1. Do the campaign in WT1, skip everything you can 2. After campaign, stay in WT1, work on renown and do ALL the Altars of Lillith for a massive +58 points on all stats (account wise, good for alts) 3. Lv45-50 unlock WT3 4. Farm Helltide WT3 for upgrade materials, tree of whispers for sigils and nightmarr dungeon to level up your glyphs At this point you can upgrade your weapon and armor to 3 or 4 stars as the grind to approx 70 will take a while 5. Congrats you can unlock WT4
I don't get that "rush to the end game" mentality, you're basically playing 20-30 hours on easy mode wiping screens of mobs that can't touch you just so you can play the same thing with bigger numbers and some challenge this time. I'd recommend start right of with WT2, don't bother rushing the campaign or anything like that, just play the fucking game dude you'll hit 30 by the end of act 1, this game isn't meant to lvl up by farming the same 2 things repeatedly, the world is huge and there's an assload of side content, experience it at the maximum difficulty available straight from the beginning instead of rushing through it just to do it again but hopefully better this time... If you struggly with WT3-4 when you unlock them, at that moment go and read up on aspects, legendary effects and such and voilà problem solved you'll find something you want to try in no time, look up where it's at and get on it. Once you've finished the campain you can ignore it on alts and the world is somewhat scaled to your level so you'll be able to brainless rush an alt whenever you want especially with those account wide buffs so why would you inflict that upon yourself and rush a fine game.
@@khorneflakes2175 its kinda as u say in ur first sentence “mentality” u like slow and some like fast why be annoyed if someone likes to play the game different? For me i get most fun out doing something as efficient as possible (atleast close to, whenever i feel like that) I don’t see the fun in being lvl30 at the end of act 1 like that sounds crazy so high just for act 1
My feed right now: One content creator: make sure to upgrade your gear as you’re levelling as you’re not going to miss that small amount of gold once you reach end game. Another content creator: do not upgrade any gear as you level as it’s a waste of gold. Me in reality: I don’t own Diablo. I love UA-cam.
Definitely don't fully upgrade your gear, but the first 2 upgrade levels are basically free, so you might as well get them, especially on your largest stat contributors (likely weapons and chest armour). This gives you a bit of an edge in WT2, but if you're switching gear very quickly, you're basically wasting gold.
Yeah there are alot of people trying to become content creators for this game and i dont blame them.. but spitting their opinion as fact could stop people from clicking videos if its just flat wrong. Of course you are going to spend the 2 min of game time spent to upgrade the first couple of levels or you are throwing away dps that makes you clear the game faster. This would assume you are building correctly as well. Also the take that you would remove aspects from legendary items is wrong in most cases. Why would you take a base level Barb only skill off a ring when you are level 51 and should now be getting sacred armor that is way way better for you. Ive played about 24 hours since launch and my barb is in sacred/ancestrial and i will never use regular apects again on him. They fixed the bug that let you use base level aspects on higher tier gear
The first 3 upgrades cost you such little gold and mats. It also takes like a minute to update all your pieces. Definitely not a waste of time or mats you’ll need later
Yea once lvl 40+ upgrade ur gear to at least the 3rd upgrade. The Stat boost and damage boost will allow you to save much more time killing stuff you will gain what it cost to upgrade in no time.
@@sherrihaight2724 good question, it’s per every item. Very very cheap especially as you get higher. There’s certainly a point to stop picking up blues, then only to pick up ancestral rares, then just legendaries because you have so much excess gold and mats
I’d say from lvl 1-50 it is more than OK to level up some of your items, you can upgrade them to level 2 for almost nothing and it will help you in those lower levels.
Level up gear to get it over breakpoints to the next level, e.g. if you have a good 2-h weapon at item power 450, lvl it up to 450+10 to get it to the next breakpoint and the affix stats will bump up significantly
@@Terracronz My rule is I always level up my weapon at least twice, I only level up other gear if I can get it over a breakpoint with 3 upgrades at most. That has served me relatively well and I got to lvl 50 with 3 and a half million gold left and quite a good amount of mats.
Now most of this advice is good except the part about "saving aspects" - you are going to get so many useless legendaries and more aspects, and higher tier items have higher aspect rolls. For example had an aspect where marksman skills have a chance to drop an arrow storm doing 1700 damage (near max roll), got an ancestral item for WT4, put THE CODEX VERSION of that aspect on it and it drops an arrow storm for 2400 - don't hoard/waste your aspects by ignoring/saving them for most of your gameplay time. Most average/casual players probably won't even make it to level 70/WT4
@@philronholm6264 Depends on the aspect. If it's a %, generally the higher tiers are the same. Like the Pulverize one, it's 50-100% no matter what, unless you put it on a 2H that doubles it. So definitely save max rolls that don't change depending on tier.
I disagree with the whole wait till 50+ to add codex aspects to your gear. Some aspects (example for rogue, the twisting blades aspect) is so game changing that you should put it on immediately because it will not only improve your leveling time, but is so much fun to use theres too much upside to wait.
Yeah, it's extremely stupid not to keep renewing the key aspect of your build. Any material cost is covered by how more effective you actually are, even if you considered just the 'effectiveness' part of this argument
He said specifically for max rolls... and unless you can just keep extracting the power back, which contradicts what he says, I can see it as a valid point... if you need a solid max roll to kill things before pushing higher tiers, something is more wrong than just your gear.
Some of the side quests have multiple parts to them, and later side quests reference the others. These side quests are my favorite, because they add to lore, net far more experience, and have players going to dungeons, new parts of the map, and so on. It’s nice that they’re not all just fetch quests, and do change some things in game. :)
I've been surprised with the quality of the side quests in this game. Other games make them seem mundane but in this game I think that some of the side quests are actually really fun and interesting.
Lol I had a full aspect build by 30 and was blowing the dungeons away - capstone was a EZ. If you want to put aspects on your stuff do it. It’s part of the game. There are defensive ones that help you survive. It’s really cheap to put aspect on your gear and in 50+ you will get a bunch of mats.
Too many people are advising "always do this" or "never do that" when a middleground is perfectly fine if not ideal. Upgrading gear for example; you shouldn't fully upgrade every piece you get while leveling but if it's a piece with a stat that really makes your build feel smooth (weapon dps, cooldown reduction, resource generation, crit chance, etc) then for sure throw a couple upgrades on it. And you can absolutely sell SOME gear if you need to. Same with codex; if it's an aspect that makes your build feel good then put it on ASAP low roll and just save the best roll of it you have for mid-end game (if it's a perfect roll I'd save it at least until early world tier 4 starter ancestral piece)
Always put aspects on gear that makes your build functional - such as the aoe for hota, or the aoe for flurry. As far as upgrading, if you're a flurry rogue, upgrade your daggers, but not your ranged. If you're WW barb, your 2HS should be upgraded, etc.
i just bought the game and somebody helped me beat the game (they were lvl 100 sorc) and unlocked WT4 for me. but i didn't know what to do afterwards and they didn't help me with that so THANK YOU for making this video and giving me not only guidance but knowledge as well.
