A couple things I want to add: Unlike previous iterations of diablo, you DO NOT need to complete the campaign on each difficulty. You only do it on normal. Also, any progress you make towards completing objectives across the map (ie clearing each dungeon for the first time, doing side quests, finding all the lilith alters, etc) is also shared across all difficulties. Most rpgs out there will punish you for skipping all the side quests and just barreling forward with the main quest. D4 will almost punish you if you don’t do this. I went full completionist on my play through and hit level 50 about half way through the second act. I then spent the next 2 days of my play time slogging through the rest of the story and getting almost no xp because paragon levels take a LOT more xp to get through than 1-50, you get very little xp on normal compared to nightmare and you can’t set the game to nightmare difficulty without completing the story. I’m not saying don’t do any of the side stuff, I’m saying make sure you finish the story before you hit 50.
Yeah I made a mistake myself, I'm lvl 53 Druid and about to done with Act 3 quest. I was focused doing most of side quests in Act 1 and 2 alongside with finding all locations on map, finding all Altars of Lilth, clearing out Strongholds and unlocking all Waypoints. So right now I gotta focus on Act 3-6 quests and saving side quests later but still will find all locations, altars, and waypoints (unless one is locked behind stronghold) alongside the way and then doing Stronghold last after I finish the Act quest in that area.
Dont forget to have fun. Effeciency is nice, but if you have fun doing side quests, just do it =) Sure, the xp wont be as efficient and you might waste some time, but isnt that the whole point of Video games? (Wasting time but having fun)
Appreciate another quality video @Fextralife This is my first diablo game and your videos on builds and now the timely endgame guide has been really helpful!
A nice way to double dip for renown and whisper quests is to wait to do the dungeons in each area until there is a whisper quest for them so get credit for your first clear as well as 5 whispers
i think the nightmare dungeon can overwrite whisper, i tried and didnt get whisper points :C ...you also lose nightmare dungeon access if you relog because of glitch/crash/close/extended loss of internet. T-T ive lost 2 top tier perfectly rolled Ancestor dungeons because of glitches(infinite loading and tp stuck in wall).
Thank you for taking the time to always Show Video clips that Match the topic! That's sooo much better than the lazy way some people choose, to just talk or read Patch notes and Show some random unrelated gameplay.
I collected my cache from the ToW last night with a full inventory and seem to have not gotten it. Your videos like this are super helpful to me, thanks for making them
Thanks for the tips! just finished the campaign at level 44 on only tier 1, havent experienced dying yet! lol. so will go up a tier with the tips you have showed.
Diablo 4's endgame should incorporate more MMO qualities. Helltide, World Bosses, Legion Battles, and PVP Zones are the most fun endgame content because they're the only modes a solo player can fight demonic entities alongside other people. I think that once you complete a dungeon there should be a co-op dungeon finder, Pinnacle Boss dungeons should be re-playable as Raids, and that there ought to be a PVP version of Legion Battles (limited time Team Death Match).
This is my first diablo game and your videos have been a huge help with just knowing what to do next. I feel like you haven't slept since launch. Take care of yourself homie. Thank you!
I hope things take a turn for the better after I hit level 50 at 46 with a barbarian I've already beat the cathedral, I feel like there's not any reason to play it anymore after the campaign other than trying to reach 100 and better gear. I hate talking bad about this game in any kind of way because it was such a good game but after I've completed all the seasonal stuff and the cathedral I just found myself getting really bored trying to make it to 50. I know when I hit 50 then the Paragon opens up so maybe that will give me some motivation to play it.
Start with the alters of lilith, just... get them out of the way.... It'll also be useful because you will know what your base stats will be, I think you get about 60 to each core stat after getting all the alters. Which is a lot to be sure
imo just rush the lillith altars + strongholds and then leave it. That unlocks tier 3. For tier 5 you'll get it passively overtime as you complete nightmare dungeons. Some side quests have interesting storyplots so maybe worth doing for lore reasons. But dont need to bother except a few to hit tier 3.
as someone who played 80+ hours in D4 (reached lvl 100, decked out my gear and paragon nodes) my only suggestion on what to do after the campaign - refund the game. End-game from 70-100 is a complete chore, even more than D2. Auto-scaling content doesn't add to the power level at all. I've found plenty of BIS Ancestral legendaries somewhere around lvl 76-80ish and still using them, however despite them being legit OP (max roll on all needed stats that are key to my build) you wont be feeling more powerful at all. Nightmare dungeons sometimes are completely bullshit, they supposed to be your "neverending grind" but damn, how the hell you will be doing keys that have magic immune affixes as a Sorc who doesn't have any phys dmg. That forces you to reroll/reforge new keys, those require materials and gold, late keys require absurd amount of that specific material that you get from salvaging other keys. So often I would simply spent hours to just roll normal key that I can do without spending 3 hours to clear a dungeon. World bosses are lame af, they take no brains to kill, mechanics are slow and repetitive, each boss has like only 2-3 of them. Dungeons are all copy pasted (legit sometimes you would pass through 3-5 rooms of the exact same design in a row), objectives in dungeons are dumb and add nothing to the gameplay, they are just your time sink. There are like 10 bosses in all 120 dungeons that get repeated without adding anything new (no new mechanics/phases/abilities ) no bosses get mixed with each other (like dual/tripple boss encounter from different dungeons). Overall guys don't be stupid as I was, don't buy this game now (or if you did pre-order like I, then just refund asap) wait until a huge discount. Honestly game is worth about 20-30ish bucks in a state that it is now. PoE/Grimdawn/Last Epoch has way more variety than this 10 years in making piece of crap.
