*It turns out yes you can level up by unbinding all of the attack hotkeys! And that XP can magically teleport across different postal codes!* This strategy can obviously be refined and done in easily one hour but I wanted this to be as casual as possible!
~Sighs~ this does not work at 50+ because necromancer and your skellys are made of wet tissue paper between the buttocks of a zombie. So this is not an exploit. Nor is it overpowered. And your party would be required to carry your necro so much there back would hurt. next your skellys kills count as your kills as well.... thus contribute to xp sharing. ~sighs~ another person who is unjustifiably calling for nerf of necro minion build. You have not really shown a exploit... I love alot of what you do, but this is just failure. Come on... Jesh.
Spiffs attitude and use of the LAWLS Sec thing have always had me wonder if he was one of the members of that team from back in the day, less trolling government agencies, but the sense of humor seems about right, I enjoy it.
I just got a UA-cam rating thing pop up on your comment, so I gave it an excellent mark, and put relatable, and funny. Also true to the content creator, not sure what it means but great comment. Lmao I just reviewed a comment...
The "loot goblin" story around 40 min is about the WoW loot goblins of the satirical corporate greed faction, Venture Co, (that has existed since launch of the game) and a higher up saw some of the lines and somebody got fired over it. Those lines were included in promotional material before and after they were fired until he pointed it out on twitter and removed the promotional video
Loot goblins were also introduced into D3. High hit point monsters that randomly appear, initially on a 15 minute timer. Pacifist monsters that in D3 ran to nearby elites... making it impossible to kill them before they timed out and used petals to disappear. Later on in D3 they created several types of goblins: for gold, loot, and limited phoenixing.
Fairly standard Diablo feature at this point, powerleveling existed in both D2 and D3 in the same sort of vein. In D3 you literally just opened a rift, went AFK at the start of it and went from level 1 to 70 (cap) in under ten minutes or so.
@@toastedt140 D3 stayed alive with minimal cheaters for quite sometime (pc not console) and was still played after D4 dropped because of the horrendous load times when it first dropped.. but yeah you do you xD
I like the idea of a failed necromancer who can't actually summon undead minions, so he just follows living people around trying to get them to do stuff for him.
I did not expect the disclaimer at the beginning. Big ups. Sad that you didnt go into detail, but I suspect that is because the video would be age-gated.
Brilliant! Been a 'Diablo' fan since day 1 of the OG. Question for you: can this game be played at all effectively singleplayer? Thanks for the content, good sir. I tip my tea cup to you.
Yes. It’s ‘always online’ and MMOey so you’ll bounce into other people occasionally as you wander the world (with unique individual instances for Dungeons, etc), but I’ve been playing Single Player since early access and it’s been fine and pretty fair. For example, I’ve died occasionally, but each time it’s always felt like my fault for not dodging/healing at the right timing compared to ‘This is impossible without a party’ kind of thing. The only part that I’ve really had difficulty with playing alone is depending on your build, some of the Events are hard to get the Mastery bonus on. For example, there are some random events in the wild where you have to protect like, 3 merchants hiding under their carts from waves of enemies … And that can be rough because sometimes they’ll be fairly spread out so as you’re trying to clear the wave on one end the other is getting hanged up on and falls before you can get to it.
The 3rd letter in the Greek Alphabet is Gamma. It goes Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Zeta then Eta, Theta, Iota, Kappa, Lambda, Mu, Nu, Xi, Omicron, Pi, Rho, Sigma, Tau, Upsilon, Phi, Chi, Psi, Omega.
This with the Spiff just standing around for hours on end is somehow less boring than other Diablo IV Streams where they actually play it - brilliant game...
I leveled my wife's character from 1-100 this season (S2) by having her character just follow mine. And I mean, she isn't playing, just logged in her controller and let it auto-follow. I haven't played on her controller, except the occasional health pot. Shared screen on Xbox is sweet lol. And yeah, she still hasn't got on to Diablo at all this season, hahaha. World first AFK 100? Maybe :D
