No but really, just play 1.13 PlugY with Single Player.

>>388519502
Try running kurast chests for high runes, I've heard this ladder it's very generous. You want a sorc or enigma for this. What runes you can get depends on the number of players in the game, there's a table for that somewhere on the internet but if you're not looking for anything specific any combination should be fine.

I haven't played it since they nerfed Javazon back in like 1.04 or some shit. I miss spamming lightning javelins into crowds that caused chain reactions of electricity until they all died.

I always start off with a Skelemancer. He's solid as a solo or party character. Decrepify, Clay Golem, and a bit of cold damage will lock down most bosses and keep your minions and party members alive. The only slowdown happens in the Maggot Lair's tunnels when going solo. A point in Dim Vision can save your ass in Hell mode when ranged attackers become a real threat.

As for item farming, I tend to hit the highest difficulty of Travincal/Meph/Baal as my character allows, though Meph drops off in Hell mode if I don't have Teleport available due to Durance 2 becoming fuckhuge. There's also The Pit in Act 1 of Hell mode, as the monster drop levels are exceptionally high and the mobs are nothing you shouldn't be able to handle.

>But, anon! Worldstone Keep is fuckhuge, too!
Yes, but the enemy drops have the potential to make up for it. I've gotten a fair number of endgame set and unique items off standard mobs due to their high levels -- often times getting better gear in the run itself than I get from Baal.

I tried to get back into it the other day but it felt too slow.

I fear I may have become plebeian.

I'm running through Grim Dawn DAIL mod at the moment with the max spawn rates; feels like a good middle ground between Diablo 3 speed and Diablo 2 playstyle.

Amazon Ice Maiden.

>>388520906
What's stopping you from that? Java has been one of the top builds forever.

>>388521123
Isn't that build expensive as fuck to do any sort of damage? Most bows are borderline useless with their pitiful damage.

I will buy the HD version with QoL improvements and proper high resolution display support

Most fun I've ever had.

Fanazealot is where it's at
Dps for the win

>>388521803
Yeah but players can do that with pretty much any class. I just mean in terms of playing for the average person, it felt underpowered; I must admit I never got a full set or anything with it.

I also didn't like the set bonuses for it; too much reliance on cooldown skills, which I never really like for any ARPG characters ever.

I really enjoyed playing as Monk, Demon Hunter, Crusader & Wizard

>>388522352
Anon but wiz is all about cdr. And crusader too to a lesser extent

>>388519502
I only turn it on to prevent my characters from expiring. For all I care, I finished it when I beat hell baal.

>>388522445
I guess I played Wiz wrong (I never used archon because i found it boring af) and crusader I didn't mind as much because 99% of the playstyle is stacking thorns damage anyway.

I only got up to tier 40 with wizard

I honestly don't believe anyone on 4chan plays ARPGs anymore. There's not even an ARPG general on /vg/.

Super annoying because they're the only games I ever want to actually discuss because of the build options and shit.

For instance I love Grim Dawn but its impossible to actually discuss it on 4chan and the official forums are shit.