I just started playing a month or so ago and just reached level 52 and teir 3 starting to notice the big jump in difficulty. My question is how good is the diablo community? If i were to start looking for a clan and do LFGs what are my chances of finding good players willing to guide and give advice to newer players? Or is it like most games which is 60-70% toxic and the rest are just chill older ppl that don't take the game too seriously but are still good and actually enjoy helping newer players out. Bc i can sit here and watch videos all day long but if I'm just playing solo it's harder to get used to everything bc I'm having to decipher everything they say in the videos myself where as having a better player telling me what's what while we're doing the actual objectives or missions is like going hands on and makes learning that much faster and easier to understand.
One thing I would mention as well is farming in pvp zones - there's plenty of elites/stacks of monsters to kill and 95% of the players are not bloodmarked, so they can't attack you. You can get great loot there most of the time and you get more andrenaline while doing so))
Hm, I always blood mark when going in, most people aren't prepared to PvP and are free loot. Just run to whatever evac station activates, claim the loot off their corpse, do it 2-3 times and end up with 10k shards in like 5minutes. I know it sounds like a mean thing to do but it IS a PvP zone afterall
@HarmonicGray lol, I hate PVP but that's the point of PVP 😂😂😂 I do go in but I know I'm going in at my parel... ohhh just realize I can PVP with my daughter just to the reward for it!😅
Well back in D3 there were a bunch of additional skills for 'sorc' with a 4th damage type called arcane damage which was like usually dark purple themed. Really missing the diversity :/ as well as having 5 modifiers per skill, + more through gear... instead of just 2 and then gear. The skill tree feels so tiny, bet they gonna put additional skills (and classes) behind a paywall later on... Really wish D4 wasn't made by blizzard
@@natesprigg9653 ah ok, well that's good to hear. In my case I haven't played it at all, nor will I ever play it, because it would involve me giving 70$+ to the same snakes that butchered my beloved Overwatch, and left HoTS to die just because they couldn't figure out how to make it big in the Esports scene. Anyways! I shouldn't slam something that others enjoy, I hope you have a good time and that Blizz actually does something right for once.
@@raveturkey1996 it really is worth playing in my opinion. They've done a good job with the amount of content, even though some people feel that the end game is going to be repetitive.
Considering monsters scale to you, there is absolutely no point in the end game in my opinion. Why grind to get more powerful and better equipped when the monsters just scale to you anyway? What is the point. Ruins the point of an ARPG where you get to end game and work on improving to be more godlike over the mobs. Basically when you get to end game, what to do is either quit playing or make a new build and start over.
I’ve mostly been struggling with what to do with my build past 50, like how I should be grinding for uniques (if possible.. I’m not sure if it is) but I can say that I randomly found 2 uniques so far that I have seen in 2 of your builds one was the staff that effects the meteors and the other was the movement speed critical strike boots. I’m still using the ice sorcerer however and not touching the unique items lol.. in my opinion the ice build I have is really strong 🤷♂️
One thing i want to add when it comes to Helltides: If you've come across a helltide chess "mystery" (for example) it may dissapear if you leave the chest behind if you do not have enough resources. I don't know if you guys have noticed this, but for me this sucks considering i've always want the mystery chest rewards, but when i return, it dissapears. Mby it's a bug who knows 🤷♂
One thing in particular about resistances: one of the loading tooltips tells you that in world tier 3 enemies will ignore the first 20% of your resistances, so even if you had been fine up until that point you may suddenly find yourself struggling if there's an enemy that targets one you happen to be weak against.
If you have a decent build and know what you are doing, you can go for lvl 70 capstone at around lvl 60 and change to t4 for ascestral gear. Pro tip: item rolls are based on item power so with this knowledge if you get a sacred 695 you can upgrade to lvl 5 or 700 upgrade to lvl 4 to get to 720. Why 720? Because that is the breakpoint for entry lvl ancestral bracket of rolls so technically you have ancestral gear but they sacred 😅 once they obtain the 720 item power all of the subfixes will upgrade to ancestral brackets If you have wepons and chest and pants at that power you can easily do lvl 70 capstone at 60 and go to the juice t4. Staying in t3 for to long will slow your progress by quite a bit and tbh t3 is boring compared to t4.
Idk about that. Maybe very class/build dependent. I can't get past Elias as a really geared pulverize dr00d at lvl60. Pretty much one tapping most things at T3, but that boss just does too much unavoidable damage at 60 in my case.
@@MarkDrisch drink the 30% hp elixer + armor incense, use some tanky items, there is no enrage timer that I've seen so no dps check just survival. Tbh the boss is 100x harder then what u will face in t4 early while you farm ancestral so getting past it, it's very rewarding. I've died about 20 times on my lvl 60 sorc till I've done it but it was fun. Obviously don't try this on HC 😅
Sounds great! Which build are you using? Level 51 here and struggling A LOT with classic TB in WT3 in hell tides, I’m doing no events there because the elites / bosses are way stronger than me!
When is a good time to actually invest into your build?? I'm level 55 Rogue, I find Tier 3 quite easy and I've been doing a decent amount of farming. I have sacred Aspects and a load of great rolled Aspects for my desired build. I have many Gems and all that good stuff. I'm just worried about investing into my Sarced Legendaries too early and wasting my gear..