Definitely save perfect rolled usable aspects for your build. I usually only imprint when I have multiple rolls of the same aspect. The perfect ones keep for lvl 60+++
Another little tip, transmogs, titles and campaign completion are account wide, not just bound to normal or just hardcore. So you can unlock stuff on a normal character and it will transfer to any character, including ones made on hardcore
@@eddyram4932 I agree! A bonus with transmogs is the pvp set. If you get the pvp set, it actually works for ALL classes! So you only ever have to buy it once. Love starting an alt and equipping the pvp set
@@UzGotNoSk1llz I haven’t got to pvp yet, but that sounds dope. Right now I’m almost lvl 47 and still on act 2 of the story missions😂 I got a compulsion to go explore the map.
@@eddyram4932 You can explore much faster once you unlock the mount. I finished the story at 48 with almost no altars collected, with the mount it took almost no time at all to collect all of them.
For certain build to works at lv 1-50, you can put aspect in your rings. You don't need to change your ring as frequently as other gears. A working build way more important than saving few materials or meager sum of gold. Just be sure not to use the max potential extracted aspect.
I just do it whenever I change weapon anyway. It costs next to nothing compared to the main's imprinting and you pick up the materials on the floor in T4. Definitely worth doing as well as upgrades up to level 3 or 4 if it speeds up the killing.
Yep Amulet & rings definently use imprints for the "important/must have aspects" - i would suggest never imprinting weapons though as you will change these constanty. (the aside from this is depending if your a barb or rogue as skills are dependant on certain weapons ie: flurry rogue leveling does not use bow skills so you could technically imprint the bow and never change it until endgame)
Getting over power thresholds in gear for lowest and highest percentages on armor bonuses should absolutely be upgraded. And imprinting codex isn’t a terrible idea at all. Little to no recourse use and you form decent low-level builds
You can do 1 upgrade. Rawhide and iron is everywhere and easy to obtain. Not doing that 1 upgrade on a legendary or god roll rare is the noob mistake. Free damage is free damage. More armor will keep you alive better if running t2 starting off. My 500-550 t2 gear is still carrying me in t3 with a highly specialized build.
PSA FOR BARBARIANS: If a Legendary Aspect is allowable on a 2h weapon, your tool tip show “double” that amount as the maximum roll. This is not a bad roll, this is an armor or one handed weapon roll. Amulets get 50% bonus. 2h gets 100% bonus. Do not destroy these until you verify.
ya i was wondering why the % aspect on a 2 hand staff was reduce from 50% once extracted from the item, so if i put that aspect on another 2handed staff i should get the full % ?
Can someone explain why somtimes when I add a damage affect from the codex which is always suppost to be the lowest amount but the damage it gives is less then the lowest roll the game says it should have
I found that around the mid thirties to early 40s it was worth selling every third bag full of junk or so just to start building gold. You'll need lots of materials, but you need tons of gold too... 🤷🏻♂️
..gears at higher lvls is worth 10x as much for selling but yield the same amount of crafting materials from salvage. So just salvage until at least 50.
@@helloman3676 the difference in price for lvl 35-40 gear vrs lvl 50 gear was literally 5-10k not 10x.... Just sayin... World tier 3 mid 50s sell for around 15-25k, I was selling weapons primarily in the 35-50 for 10-17k.... By the time I hit 50 I had close to 2 mil, which isn't huge, but was a nice help rolling into T3...
@@helloman3676 lol... I have more than enough materials... But here's a novel idea, you play your way and I'll play mine... Like I said, it was a strategy that worked for me... I certainly didn't say anyone has to play this way....
Should I be wearing good rare gear if it's better than my legendary or even uniques if I'm level 60? Some of the aspects are for my build so I've had a hard time using better gear because I am scared to lose the aspect, but don't want to apply the well rolled aspect to gear that won't be relevant in 10 levels.
The way I see it take your best rares and imprint them with your aspects you need, you will find like a million other aspects to replace them, but if you have a perfect roll save those!
I have over 350 hrs in the game and did not know about the Barbarian weapon thing. I have not leveled my barb up to 100 yet so haven’t missed out on much, but I’m happy to learn something new. Thanks!
I just got D4 last night and have never played a Diablo game before now. I'm intrigued by all of the customization, but holy hell is this a steep intro. I'm trying not to screw myself long term, but the amount of currency, vendors, menus, etc is staggering. I just got to level 14 with a sorcerer, completed my first dungeon, and got 4 legendaries. I'm still not sure what to be looking for or doing with regards to armor. I've been trying not to spend $ on my anything until I understand the systems more, but that could take a long time. Any general tips for a newb?
Honestly don’t overthink it! Just have fun and enjoy the game. Releasing a video tomorrow going over the gearing system to explain it. Know how aspects work really and just play, it will all come naturally
@@tmenke88 I'd say just visit every vendor in the main city once per gaming session to see if you've unlocked anything. You'll usually only have enough materials to use their services a couple times anyways. If you do this enough you'll eventually get the hang of who does what and who sells what. But you're not missing out on much even if you ignore them, the blacksmith gear vendor and the jewlers are the 3 I visit the most leveling up. The jewler to remove gems from sockets or add sockets. And the blacksmith repairs my gear. The vendor is to sell junk. Etc. If you've played destiny or borderlands I'd say diablo is really not much more complex than either of those games.
Dont hoard aspect early in the game, a lot of the time you get dupes. Now, if you get a good piece that goes with your build then yea by all means hold on to it.
Hi. Not sure i get the expertise part correctly (building up a Barb). Can you explain it again plz or give another example ? Wich technique and wich weapon to choose
A note: Yellow gear is quite often worth _one_ reroll to get rid of a useless stat and make it an upgrade. If the other stats aren't perfect it isn't worth two.
my gosh...so glad I saw this late than never...I remember being able to remove natural aspects from legendary weapons back in D3. I didn't realize until now that you can still do that. I've just been salvaging my gear for materials. Good thing I've only had 4 legendaries...but I still regret not extracting first.
only one thing i don't agree with you that don't gear up! *Start Gearing at lv50-55 .So you can solo everything at world tier 3/join group exp and not die all the time!~make sure all grate stats* this gear lv50-55 will cost a lot of gold and hard work to get all the stat and items but worth it . that will boost you until lv70 then start new game even new builds
I’m glad I watched your video. I haven’t wasted much money but had no idea exactly what the Aspects were used for until now. I’ll be playing D4 a lot differently now. Thank you.
