nice video, thanks for content. If you don't mind, could you share what the last nine days of playing looked like for you? Hours spent and areas farmed per day? I'm just very curious and it might help me next reset
My cousin and I leveled ourselves. We got to hell in about 8 hours iirc. I started doing hell cows right away, then mixed in some eldritch, shank, and pindle, and trav. I also did a few maps. I didn't find a HR until I was level 90. So far I've done about 185 cow runs, about 30 maps, and a handful of chaos runs. I've founds tons of pul, um, mal, ist, and 3 guls. I just turned 93 and I've found Lo, Lo, and Ber. I haven't made any expensive corruptions, but I've traded bulk runes, gems, maps, and WSS to build up currency. I've also been on the trade site a lot looking for deals for myself and even flipping items. I have a wife, two kids who play sports, a dog, house, and a full-time job, so I usually game when everyone is asleep and a little while before I pick the kids up from school. I'd guess 3-4 hours a day during the week days. I don't normally have full-on gaming days during the weekend, but I always do so during the first week of a ladder season. Also, ty! :)
Algorithm! Now i kind of feel those guys who were commenting on my vids sometimes, that don't have enough time to play everything but can sort of experience the game through content creators! let's go, interesting build!
I'm running the same build. I chose to go with nats set. How well do you think it scales? I'm sort of at a crossroads, wether to spend on facets and set pieces with open socket, or go for +skills setup. Nats is very tanky, but I lack dmg for doing anything above T2 at speed. Guess I should go for infinity first and see where I'm at :P
100% need infinity for T3. I tried moon map and a throne without it and even with decent gear it was so slow-going. Definitely save facets for the last thing you do imo. Try to get upgrades while the community is large and items are cheaper.
@@Spanxxxy oh... I do the blood moon fine... I might have a lower threshold for acceptable clear speed though... I'm setting all sails towards infinity then (what a cool sentence...) Thanks for the answer!
so how does MA work in PD2? It looks like its kinda like a pally aura, where you have it selected and just gain the power of the skill when you use a finisher?
It cycles through the elements with each strike, then the finisher does the most damage. You can even use dragon flight to activate the finisher, which is always fun to do when jumping from mob to mob. Does that answer your question? I'm honestly kind of a novice when it comes to sins..first time making one.
I would choose Plague over Bartuc’s and Claw Block is just better than the shield once you fix your resists and get some FBR. I would choose Shaftstop for the life and PDR. Directly investing in Blade Shield is a little weird as an elemental character when you’ll benefit from those points more in Claw and Dagger Mastery.
Maybe I’ll try out dual claw again, but from testing in S7 it was less ideal. I’ll use shaftstop for ubers, but definitely prefer silk for mapping. I think I do like 3k physical, so the leech from blade shield is still worth it imo..also it looks cool..lol.
hello. Is it possible to hunt all maps with this setting? Is there a need for something like Lightning Jewel in the socket? I wonder if it does enough damage.
Yes, this can do all maps. The shortcomings of the build are dealing with decrepify and/or holy freeze monsters, so unless you have good gear and overcap ias/burst of speed to counter, decrep could get you killed. Also, I opt for more damage with my armor/shield, so I only have 15pdr, so amp plus fanat/might could kill you. River of blood or throne of insanity could be harder if undergeared. Also, the boss on pandemonium is super annoying, so I skip this map. I also skip the kej market map due to the fire turrets and map layout. I’ll do an updated build video sometime soon.
Bro idk how you find all these deals and find currency so fast.. I am doing phoenix strike too and I’m not even close to being geared like you. It’s insane. My rng is total ass I hate it!!!
I hope your RNG improves, m8. There definitely needs to be a drive to trade for sure. Being on the trade site and looking through trade channels rather than gaming is the trade off for sure, but I enjoy trading and flipping etc. GL!
There's a monitor icon next to account name on trade site below a listed trade. Clicking the icon auto-generates a copy of the trade message, so you just have to hit paste in a channel, then send. I made a trade site tutorial video if you happen to have any other questions: ruclips.net/video/dgEIdx1kFIY/видео.html
Sorry about that. I have a timestamp to the extended stats in the pinned comment and description to see my res. You can check the armory to see how I allotted my stats.
Damn, that's pretty horrible rune luck. When I map I always reroll until about 150% on T1/T2, then corrupt the map. I always pay more attention to events in maps. If you get the key event that's about a gul rune worth of keys. If you get the WSS event, then it's about a mal/ist at the moment. If you get gheed, then you might get a good item. If you get mend, then you might get a splinter, and even goblins can drop blood moon maps, which are um/mal. I hope your RNG improves mate. Try not to get held up on the big runes. I've only found Lo/Lo/Ber and 3x gul so far. Everything else has been low runes.
The key in PD2 is: don't get demoralized for bad rune drops RNG, you can amass currency in such a wide amount of activities that you can't go wrong. You can run cows which are super generic and one of the historically beloved D2LoD farms, you can run chaos sanctuary + Diablo / worldstone + Baal for essences or PES drops, you can do super fast hell Travincal runs for gold / charms / runes / loot, you can run arcane sanctuary for gg charms / rune drops, you can do key runs (3x3 go for a Vex atm), you can do maps with insane density to force drops and get some nice events every now and then, you can do ubers if you like that kind of grinding, you can even run corrupted areas to amass worldstone shards.
Yup. I had the raven before I got a kira and mentioned I was going to swap out the raven for a wisp. If you check the armory you'll see I already got the wisp since posting the vid. :)

