Diablo 3: Tips for Leveling in Season 8 for the Solo Player
Starting from scratch can either be a pain or a lot of fun depending on what your goal is during a new season. I like the idea of a fresh start because you get to try a few new things here and there as well as see the progress of a character with little to…

Diablo 3: Demon Hunter Marauder Endless Walk Build for Patch 2.4.2
Typically, for Marauders builds these days, you’ll see the M6 pairing with Focus/Restraint (Bastion of Will), Manticore, Wraps of Clarity and a few other key items. While this build is high in damage, it has a few issues in vulnerability when sentries are not up, is resource intensive and slow. So I want to present…

Diablo 3: The Shadow Mantle Build
Although Season 8’s Haedrig Gift for Demon Hunters will not be the Shadow Mantle set, I decided to goof around a little with this set and see what felt good in trying to come up with a reasonable build. This is by no means a meta build nor is it meant for ultra high Greater…

Diablo 3: Season 8 Class Sets and Starter Character
Season 7 is ending soon and we won’t be seeing any new content for Season 8 beyond changing up the Haedrig’s Gift sets. The good news is that we can begin examining the choices for characters based partly on what the next group of Haedrig’s Gift sets has to offer. Although there hasn’t been any…

Diablo 3: Season 7 Review
I broke down the other day and rebirthed one of my undergeared Witch Doctors as I got that urge to start from scratch again. It didn’t take long to get basic gear and I’m currently struggling to get some of the rarer necessary items. Even though I haven’t played this season that long, I wanted…

Diablo 3: Season 7 Helltooth Witch Doctor Fun Pet Build
I won’t get into how triggered I am regarding the Ring of Emptiness nerf that happened at the last second. That issue deserves a blog post on its own some day. Instead, I want to focus on modifying the Helltooth meta slightly and demonstrate an interesting variation that I’ve been testing out that you can…

Diablo 3: More Ideas on Improving Competitive Leaderboards
While writing my previous Diablo 3 blog, something hit me about the idea of competitive play. Right now, the only source of competition is the highest Greater Rift one can achieve in a season. Unfortunately, the game burns people out quickly especially after the first week since everything revolves around pushing the highest Greater Rift.…

Diablo 3: Too Many Nerfs to Crowd Control and Solution to Seasonal Leaderboards
This latest patch will bring more nerfs to crowd control. Obviously, the issue Blizzard is attempting to resolve is perma-cc situations, which usually are part of the group meta as they seem to want people just playing pure damage builds rather than support builds. There’s been quite a number of nerfs over time to CC…

Diablo 3: Unhallowed Essence vs Marauders
With Season 7 coming around the corner, it’s time to choose a class. I already stated why I’m not going to start with a Demon Hunter this season in a previous blog. But the idea of knowing which set to start with in a season is critical and goes into the essence of the difference…

Diablo 3: Why I’m Excited for the Witch Doctor Meta in Season 7
Season 7 is coming up this week on Friday starting from 5pm PST. While there’s not a great deal of changes for this coming patch/season, the most notable change (at least for me) that will be coming up is the new Witch Doctor meta, where the Ring of Emptiness will open up more diversity in…