Remember that you only get to complete the main campaign on a character once! Yep, regardless of how OP you might get, you are not going through the story again on that character, regardless of world tier. If you just care about story, then do it however you like because all the hours after are just grinding for "fun."
Here another huge mistake: Do not commit to complet the MQ with a best friend if he or her being in a fresh relationship...HUGE mistake. I'm currently lvl 53 and not close to complete this MQ...HUGE MISTAKE!
For biginers : You want to use aspect for codex of power on rings and amulet that has 24 lvl max - thats because using aspect on that lvl items is heap.
Thank you very much for explaining the way the rolls work with Aspects. I was confused a bit. (I didn't play D3) I thought that percentage scaled with your level, or with the item level of the gear. And if nobody explained it... How would you know? I have saved 90 legendary items and I can now easily tell which items to DE or sell. TY so much bro!
never sell the legendary either extract or salvage, just learn that habit today and boy i have a tons saved lol i just talk to blue quest and if it involves dungeons i'll do it right away especially if its in my class. great tips i'll sure use them in my gameplay. just love the complexity of this game
I dont really fw upgrading either, however- i did make like 2-3 of all the basic gems for wt1 & 2, & it seems to help out quite alot. Is it a waste? Probs, but my barb benefits from the armor & healing a bit so i think it was a good move so far
Can you extract an aspect, put the new aspect on another item, then extract from that new item to get the same aspect back? In other words, can you maintain the same aspect as you get gear replacements?
Thank you so much for the video! I just wanted to ask you a question: Do you know what year we're in today? I mean, most people are long past lvl 50, and you just posted this video yesterday. I'm just honestly curious, mate.
'Unless you're having fun of course'. I'd say just do a blind playthrough of the campaign first, and do whatever you feel like doing in terms of experimenting, side quests, events, etc. After that you can start optimizing. I am a min/maxer myself so I have a very hard time following my own advice, but I generally regret it every damn time when I blast through a game and then get frustrated I blasted through a game.
I have a question, aspects gained by completing dungeons are the buffs automatically applied to my character? Or do I have to imprint them on something? Thanks!
Have to imprint them onto gear. Unlocking it from the dungeon is more so allowing you to use the aspect as many times as you want and unlocking that aspect for all characters.
@@CreativeGamingUA-cam thank bc I’ve been struggling to generate spirit as a Druid and have a few of the codex of powers but was afraid to use them thinking they’re one offs. Was saving them for later levels but realize now I don’t have too.
I’m a level 29 sorcerer and I’ve upgraded most of my gear that has anything to do with fire damage and mana cost reduction and I have add rank to sorcerer skills because I’m having so much fun just absolutely melting everyone. I just light firewalls non stop and incinerate everything that moves. It makes the game easier when you upgrade your gear you just end up having less materials… which you can get more of.
I'm still kinda new to Diablo. But I do have a question. If anyone can help. If I do a dungeon for a different Class ability,example as a Rogue I do a Necromancer ability related Dungeon, Do I unlock that ability,for when I decide to play as a different character? I hope that makes sense...
Yes, your Codex powers (unlocked via dungeons) are account wide, like your altars of Lilith and Renown rewards. Edit: the Powers u extract from legendaries that go in your inventory are bound to that character, I think
The thing I want to know is how do I compare two pieces of gear while leveling to see which is actually an upgrade for my class. Like if I have a barb, and they are wearing a chest piece with +15 strength, item power level 100, then I have a new chest that's item power 200 but has +15 dex on it, is that an upgrade? Is it not? Is it for rogues? These fricken items make no sense to me because all the stats do SOMETHING for you.
I’m not 100% sure if this is true but I noticed that if I upgrade a legendary to +1 before salvaging, I will always get the legendary salvage material. 2:30
I use the trash legendary affixes from the collection for my early gear, it's the lowest possible version of the affix, but it's quick, cheap & reliable. (beats being heavily undergeared to save the affix)
Great early days guide, clear and concise and not from the perspective of a lvl 100 trying to remember what it was actually like for someone who doesn't do this as a job :) .
Renown does not get your alt character it’s mount at level 1. When you fire up a new character after finishing campaign on another you have the option to skip campaign, and will start with your mount
Neither of you are right. You don’t have to skip the campaign to have access to your mount at level 1. You just have to have completed the mount quest one time on one of your character, to have it enabled at level 1 in any other new character (skip or not it does not matter)
People need to clarify the difference between "aspects" and "codexes." Do not break down a max roll legendary with twisting blades aspect and put it on a piece of gear immediately. Walk your ass down to the dungeon that gives you the codex for twisting blades, complete it, then slap it on everything you want. Codexes are for giving you access to legendary gear that unlocks new potential builds. Aspects are for min-maxing those builds. Just use codexes until you find your dream gear.
I heavily disagree with the no aspects thing. I do think you shouldn't go overboard with it, but holy shit do a few of them help you greatly, to the point where as long as you have a half-decent ring to put it on then you'll probably be rocking it for anywhere from 20-30 levels. It's a worthwhile investment. Recharging Resource Aspect for Chain Lightning Sorcerer being a prime example of this. It massively boosts your damage output against single enemies such as bosses. Most aspects are not as impactful, but they exist. So the advice should honestly be "don't sweat it too much, only do the bare minimum" rather than anything else.
Thanks for the video - had a Barb question, I'm using the 2h sword for WW, but on the other weapons does the Damage per sec matter at all for my damage output? I know the stats that are below the line matter wasnt sure about any thing above the line.
You can only roll items with aspects of the same tier. No point hanging onto good rolled low tier aspect. Use it if its important one on 2h or amu as these items All comes alive at ancestral item level tho Get to t4 asap gear is amazeballs even trash drops it
Main advice: Enjoy the game, play it in a way to make it most enjoyable for you. For me it was Tier 2 all the way through campaign to make it at least little challenging and I could careless if I were to be faster on Tier 1. But some of the advice offered hear was just plainly incorrect 1) Look up the Aspect you can get from dungeons, and add them to your codex. Afterwards keep it on your gear for the whole duration of leveling as the key powers are more powerful/useful than few item levels. Don't do it for every piece of gear or every aspect. Just these you are actually using 2) Don't be afraid to change your build/playstyle be it due to gaining a new skill, or getting interesting legendary. Skill points can be refunded on quite okay price at lower level and it's fun to experiment around. 3) Renown: You can get first three rewards even during campaign and it's actually very nice as each zones gives you two skill points. Only the last two rewards of each zones require Tier 3 or higher. But don't worry. If you gain renown towards locked reward you will just get it at the same time you unlock it ;)
Theres so much materials and gold that upgrading equips under level 50 is fine. I was upgrading gear two times every time I got a new piece, and I still have hundreds of materials in the 80s.