Dope MA sin, always love to see your gear, btw HR's coming i can feel it ;)
Fingers crossed, although can't complain about the deals and most of the pboxes hitting. Ty, bro!
@@Spanxxxy yup! cheers
I’m tempted to go back to this game, I just want to play it on controller. Was so much fun when I played it, just get tired of sitting at a desk.
Yeah, I know there's a massive interest in being able to play with a controller, but I don't thing the team has the resources.
Very good gear going in no time at all. Grats man.
Thanks, m8! Even though my rune drops have been mostly trash, I can't complain about the deals and puzzlebox mostly hitting.
Ur bringing good content. Hope you get more views and stuff ;)
Glad to see ur doin well, I sold you that bartucs at the start of the league!
Ayyy the claw is in good hands. Ty! Glad the pbox hit!
Grats on Feb Tyraels! At least you didn’t have to slam it yourself and potentially brick it 😅
enjoyed this video a lot, keep it up
Much appreciated--ty!
Nice build . You got some good deals on gear
Thanks, m8! Still so stoked about the kiras and string. :D

Haha..I'm happy with the amount I get to game, but having a lot of fun, so wish I could game even more.
Very nice phoenix strike sin. so fast and strong.

@@Spanxxxy oh so you still have to alternate between using phoenix strike and a finisher?
@@JayTheProduct No, I could strictly use PS if I wanted to achieve the finisher I believe.
I think he’s asking what I am wondering as well. Blade shield procs PS automatically, and you just manually click finishers. Is that right?
Impresive build :) could you tell me what filter are you using?
Ty, ty! Kryszard's!
@@Spanxxxy Sick.

How does your game look so clean? What graphic settings are u using?
XBRZ freescale multipass, 1.000/1.000/0.300 luma, FXAA unchecked, color default, bloom effect 1.000/0.750 (I think this was default).
Youre build and gear seem good have you tried mapping? Especially no immunes for you shouldnt be bad
Yup, yup. I've done 30-40 maps I'd guess. I was still just running some cows for a YT vid. :)

damn wish i saw the stat screen
Sorry about that. I have a timestamp to the extended stats in the pinned comment and description to see my res. You can check the armory to see how I allotted my stats.
I did 100 maps my 93 level sorceress and only drop is a single gul rune on runewise. It is character related. Just have to make a new one

@@djnatZOMG I know. Playing since s1 every season ending up in 500hr+ wealth at the end of 1 month then I quit.
you got cannot be frozen on youre helm + a raven frost

Low gamma is nice but that's a bit too much
