I'm in act 2 and some of the mobs are proving pretty damn tough


Yeah, act 2 is pretty hard now, and act 3 was rough for me until I decided it was time to actually make my T2 warp blade. Doing a few Andy runs for enough crystals to make one or two key T1 uniques is probably an even better idea now than it was before.

edit: While I'm here, can I compliment the team on the new monsters? I love the variety, how most of the monsters are vanilla-like or make sense in the area, and especially that some of the unique bosses showcase some of the telegraphed skills from later on in the game so that new players can learn how to dodge things like Flamestrike or the Riftwalker's lightning bolts in advance.

Allright i'm halfway into A3 now and have to say you 100% nailed it on the monsters. It's even better theme wise than vanilla.

I see a lot of complaints so just want to add I'm enjoying the revamped holy caster paly. The dragon jaws spell doesn't seem to do as much damage as it should close to a wall or object but not a huge issue so far

And now my character file is corrupted or something (bad inventory data error). *sigh* I guess that's enough for today.