I'm just saying, nobody has ever seen Bobby and Mr. Stay-Puft together in the same room. Someone needs to charge the stage at his next speaking engagement and scream "ZUUUUUL."
I'm not sure if you figured this out yet or not but XP range in D4 is infinite. You just have to be in the same instance. Following people around was really only for content, you can wait at the front door and still accomplish what you were after lol
2:53:20 a macro to move your character while you're afk for extended periods isn't a good idea, it's liable to be detected by anti-bot algorithms in the game which may then attract a ban for TOS violation in many games, so an arrangement with a drinking bird or some other desk toy to physically nudge the mouse may be a safer path to take 🤪
This might be a exploit but it's really inefficient. I got to level 50 in about 6 hours of gameplay and that was going through the campaign. I skipped all the cutscenes but they still waste time. On my second character, my rogue I am at level 45 and I've put in about 4 hours of playtime. There are some legitimate ways to quickly level up in this game and a lot of them just come from experience with other ARPGs.
Diablo 4 is an entertaining game, but it lacks potential for repeat play since it doesn't allow moding. For example, 7 Days to die. It still isn't out of Alpha after many years. But it is the game I have most steam hours on at over 10,000. Why? Because of the modding. There are at least a dozen complete make over mods that comes close to completely making over the game giving it a replicability I've never seen before . . . ever. Magic, you got it. Earn skill points by using a skill. You got it. Build . . . well just about anything, you got it. Cheese the game, or play by the rules, you got it. If Diablo 4 had the potential for these types of mod, I'd be playing it know, but . . . well, no. I played though to level 91 I think, and stopped 'cause I got bored, and never started again. That was about 4 months ago. Or take Skyrim, Fall Out 4, or even Dying Light 2. They can be modded and I've played them over and over again.
It was a nerf that most people including youtubers complained after the Beta during server slam. Blizzard did tune Necro however it was very late on server slam event
I think the live stream video is almost the same, minus a few little jokes and what not, but I suppose I omost didn't notice the fat chat log just big chillin to the right. Lol, damn I'm dumb sometimes
I couldn't help myself i just had to stop take s second and join the discord, see what the hell spiffs cooking under the hood, probably some world domination plot, figured I'd save my ass by joining the winning team before it's too late.
1:12:55 _Technically_ Cookie Clicker is pay to win under that definition as there's a perk you can get that gives you an extra 1% cps for each top tier parton Orteil (the creator) has. So if you become a top tier Orteil patron, you (and every other player who picked that perk) get 1% more cookies every second 😛
It's funny, even as a kid I always thought it strange that someone not simply use a gun / missile / explosives to kill all these dark wizards running around threatening the world. It honestly killed my interest in Harry Potter, and now as an adult I feel pretty vindicated haha.
Not an exploit. Clickbait. Party XP sharing is a feature and one we need. If you only got credit for your own kills (or full credit for own kills and partial for party kills), there'd be no incentive to play tanks, healers, supports, or anything that doesn't do the maximum amount of damage and try to kill steal each other (or outdps each other if it's percentage based). Cue griefing, so you get more xp by fucking your own teammate up and you end up with the most cancerous game possible. Yeah, there's a reason we don't do games like that anymore. clowns.
with this logic killing enemies with fireball is also pacifist, you just shoot the fireball around don't actually kill enemies, because the fireball is killing them
I thought world bosses were on a timer. Kind of like the loot goblins... which basically they are the grown up version... once the timer runs out the world boss despawns.
If your managing a billion dollar company that you did not create but keeping it going and steady and making more money - then you're doing a great job a lot of people cannot do that
*It turns out yes you can level up by unbinding all of the attack hotkeys! And that XP can magically teleport across different postal codes!*
This strategy can obviously be refined and done in easily one hour but I wanted this to be as casual as possible!