I just finished the campaign. What does all the leveling lead up to afterward, just running around killing things aimlessly? I guess that's fun if there's nothing else to play, but I feel like there's no point otherwise. The story is over. Maybe I'm a minority, but I never keep playing a game once the story is done, nor care to replay it over and over. Is the new DLC continuing Neyrelle's story or is it just another region and more cosmetic stuff? And yes, I'm new to Diablo. Never played it until D4.
my necro was my first class and he is at the point now where i'm just leveling because most of my future power will just come from paragon (i'm only missing one unique for full build and most of my legendaries are sacred with desirable rolls/stats). I even beat the WT4 dungeon at level 58 barely, but ancestral items have a minimum level of 60 for even just rares so the extra difficulty isn't even worth it yet. but when i go to level my alts I skipped the campaign and so they are just doing loads and loads and loads of whispers and whatever events are up, but it just feels like they level incredibly slow and really get nothing for their build until like 40. I just wish there was a way to help alts out more, like how in D3 you could make a high level item require level 1 with some effort, or you could maybe have a "levelling outfit" that had exp boosting powers/stats, maybe from a unique elite? or something idk its just sadly slow and its really killing my momentum.
Yeah a few people have done the t4 one which is recommended for lvl 70 at 50 with certain builds. Doable, but not for the majority of players I would say.
For helltides I’ve noticed a lot of chests seem to be guarded and sometimes I would run out of time making it safe to open so might be worth clearing in advance if there’s one you’re planning on opening
I just switched from keys and mouse to controller...what a difference that made! I usually prefer keys/mice but it's a game changer on this, rogue is now not just viable but fun! :D
Controller is really nice quality of life, however there is one caveat. Movement skills that have a variable range like teleport and leap have a set distance when used on controller, so those classes might not be as easy to use without kb and mouse. Just a heads up. Otherwise I've used mainly controller on PC and it's wonderful.
had the exact same experience, theres a few edge cases, like not being able to perfectly control lunging strike on barbarian, and controlling distance. My gf is already tired of me occupying our living room with my desktop though, so im probably going to switch back :D
for kb+m you have to bind left click to walk/interact rather than basic ability. Honestly it baffles me why every new arpg still binds an attack to left click, its super clunky and feels horrible to play. Thats why controller feels good
Honestly, I'm probably going to end up getting this game and I already know that it will probably be a mistake. I am either going to make a starter character to play some of it and restart the exact same character in the new season or just wait until the season comes out to start playing. Either way, this game design sounds about as convoluted as understanding how insurance works.
Hmm it's complex but in a great way of you're willing to learn it. It's no more complex than you're average hardcore game. At least imo, and games like this NEED to be complex or they suck lol.
And yes there is absolutely no reason for them to make it online only .. Protip if you turn off cross play in options you will see very few other players online
So we can kill worldbosses multiple times for legendaries or only each once a week for a big cache? On which day of the week is the Server reset? NA/EU differences?
There’s absolutely nothing to do after you finish the main campaign as your toon does not transfer over to seasonal that will be released mid July. It’s also still unclear and not confirmed if map progression, alters, etc is account bound or character bound. I stopped playing after the campaign but I suppose if someone is really into the basic realm you could ummm 100% it lol?
What do you mean?😂😂you can easily test this just by making another character. Alters and some waypoints are account bound. Only exception is hardcore. They even carry over to seasons
@@jordankerr1 I did. On the official forums they even specify stated certain progress will not carry over and you’ll need to make a new toon every 3 months. It’s meant for everyone to start fresh. I believe cosmetics Will obviously carry over. The new realms are “Seasonal Realms” which are completely different then the “eternal Realm”.
I doubt there will be anything to do besides the paid battlepass cringe in season 1. I'm afraid you will have to wait for $70 DLC with actual endgame content. Until then there is literally nothing to do except for farming dungeons with no variety.
@Fextralife, I never played diablo or diablo-like games. Do you think I should use already posted builds, or should I avoid any build suggestions and discover them on my own to have a better experience with a game?
Same here, im just using an already posted build for now to gentthru the game (its still fun) and then when i learn more about it ill just respec and make my own
You can only go to tier 3 after you're done with your campaign and you complete a specific dungeon (capstone), regardless of your level. Any new character you create, after completing the campaign one time, can go to tier 3 and 4 at any moment (even level 1), as long as you either complete or skip the campaign, and do the capstone dungeon.
Dude, thanks for this, i hit level 50... and was kinda lost. i did the alters of lilth, beat the capstone, then was like, now what? Thanks! Imma save this video and use it as my mini guide for the next few days :D
Quick question, so are there any leaderboards or things to push like Greater Rifts? I really enjoyed that aspect of Diablo 3 and seeing how far I could push a character with specific items sets. Thanks!
Game is terrible, I've already uninstalled. No replayability after story. Itemizations is shit, no build diversity, no community, no trading, level scaling is horrible. As you progress you feel weaker. Its just overall a game made to sell a ton to casuals who will play every now and then. But will miss the big $ for reoccurring revenue with MTX sales since most players will be gone in 2 weeks. They created an abomination of D3 in open world.
5:31 I too was a level 50 when I ran into a lvl 72 boss at Helltide. My sorcer took it 😊 after looong fight tough and it dropped nothing of particular value 😅
I’m not sure if this was asked or if I missed it but do alters of Lilith carry over from character to character or do you have to re find them all again?
This is just terrible and shameless. Now uderstand me the game is amazing, graphics, combat story 10/10 and all of that is fine. But WHERE ARE THE LEADERBOARDS??? WHY WOULD I BECOME STRONGER WHEN I CAN'T SEE HOW GOOD I AM COMPARED TO OTHERS??? I LOVE THE COMPETATIVE PART OF THE GAME AND IT DOES NOT MATTER IF MY RANK IS 1M OR 1000 BUT I WANT TO SEE WHERE I AM AT. HOW DO WE MEASURE WHO IS THE STRONGEST WHY ARE THERE NO DUNGEONS TO TEST OUR MIGHT. SURE LVL 20 NIGHMARE DUNGEONS ARE THE END GAME BUT WTF???????????????????? WHY WOULD I PLAY OVER AND OVER STUPID DUNGEONS TO MAKE MY CHARACTER STRONGER FOR WHAT? WHY DOES IT MATTER HOW STRONG I AM IN THE GAME IF THERE IS NO LEADERBOARD??????????????????? wTFFFFFF BLIZZARD?
