Let's go.
17
00:00:30,185.639109662 --> 00:00:32,135.639109662
Gotta represent the Barb Nation today.
18
00:00:32,165.139109662 --> 00:00:32,645.139109662
Hell yeah.
19
00:00:33,65.639109662 --> 00:00:33,545.639109662
Yep.
20
00:00:33,545.639109662 --> 00:00:35,555.639109662
So what we're gonna be talking about today is.
21
00:00:36,680.639109662 --> 00:00:38,810.639109662
But we're also got a lot of other topics that I wanna cover.
22
00:00:38,810.639109662 --> 00:00:45,710.639109662
So it's going to be a around class to expansion pack to upcoming season.
23
00:00:45,710.639109662 --> 00:00:47,0.639109662
So I'm pretty excited about it.
24
00:00:47,405.139109662 --> 00:00:47,465.139109662
Yeah.
25
00:00:47,465.139109662 --> 00:00:48,155.139109662
I'm excited man.
26
00:00:48,155.139109662 --> 00:00:49,985.139109662
There's, there's a lot of stuff to, to cover for sure.
27
00:00:50,60.639109662 --> 00:00:51,350.639109662
there's a whole lot of stuff to cover.
28
00:00:51,440.639109662 --> 00:00:58,400.639109662
So for anybody that doesn't know you yet, Rob, which I'm sure that most people out there probably do, tell me a little bit about yourself.
29
00:00:59,30.639109662 --> 00:01:04,670.639109662
Where did you get into gaming? When did that career start, and what brought you from where you started to Diablo four.
30
00:01:05,135.139109662 --> 00:01:05,645.139109662
All right.
31
00:01:05,645.139109662 --> 00:01:05,825.139109662
Yeah.
32
00:01:05,825.139109662 --> 00:01:07,685.139109662
Hey everybody, it's Rob here.
33
00:01:07,685.139109662 --> 00:01:10,85.139109662
I like to play RPGs in particular.
34
00:01:10,145.139109662 --> 00:01:10,685.139109662
Diablo.
35
00:01:10,685.139109662 --> 00:01:13,655.139109662
I started like actually as a teenager, like just as a kid.
36
00:01:13,655.139109662 --> 00:01:15,545.139109662
I would say playing Diablo too, obviously.
37
00:01:15,545.139109662 --> 00:01:16,835.139109662
That was all like off street.
38
00:01:16,835.139109662 --> 00:01:18,575.139109662
I'm from Germany, so the internet wasn't the best.
39
00:01:18,575.139109662 --> 00:01:18,935.139109662
I didn't.
40
00:01:18,970.139109662 --> 00:01:20,110.139109662
Stream the Ablo two.
41
00:01:20,110.139109662 --> 00:01:21,100.139109662
It was like single player.
42
00:01:21,220.139109662 --> 00:01:26,740.139109662
And at some point I started D three, and at some point I got good internet and I started, uh, blasting in D three already.
43
00:01:26,740.139109662 --> 00:01:30,310.139109662
Uh, representing the Webber was my, my first class in D two as well.
44
00:01:30,310.139109662 --> 00:01:32,470.139109662
And then o obviously in in Diablo three as well.
45
00:01:32,740.139109662 --> 00:01:38,710.139109662
I was doing a lot of leaderboard stuff over there, like meta progression, meta stuff, and I was actually playing with the top players over there.
46
00:01:39,15.139109662 --> 00:01:41,295.13910966
For, for quite some time, for quite many years.
47
00:01:41,295.13910966 --> 00:01:44,85.13910966
And they were all streaming and I couldn't because my internet sucked.
48
00:01:44,355.13910966 --> 00:01:48,75.13910966
And then at some point I actually, uh, started, uh, streaming it as well.
49
00:01:48,345.13910966 --> 00:02:00,165.13910966
And then we have been, uh, basically on the journey of, of blast in Diablo and then, uh, playing Diablo for like early testing days and uh, getting into Diablo and yeah, getting the first 100 when the game launched.
