    Hey everyone! It’s the creator here. I’d like to thank Asmongold for once again reacting to one of my videos. This is the second he’s done on stream, but it seems like he’s watched a few off stream as well.
    When he watched my first blow up video mid-May, he really helped motivate me and grow my channel. Since then, I’ve been putting out AT LEAST two videos a week I think are worthwhile watching and the response has been tremendous. Thank you to Asmon for watching and commenting, and huge thanks to all of you for your support.
    Plenty of people comment and say I should be upset as Asmon for reacting, I disagree, it’s helping me out massively as a small content creator looking to grow.

    One major problem even with the Renown they said we didn't have to farm - it didn't track if the progress was on a HC character who died, because you had to log into the character to get credit, and so I completed 4/5 regions on a HC character who later died and now I have to regrind it AGAIN if I wanted the credit, which has honestly been one of the biggest reasons I haven't been logging in.

      There's only literally ONE thing that can save diablo 4 and almost no one will agree with me here even though I'm correct! Focus on being the first ARPG to make PVP good. PVE always eventually gets boring, focus on PVP battlegrounds. 1v1, 2v2, 3v3, 5v5 arenas. and also expand on the current systems. Balance the game around PVP NOT PVE. If Blizzard did that diablo 4 would become one of the best ARPGS ever!
      Blizzard isn't beating the PVE of other ARPS like POE they shouldn't even try at this point. They had their attempt they failed, now scrap PVE focus and go full PVP focus that's the answer!

    I played PoE and I had two builds; one was a Sorcerer build with Goblins or Minions (can't remember what they were called) and I manged to have at least 8 of them out at one time dealing different types of elemental damage. My other build was a "whirlwind" build but I can't remember the class as it has been many years since I last played PoE. On my second build I got to Atlas level 6 and my build was getting strong. The bosses in PoE were badass and even in a big battle arena you could run out of space with the attacks the bosses dished out. Some of the bosses had trash mobs as part of their phases. I remember that when I dropped some great gear for my build at it's level, I felt that I had really deserved that reward after some of the battles were insane. D4 bosses imo are very under par compared to PoE bosses.

Zizaran's beginner league starter builds are also quite nice with detailed act-by-act guides on which passives to get first, how you should get your gear, what gems to prioritise, etc.

    POE is nuts, came has evolved so much, i started to play before act 3 was released and didnt play for 2 years and still has evolved so much.
    I do think they should make something for the newer players so they would not get overwhelmed, like option to streamlined passives or skills and when kitava dies you can unlock real POE.
    Also 2nd char from league should be automatically camp completed, getting tired of making that camp all over again.

      Better than having to buy stashes in PoE, they cost as much as D4 even more. Not to mention PoE skins are infinitely more expensive. 500 dollar bundle anyone ? 🤣

      And yet
      You start off with as many stash tabs in PoE as you do in D4 (without grinding all the gold for them), and each additional one costs you 5-10$, just remember that you paid 70+$ for 4 stash tabs and to uselessly load the entire server's as well as yours (and if you haven't figured it out, at no point do you load other players' stashes in PoE).
      Again, you are at 70$ starting point for skins as well, how much will you spend in the store and battle passes for the skins?
      Anything else?🤣

      Because you were underleveled. I did it on 68 with a blizzard sorc and i just stayed in 1 place and killed it in 20 sec ( from what i remembered) it did only 1 attack that i blocked with my barrier and that was it.
      Also, i didn't try to lvl up intentioannly for that, i just did the story and open world before i went for capstone.... i didn't know ir didn't scale. I had lvl 45-47 items.
      I guess the aspect that gives 30% dmg for standing still also made ir much more easier. But yeah... most boss fighta until NM 30 were just afk 1 shots. Most even died before they were staggered😂😂😂 6-7 blizzards on them + a deep freeze and they would die before the 5 second of the deepd freeze ran out😢

    One of my favorite D4 moments was when I was just walking around and I ran into a random boss. Not a world boss event, just a boss walking around. It was sick. I’ve played 250 hours and it’s only happened once. Also the mechanics were cool but it was too easy.
