Started playing last night and still getting accustomed with everything, these types of games aren't exactly my strong suite. Enjoying it, but only level 7 or so.
I'm level25 now, playing a Warder (Shaman & Soldier dual spec). So far it has been smooth sailing, and I have been lucky, getting some nice blue weapon drops to keep my damage up.
I got to 24 last night, weirdly enjoying the game a lot more than right at the start, so much has changed and been polished. I kinda screwed my build up a tiny bit, going arcanist and occultist. But having lots of fun, I am more than willing to help anyone out, I realised last night tho if you had already done the area, it stays explored for me. The other big irritation was the weird lag spikes. I was connected to [MENTION=2399]czc[/MENTION] 's game, most of the time 90ms but it went up to 8000 at one point I even lost crusader completely, he just dissapeared from the map.... (and nope that wasnt when you went into the cave)
When we played with [MENTION=289]Jan[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2132]Xiphan[/MENTION] the night before we also had issues with lag spikes. The game doesn't seem to have very good netcode.
I might need to reroll. I keep playing melee classes and think it's time to try out some ranged/magic builds. The commando tank looks fun though
to reroll we need tos tart fresh :S
For why now?
It was the only thing that drove me mental. But I am just glad that I am not the only one who has to scour an area to make sure every nook and cranny has been explored.
Sadly I think I missed a book when I was avoiding one of those larger hordes.
If you where an idiot like me and put the points in mastery - you dont get those back, just the skills and devotion.
I also took advice from [MENTION=767]Wlad[/MENTION] and starting on veteran difficulty as well.
I actually have no idea what difficulty I am on, I know I am not doing Hard Core tho. Perma death is not for me
Yeah it's not hardcore, just adds a few more ads and elites afaik. But I like the small difficulty increase, Hiro and Wlad both said the normal mode was too easy and as a casual I tend to agree.

I have a feeling I didnt, dammit I will rather recreate then and do it on that.
You can just select veteran before loading your character in.