Thanks for this summary. Really concise and clear. Having a good time in Tier 1 but already was starting to wonder, "what does this all lead to in Tiers 3/4".
The issue with Diablo is in the way they did multiplayer scaling. In most arpgs the greatest benefit to min maxing a character is being able to go to places in the world and 1 tap everything at lower levels. In d4, you spend countless hours grinding one character, get him to level 50 with glorious gear and fine tune your build, and you go join up with your homie at level 1 to start his new campaign and you struggle against wt1 trash mobs outside kyovashad. And since even in your own game everything levels and scales with you so you never actually feel overpowered, that the hell is the point? Just look at this video. Dudes swinging a limp noodle at packs of mobs and probably has gear most may never even see. So, in my observation, upgrading your build is just surviving the ever encroaching difficulty upgrades. You'll never feel more powerful. But if you don't upgrade you'll eventually get one tapped by mobs and just feel useless. So it's a requirement, not a bonus, to upgrade. And honestly it doesn't feel good this way. I'll never get to a point where I can do big enough damage to laugh at how hard I hit something. And isn't that supposed to be the point of making a build? To get to a point where you can farm quickly and go do actual badass content and survive it? If everything scales with you, it's all the same shit. Nothing feels more or less difficult to deal with.
Counter point: So many MMOs or just games with level scaling in general have large areas of the game that grow irrelevant once you out level them. You're not returning to a lower level zone. Your goal is to get better gear to push to higher level zones. Which is the exact thing you are complaining about. The way D4 does it makes it so no zone goes irrelevant. You can return and do dungeons or side quests in any zone at any time and it is just as rewarding relative to your level as it always has been. Also you definitely can get to the point where you one tap something. As you unlock more power for your character you hit certain breakpoints where the build clicks together and when you tap that ultimate you completely annihilate bosses. Like I'm playing arc lash sorc and every tiny bit of attack speed, cdr and crit chance all multiply together to exponentially increase the dps output, and with enough cdr and AS you can chain stun bosses or rapidly build up their stun bar and get your ult back super quickly and kill dungeon bosses before they get a chance to fight back.
And remember: this open world game will punish you for exploring. You must focus on main story and skip every side quest or map event if you don’t want to be forever in lvl 50 with no gainings
Cheers, thanks. I recently wrapped up the story and did the capstone dungeon, did some tree of whispers and helltide, about to jump into my first nightmare dungeon. Been enjoying the ice shards Sorc.
First time playing diablo this season. Got level 100 and pulled Shako my second duriel ever! Now I have everything for my barb. Grandfather etc idk what I’m suppose to do. Is the game always dry with content for end game? I don’t feel like grinding helltides or Uber bosses anymore. I made a new character and got it level 100. Idk diablo needs more content
Ya...that's it, Nightmare Dungeons and Tree of Whispers.... The dungeons suck and are mostly all the same with minor cosmetic differences. You get tons of Legendry loot but it's mostly junk and sooo many duplicates, rarely do you get something that's actually an upgrade. Even if you do expect the aspect on it to be trash. I'm so disappointed in this game, Diablo Immortal is a much better game with lots of end game content and better game design....and it's free. I would not have bought D4.

Basically, the story is over, and it is just loot grinding until the season ends. Then it starts all over and get better loot until that season ends.
Out of all the informative videos out there, this one was by far the most useful, thank you
A couple things I want to add:
Unlike previous iterations of diablo, you DO NOT need to complete the campaign on each difficulty. You only do it on normal. Also, any progress you make towards completing objectives across the map (ie clearing each dungeon for the first time, doing side quests, finding all the lilith alters, etc) is also shared across all difficulties.
Most rpgs out there will punish you for skipping all the side quests and just barreling forward with the main quest. D4 will almost punish you if you don’t do this. I went full completionist on my play through and hit level 50 about half way through the second act.

I’m not saying don’t do any of the side stuff, I’m saying make sure you finish the story before you hit 50.
I’m at 45 and stopped doing story after reaching Kyovachad. Thanks for the tip. Will return to it now knowing that. Thanks for the save!

Thanks. Important information for new players.
i think it’s important to note the tree of whispers is available in world teir 2 to also help level up and get gear before u do the capstone dungeon ~
it's even available in tier 1, you just need the campain done
This was already mentioned in the video, though.
I hope things take a turn for the better after I hit level 50 at 46 with a barbarian I've already beat the cathedral, I feel like there's not any reason to play it anymore after the campaign other than trying to reach 100 and better gear. I hate talking bad about this game in any kind of way because it was such a good game but after I've completed all the seasonal stuff and the cathedral I just found myself getting really bored trying to make it to 50. I know when I hit 50 then the Paragon opens up so maybe that will give me some motivation to play it.
Your D4 guides are gold mate, thank you.
yea these are so helpful
Very informative overview, thank you.
I did the capstone at 45 lvl doesn't matter your bulid does, it's a check and if having trouble you may need to rework a few things
I'm definitely going straight for renown hunt after the capstone dungeon just to get those paragon points asap.
Double dipping with whisper quests while completing side dungeons is a great 2 for 1
Start with the alters of lilith, just... get them out of the way.... It'll also be useful because you will know what your base stats will be, I think you get about 60 to each core stat after getting all the alters. Which is a lot to be sure
@@Doost311 Yeah, I'm doing this basically area by area. Searching them is a chore anyway, so I just want to get it out of the way.
imo just rush the lillith altars + strongholds and then leave it. That unlocks tier 3. For tier 5 you'll get it passively overtime as you complete nightmare dungeons.