50
00:02:00,165.13910966 --> 00:02:02,805.13910966
And we've been, uh, blasting hard ever since.
51
00:02:02,805.13910966 --> 00:02:04,935.13910966
And nowadays, obviously, like I like the above the most.
52
00:02:04,935.13910966 --> 00:02:06,435.13910966
It's my most favorite class.
53
00:02:06,435.13910966 --> 00:02:08,85.13910966
The coolest class, the best class.
54
00:02:08,390.13910966 --> 00:02:14,870.13910966
In the game, but there's also a lot of other cool classes such as the sorcerer or the spirit ball that I really enjoy playing.
55
00:02:16,220.63910966 --> 00:02:20,300.63910966
So what was it like to beta test game? Because I never actually got to do that.
56
00:02:20,300.63910966 --> 00:02:22,70.63910966
I didn't make it into the Diablo four beta.
57
00:02:22,70.63910966 --> 00:02:24,50.63910966
I kind of hopped in right after launch.
58
00:02:24,110.63910966 --> 00:02:34,790.13910966
What, what was it like to actually get in and and beta test, something like that? So I just really like giving all this, uh, feedback and getting in all this like knowledge, you know, to also like check what works best for me.
59
00:02:34,790.13910966 --> 00:02:36,830.13910966
This is always like, basically like Christmas for me.
60
00:02:36,980.13910966 --> 00:02:39,800.13910966
I always enjoy this time the most when everything feels new.
61
00:02:39,800.13910966 --> 00:02:44,60.13910966
You know, like when they drop like a huge patch, a huge expansion, or just like, you know, completely.
62
00:02:44,135.13910966 --> 00:02:50,735.13910966
Like new game after playing the album three with all its perks and problems, uh, for so many years, I just really enjoyed like something fresh.
63
00:02:50,735.13910966 --> 00:02:58,895.13910966
And obviously the graphics and the, the cinematics in the album four, like they, they, they just hooked me right away, the barb of the four weapons and the swapping and stuff.
64
00:02:59,105.13910966 --> 00:03:06,725.13910966
So I got hooked immediately and I, I mean, I really enjoy like testing all the stuff and then also giving like a compact feedback of stuff to maybe improve.
65
00:03:07,820.63910966 --> 00:03:08,960.63910966
That is awesome.
66
00:03:08,960.63910966 --> 00:03:13,100.63910966
I hopefully will get to be a part of that at some point in the future.
67
00:03:13,730.63910966 --> 00:03:16,280.63910966
So you talked a little about, about your journey getting to streaming.
68
00:03:16,280.63910966 --> 00:03:19,550.63910966
You had bad internet, you finally got that internet up and running.
69
00:03:19,550.63910966 --> 00:03:20,840.63910966
You were playing with a whole bunch of streamers.
70
00:03:20,840.63910966 --> 00:03:21,770.63910966
The high profile ones.
71
00:03:22,550.63910966 --> 00:03:26,420.63910966
can be pretty tough out there for streaming or content creation world.
72
00:03:26,510.63910966 --> 00:03:29,90.63910966
And as someone that has had a lot of success recently.
73
00:03:29,270.63910966 --> 00:03:41,930.63910966
So since you started actually having good internet, can you recall the moment that really kind of skyrocketed your success? Maybe give a little insight for some of the aspiring content creators out there on what to expect as they kinda get started.
74
00:03:42,265.13910966 --> 00:03:42,625.13910966
All right.
75
00:03:42,625.13910966 --> 00:03:43,75.13910966
Yeah, sure.
76
00:03:43,75.13910966 --> 00:03:52,615.13910966
So just for, for those of you who know, like in, in D three, like back in the days there was some cool names slotting around like Invis, Morron, avoid Za.
77
00:03:52,615.13910966 --> 00:03:53,215.13910966
There was like some.
78
00:03:53,270.13910966 --> 00:03:58,400.13910966
Pretty cool people that I was already playing with, uh, you know, before I, I could even start my streaming journey.
79
00:03:58,700.13910966 --> 00:04:03,80.63910966
And then, then the internet, uh, finally came to Germany properly Nice.
