Farming for pearls with low drop chance? Great gives me a farm
Farming for pearls with changing parts? Great gives me a chance to keep farming
Farming for pearls that may or may not drop at 60? Waste of time
Why can we not have shit like this fixed? Like im on UVH 6 on a level 60 that has been 60 for a long time.
Come on
I got my first pearl and I’m sure everyone gets this one when they do the stone demon mission.
But I’m wondering if this is a half decent roll for bossing since its ripper sticky with jakobs?
(Phone pick sorry I’m lazy)
Decided to just start at 30 and level them both up with the deciding factor being which hits 60 first. Vex won it for me as I hit 60 with her last night but still tempted to keep trying Harlowe.
Few problems I have with Harlowe is her red tree feels powerful but awful to use, I got her to level 40 and had to switch to Green tree which made her alot more enjoyable. The second issue is outside of her abilities it seems she still struggles to kill while everything is recharging. On vex I have had no issue so far with that and both were using the wombo combo and rocket shield for farming vile bounties.
I do like that Harlowe seems to be able to choose between red and green tree however red trees ability sometimes will not register for me on the second press making me miss the vile enemy or just not go off at all.
Vex has the clones (minions) that I played with for abit and they where pretty fun, I like her green tree more and hope the red becomes viable endgame but minions in Bl4 seem to just be off to me. Except for rafas cannons that carried me through my first play through when it released lol.
Also vile bounties got pretty boring after awhile but they are pretty easy which is nice, from 30-36 was a struggle on both characters even when I took Vex through the DLC on UVHM, ultimately I broke down and farmed a wombo combo every 5-8 levels to make the bounties better.
XP still feels like it needs to be brought up abit higher for some activities, I play a ton of D4 and having various activities that give you good xp in that game then going to only vile bounties in Bl4 did not feel great.
I know there are a few different events you can re do in BL4 but the XP gets beat by Vile bounties, however levels felt more fun when farming those events (bad with remembering names of things but they spawn a boss at the end)
Final point if we can get something in the end game that scales maybe infinitely or you can repeat multiple times for some way to increase affixes on gear would be pretty fun. I know this game is a play until bored then drop but with how it seems they tried to implement a “battle pass” style with XP and quests to earn tokens for legendaries and skins, it would be nice to have a repeatable event that felt worth farming to even get just a tiny bit more powerful. Im not saying full destiny or D4 style but farming all this gear and putting time into this character would be nice to have some way to test it aside from a raid boss.
Before I drop some serious hours into one of these classes im wondering which one is more like a spellcaster or sorcerer type? In other games I tend to run with characters that have some sort of spell casting to them.
Im guessing it is the siren Vex but I have heard from a few videos that Harlowe is like some of the past sirens which peaked my interest as I enjoyed Maya, Amara and Lilith alot.
I did start Bl4 with Rafa but once I hit 50 I wanted to switch but never found the time, things are settling down and with the level cap/dlc I want to start with something im going to enjoy.
Managed to bring down mephisto last night and while im not a huge fan of how the season is kept from progress with this boss, I will say I actually had fun with the challenge.
I switched over to diablo 4 for pretty much the only game I play a ton because its fun to hop on and blast for an hour or two, I use to play alot of souls and soulslike games (pre nerf radahn champion two times), raided mythic content and high level mythic dungeons in wow so I enjoyed the challenge in games more than anything. I got very burnt out after chasing that feeling around two years ago.
This boss actually made me feel that challenge again and get that feeling I did from when I beat Lilith the first time in season of blood.
I will say lilith still has some of the annoying parts that I thought were fixed in the past seasons since they changed how her second phase works if you down here before the platform falls.
Mephisto never felt that far out of reach but the one shot mechanics where something else with this boss, I had a few game breaking bugs happen where he would either kill me at half health with his phase 3 start ability randomly on phase 2 at half health, to just spawning me in phase 3 while he was in phase 2 but nothing was there.
All in all if they took out some of the randomness this boss would be perfect, the red orbs in phase two that heat seek would come out of his body after killing his phase two form and kill me, the loosing of the abilities in phase 3 felt bad especially with one shot mechanics and I think that should of been a one off niche gameplay trick for the campaign. Phase 1 feels pretty good to me and phase 3 felt good after the ability pickup phase. Phase 2 is a nightmare and while the poisen is easy to side step if he disappears for a second on screen (still cannot zoom all the way out in this fight) you will probably get hit with a random heat seeking projectile or 360 no scoped by the chest laser.
Shitty pic attached to show the glitch that required me to leave the game as I could not teleport out or fix it without logging out.