Right after the game dropped, I got to play it for exactly one day. Then I go to sleep that night and wake up at 1am with the most intense pain I've ever felt in my life in my right flank. I wake my girlfriend up "I'm dying. Help me. Help me please!" I was collapsing onto the floor and vomiting. So she rushes me to the hospital where I find out I'm passing 2 medium sized kidney stones. That was Wednesday, I think. I can't be sure. I've been so drugged up since then, but nothing really helps with the pain. I'm told this could last for weeks, and every time the pain hits, it lasts for hours on end and I feel like I'm dying. I've mostly been in bed or in a warm bath, but when I'm in a lull and the pain has subsided, I've been watching yours and a few others videos on the game. I can't play, or don't feel like playing right now, but at least I can bookmark useful information to help me get back into it once this nightmare is over. So, I wanted to say thank you. It gives me sdomething to look forward to.
Another thing about the helltide stuff is I would find a map that points out the usual locations of mystery chests. There's, from my experience, one per sub-region and it isn't shown on the map. They cost 175 to open but I've gotten 3 sacred orange drops at the minimum, usually more like 4 or 5 along with whatever elixers and other stuff.
Not every Aspect extracts at the number shown. I’ve seen many Aspects rolled really high and often extract at half the percentage from the original gear.
Because those have bonuses for the particular item slot you saw them on! Once you extract them, they show the normal values. But if you imprint them on bonus slots, they give the original values that you saw!
You don't have to switch weapons the barb exprotesis even though it says two handed sword or axe, once you equip the expertise you like it tells you works with any equipped weapon so I can get the benefits using the polearm expertise with my two handed sword
Gold costs scale on some items, on my 55 rogue the mount saddle was 5mil gold at the vendor. Made a lvl1 necro and checked the vendor and bought it for like 5k instead.
I disagree on aspects and on upgrading. A Hota barb, for example, would benefit greatly from the hota AOE aspect and it should go on every 2H hammer. That hammer being the only weapon whose dps matters, should be upgraded. If you're leveling quickly, perhaps no, but if you find a decent piece, throw the aspect on and upgrade it - it will drastically improve TTK and QOL.
Okay, here's the mistake I've made. I know very little about this game, just started four days ago. I sold a lot of items instead of salvage. Have I doomed myself? Do I start my necromancer over? If I do, do I lose everything I've gotten into my character so far? Level 24, wearing great armor (at least I believe so) and I'm wearing and / or saved a minimum between 2 to 4 legendary items. How badly did I mess this up? I appreciate feedback if anyone has time. ❤
Pretty great advice. I’m new to this series and I can say I’ve sold a ton of shit. I don’t think I’ve found much legendary gear other than what I wear. The builds are a little bit confusing and I hope I’m not just wasting points on dumb shit. I’ve quickly learned that buying just attacks is not a smart idea.
One thing that i have learned in Diablo 2,3,4 is this.. Do not skip anything in the game or you will miss information about the story and items witch will help you progress :)
Certain aspect you extract, it can get weaker once extracted. Example I extracted aspect that lets me have 3 skele mages, once extracted it only said 2 skele mages. Also some dmg ones get weaker when extracting. Hope this helped
Different things you have to consider. You can find better aspects and you have to check where the aspect is more powerful. For example in a 2h, or somewhere else.
I'm guessing that was a legendary amulet. Remember, amulets buff aspect by 50% and 2-H weaps buff by 100%. If you were to apply it to an amulet, it would be at +3 again.
@@Erebeth101 Not all aspects get buffed in this way though, you have to know which ones do, the one that gives you skelly mages gets buffed by 50% putting it on an amulet doesn't get buffed by 100% putting it on a weapon.
@@Erebeth101 And some aspects are ring only, and can't get either the +50% or the +100%, you need to know what aspects can go on specific slots before you extract them with a gear piece in mind. The point is it didn't lose anything by extracting it, it gained it by being on an amulet.
1. Do the campaign in WT1, skip everything you can
2. After campaign, stay in WT1, work on renown and do ALL the Altars of Lillith for a massive +58 points on all stats (account wise, good for alts)
3. Lv45-50 unlock WT3
4. Farm Helltide WT3 for upgrade materials, tree of whispers for sigils and nightmarr dungeon to level up your glyphs
At this point you can upgrade your weapon and armor to 3 or 4 stars as the grind to approx 70 will take a while
5. Congrats you can unlock WT4

70 will take a while huh tell that to the guy in my clan he no life D4 and hit 71 on the 3rd day.
I don't get that "rush to the end game" mentality, you're basically playing 20-30 hours on easy mode wiping screens of mobs that can't touch you just so you can play the same thing with bigger numbers and some challenge this time.
I'd recommend start right of with WT2, don't bother rushing the campaign or anything like that, just play the fucking game dude you'll hit 30 by the end of act 1, this game isn't meant to lvl up by farming the same 2 things repeatedly, the world is huge and there's an assload of side content, experience it at the maximum difficulty available straight from the beginning instead of rushing through it just to do it again but hopefully better this time...
If you struggly with WT3-4 when you unlock them, at that moment go and read up on aspects, legendary effects and such and voilà problem solved you'll find something you want to try in no time, look up where it's at and get on it.
Once you've finished the campain you can ignore it on alts and the world is somewhat scaled to your level so you'll be able to brainless rush an alt whenever you want especially with those account wide buffs so why would you inflict that upon yourself and rush a fine game.

Ive played about 24 hours since launch and my barb is in sacred/ancestrial and i will never use regular apects again on him. They fixed the bug that let you use base level aspects on higher tier gear
It is a must if you are in hardcore
The first 3 upgrades cost you such little gold and mats. It also takes like a minute to update all your pieces. Definitely not a waste of time or mats you’ll need later
Yea once lvl 40+ upgrade ur gear to at least the 3rd upgrade. The Stat boost and damage boost will allow you to save much more time killing stuff you will gain what it cost to upgrade in no time.
@@XingCollectablesexactly this. Also gives you ability to quickly grind nightmare when you get there for your actual replacements
First upgrades per item, or per character?
@@sherrihaight2724 good question, it’s per every item. Very very cheap especially as you get higher. There’s certainly a point to stop picking up blues, then only to pick up ancestral rares, then just legendaries because you have so much excess gold and mats
You should absolutely always lvl your gear to 3 star as the mats are laughably easy.
I’d say from lvl 1-50 it is more than OK to level up some of your items, you can upgrade them to level 2 for almost nothing and it will help you in those lower levels.