Some side quests have interesting storyplots so maybe worth doing for lore reasons. But dont need to bother except a few to hit tier 3.
as someone who played 80+ hours in D4 (reached lvl 100, decked out my gear and paragon nodes) my only suggestion on what to do after the campaign - refund the game. End-game from 70-100 is a complete chore, even more than D2. Auto-scaling content doesn't add to the power level at all. I've found plenty of BIS Ancestral legendaries somewhere around lvl 76-80ish and still using them, however despite them being legit OP (max roll on all needed stats that are key to my build) you wont be feeling more powerful at all. Nightmare dungeons sometimes are completely bullshit, they supposed to be your "neverending grind" but damn, how the hell you will be doing keys that have magic immune affixes as a Sorc who doesn't have any phys dmg. That forces you to reroll/reforge new keys, those require materials and gold, late keys require absurd amount of that specific material that you get from salvaging other keys. So often I would simply spent hours to just roll normal key that I can do without spending 3 hours to clear a dungeon. World bosses are lame af, they take no brains to kill, mechanics are slow and repetitive, each boss has like only 2-3 of them. Dungeons are all copy pasted (legit sometimes you would pass through 3-5 rooms of the exact same design in a row), objectives in dungeons are dumb and add nothing to the gameplay, they are just your time sink. There are like 10 bosses in all 120 dungeons that get repeated without adding anything new (no new mechanics/phases/abilities ) no bosses get mixed with each other (like dual/tripple boss encounter from different dungeons). Overall guys don't be stupid as I was, don't buy this game now (or if you did pre-order like I, then just refund asap) wait until a huge discount. Honestly game is worth about 20-30ish bucks in a state that it is now. PoE/Grimdawn/Last Epoch has way more variety than this 10 years in making piece of crap.
I just started playing a month or so ago and just reached level 52 and teir 3 starting to notice the big jump in difficulty. My question is how good is the diablo community? If i were to start looking for a clan and do LFGs what are my chances of finding good players willing to guide and give advice to newer players? Or is it like most games which is 60-70% toxic and the rest are just chill older ppl that don't take the game too seriously but are still good and actually enjoy helping newer players out. Bc i can sit here and watch videos all day long but if I'm just playing solo it's harder to get used to everything bc I'm having to decipher everything they say in the videos myself where as having a better player telling me what's what while we're doing the actual objectives or missions is like going hands on and makes learning that much faster and easier to understand.
I wish they'd bring Rifts to Diablo 4. I think I enjoyed it more than what we have now on D4.
If your D4 guides match the quality of your Elden Ring ones, we’re in good hands.
One thing I would mention as well is farming in pvp zones - there's plenty of elites/stacks of monsters to kill and 95% of the players are not bloodmarked, so they can't attack you. You can get great loot there most of the time and you get more andrenaline while doing so))
Hm, I always blood mark when going in, most people aren't prepared to PvP and are free loot. Just run to whatever evac station activates, claim the loot off their corpse, do it 2-3 times and end up with 10k shards in like 5minutes.
I know it sounds like a mean thing to do but it IS a PvP zone afterall
The suspense is the best part!
@@Doost311incoming Reddit posts complaining about how there needs to be a PvP-free PvP zone for farming mobs as there always is.
@@HarmonicGray haha
@HarmonicGray lol, I hate PVP but that's the point of PVP 😂😂😂 I do go in but I know I'm going in at my parel... ohhh just realize I can PVP with my daughter just to the reward for it!😅
dude has such a relaxing voice. Can you make a playlist reading stories lol
I’m confused because my map shows all the altars of Lillith but they all say “claimed” despite me having never touched them?!
they should make some sort of dark elemental abilities for the sorcerer
I think it’s called a necromancy?
Well back in D3 there were a bunch of additional skills for 'sorc' with a 4th damage type called arcane damage which was like usually dark purple themed. Really missing the diversity :/ as well as having 5 modifiers per skill, + more through gear... instead of just 2 and then gear.
The skill tree feels so tiny,
bet they gonna put additional skills (and classes) behind a paywall later on...
Really wish D4 wasn't made by blizzard
@@raveturkey1996 there is an unbelievable amount of customization options in D4 compared to D3. Maybe you're playing the wrong game.
@@natesprigg9653 ah ok, well that's good to hear.
In my case I haven't played it at all, nor will I ever play it, because it would involve me giving 70$+ to the same snakes that butchered my beloved Overwatch, and left HoTS to die just because they couldn't figure out how to make it big in the Esports scene.
Anyways! I shouldn't slam something that others enjoy, I hope you have a good time and that Blizz actually does something right for once.
@@raveturkey1996 it really is worth playing in my opinion. They've done a good job with the amount of content, even though some people feel that the end game is going to be repetitive.
Hi, thx for video.
What comp specs do you have? Performance in this video is awesome!
Helltides is mandatory, I believe as you need some drops to upgrade tier 3 drops.
Capstone was hard but doable at 45 with decent gear
I’m 38 and melted everything until I got to liliths second form. May have to level a bit to get her just cuz I can’t take a hit
Lol I am 46 level and only in the middle of 2nd act
70 doungen is hard
@@hazzelflex2748 aha yeah tried it at 53, was dying before getting to the boss :P
I’m still workin on the campaign I’m almost to act 3
Considering monsters scale to you, there is absolutely no point in the end game in my opinion. Why grind to get more powerful and better equipped when the monsters just scale to you anyway? What is the point. Ruins the point of an ARPG where you get to end game and work on improving to be more godlike over the mobs. Basically when you get to end game, what to do is either quit playing or make a new build and start over.
agreed
Can we get a build guide on that nasty looking frozen orb build that was in this video? Looked great and I loved orbs fun factor
D2 vibes =)
It’s my permafrost build, published on blog, RUclips soon!
