Again, not your first character. I'd be doing the same if I didn't rush my ass off to WT3, pretty much skipping all renown shit and material farming, hence why all my gear is crap and I have no gold/resources to improve my shit. And I'd do it all again. Fuck early game. Pretty much nerfed the hell out of myself. The manliest way of playing D4.

Why would one not want to min-max in Diablo? The entire point of the game is to maximize what your character is good at and minimize what he's not, to more efficiently kill the thousands of things you click thousands of times on.

I mean it's not like there's any actual roleplaying going on...
This thread is for people who are playing/have been playing Diablo 4, Liberal. Have you spent $70 on Diablo 4 and are actually playing it now, or do you still have literally nothing to contribute to the discussion?

Rogue in D4 is the fucking GOAT Diablo class. And I don't think it's a coincidence that she's the only class from the OG Diablo to return as a playable character. Blizzard knew they had to make her special and by god they did.
*him. But yes, Rogue is by far the strongest class. Hearing stories of sorcerers running around with 4 defensive skills just to stay alive is hilarious. :lol: I don't have a single defensive/evasive skill, apart from the tiny jump that I get from Caltrops and the basic Evade. It's all purely offensive, split into direct attacks (basic & core skill plus imbuement) and traps (poison, death, caltrops).

The aspects on legendaries have allowed me to maximize the effectiveness of all of these skills, including one awesome aspect that creates an explosion around my character when I cast the imbuement (and another one that drops bombs when I evade), making every single skill a damage-dealer. Running into a large group of enemies and casting everything I have all at once makes all the weaker enemies explode, which refreshes all of my cooldowns (thanks, ultimate passive!) and lets me do it repeatedly until everything dies.

It's very satisfying to see all the different skills, passives, paragon nodes and aspects tie in together to form a killing machine.

*her.

Rogue is canonically female according to Diablo 1 & 2. And the same can be said for the Sorceress because Diablo 2 (no D3 does not count). The Rogue and Sorc should ALWAYS be played as female. Even Blizzard understands this since there are hardly any male centric transmogs for those characters in the game.

Lol I found that same exact chest piece with my Sorc. Sold it immediately.

abija you ain't got shit on me. I'm arguably one of the greatest D4 players to ever live.

Top that, bitch.

No, females are incapable of good combat. Fake and gay canon = DISCARDED.

If you're playing as a male Rogue you're doing it wrong. You're basically writing fan fiction. Gay fan fiction. You're commiting the same crimes as the people who made that all-female Ghostbusters remake. Fucking treason.

The only reason my Rogue is a bitch right now is because I don't have the time to get her where she needs to be during the week. I can only spend around 3 hours a night playing. Not nearly enough time to get the materials, gold, and renown I need to beef her up so she's currently underpowered af. I should have enough time to turn that around this weekend.
Lvl 53 explaining lvl 30 he has too little time to play. Poor guy, only 3h per day playing d4...

Either way there is no way in hell a Sorc can face tank that boss unless they already buffed the shit out of her.
Btw this is what facetanking looks like: https://youtu.be/aNAEmWB24xo?t=668 Check how many projectiles from that ability hit me. All you had to do was hit boss in the face... You recorded this boss so many times and apparently fought him much more. Still running like a headless chicken instead of hitting boss when he isn't doing anything to you.

https://youtu.be/aNAEmWB24xo?t=675
Finish off useless add, take a long detour to get to boss (while playing ranged spec) so you avoid attacks that barely do any dmg to you. You apply vulnerable to boss, then instead of hitting boss, building combo points etc, you run around, even go back to get a potion when you still have 8/9. All of this with a ranged build, instead of spending all this time in the middle of the room shooting the boss.
10/10 Kotaku gameplay.

Pretty sure I'm the only S1 Diablo 4 player here to basically skip early game and jump right into WT3. Underleveled and undergeared. I'm not trying to say I'm the biggest badass here, but I'm probably the biggest badass here.

I wasn't paying that close of attention. I went off what you said because for some reason I trust you. You said 30. My mistake for trusting you. Don't worry I'll never make that mistake again.
Char level?

Not exactly sure what you mean by "skip/jump right into/rushed to" but sure as hell you didn't do any of that :D You kinda sorta tried to but capstone dungeon was too hard. I'd say you probably finished that at higher level than other people here that weren't "rushing".

If you're playing a female anything, you're a tranny.

I know our hatred for Crispy defaults us as allies, but careful what you say. Certain things cannot be unsaid and you are walking the tight rope my friend.

That's why SDG hedges his bets and only plays men or men dressed as women.
This debate is old. I play as women because I enjoy seeing tits and ass. It's the most ungay way to live life as a gamer. And D4 features almost zero gender confusion. There's only dicks and pussies. The only outlier is the female Necro which I have no argument for. That is 100% a transgender.

You're only reinforcing my point that having female protagonists is a crime.
Then why tf are you playing D4? Diablo has had female protagonists since the beginning of time. By giving male options for the Rogue and Sorc Blizzard are shamelessly dick washing.

It's also had male protagonists since the beginning of time. That's the ones I always picked. Duh.

No shit sherlock. I think gender options in Diablo were a mistake. Rogue and Sorc should always be female, Barb and Necro should always be male, etc etc