Level up gear to get it over breakpoints to the next level, e.g. if you have a good 2-h weapon at item power 450, lvl it up to 450+10 to get it to the next breakpoint and the affix stats will bump up significantly
@@Terracronz My rule is I always level up my weapon at least twice, I only level up other gear if I can get it over a breakpoint with 3 upgrades at most. That has served me relatively well and I got to lvl 50 with 3 and a half million gold left and quite a good amount of mats.
Now most of this advice is good except the part about "saving aspects" - you are going to get so many useless legendaries and more aspects, and higher tier items have higher aspect rolls. For example had an aspect where marksman skills have a chance to drop an arrow storm doing 1700 damage (near max roll), got an ancestral item for WT4, put THE CODEX VERSION of that aspect on it and it drops an arrow storm for 2400 - don't hoard/waste your aspects by ignoring/saving them for most of your gameplay time. Most average/casual players probably won't even make it to level 70/WT4
@@philronholm6264 Depends on the aspect. If it's a %, generally the higher tiers are the same. Like the Pulverize one, it's 50-100% no matter what, unless you put it on a 2H that doubles it. So definitely save max rolls that don't change depending on tier.
I got an early item with an extra dash charge and upgraded that like crazy because it was just too useful.
I disagree with the whole wait till 50+ to add codex aspects to your gear. Some aspects (example for rogue, the twisting blades aspect) is so game changing that you should put it on immediately because it will not only improve your leveling time, but is so much fun to use theres too much upside to wait.
This is the worst piece of advice. Even if you're not playing HC, this bad advice.
Yeah, it's extremely stupid not to keep renewing the key aspect of your build. Any material cost is covered by how more effective you actually are, even if you considered just the 'effectiveness' part of this argument
He said specifically for max rolls... and unless you can just keep extracting the power back, which contradicts what he says, I can see it as a valid point... if you need a solid max roll to kill things before pushing higher tiers, something is more wrong than just your gear.
@@ConformistOwl No, that was addition later. Check the pretty much first advice. And that just wrong
@@_Tomon Oh I see it now, yeah no that's terrible advice.
Some of the side quests have multiple parts to them, and later side quests reference the others. These side quests are my favorite, because they add to lore, net far more experience, and have players going to dungeons, new parts of the map, and so on. It’s nice that they’re not all just fetch quests, and do change some things in game. :)
I've been surprised with the quality of the side quests in this game. Other games make them seem mundane but in this game I think that some of the side quests are actually really fun and interesting.
Totally agree
They are exceptionally done in my experience so far, loving the game 👹
Yup!!😊
Lol I had a full aspect build by 30 and was blowing the dungeons away - capstone was a EZ. If you want to put aspects on your stuff do it. It’s part of the game. There are defensive ones that help you survive. It’s really cheap to put aspect on your gear and in 50+ you will get a bunch of mats.
Agreed with this!! The game is fun and you should use your stuff if you want and have fun!!
I’m not UA-cam comment guy. But your barb whirlwind build guide has me melting. Cheers. You earned my sub
Thanks!! Glad you are enjoying it
You're now a regulation comment leaver
u must be hungry for D*ck
@@CreativeGamingUA-cam p0.m0l90s
Too many people are advising "always do this" or "never do that" when a middleground is perfectly fine if not ideal. Upgrading gear for example; you shouldn't fully upgrade every piece you get while leveling but if it's a piece with a stat that really makes your build feel smooth (weapon dps, cooldown reduction, resource generation, crit chance, etc) then for sure throw a couple upgrades on it. And you can absolutely sell SOME gear if you need to. Same with codex; if it's an aspect that makes your build feel good then put it on ASAP low roll and just save the best roll of it you have for mid-end game (if it's a perfect roll I'd save it at least until early world tier 4 starter ancestral piece)
Always put aspects on gear that makes your build functional - such as the aoe for hota, or the aoe for flurry. As far as upgrading, if you're a flurry rogue, upgrade your daggers, but not your ranged. If you're WW barb, your 2HS should be upgraded, etc.
i just bought the game and somebody helped me beat the game (they were lvl 100 sorc) and unlocked WT4 for me. but i didn't know what to do afterwards and they didn't help me with that so THANK YOU for making this video and giving me not only guidance but knowledge as well.
Definitely save perfect rolled usable aspects for your build. I usually only imprint when I have multiple rolls of the same aspect. The perfect ones keep for lvl 60+++
Another little tip, transmogs, titles and campaign completion are account wide, not just bound to normal or just hardcore. So you can unlock stuff on a normal character and it will transfer to any character, including ones made on hardcore
Transmogs are a godsend in this game. My low level characters don’t have to run around looking like clowns with mismatched armor😂
@@eddyram4932 I agree! A bonus with transmogs is the pvp set. If you get the pvp set, it actually works for ALL classes! So you only ever have to buy it once. Love starting an alt and equipping the pvp set
@@UzGotNoSk1llz I haven’t got to pvp yet, but that sounds dope. Right now I’m almost lvl 47 and still on act 2 of the story missions😂 I got a compulsion to go explore the map.
@@eddyram4932 You can explore much faster once you unlock the mount. I finished the story at 48 with almost no altars collected, with the mount it took almost no time at all to collect all of them.
@@alexclark4792 yeah, I hear ya, but at the same time I’m waddling my ass all over the map😂 ain’t no rush either way
For certain build to works at lv 1-50, you can put aspect in your rings. You don't need to change your ring as frequently as other gears. A working build way more important than saving few materials or meager sum of gold. Just be sure not to use the max potential extracted aspect.
Yeah man, I stopped the video after the aspect tip, very bad advice. Getting specific aspects and imprinting them early helped me blast through 1-50.
I just do it whenever I change weapon anyway. It costs next to nothing compared to the main's imprinting and you pick up the materials on the floor in T4. Definitely worth doing as well as upgrades up to level 3 or 4 if it speeds up the killing.
@@SasKP what world tier?
Yep Amulet & rings definently use imprints for the "important/must have aspects" - i would suggest never imprinting weapons though as you will change these constanty. (the aside from this is depending if your a barb or rogue as skills are dependant on certain weapons ie: flurry rogue leveling does not use bow skills so you could technically imprint the bow and never change it until endgame)
Getting over power thresholds in gear for lowest and highest percentages on armor bonuses should absolutely be upgraded. And imprinting codex isn’t a terrible idea at all. Little to no recourse use and you form decent low-level builds
I'd suggest upgrading the legendary gear if you're going to extract the aspect, as the item power of that aspect can be higher then it was originally.
This never clicked in my head, thank you for mentioning this.