I’ve mostly been struggling with what to do with my build past 50, like how I should be grinding for uniques (if possible.. I’m not sure if it is) but I can say that I randomly found 2 uniques so far that I have seen in 2 of your builds one was the staff that effects the meteors and the other was the movement speed critical strike boots. I’m still using the ice sorcerer however and not touching the unique items lol.. in my opinion the ice build I have is really strong 🤷♂️
Good video thanks
I just hit 78 and I’m bored to tears … I don’t see myself getting to 100
Flew through the cathedral of light at 47 as rogue
0:19 oof I’m lvl 50(4) and haven’t finished the campaign yet. So much exploring and dungeon crawling…
Better to do that after you finish the campaign and are tier 3.
One thing i want to add when it comes to Helltides:
If you've come across a helltide chess "mystery" (for example) it may dissapear if you leave the chest behind if you do not have enough resources.
I don't know if you guys have noticed this, but for me this sucks considering i've always want the mystery chest rewards, but when i return, it dissapears.
Mby it's a bug who knows 🤷♂
Every X period of time, the mystery chests cycle locations.
The move at the top of the hour. Rax did a video on it.
Every 15 minutes they change location
@@xSnappsxwas about to say. This tip was huge
One thing in particular about resistances: one of the loading tooltips tells you that in world tier 3 enemies will ignore the first 20% of your resistances, so even if you had been fine up until that point you may suddenly find yourself struggling if there's an enemy that targets one you happen to be weak against.
First 20% (ie 100% of the first 20%) or 20%? (Ie. 1/5 of what ever your resist % is).
@@patinho5589 From the wording (first 20%) I would say its basically substracting 20%, not reducing yours by 20%
@@crazy75able so removing 100% of your first 20% of resistance. That’s a lot!
Res is effectively useless
If you have a decent build and know what you are doing, you can go for lvl 70 capstone at around lvl 60 and change to t4 for ascestral gear. Pro tip: item rolls are based on item power so with this knowledge if you get a sacred 695 you can upgrade to lvl 5 or 700 upgrade to lvl 4 to get to 720. Why 720? Because that is the breakpoint for entry lvl ancestral bracket of rolls so technically you have ancestral gear but they sacred 😅 once they obtain the 720 item power all of the subfixes will upgrade to ancestral brackets If you have wepons and chest and pants at that power you can easily do lvl 70 capstone at 60 and go to the juice t4. Staying in t3 for to long will slow your progress by quite a bit and tbh t3 is boring compared to t4.
Idk about that. Maybe very class/build dependent. I can't get past Elias as a really geared pulverize dr00d at lvl60. Pretty much one tapping most things at T3, but that boss just does too much unavoidable damage at 60 in my case.
@@MarkDrisch drink the 30% hp elixer + armor incense, use some tanky items, there is no enrage timer that I've seen so no dps check just survival. Tbh the boss is 100x harder then what u will face in t4 early while you farm ancestral so getting past it, it's very rewarding. I've died about 20 times on my lvl 60 sorc till I've done it but it was fun. Obviously don't try this on HC 😅
Thx for the advice!
I’m playing hardcore.. can’t be dieing on those tough helltide bosses!
I just unlocked WT4 at lvl 60 with a rogue. Killing Elias took me 15 tries but it was worth it and I can still oneshot mobs at WT4
Sounds great! Which build are you using? Level 51 here and struggling A LOT with classic TB in WT3 in hell tides, I’m doing no events there because the elites / bosses are way stronger than me!
End game? The game just came out? Lol
you must forget this is the group of folks who never go outside lol
When is a good time to actually invest into your build??
I'm level 55 Rogue, I find Tier 3 quite easy and I've been doing a decent amount of farming. I have sacred Aspects and a load of great rolled Aspects for my desired build. I have many Gems and all that good stuff.
I'm just worried about investing into my Sarced Legendaries too early and wasting my gear..
invest when you start to struggle, progress through nightmare dungeons as far as you can and if it gets too difficult then start improving gear
@@MyNameIsSalo Cheers mate
I just finished the campaign. What does all the leveling lead up to afterward, just running around killing things aimlessly? I guess that's fun if there's nothing else to play, but I feel like there's no point otherwise. The story is over. Maybe I'm a minority, but I never keep playing a game once the story is done, nor care to replay it over and over. Is the new DLC continuing Neyrelle's story or is it just another region and more cosmetic stuff? And yes, I'm new to Diablo. Never played it until D4.
Very simple ! Go back playing Diablo 3 is much better game.
I’m lvl 59 necro completing tier 18 nightmare dungeons
my necro was my first class and he is at the point now where i'm just leveling because most of my future power will just come from paragon (i'm only missing one unique for full build and most of my legendaries are sacred with desirable rolls/stats). I even beat the WT4 dungeon at level 58 barely, but ancestral items have a minimum level of 60 for even just rares so the extra difficulty isn't even worth it yet. but when i go to level my alts I skipped the campaign and so they are just doing loads and loads and loads of whispers and whatever events are up, but it just feels like they level incredibly slow and really get nothing for their build until like 40. I just wish there was a way to help alts out more, like how in D3 you could make a high level item require level 1 with some effort, or you could maybe have a "levelling outfit" that had exp boosting powers/stats, maybe from a unique elite? or something idk its just sadly slow and its really killing my momentum.