80
00:04:03,290.13910966 --> 00:04:04,460.13910966
uh, we could stream as well.
81
00:04:04,460.13910966 --> 00:04:10,550.13910966
And I instantly like, uh, started, uh, like, you know, basically like being on the, or trying to be on top of leaderboards there.
82
00:04:10,730.13910966 --> 00:04:11,840.13910966
And that worked really well.
83
00:04:11,960.13910966 --> 00:04:15,290.13910966
But obviously by that time, um, that was like, I think.
84
00:04:15,320.13910966 --> 00:04:19,430.13910966
2016 or something like, you know, four years or something after Diablo.
85
00:04:19,430.13910966 --> 00:04:27,440.13910966
And also the Ripoff Source expansion was already done, and the hype of Diablo three or the interest was not really at, at its peak anymore.
86
00:04:27,440.13910966 --> 00:04:33,530.13910966
Like the interest has, uh, dropped pretty significantly and everybody was already looking, you know, for the next Diablo, the next Diablo.
87
00:04:33,710.13910966 --> 00:04:37,250.13910966
And I basically like, kept streaming and I kept, uh, like doing my stuff.
88
00:04:37,520.13910966 --> 00:04:41,600.13910966
I had like, I don't know, like a couple hundred viewers at the time, uh, playing Diablo at, at launch.
89
00:04:41,600.13910966 --> 00:04:42,830.13910966
Obviously it was a bit more, but I didn't.
90
00:04:42,875.13910966 --> 00:04:45,35.13910966
You know, in the, in the droughts it was a bit less.
91
00:04:45,305.13910966 --> 00:04:51,395.13910966
Uh, but then when, uh, D four came, I already, uh, played, you know, like I said earlier, like all the betas, there was also the public betas.
92
00:04:51,545.13910966 --> 00:05:01,565.13910966
We were already doing like, some crazy stuff like doing like multiple of shava kils or making like half damage of our shava with like one upheaval with, with level 25 for berry and all this kind of stuff.
93
00:05:01,805.13910966 --> 00:05:07,625.13910966
So we were already like, you know, looking into this, uh, this kind of things and I prepared myself, um, really well with some friends.
94
00:05:08,525.13910966 --> 00:05:10,415.13910966
Um, so a big shout out to my group as well.
95
00:05:10,415.13910966 --> 00:05:13,655.13910966
Like, I, I, I am mainly, you know, I play online video games.
96
00:05:13,685.13910966 --> 00:05:16,475.13910966
I don't really prefer to play solo if I can.
97
00:05:16,520.63910966 --> 00:05:18,335.13910966
the I always wanna play with my friends.
98
00:05:18,335.13910966 --> 00:05:19,625.13910966
I always wanna play in a party.
99
00:05:19,745.13910966 --> 00:05:24,845.13910966
I really like the social aspect and especially Diablo four brings with the open world and like finding people.
100
00:05:24,845.13910966 --> 00:05:26,255.13910966
I also like trading a lot.
101
00:05:26,525.13910966 --> 00:05:29,405.13910966
Obviously trading has quite some problems, and again, we can maybe chat about it later.
102
00:05:29,765.13910966 --> 00:05:30,590.63910966
But, um, Yeah.
103
00:05:30,725.13910966 --> 00:05:36,185.13910966
so what basically happened was on the launch and where I think I really got on the radar, like for.
104
00:05:36,395.13910966 --> 00:05:46,355.13910966
You know, a lot of the Diablo four enjoyers, uh, was that, um, I was basically the first person before the game even fully released to reach level 100 and also to beat Uber lith.
105
00:05:46,685.13910966 --> 00:05:58,175.13910966
So, uh, basically like that was, uh, we had the early access, I think like the, on the second, I think it was, we just had the anniversary, so I think it was on the second, and then the game officially released like three and a half, four days later on the sixth.
106
00:05:58,760.13910966 --> 00:06:00,20.13910966
Of June, if I remember correctly.
107
00:06:00,260.13910966 --> 00:06:04,100.13910966
And so I was already level 100 after I think 55 hours of playing.