Never knew this thanks
@jbd0283 It's not guaranteed, but have had it increased before
You can do 1 upgrade. Rawhide and iron is everywhere and easy to obtain. Not doing that 1 upgrade on a legendary or god roll rare is the noob mistake. Free damage is free damage. More armor will keep you alive better if running t2 starting off. My 500-550 t2 gear is still carrying me in t3 with a highly specialized build.
PSA FOR BARBARIANS: If a Legendary Aspect is allowable on a 2h weapon, your tool tip show “double” that amount as the maximum roll. This is not a bad roll, this is an armor or one handed weapon roll.
Amulets get 50% bonus. 2h gets 100% bonus. Do not destroy these until you verify.
ya i was wondering why the % aspect on a 2 hand staff was reduce from 50% once extracted from the item, so if i put that aspect on another 2handed staff i should get the full % ?
@@toxicosam this is barb shit, no answers for a staff 😂
Can someone explain why somtimes when I add a damage affect from the codex which is always suppost to be the lowest amount but the damage it gives is less then the lowest roll the game says it should have
@toxicosam yes a max roll will gain the 100% bonus when added to a 2h
@@XingCollectables nice thx
I found that around the mid thirties to early 40s it was worth selling every third bag full of junk or so just to start building gold. You'll need lots of materials, but you need tons of gold too... 🤷🏻♂️
..gears at higher lvls is worth 10x as much for selling but yield the same amount of crafting materials from salvage. So just salvage until at least 50.
@@helloman3676 the difference in price for lvl 35-40 gear vrs lvl 50 gear was literally 5-10k not 10x.... Just sayin... World tier 3 mid 50s sell for around 15-25k, I was selling weapons primarily in the 35-50 for 10-17k.... By the time I hit 50 I had close to 2 mil, which isn't huge, but was a nice help rolling into T3...
@@marshallmcelmurry7087 Money is not the concern....materials are much harder to obtain.
@@helloman3676 lol... I have more than enough materials... But here's a novel idea, you play your way and I'll play mine... Like I said, it was a strategy that worked for me... I certainly didn't say anyone has to play this way....
Should I be wearing good rare gear if it's better than my legendary or even uniques if I'm level 60? Some of the aspects are for my build so I've had a hard time using better gear because I am scared to lose the aspect, but don't want to apply the well rolled aspect to gear that won't be relevant in 10 levels.
The way I see it take your best rares and imprint them with your aspects you need, you will find like a million other aspects to replace them, but if you have a perfect roll save those!
I have over 350 hrs in the game and did not know about the Barbarian weapon thing. I have not leveled my barb up to 100 yet so haven’t missed out on much, but I’m happy to learn something new. Thanks!
I just got D4 last night and have never played a Diablo game before now. I'm intrigued by all of the customization, but holy hell is this a steep intro.
I'm trying not to screw myself long term, but the amount of currency, vendors, menus, etc is staggering. I just got to level 14 with a sorcerer, completed my first dungeon, and got 4 legendaries. I'm still not sure what to be looking for or doing with regards to armor. I've been trying not to spend $ on my anything until I understand the systems more, but that could take a long time.
Any general tips for a newb?
Honestly don’t overthink it! Just have fun and enjoy the game. Releasing a video tomorrow going over the gearing system to explain it. Know how aspects work really and just play, it will all come naturally
@@CreativeGamingUA-cam I'm getting the hang of things so far. It's been really fun so far.
@@tmenke88 I'd say just visit every vendor in the main city once per gaming session to see if you've unlocked anything. You'll usually only have enough materials to use their services a couple times anyways. If you do this enough you'll eventually get the hang of who does what and who sells what. But you're not missing out on much even if you ignore them, the blacksmith gear vendor and the jewlers are the 3 I visit the most leveling up. The jewler to remove gems from sockets or add sockets. And the blacksmith repairs my gear. The vendor is to sell junk. Etc. If you've played destiny or borderlands I'd say diablo is really not much more complex than either of those games.
Dont hoard aspect early in the game, a lot of the time you get dupes. Now, if you get a good piece that goes with your build then yea by all means hold on to it.
Hi. Not sure i get the expertise part correctly (building up a Barb). Can you explain it again plz or give another example ? Wich technique and wich weapon to choose
Have a video coming out in an hour and it will explain
@@CreativeGamingUA-cam Thank you
it's unbelievable how in depth this game is. it's amazing so far
It truly is!!
I'm still uncertain about weapon skills. I have a sorceress. What would be the weapon of choice?
Great video with actual information that might be beneficial throughout the game. Keep up the good work ❤❤
A note: Yellow gear is quite often worth _one_ reroll to get rid of a useless stat and make it an upgrade. If the other stats aren't perfect it isn't worth two.
If you remove an aspect does it unlock the salvage transmog? Or is it just wasted
my gosh...so glad I saw this late than never...I remember being able to remove natural aspects from legendary weapons back in D3. I didn't realize until now that you can still do that. I've just been salvaging my gear for materials. Good thing I've only had 4 legendaries...but I still regret not extracting first.
Thank you for this video. Just started playing this weekend and at lvl 25 I didnt know about alot of these yet.
only one thing i don't agree with you that don't gear up!
*Start Gearing at lv50-55 .So you can solo everything at world tier 3/join group exp and not die all the time!~make sure all grate stats*
this gear lv50-55 will cost a lot of gold and hard work to get all the stat and items but worth it . that will boost you until lv70 then start new game even new builds
I’m glad I watched your video. I haven’t wasted much money but had no idea exactly what the Aspects were used for until now. I’ll be playing D4 a lot differently now. Thank you.
Remember that you only get to complete the main campaign on a character once! Yep, regardless of how OP you might get, you are not going through the story again on that character, regardless of world tier. If you just care about story, then do it however you like because all the hours after are just grinding for "fun."
you can do it again by joining someone who hasn't finished it I think
Here another huge mistake:
Do not commit to complet the MQ with a best friend if he or her being in a fresh relationship...HUGE mistake.
I'm currently lvl 53 and not close to complete this MQ...HUGE MISTAKE!
Haha
Can I ask, why should you ignore renown until level 50?
For biginers : You want to use aspect for codex of power on rings and amulet that has 24 lvl max - thats because using aspect on that lvl items is heap.
The tool tip and the % rolls is a great take away for me. Thanks.
Thank you very much for explaining the way the rolls work with Aspects. I was confused a bit. (I didn't play D3) I thought that percentage scaled with your level, or with the item level of the gear. And if nobody explained it... How would you know? I have saved 90 legendary items and I can now easily tell which items to DE or sell. TY so much bro!
it wasn’t in D3 so you’re not alone it’s new to us all
never sell the legendary either extract or salvage, just learn that habit today and boy i have a tons saved lol i just talk to blue quest and if it involves dungeons i'll do it right away especially if its in my class. great tips i'll sure use them in my gameplay. just love the complexity of this game
Thanks for the tips! This is certainly much more entertaining than those MCAT flashcards in the back!
