Next ptr patch incoming in the near 24 hours. (last ptr came live on the same day as it was datamined)

Lets see if I can replicate my achievement with 3rd iteration of m6.



string of ears+numbing traps+gloom. stress free greater rift.
My defensive build probably not optimal for climbing ladders, but is more consistent to level up gems regardless of rift boss type.

2.1.2 tonight??

no, still ptr. but ptr patch is up.

Pylon so weak now. Sometimes cant even clear a pack of elite even with full duration.

marauder 2 piece bonus made me able to reach gr35 with my strafe.


as for m6, feels significantly weaker than 2nd iteration, but at least for me, is stronger than live client.
Managed gr44, was 3rd on the leaderboard since it was just wiped


Also ancient weapons have been ninja nerfed, their damage have been reduced around 10-20% estimated by looking at my ancient calamity.

side note:

apparently m6 bonus is applied both on hero and sentry. (contradicting blue post statement)
if this is true, the gap between rucksack and alternatives (like chakram quiver) is even higher.
like all things Blizzard, we dont know if its a bug or intended.

error 3003

where can I find the details of 3d iteration? I can't find it from official forum.

Ya, I think they didnt update the patch note



Theres a thread opened up concerning the "bug".
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/15537834775

Lets hope blue poster will say something.

Just my 2 cents, but I think the bug will stay, no way dh gonna have enough dps if it isnt the case.
That, or they need to buff the percentage of damage increase per sentry.


I think to avoid dh from being shoehorned into using rucksack, the damage buff needs to be high, but have diminishing stack. So, the gap between 3 and 5 sentries wont be that high.

haizz.... always some rotten egg there spoiling the whole thing. On first page itself got ppl complained it's too strong so hope it's a bug.

Yup.. I managed 400m damage from sentry..

1. What's this talk going around for Pride's Fall hunting in Act 3 for 2.1.2? We're going to do away with TnT?

2. Need opinion about my DH
a) with Hellfire + Zei, i get perfectionist passive. DPS is low 1.9mil while HP is 160k
b) with CJC, i lose perfectionist but DPS reaches high 1.9mil and HP is 220k

Either way, those HP look damn low and I saw others with some 500k HP DH could survive at least one hit from whatever the enemy has.

My CC is above 50% and CD is above 500%.

Should I reduce my DPS to up my VIT / AR?

TnT are dead for DH on PTR. The new M6's sentries now only fire spender when you do.

Pride's Fall most probably geared towards Cold DH; unless you found a really nice Frostburn Gauntlet (since you still need to wear 5 pieces of M6.

I'm back to Fire DH on PTR. Easily reach 400m+ Cluster Arrow with proper setup.

You can invest some paragon points on life %

EDIT:
I just saw your profile. You can get more Vit from your Helm, Pants & Quiver (pray to RNGesus) lol

my quiver, not gonna change for a while. so happy with the drop, rolled a lot for that sentry dmg.

helm, i have one with VIT. pants, i might have one with VIT, have many spares.

Latest development.

So its really a bug regarding m6 on ptr. Im worried, but will hope for the best.
I dont use turbo hud, so I cant say for sure, but I think the generator bonus was also bugged (looking at the low numbers).

Im guessing the hotfix will fix both, we'll see how it goes.

if I run our of hatred then sentry no more nuking?

Hotfix is up. gg.

My highest is now gr39. Could probably push for 40, but too lazy to try.

Highest dh on leaderboard is currently 44.

You pretty much melt through everything on t6.

Unless it's GR. You have to spam generator lol. That's why they say Krider/Seething Hatred is BiS now.

wtf mang, I need to shoot 7/8 times just to get max hatred.

where got such free time in high grift lelz

Make time.

You still have to shoot; since sentries works that way now

high grift got time? with paper toughness, have to lompat here, lompat there, dodge this, dodge that..

there will always be a way. the community just haven't found it yet

There are ppl debating about RCR and Hatred regen right now
