some of them are botting.

I think it's a mixture of some are bots and some are just genuinely really good at the game and pretty much since season have been running 95+ rifts getting trillions of xp per hour

 

[Ayahuasca]

Nobody is speedfarming 95's since the season began, it took over a week before people even cleared a 95.

Legit players like Quin are only at 1100 I think and he's been speedfarming high 80's for a few days now.

Having a look through the leaderboards and the majority of people at the top have ridiculous hours that seem very far fetched to keep up for 2 weeks solid.

He should get booted from the clan. No room for cheaters imo whatever their excuse.

Amount of times I play Ark SoTF decked out with full flak, sniper, rocket launcher etc and cheaters turns up with absolutely nothing (naked) and spins around like robocop taking you and other people from across the other side of map with sticks and stones, blatent walling and aimbot .

You know what i mean though.

#1 i don't mean solos
#2 it really didn't take long for 4man groups to start farming 90s+ Quin himself said in his stream the other day this season he has put barley any effort into it compared to other seasons. Im not trying to say all the mega high level paragons are legit but some of them are. I saw someone over paragon 1000 who had around 30 hours playtime... even a bot would not manage to do that so he simply HAD to have been pulled through some crazy rifts. My NS character is only just 1000 now and that took me almost a thousand hours.

EDIT : That said the team who had him in has for some reason been removed from the leaderboards soo......

EDIT 2 : I think really for me the main issue with boting is the fact that so many high profile streamers bot and openly admit it and have nothing done about it. I know Gabby was banned enough times for it. And is clearly boting again this season along with several others like chainer. They all seem to group together in the SoS clan. When they do get banned they just get back to boting and overtake everyone again.

Don't forget in this season you can move a non-season char to season and the hours it's had played carries over.

I wouldn't bother reporting the botter in the clan, it would be petty. It's their choice and if Blizz bans them it's their own fault, however unlikely it is.

 

[Ayahuasca]

Well if they're moving hours over the majority suspiciously have around the same amount.

I won't report him as he's told everyone anyway, not up to me what happens to his account or his spot in the clan. I just think it's rather pathetic when he's gloating in chat about his accomplishments then he tells everyone he's using a bot as soon as he's asked, at least he was honest I guess.

Given he's openly said he does it, it's a cut and dry case. Report him and rid the game of at least one cheater. Doesn't take long, just right click name, go to report, and in the reason box say he admitted botting in chat.

Sorry for all the questions but I have other.

When you use legendary items in the cube does it extract the orange writing section from it to use without having to it equipped?

 

[Kyo]

Yes it is the item's "Legendary Power". (orange bit)

The cube will give you 3 slots for Legendary Powers, 1 for weapons, 1 for armour and 1 for rings.

 

[Dalandius]

Yes and you can "equip" one weapon, one armour and one ring power at a time but you first must extract the power from the item. The item being destroyed in the process.

I totally agree it is pathetic and removes any previous achievement or future on they earn. As for their spot in the clan I got no idea on how things are handled within the clan, I know Caphel is an officer and another guy, the rest don't seem active.

I think we'd all rather someone post than nothing at all

 

[Ayahuasca]

It's not the OCUK clan