I dont really fw upgrading either, however- i did make like 2-3 of all the basic gems for wt1 & 2, & it seems to help out quite alot. Is it a waste? Probs, but my barb benefits from the armor & healing a bit so i think it was a good move so far
Can you extract an aspect, put the new aspect on another item, then extract from that new item to get the same aspect back?
In other words, can you maintain the same aspect as you get gear replacements?
Nope. Once you apply an extracted aspect, it's a one and done deal.
Truly incredible message, brother 🙏. Needed this word in a big way, God bless you all for shearing your time and knowledge with us.
Thank you so much for the video! I just wanted to ask you a question: Do you know what year we're in today? I mean, most people are long past lvl 50, and you just posted this video yesterday. I'm just honestly curious, mate.
great video bro, great job🎉
'Unless you're having fun of course'. I'd say just do a blind playthrough of the campaign first, and do whatever you feel like doing in terms of experimenting, side quests, events, etc. After that you can start optimizing. I am a min/maxer myself so I have a very hard time following my own advice, but I generally regret it every damn time when I blast through a game and then get frustrated I blasted through a game.
I have a question, aspects gained by completing dungeons are the buffs automatically applied to my character? Or do I have to imprint them on something? Thanks!
Have to imprint them onto gear. Unlocking it from the dungeon is more so allowing you to use the aspect as many times as you want and unlocking that aspect for all characters.
@@watchingyoutube_ so theoretically can be used more than once as opposed to taking it from a legendary item?
Yes can be used infinitely if in codex of power from dungeons!
@@CreativeGamingUA-cam thank bc I’ve been struggling to generate spirit as a Druid and have a few of the codex of powers but was afraid to use them thinking they’re one offs. Was saving them for later levels but realize now I don’t have too.
3:04 how to open this "Region Progress" window please?
can we zoomout on the game? the distance is veryclose :(
So if my aspect is imprinted on my amulet theres no eay i cam extract it right?
@2:26 that is hilarious! I feel it everytime i salvage lol
I’m a level 29 sorcerer and I’ve upgraded most of my gear that has anything to do with fire damage and mana cost reduction and I have add rank to sorcerer skills because I’m having so much fun just absolutely melting everyone. I just light firewalls non stop and incinerate everything that moves. It makes the game easier when you upgrade your gear you just end up having less materials… which you can get more of.
Nice!!
I'm still kinda new to Diablo. But I do have a question. If anyone can help.
If I do a dungeon for a different Class ability,example as a Rogue I do a Necromancer ability related Dungeon, Do I unlock that ability,for when I decide to play as a different character?
I hope that makes sense...
Yes, your Codex powers (unlocked via dungeons) are account wide, like your altars of Lilith and Renown rewards.
Edit: the Powers u extract from legendaries that go in your inventory are bound to that character, I think
@@sterlingarcher5698 thanks for clearing that up for me. Appreciate it.
The thing I want to know is how do I compare two pieces of gear while leveling to see which is actually an upgrade for my class. Like if I have a barb, and they are wearing a chest piece with +15 strength, item power level 100, then I have a new chest that's item power 200 but has +15 dex on it, is that an upgrade? Is it not? Is it for rogues? These fricken items make no sense to me because all the stats do SOMETHING for you.
GREAT info!!👌🏾.. I'm kinda new to the Diablo series, played a lil bit of 3 so this vid helps a lot..THANKS!!💪🏾💪🏾💯
I’m not 100% sure if this is true but I noticed that if I upgrade a legendary to +1 before salvaging, I will always get the legendary salvage material. 2:30
Whoa
I use the trash legendary affixes from the collection for my early gear, it's the lowest possible version of the affix, but it's quick, cheap & reliable. (beats being heavily undergeared to save the affix)
Totally agree
Great early days guide, clear and concise and not from the perspective of a lvl 100 trying to remember what it was actually like for someone who doesn't do this as a job :) .
Glad it helped!
Renown does not get your alt character it’s mount at level 1. When you fire up a new character after finishing campaign on another you have the option to skip campaign, and will start with your mount
Neither of you are right.
You don’t have to skip the campaign to have access to your mount at level 1. You just have to have completed the mount quest one time on one of your character, to have it enabled at level 1 in any other new character (skip or not it does not matter)
Great video man ❤
Thanks!
Is every aspect on gear available from a dungeon or are there aspects that aren't part of the 150 dungeon aspects?
There’s a lot of strong aspects not from dungeons.
Imprinted from codex always give u lowest possible roll aswell
@@machoman9101 Lowest roll is still better than not having an aspect for your build while waiting for a good roll or leveling to a higher tier.
You should be putting aspects on your gear as early as possible... it's legit game changing.
Agreed! I tried it after making this and was like wow!!
Do dungeons require grouping?
Use the low lvl aspects because you will farm better versions of it later on... don't fret it
People need to clarify the difference between "aspects" and "codexes." Do not break down a max roll legendary with twisting blades aspect and put it on a piece of gear immediately. Walk your ass down to the dungeon that gives you the codex for twisting blades, complete it, then slap it on everything you want. Codexes are for giving you access to legendary gear that unlocks new potential builds. Aspects are for min-maxing those builds. Just use codexes until you find your dream gear.
I heavily disagree with the no aspects thing. I do think you shouldn't go overboard with it, but holy shit do a few of them help you greatly, to the point where as long as you have a half-decent ring to put it on then you'll probably be rocking it for anywhere from 20-30 levels. It's a worthwhile investment. Recharging Resource Aspect for Chain Lightning Sorcerer being a prime example of this. It massively boosts your damage output against single enemies such as bosses.
Most aspects are not as impactful, but they exist. So the advice should honestly be "don't sweat it too much, only do the bare minimum" rather than anything else.
You are totally right
Thanks for the video - had a Barb question, I'm using the 2h sword for WW, but on the other weapons does the Damage per sec matter at all for my damage output? I know the stats that are below the line matter wasnt sure about any thing above the line.
I believe you get the bonuses but the Dps matters for the weapon you are actually using with that skill
This is great advice
However; I like doing the Open World & Side Quests, before I run Campaign; it's an old habit & tradition of mine
Best info vid for a newbie I've seen yet thanks! Specific quick and to the point
"Turn on the advanced tooltip"
**mind explodes**
Had NO idea that existed
You can only roll items with aspects of the same tier.
No point hanging onto good rolled low tier aspect.
Use it if its important one on 2h or amu as these items
All comes alive at ancestral item level tho
Get to t4 asap gear is amazeballs even trash drops it
Can't you just extract an aspect from the gear you put it on so basically you can just keep transferring it to new gear?