108
00:06:04,130.13910966 --> 00:06:06,920.13910966
So that was before the game even released for like, you know, most people.
109
00:06:07,595.13910966 --> 00:06:07,835.13910966
Eh.
110
00:06:08,165.63910966 --> 00:06:11,525.13910966
55 hours of playing the level Oh compared to now? It, it was crazy.
111
00:06:11,525.13910966 --> 00:06:14,705.13910966
I mean, we had a, we had a wild strategy that we came up with in the betas.
112
00:06:14,705.13910966 --> 00:06:23,285.13910966
Obviously, you know, you have some advantage, like if you played the, the betas and the public, uh, betas and stuff like that, that's undeniable, right? Like, you al this is in every game.
113
00:06:23,285.13910966 --> 00:06:26,255.13910966
You just have, uh, some inherent like knowledge advantage.
114
00:06:26,255.13910966 --> 00:06:30,755.13910966
But I, I did my best, like, I did many videos, you know, sharing my experience there and like.
115
00:06:31,150.13910966 --> 00:06:37,540.13910966
You know, explaining people of, of how to level up, how to be efficient, how to play the best build back in the days was the whirlwind, Bob.
116
00:06:37,870.13910966 --> 00:06:40,870.13910966
So, uh, I think that was really what, what got me on the radar.
117
00:06:40,870.13910966 --> 00:06:51,430.13910966
Like we got that, um, I basically streamed for 30 hours, then I went to sleep for like, I think I only slept like four hours, and then I streamed for another 30 hours, and then at hour 55 of playing.
118
00:06:51,915.13910966 --> 00:06:56,840.13910966
I, I, I reached the, I reached the max level, and then I still kept streaming because there was like some crazy hype.
119
00:06:56,930.13910966 --> 00:06:59,570.13910966
I think we had like 20,000 people or something watching on Twitch.
120
00:06:59,570.13910966 --> 00:07:02,690.13910966
And, uh, there was like a, an entire like, uh, unofficial.
121
00:07:02,720.13910966 --> 00:07:06,140.13910966
Unofficial, obviously there was no leader, but there was unofficial race going on.
122
00:07:06,140.13910966 --> 00:07:06,170.13910966
I.
123
00:07:06,965.13910966 --> 00:07:11,495.13910966
And we were basically just blasting there, having some interviews with the, with the racers, with other people.
124
00:07:11,975.13910966 --> 00:07:17,675.13910966
And, um, yeah, ever since, man, I, I just, uh, you know, make a lot of videos explaining how I do stuff.
125
00:07:17,675.13910966 --> 00:07:23,915.13910966
And I always like to do the, the meta stuff, the crazy stuff, the one shots, the bar billions, the trillions, you know, this kind of stuff.
126
00:07:24,500.63910966 --> 00:07:24,920.63910966
Yep.
127
00:07:25,820.63910966 --> 00:07:35,205.63910966
So based on your experience, do you think that without having YouTube or outside platforms other than Twitch, do you think that it is.
128
00:07:36,5.63910966 --> 00:07:43,535.63910966
Possible to make it big, or do you think that YouTube really plays a huge part of that? I mean, you can see the little YouTube award in the background here for you.
129
00:07:44,450.13910966 --> 00:07:44,900.13910966
There it is.
130
00:07:44,900.13910966 --> 00:07:45,80.13910966
Yeah.
131
00:07:45,230.13910966 --> 00:07:46,370.13910966
Um, so yeah, great question.
132
00:07:46,370.13910966 --> 00:07:49,610.13910966
Um, so overall, I think it's very hard to get discovered on Twitch.
133
00:07:49,640.13910966 --> 00:07:51,80.13910966
I think it's a huge problem on the platform.
134
00:07:51,80.13910966 --> 00:07:52,640.13910966
I hope they address it in some way.
135
00:07:52,820.13910966 --> 00:07:59,870.13910966
It's, it's way easier, you know, to get picked up by the algorithm on, uh, stuff like, uh, TikTok or YouTube and, and these kind of things.