Do it solo, then i'll be impressed ;)
@@revoktorment440 but then I would have to try xD
Diablo 4 is a perfectly balanced game with no exploits whatsoever
E
Big facts i never seen such a well balanced game no exploits whatsoever 👍
This is a perfectly balanced comment to a perfectly balanced video of a perfectly balanced game with no exploits :)
This is a pretty common way to power level, especially if much higher level characters carry you
Any game Spiff touches is automatically perfectly balanced with no exploits

This isnt an exploit, this is Spiff being lazy AF
Yea I know some exploits that don't need me to hit directly tho I play dioblo 3 😊
Boby Kotak fired an employee who’s been putting jokes about corporate greed into WoW
Nobody tell him about the goblins in WoW or he'll want to nix them next.
I see Ghom (an obese glutton demon lord in D3) and think: Bobby! You’re in the game!
We demand more Connor entertainment any time Spiff takes a tea break
“I was playing the bloody game” made me laugh unreasonably
Great stream. Not a fan of the new layout, sorry M4ngo. Screen is too small now. Love you Spiff.
I did not expect the disclaimer at the beginning. Big ups. Sad that you didnt go into detail, but I suspect that is because the video would be age-gated.
Imagine going out on a date with a lady and she looks you up and sees that picture of you with glowing green eyes.
I can't believe I missed the livestream! :(
Thanks for tge video regardless.

That’s a pretty strange tea sound at 32:50
Ah, a Boris Johnson style run.
@thespiffingbrit you should totally make a video about playing as many games simultaneously. Perfectly balanced times 10?
Havent even watched the video and still have a like. To use Bobby K. as a threat is...effective.
Diablo and pacifism is not a combo I ever thought was possible.
MacroBioBoi has the patience to play pacifist builds just to see if it’s possible. D2R. I think MrLlamaSC has done pacifist builds in D2 and D2R too.
Just woke up to your diablo 4 pacifist challenge

Seeing Bobby knocking on my door is easy the most scary situation imaginable
It will be still early access state when D5 comes out. xD
As IF they would patch things. They already got your cash.
Alpha beta gamma delta. I read a science fiction piece decades ago... and that is the only thing that stuck in my head.
@37:10 you became my favorite UA-camr 😂
I think the stream setup takes up too much space . Can you enlarge the game play screen?
I'm not sure if you figured this out yet or not but XP range in D4 is infinite. You just have to be in the same instance. Following people around was really only for content, you can wait at the front door and still accomplish what you were after lol
Door step camping makes for a very boring video though. But it is the 0 effort way to go.

At what level can Bobby Bone raise enough skeletons to run his own Tea plantation?
Few games let you Rush other people these days.... Was that the term? It's been so long I forget. Power leveling?
Ok, but diablo 2 has actual pacifist speed runs where you finish the game solo without attacking anything.
Yeah this was disappointing
Ah yes the British Pacifist Technique sometimes referred to as the Rothschild Method. Excellent.
Thumbs-up for playing both verses of the British national anthem 👍1:19:50
2:15:54 Spiff, that's incest. Hundreds of generations of separation, but still.
"I was playing the bloody game"
And people wonder why developers don't read most of the feedback. 🤣
The game's easy if you get four barbs together with thorns everything just dies so get ready for a nerf
2:53:20 a macro to move your character while you're afk for extended periods isn't a good idea, it's liable to be detected by anti-bot algorithms in the game which may then attract a ban for TOS violation in many games, so an arrangement with a drinking bird or some other desk toy to physically nudge the mouse may be a safer path to take 🤪

Fair
About 20 min in and not one mention of "I wouldn't be caught dead fighting as a necromancer " 1/10 EA/Todd Howard energy
with this logic killing enemies with fireball is also pacifist, you just shoot the fireball around don't actually kill enemies, because the fireball is killing them
Just watched your most recent video, pretty strange I got recommended this……
So by Spiff's definition Charles Manson was a pacifist. Seems legit.
What an entertaining stream
this is just a normal boosting for whoever is doing dmg
Did Diablo IV really just tell you that "You must gather your party before venturing forth"? Hilarity!!!
so Diablo 4 looks like just a diablo 3 expansion
what the hell is pacifist you have to kill bosses to complete the quest how the hell are you going to complete anything if you dont kill.
crashed before leaving the character creation. Wow
missed the stream ;(
Corgi noises! Hooray!
I would have wished to see a solo pacifist world boss fight.. I think that would take 3hrs as well
I thought world bosses were on a timer. Kind of like the loot goblins... which basically they are the grown up version... once the timer runs out the world boss despawns.