Are you aware that you get more mats back for salvaging upgraded gear?
I upgraded everything along the way. Farming for more gear is pretty much the whole game. Agree with getting all the lillith, and renown.
Main advice: Enjoy the game, play it in a way to make it most enjoyable for you.
For me it was Tier 2 all the way through campaign to make it at least little challenging and I could careless if I were to be faster on Tier 1.
But some of the advice offered hear was just plainly incorrect
1) Look up the Aspect you can get from dungeons, and add them to your codex. Afterwards keep it on your gear for the whole duration of leveling as the key powers are more powerful/useful than few item levels.
Don't do it for every piece of gear or every aspect. Just these you are actually using
2) Don't be afraid to change your build/playstyle be it due to gaining a new skill, or getting interesting legendary. Skill points can be refunded on quite okay price at lower level and it's fun to experiment around.
3) Renown: You can get first three rewards even during campaign and it's actually very nice as each zones gives you two skill points. Only the last two rewards of each zones require Tier 3 or higher. But don't worry. If you gain renown towards locked reward you will just get it at the same time you unlock it ;)
Theres so much materials and gold that upgrading equips under level 50 is fine. I was upgrading gear two times every time I got a new piece, and I still have hundreds of materials in the 80s.
That's fun to see people explaining that their way to play is the best...
I play like I want.
Right after the game dropped, I got to play it for exactly one day. Then I go to sleep that night and wake up at 1am with the most intense pain I've ever felt in my life in my right flank. I wake my girlfriend up "I'm dying. Help me. Help me please!" I was collapsing onto the floor and vomiting. So she rushes me to the hospital where I find out I'm passing 2 medium sized kidney stones. That was Wednesday, I think. I can't be sure. I've been so drugged up since then, but nothing really helps with the pain. I'm told this could last for weeks, and every time the pain hits, it lasts for hours on end and I feel like I'm dying. I've mostly been in bed or in a warm bath, but when I'm in a lull and the pain has subsided, I've been watching yours and a few others videos on the game. I can't play, or don't feel like playing right now, but at least I can bookmark useful information to help me get back into it once this nightmare is over. So, I wanted to say thank you. It gives me sdomething to look forward to.
Super helpful. Thank you very much. First timer here and I understood everything.
Another thing about the helltide stuff is I would find a map that points out the usual locations of mystery chests. There's, from my experience, one per sub-region and it isn't shown on the map. They cost 175 to open but I've gotten 3 sacred orange drops at the minimum, usually more like 4 or 5 along with whatever elixers and other stuff.
Thank you for explaining the aspects and extracting. I had no idea
Wait so I can put my Blade dancers aspect on something and then use it again when I find a better item to put it on? I got it from a dungeon
Super helpful. And Im glad I was doing most of these but its nice to hear it confirmed.
Not every Aspect extracts at the number shown. I’ve seen many Aspects rolled really high and often extract at half the percentage from the original gear.
Because those have bonuses for the particular item slot you saw them on! Once you extract them, they show the normal values. But if you imprint them on bonus slots, they give the original values that you saw!
You don't have to switch weapons the barb exprotesis even though it says two handed sword or axe, once you equip the expertise you like it tells you works with any equipped weapon so I can get the benefits using the polearm expertise with my two handed sword
Great & simple video; Thank you for this!
Absolutely!! Have fun!
ty for this. i didnt know about the max roll aspects thing
Gold costs scale on some items, on my 55 rogue the mount saddle was 5mil gold at the vendor. Made a lvl1 necro and checked the vendor and bought it for like 5k instead.
lol
I'm lvl 43 and haven't even unlocked my pony yet. And I upgrade everything, all the way! Next character I'm going to try your tips, though.
I disagree on aspects and on upgrading.
A Hota barb, for example, would benefit greatly from the hota AOE aspect and it should go on every 2H hammer. That hammer being the only weapon whose dps matters, should be upgraded.
If you're leveling quickly, perhaps no, but if you find a decent piece, throw the aspect on and upgrade it - it will drastically improve TTK and QOL.
Okay, here's the mistake I've made.
I know very little about this game, just started four days ago. I sold a lot of items instead of salvage.
Have I doomed myself? Do I start my necromancer over? If I do, do I lose everything I've gotten into my character so far? Level 24, wearing great armor (at least I believe so) and I'm wearing and / or saved a minimum between 2 to 4 legendary items.
How badly did I mess this up?
I appreciate feedback if anyone has time. ❤
Great video. Thanks for all the tips. But one thing that kept getting to me…it’s kill 2 birds WITH one stone. 2 birds aren’t IN one stone 😂
lol u right
never played any diablo and started in diablo iv, I'm lv 48 and I don't have any idea of what I'm doing :D thanks for the tips
How did I only now found this channel? Such good vids man! Good explanation, no excessive and unneeded information,... Keep doing what you do man!
I love the tips from guys that haven't even played the game enough to have the renoun.
I have the renown and this video was posted on day 2 of release. CHILLL
Pretty great advice. I’m new to this series and I can say I’ve sold a ton of shit. I don’t think I’ve found much legendary gear other than what I wear. The builds are a little bit confusing and I hope I’m not just wasting points on dumb shit. I’ve quickly learned that buying just attacks is not a smart idea.
One thing that i have learned in Diablo 2,3,4 is this.. Do not skip anything in the game or you will miss information about the story and items witch will help you progress :)
Love the info...but my OCD is kicking in... 2 birds WITH one stone. Why would they be IN the stone? Lol sorry. I just to.
Learned alot, thanks 🎉
Certain aspect you extract, it can get weaker once extracted. Example I extracted aspect that lets me have 3 skele mages, once extracted it only said 2 skele mages. Also some dmg ones get weaker when extracting.

Different things you have to consider. You can find better aspects and you have to check where the aspect is more powerful. For example in a 2h, or somewhere else.
I'm guessing that was a legendary amulet. Remember, amulets buff aspect by 50% and 2-H weaps buff by 100%. If you were to apply it to an amulet, it would be at +3 again.
@@Erebeth101 Not all aspects get buffed in this way though, you have to know which ones do, the one that gives you skelly mages gets buffed by 50% putting it on an amulet doesn't get buffed by 100% putting it on a weapon.
@Alex Clark true in this specific case, but that's because it can't be on a weapon. Thus, no 100% buff for having it on a 2-H. It's a utility affix.
@@Erebeth101 And some aspects are ring only, and can't get either the +50% or the +100%, you need to know what aspects can go on specific slots before you extract them with a gear piece in mind. The point is it didn't lose anything by extracting it, it gained it by being on an amulet.