136
00:08:00,170.13910966 --> 00:08:04,400.13910966
You can like, pretty much go viral, especially if you do like, you know, crazy stuff.
137
00:08:04,400.13910966 --> 00:08:08,210.13910966
Like obviously you go viral in a niche that is a RPG players or the ABO players.
138
00:08:08,720.13910966 --> 00:08:13,220.13910966
Um, so you can't expect to get like tens of million views, but maybe you can get like a hundred thousand or something.
139
00:08:13,220.13910966 --> 00:08:13,460.13910966
Right.
140
00:08:13,640.13910966 --> 00:08:18,350.13910966
And that's already like going pretty viral for this, you know, Diablo, A IPG community.
141
00:08:18,650.13910966 --> 00:08:24,260.13910966
Um, so I think best platforms and what I would also suggest for other people that start cont ation, you cannot.
142
00:08:24,725.13910966 --> 00:08:25,745.13910966
Only start on Twitch.
143
00:08:25,745.13910966 --> 00:08:26,735.13910966
I don't think it's working.
144
00:08:27,65.13910966 --> 00:08:30,335.13910966
Um, the thing for me is I was already known before I started streaming.
145
00:08:30,335.13910966 --> 00:08:34,265.13910966
Like I explained earlier, like I had, um, you know, all these in Diablo, they had an Indian leaderboard.
146
00:08:34,265.13910966 --> 00:08:35,615.13910966
It's coming to Diablo for soon.
147
00:08:35,615.13910966 --> 00:08:36,695.13910966
So that's a great opportunity.
148
00:08:36,965.13910966 --> 00:08:41,705.13910966
But in D three, in D three, we had this from the, not on the start, but since a very long time.
149
00:08:41,975.13910966 --> 00:08:46,715.13910966
And, uh, people already like off the scene, already kind of knew me, you know, from the leaderboards.
150
00:08:46,835.13910966 --> 00:08:53,195.13910966
I was all like consistently, like in the, in the top ranks there in solo two or three and four player, uh, with my, with my clan.
151
00:08:53,505.13910966 --> 00:08:55,935.13910966
Back in the days and um, I think that really helped.
152
00:08:55,935.13910966 --> 00:09:02,625.13910966
So my first stream on Twitch right away, like we had like, I think like 110 view views or something, uh, because we were just doing lead board pushing.
153
00:09:02,865.13910966 --> 00:09:08,895.13910966
So I think there's a big opportunity coming up depending on of course, how the ABLO four is implementing those lead boards.
154
00:09:09,15.13910966 --> 00:09:16,665.13910966
Like my, I ideal wish would be, obviously we have some new end game that is not the pit because PIT has many problems and we are just gonna have some like crazy cool end game.
155
00:09:17,45.13910966 --> 00:09:18,935.13910966
Uh, and we are gonna have a leaderboard for this in game.
156
00:09:18,935.13910966 --> 00:09:23,645.13910966
And then maybe there's an icon where they can click and see the clear, or at least the gear and stuff like that.
157
00:09:23,645.13910966 --> 00:09:26,735.13910966
So that, that would be, that would be really cool and a huge opportunity.
158
00:09:26,825.13910966 --> 00:09:33,875.13910966
But again, to the question, um, yeah, I think, um, doing multiple platforms is, is key these days, especially to get, uh, discovered.
159
00:09:34,145.13910966 --> 00:09:35,195.13910966
You need to do something crazy.
160
00:09:35,195.13910966 --> 00:09:38,900.63910966
You need to like stick out of the crowd, you know? Yeah.
161
00:09:39,110.63910966 --> 00:09:39,770.63910966
Yeah, it's true.
162
00:09:39,830.63910966 --> 00:09:41,510.63910966
And it doesn't have to be anything super flashy.
163
00:09:41,510.63910966 --> 00:09:50,720.13910966
Just whatever your niche is, whatever you're good at, Uh, my flashy things still work very well, but yeah, it doesn't have to, but you know, you're gonna have some creative ideas.
