Kurast 3KBA nets you around 2-5 sets per run, no mf gear. And it is not too hard for most chars.

Duncraig and Tran Athulua remains good spots if you can farm them effectively

I started my rat druid last night. So far he's been super fun.
I'm taking my time and soloing/farming my way up through act 2.

Already level 27 and I haven't died once which is shocking.
This build seems simple to use and is newbie friendly for me.

I find the trap rat form and quill storm to be tons of have.
And the elvensong gives me a chance against a big pack of mobs.
In fact, I got 5 base points in it already, to spam two elvensongs.

I also got the act 2 shapeshifter: The Werebear is a big help. He's a beast!

My question: If I fall in love with a particular build should I feel this excited?
I'm just worried that what I'm experiencing is too good to be true. LOL


I'm still going to see if I can tweak my Amazon and Barbarian to my liking.

That is the beauty of this mod. Tired of bashing on mobs with your barb ? Respec and make him summun minions to bash them for you. Zon firing arrows gets boring? Use her to throw javelins or cast blood magic. The only limits are your imagination here. Some builds work better than others, but controlling an assassin with a great sword is definitely fun ro watch

Does windform behave like the new whirlwind from cLoD? What I mean is: does the amount of times it hits rely on attack speed?

Also, I know that the whirlwind clones in this game, at least danse macabre or whatever it got renamed to, does trigger life on attack at least for the first attack in the spin animation. Does this also proc "on attack" spells from items?

Edit: What kind of poison damage does windform do in regards to "active" or "spell" poison damage and how does it interact with poison damage from items and snake stance?

I am only level 32 but one question I have is about the belts.
All I've seen so far are two potion slots on my belts. Am I unlucky?

On the original game it's easy to find a four potion slot belt quite fast.
On Median XL, when do I start coming across the higher slot belts?
Is that a high-level thing like set items? Nothing for a low level character?

It's not a bad thing I guess. Just takes me a little time to adjust.

You will only see more rows in belts when you go higher in item tiers. Tier 4-6. I believe tier 4 is when you see 3 rows and then t6 is when you see 4.

Thanks for that information about the rows on belt. and when I increase the tiers on the belt that's through the arcane crystals in cube? Also, are there guilds on here? Or do we just find friends in the public games and chat channel?

Yep, or you can find the later tiered belts in later difficulties.

Can I use a recipe in the cube to take out a socketed gem or jewel?
On the original game I think it was a hel rune and scroll of portal.