I did the capstone at 45 and it was ok then the tier 3 loot was absolutely insane for me. If you can do it early people.
Yeah a few people have done the t4 one which is recommended for lvl 70 at 50 with certain builds. Doable, but not for the majority of players I would say.
For helltides I’ve noticed a lot of chests seem to be guarded and sometimes I would run out of time making it safe to open so might be worth clearing in advance if there’s one you’re planning on opening
just open it while youre killing the pack?
@@KsanUwU it takes like 3 seconds to open
@@KsanUwU Every time you get hit it resets the opening progress bar. Little challenging when some chests ive found surrounded by 3-4 elite packs
@@aggieking87 oh, never had an issue with that. spec into some stuns or a build that can kill elites in a reasonable time then?

I just switched from keys and mouse to controller...what a difference that made! I usually prefer keys/mice but it's a game changer on this, rogue is now not just viable but fun! :D
Yer Diablo 3 was one of those games that enjoyed playing on console aswell as my PC 👍🏻
Controller is really nice quality of life, however there is one caveat. Movement skills that have a variable range like teleport and leap have a set distance when used on controller, so those classes might not be as easy to use without kb and mouse. Just a heads up. Otherwise I've used mainly controller on PC and it's wonderful.
had the exact same experience, theres a few edge cases, like not being able to perfectly control lunging strike on barbarian, and controlling distance.
My gf is already tired of me occupying our living room with my desktop though, so im probably going to switch back :D
for kb+m you have to bind left click to walk/interact rather than basic ability. Honestly it baffles me why every new arpg still binds an attack to left click, its super clunky and feels horrible to play. Thats why controller feels good
@@thatsmeman780 Not if she wants married anytime soon.
Honestly, I'm probably going to end up getting this game and I already know that it will probably be a mistake. I am either going to make a starter character to play some of it and restart the exact same character in the new season or just wait until the season comes out to start playing. Either way, this game design sounds about as convoluted as understanding how insurance works.
Hmm it's complex but in a great way of you're willing to learn it. It's no more complex than you're average hardcore game. At least imo, and games like this NEED to be complex or they suck lol.
Are you going to do a youtube guide on the Defiler necromancer build?
Yes
And yes there is absolutely no reason for them to make it online only .. Protip if you turn off cross play in options you will see very few other players online
Would love to see this frozen orb sorc guide
It’s live now on channel
Can you Update this guide So it says the Tide lasts 60 Minutes and will Happen all 2h 15m ?
Y’all feel controller or mouse and keyboard are better for this game ?
So we can kill worldbosses multiple times for legendaries or only each once a week for a big cache?
On which day of the week is the Server reset? NA/EU differences?
Ik ik...until commercials ends ...farm my ass off,a cmon am too old for this 🎩💯👍
There’s absolutely nothing to do after you finish the main campaign as your toon does not transfer over to seasonal that will be released mid July. It’s also still unclear and not confirmed if map progression, alters, etc is account bound or character bound. I stopped playing after the campaign but I suppose if someone is really into the basic realm you could ummm 100% it lol?
What do you mean?😂😂you can easily test this just by making another character. Alters and some waypoints are account bound. Only exception is hardcore. They even carry over to seasons
@@jordankerr1 I did. On the official forums they even specify stated certain progress will not carry over and you’ll need to make a new toon every 3 months. It’s meant for everyone to start fresh. I believe cosmetics Will obviously carry over. The new realms are “Seasonal Realms” which are completely different then the “eternal
Realm”.
@@Hrithmus alters are account bound.
Account bound not character bound. Make a new char and you do it all over
I doubt there will be anything to do besides the paid battlepass cringe in season 1. I'm afraid you will have to wait for $70 DLC with actual endgame content. Until then there is literally nothing to do except for farming dungeons with no variety.
@Fextralife, I never played diablo or diablo-like games. Do you think I should use already posted builds, or should I avoid any build suggestions and discover them on my own to have a better experience with a game?
Same here, im just using an already posted build for now to gentthru the game (its still fun) and then when i learn more about it ill just respec and make my own
Can you complete the game at world tier 1 or 2 or do you have to go to world tier 3 at or after level 50?
You can only go to tier 3 after you're done with your campaign and you complete a specific dungeon (capstone), regardless of your level.
Any new character you create, after completing the campaign one time, can go to tier 3 and 4 at any moment (even level 1), as long as you either complete or skip the campaign, and do the capstone dungeon.
Dont worry about your resistance. Its completely pointless to have it on your build. You have SO many other options that will improve your build.
The game just launched… end game build videos already ? what do you people do on a day to day basis ?
I was looking for his comment. I downloaded the game and haven't even had a chance to play lol
I wish they would steal the cyrodiil style campaign pvp and implement it, that'd be sick
Nightmare dungeons are also a great way to farm Uniques !!!
Dude, thanks for this, i hit level 50... and was kinda lost. i did the alters of lilth, beat the capstone, then was like, now what? Thanks! Imma save this video and use it as my mini guide for the next few days :D
Quick question, so are there any leaderboards or things to push like Greater Rifts? I really enjoyed that aspect of Diablo 3 and seeing how far I could push a character with specific items sets. Thanks!
Leaderbords are coming with Season 1, so mid-end July
I just wanted to make sure there’s worthwhile content after more or less finishing the game. Sounds pretty good 👍
Game is terrible, I've already uninstalled. No replayability after story. Itemizations is shit, no build diversity, no community, no trading, level scaling is horrible. As you progress you feel weaker. Its just overall a game made to sell a ton to casuals who will play every now and then. But will miss the big $ for reoccurring revenue with MTX sales since most players will be gone in 2 weeks. They created an abomination of D3 in open world.