164
00:09:50,720.13910966 --> 00:09:52,580.13910966
You gotta do some stuff that other people don't do.
165
00:09:53,240.63910966 --> 00:09:53,690.63910966
I agree.
166
00:09:53,690.63910966 --> 00:09:53,930.63910966
Yep.
167
00:09:53,930.63910966 --> 00:09:53,990.63910966
I.
168
00:09:54,622.91183693 --> 00:09:59,902.91183693
Most people know you from the time that you spent on the barbarian, and we talked a little bit about that.
169
00:09:59,902.91183693 --> 00:10:03,382.91183693
That was what you first got started when you first started in Diablo two.
170
00:10:03,382.91183693 --> 00:10:08,842.91183693
What drew you to the barbarian class? And then what has been the progressions, uh, going into Diablo? Four.
171
00:10:09,137.41183693 --> 00:10:19,577.41183693
I mean, I just like to be in the monster's face, you know, like I said earlier, like Diablo two was my first game and Arian was actually, you could arguably say the weakest class in Diablo two.
172
00:10:19,847.41183693 --> 00:10:21,647.41183693
But I didn't really care so much at the beginning.
173
00:10:21,647.41183693 --> 00:10:28,157.41183693
It was just like the place that, you know, like having these mighty shouts and having the weapons and obviously having war wind also in Diablo two.
174
00:10:28,397.41183693 --> 00:10:29,567.41183693
It was great man.
175
00:10:29,567.41183693 --> 00:10:34,127.41183693
And uh, I remember that the Berian versus early Durel Act two fight, like.
176
00:10:34,292.41183693 --> 00:10:38,222.41183693
It was kind of tough, you know, it was kind of challenge, but I enjoyed it so much, man.
177
00:10:38,312.41183693 --> 00:10:42,2.41183693
Like when I first played the game, like, I dunno, I was like 13 or 12 or something.
178
00:10:42,7.41183693 --> 00:10:43,772.41183693
I, I don't even remember, like a teenager.
179
00:10:43,922.41183693 --> 00:10:45,902.41183693
And, uh, I clicked everything.
180
00:10:45,902.41183693 --> 00:10:53,822.41183693
I, uh, picked up every item I explored, every teeny tiny part of the diabo, two maps, everything dude and I played all the way until hell.
181
00:10:53,822.41183693 --> 00:10:55,712.41183693
And it, it took forever, but it was.
182
00:10:56,92.41183693 --> 00:10:56,752.41183693
Fun, man.
183
00:10:56,752.41183693 --> 00:11:04,372.41183693
It was like one of the best experience in like, you know, playing Diablo in my life because I also had my, my cousin and my neighbor and we had like one pc.
184
00:11:04,672.41183693 --> 00:11:07,552.41183693
It was at my neighbor's place and we always went there to play the game.
185
00:11:08,32.41183693 --> 00:11:09,22.41183693
It was so good too.
186
00:11:09,292.41183693 --> 00:11:13,762.41183693
And then like one guy would play and the other two would just sit there and watch and give tips and stuff.
187
00:11:13,792.41183693 --> 00:11:14,692.41183693
It was great, man.
188
00:11:15,337.91183693 --> 00:11:16,207.91183693
Uh, just do this.
189
00:11:16,207.91183693 --> 00:11:16,657.91183693
Do this.
190
00:11:16,657.91183693 --> 00:11:16,927.91183693
Yep.
191
00:11:17,122.41183693 --> 00:11:17,542.41183693
Yep.
192
00:11:17,587.91183693 --> 00:11:19,357.91183693
we, so a little bit about me.
193
00:11:19,357.91183693 --> 00:11:23,227.91183693
I actually had Younger brothers growing up.
194
00:11:24,487.91183693 --> 00:11:25,357.41183693
Six man.
195
00:11:25,357.41183693 --> 00:11:26,377.41183693
That's crazy dude.
196
00:11:26,377.41183693 --> 00:11:27,762.41183693
That's a lot of competition for stuff.
197
00:11:28,357.91183693 --> 00:11:28,807.91183693
a lot.
