I also learned something cool with Nether Tentacles. Apparently if you have Sharpshooter all the shots you fire before the first one hit will have the full crit effect on them.
yup!
out of curiousity, why Impale and elemental arrow? Does it make sense to have two abilities using up hatred? When would you use impale over ele?
would it not make sense to swap out impale for multishot?
ele arrow covers ur aoe needs, no need for multi shot. impale is for fast moving enemies. like those annoyign flys in act 2? i one shot those with a crit impale. or if your kiting a mob that has reflect damage, much better to ss x impale xx impale xx run, then to ss , maybe get off like one ele arrow or multihot and have a high chance of killing yourself.
Theres only one way to build / play a dh in Inferno
Ha/da
Tentacles
Ss/lf
Prep/Backup
2 skills u like usually impale, caltrops, Rain of vengeance with stampede, or bat companion
Stat wise do everything to get dps, literally nothing Else matters esp in act 3+
Playstyle wise u just burn everything down before things have a Chance to go Bad, mash ss when things do go Bad and hope u kill enough in ss time.
Imho we actually have it pretty good when it comes to clearing stuff (elites included)
I don’t think anyone has the right to call anyone else a nerd when they’re posting on a video game website. I’m certain that we all accepted our nerd-hood years ago.
My weapon has life steal and doing tons of damage a bear-hit helps replenish life in the chaos. (During Acts 1 and 2).
Acts 3 and 4 were focused on damage rather than hp.
Most gear has mana regen and high int.
Would swap out Grasp out for Voodoo, especially when I’m in a party and teammates could use the buff.
And I liked being lazy and having 3 on constant cooldown then spamming between the two skills to keep Vision Quest active.
Grasp is so useless against teleports and vortex.
But you have to be set on it because swapping out skills in mid-game loses out on your 5 Neph buff.
I also like Fetish Army with Ambush or replacing it with Hex(Jinx) but Army is so good for crowds and or distracting.
Passive skills: I don’t need more mana (Spiritual whatever) and Pierce would drain mana too quick.
I think Jungle helps activate Vessel because I used to get one shot straight to death some times without it.
I’m also able to take an additional hit with Jungle.
When Vessel activates, that’s oh shit let me regain myself and quit playing reckless.
But then again it’s all gear and using it to your advantage.
I didn’t talk about the actual game and besides you’re not in inferno yet.
Re-read what I said about opinions before reaching inferno, that includes yours.
So thank you Mr. Invalid. Shut up.
I win, stay salty, post your depressing desktop again where you thought you were gonna get tons of “Likes” lmao.
I assert my original assertions that TheBladeItself should GoFuckItself

man if anybody knows anyone selling a 1100-1200 2h crossbow with crit damage on it, lemme know plz…
Any Wizards that have soloed or possibly double teamed Belial with another class?
Tips?
I think I just need more DPS so I can kill his snakes faster. Wished the area we fight him in was larger, my Wizard doesn’t do indoor tracks.
I could always skip to Act 3 and try farming that with Tyrael killing elites for me while I’m dead and alt+tab away doing something else.
Noob question about items. I have a bow that has +poison dmg on it. Is the poison dmg already included or do you add it after the dps that is currently listed?
im looking to buy something nicely above 1000, preferably a bow (still dunno if I should make the switch to crossbows). Almost got a million gold, and need something nice to help me get through anything after act 1 of inferno 
current bow is like +55 dex and 967 with no socket
ps - what gems should I have socketed in my weapon and helm?
A mage friend and I (WD) beat Inferno Belial on our first attempt. I think we got incredibly lucky, but he is also very well geared. Me, I’m “ok” geared. As soon as the fight starts, we went to the right side of the map and just stayed there, me keeping up Grasp and I would pop hex if one of the snakes got too close. Bot of us spammed our attacks to the left of us and that’s how we cleared the first stage. Pretty much more of the same during the second stage as well, only focusing our fire more on Belial and spamming our AOE’s (Confuse + Paranoia Rune and Zombie Bears for me) when surrounded by snakes.
Final stage we split to opposite sides of the map and just did the normal Belial thing, avoid getting hit, dps, make sure you have full HP+ spirit walk when he does acid spray, etc.
^_-;
green gem in weapon. and purple in helm.
Haha, I found Wirt’s Original Leg in Act 1.
sharpshooter’s crit bonus applies to every projectile you fire while you have the bonus. with a fast weapon and lots of crit damage, it means all your of nether tentacle shots will do absurd damage
Whats your DPS? I’m at 18k on the screen and I want to know how the fuck I’m supposed to reach 40k or whatever, act 2 would be a cakewalk with that kind of output. Current weapon is 750 and my offhand is about +150, and my gear averages out to about +100 int a piece.
Have you killed Belial already? If so, you’re better off going to Act III to get Negro Install to help you kill elites. If you need help progressing past Belial, I can help.
Me and Toto are getting butt raped in Inferno. The game isn’t fun anymore