5:31 I too was a level 50 when I ran into a lvl 72 boss at Helltide. My sorcer took it 😊 after looong fight tough and it dropped nothing of particular value 😅
What a RIPOFF
What should I be doing to finish 44-50?
If I finish campaign first, can I then finish all the sidequest ? Or some sidequests will not be avaible in the endgame ?
Yes, you can finish the campaign and go back to the side quests after. None of them disappear.
@@paradox5391 THX !
Very Helpful ! Thank you
Cass you the man this guide was very helpful thank you all for everything you do!
I’m not sure if this was asked or if I missed it but do alters of Lilith carry over from character to character or do you have to re find them all again?
They carry over between characters on the same realm. So eternal and hardcore are separate but that's it.
only guide on the internet that is comprehensible about d4 endgame. thank you
Found this video recently after beating campaign for first time in S4. I found a sacred from the desert church boss in T2. Is that lucky?
Do I need ps plus to play all of this after end game?
This is just terrible and shameless. Now uderstand me the game is amazing, graphics, combat story 10/10 and all of that is fine.
But WHERE ARE THE LEADERBOARDS??? WHY WOULD I BECOME STRONGER WHEN I CAN'T SEE HOW GOOD I AM COMPARED TO OTHERS???
I LOVE THE COMPETATIVE PART OF THE GAME AND IT DOES NOT MATTER IF MY RANK IS 1M OR 1000 BUT I WANT TO SEE WHERE I AM AT.
HOW DO WE MEASURE WHO IS THE STRONGEST WHY ARE THERE NO DUNGEONS TO TEST OUR MIGHT.
SURE LVL 20 NIGHMARE DUNGEONS ARE THE END GAME BUT WTF????????????????????
WHY WOULD I PLAY OVER AND OVER STUPID DUNGEONS TO MAKE MY CHARACTER STRONGER FOR WHAT?
WHY DOES IT MATTER HOW STRONG I AM IN THE GAME IF THERE IS NO LEADERBOARD???????????????????
wTFFFFFF BLIZZARD?
As usual, the finest D4 content on YT. Thank you!
Finished msq at lvl 41 ish, should i now grind to lvl 50 before anything else?
Thanks for this summary. Really concise and clear. Having a good time in Tier 1 but already was starting to wonder, "what does this all lead to in Tiers 3/4".
Tier I is really just for campaign. Tier III is the game.
The issue with Diablo is in the way they did multiplayer scaling. In most arpgs the greatest benefit to min maxing a character is being able to go to places in the world and 1 tap everything at lower levels. In d4, you spend countless hours grinding one character, get him to level 50 with glorious gear and fine tune your build, and you go join up with your homie at level 1 to start his new campaign and you struggle against wt1 trash mobs outside kyovashad.
And since even in your own game everything levels and scales with you so you never actually feel overpowered, that the hell is the point? Just look at this video. Dudes swinging a limp noodle at packs of mobs and probably has gear most may never even see.
So, in my observation, upgrading your build is just surviving the ever encroaching difficulty upgrades. You'll never feel more powerful. But if you don't upgrade you'll eventually get one tapped by mobs and just feel useless. So it's a requirement, not a bonus, to upgrade. And honestly it doesn't feel good this way. I'll never get to a point where I can do big enough damage to laugh at how hard I hit something. And isn't that supposed to be the point of making a build? To get to a point where you can farm quickly and go do actual badass content and survive it? If everything scales with you, it's all the same shit. Nothing feels more or less difficult to deal with.
Counter point: So many MMOs or just games with level scaling in general have large areas of the game that grow irrelevant once you out level them. You're not returning to a lower level zone. Your goal is to get better gear to push to higher level zones. Which is the exact thing you are complaining about.
The way D4 does it makes it so no zone goes irrelevant. You can return and do dungeons or side quests in any zone at any time and it is just as rewarding relative to your level as it always has been.
Also you definitely can get to the point where you one tap something. As you unlock more power for your character you hit certain breakpoints where the build clicks together and when you tap that ultimate you completely annihilate bosses. Like I'm playing arc lash sorc and every tiny bit of attack speed, cdr and crit chance all multiply together to exponentially increase the dps output, and with enough cdr and AS you can chain stun bosses or rapidly build up their stun bar and get your ult back super quickly and kill dungeon bosses before they get a chance to fight back.
And remember: this open world game will punish you for exploring. You must focus on main story and skip every side quest or map event if you don’t want to be forever in lvl 50 with no gainings
Cheers, thanks. I recently wrapped up the story and did the capstone dungeon, did some tree of whispers and helltide, about to jump into my first nightmare dungeon. Been enjoying the ice shards Sorc.

BS.........
First time playing diablo this season. Got level 100 and pulled Shako my second duriel ever! Now I have everything for my barb. Grandfather etc idk what I’m suppose to do. Is the game always dry with content for end game? I don’t feel like grinding helltides or Uber bosses anymore. I made a new character and got it level 100. Idk diablo needs more content
Ya...that's it, Nightmare Dungeons and Tree of Whispers.... The dungeons suck and are mostly all the same with minor cosmetic differences. You get tons of Legendry loot but it's mostly junk and sooo many duplicates, rarely do you get something that's actually an upgrade. Even if you do expect the aspect on it to be trash. I'm so disappointed in this game, Diablo Immortal is a much better game with lots of end game content and better game design....and it's free. I would not have bought D4.
Thank god, my brother who has never played Diablo 4, guessed (or somehow knew) that Necromancer is best class, cuzz look at that damage. Daamn.
Resistances suck, just concentrate on building armour.
I ran a tier 15 cultists refuge and got two unique sacred armors in a single fight.
