Have a 3+ chaos as well ;) i am only switching out the minions with an ES shield when fighting map boss. The shield spectre+undying warriors locks down rare packs so nicely

There are melee specters which are great as a meat shield, e.g. the shield mob in act 1 which reflects projectiles

I am in maps and are still using spectre(the shield guy from catacombs in act 1)+skeleton warriors. They make such a fine meat shield in the tight corridors many maps have that I haven't been able to justify switching them out for an ES offhand yet.

how long did you have that 20% rarity? I were between 20% and 30% throughout the campaign, which is usually the sweet spot for leveling.

Don't forget to upgrade strongboxes in the campaign to at least magic if you aren't already

As a reference, only done four tier 1 maps since the previous picture and the value of drops are still decent with only 23% rarity.

EDIT: interesting, the pilfering ring fails to register glassblower (I have 10). Found a bug, my job is done!

Currently in maps, having a bunch of fun

They have not at all changed the impact rarity gave during campaign compared to 0.1. It even says so in the patch notes where they specify the nerf to be against reaching high numbers of rarity.

Do I like rarity as a stat? No. Do you need to ignore all useful stats in campaign to maximize your rarity too have good drops while leveling? No. Do I ignore their impact and refuse to wear them so I can rather whine about no drops on reddit? No.

The loot is fine, just wear some rarity gear when leveling

Samesies!

There clearly are things to improve, but there's a lot of fun to have as well

Who do you think are more likely to upvote, click, and comment on this thread. Those who have had decent drops while leveling and don't care, or those who have had a terrible drops while leveling and hate their life?

Just entered maps, rarity on gear when leveling makes a huge difference

There is soooooooooooo many items with rarity when leveling. You don't have to min-max every single other stat when you are leveling. Having a slightly worse item with rarity is way better.

Oh I realize fully that the divine orb is very lucky. However rarity on gear has a huge effect even in 0.2 when leveling. Had something similar on my main and alts when leveling in 0.1. I am quite sure that most that have bad luck while leveling, never bother to put on rarity gear.

Have you wondered why every single type of currency have a quite high (except regal) amount in my screenshot?

Also, who is most likely to click on this thread? Someone who feels that they are unlucky or someone who haven't thought a lot about it because it has been fine for them?

It is such a simple solution that makes a huge difference, but people don't like that answer

Seems fine to me. Act 2 cruel, have had about 20% rarity throughout the campaign.

Just for context, this were the nerf to rarity:

Increased Rarity of Items found Modifiers on items have been lowered at top end. The Suffix Modifier now goes up to 25% at the highest tier (previously 30%), while the Prefix Modifier now goes up to 25% at the highest tier (previously 32%).

When the dam breaks, it always starts with a few cracks.

Lets hope the proverb stands this time

Super easy. Most of them usually lives in a type of rainforest (both tropical and temperate) so it doesn't need much light and the nutrients it gets from the flies. As long you keep it watered, everything is chill.

I don't mind, keep gurgling that sugar daddy bennyboi if it helps fighting Trump and liberating some republicans from the cult

Well the patch was deployed yesterday so there's very little reason to think this is linked. Especially since it only affects EU.

Having the same authenticator server makes a lot of sense actually since the code should be the same with exception of querying a different table in the database (if even that).

The patch came out yesterday and the servers worked completely fine then, it is most likely another issue than the update

are you talking about azure/gcp now or are you talking about your own usage of google/microsoft?

Because we had a huge server blackout in azure in 2023+2024 and both google and microsoft are most likely prioritizing servers for their own services which makes you a lot less likely to experience outage from them.

My english teacher deducted points because according to her I used the Norwegian word glad instead of pleased. She meant that there was no such word as glad in the english language.

Still infuriates me 23 years later

I always wonder how many times that cow urinates a few liters or takes a dump, when they are filming indoors.

Must be a lot of cleanup

Lol what kind of a loser wants an account ban just because someone was enjoying the game?

Don't forget to report their report btw, reddit does not take the abuse of their suicide reporting kindly anymore.

You should try out a tropical pitcher plant, they are crazy effective. We used it in a bar I worked at, because we had a fly problem for a while (the joy of farmland). It took care of it all no problem.