198
00:11:29,257.91183693 --> 00:11:32,317.91183693
We had one tv, one gaming console.
199
00:11:32,767.91183693 --> 00:11:35,437.91183693
We got 30 minutes each to play and that was it.
200
00:11:35,792.41183693 --> 00:11:36,322.41183693
Hell yeah.
201
00:11:36,937.91183693 --> 00:11:42,727.41183693
we, one person playing and then six other people around just glued to the Yes.
202
00:11:43,357.91183693 --> 00:11:43,897.91183693
Yep.
203
00:11:43,897.91183693 --> 00:11:45,7.41183693
So I Oh, those were the days.
204
00:11:45,7.41183693 --> 00:11:49,597.41183693
I mean, that's basically like, you kind of like already streaming your gameplay, right? That's like the early beginnings.
205
00:11:49,597.41183693 --> 00:11:51,427.41183693
Like you are playing people watching you.
206
00:11:52,12.91183693 --> 00:11:52,552.91183693
It was.
207
00:11:52,642.91183693 --> 00:11:54,82.91183693
Yep, exactly like that.
208
00:11:54,412.91183693 --> 00:11:55,402.91183693
Uh, that's awesome.
209
00:11:55,972.91183693 --> 00:12:01,912.91183693
So with the barbarian being your main class, we've definitely seen you play a lot of other classes.
210
00:12:02,932.91183693 --> 00:12:11,47.41183693
What is your favorite type of build to play when you're playing a, when you're looking for to a build to get onto any class? So I really like speed.
211
00:12:11,287.41183693 --> 00:12:12,487.41183693
I really like damage.
212
00:12:12,487.41183693 --> 00:12:14,857.41183693
I don't really care much about toughness, vulnerability.
213
00:12:15,72.41183693 --> 00:12:20,232.41183693
That's not really like my main concern, I think in a R pgs, like all you really need is damage and mobility.
214
00:12:20,412.41183693 --> 00:12:30,672.41183693
So what I really like the most in terms of builds is builds like the whirlwind bulb where you can move while you deal, like extreme amount of damage, have some good a OE and stuff like that.
215
00:12:30,672.41183693 --> 00:12:38,322.41183693
And obviously like the, the first great build that had, this was the build I played like basically in the beta and then into the life game was the war involve.
216
00:12:38,322.41183693 --> 00:12:38,892.41183693
And it was just.
217
00:12:39,472.41183693 --> 00:12:47,122.41183693
Like, if you remember the early, um, Gores devastating grass, like these, uh, glass that create this explosion that they were so good back in the days.
218
00:12:47,122.41183693 --> 00:12:51,952.41183693
You had like the full player agency, the full control over, like when to explode.
219
00:12:51,952.41183693 --> 00:12:58,342.41183693
You could stack it up for, I don't know, 10 minutes if you'd want, and then do a trillion damage when you explode, right? I mean, they took this all away.
220
00:12:58,372.41183693 --> 00:13:08,422.41183693
I, I hated that part that they took it away, but it was so good on launch, man, that was still the best version of wo B to come out and I pray ever since that at some point it's gonna come back, man.
221
00:13:09,142.91183693 --> 00:13:10,12.91183693
I hope so.
222
00:13:10,42.91183693 --> 00:13:10,402.91183693
I hope so.
223
00:13:10,432.91183693 --> 00:13:11,632.91183693
I love playing whirlwind, Barb.
224
00:13:12,232.91183693 --> 00:13:12,802.91183693
really do.
225
00:13:12,952.91183693 --> 00:13:15,142.91183693
Just like zooming around, just constantly spinning.
226
00:13:15,142.91183693 --> 00:13:18,627.91183693
It is just, I, I don't know why it is so satisfying.
227
00:13:18,682.41183693 --> 00:13:32,392.41183693
Yeah, I mean, it's still fun, but it's not as cool anymore because, you know, basically all your damage is coming not from yourself, from your physical attack, but it's coming from your whirlwinds, from, from your tornadoes, from your earthquakes or from, from a few, from your pets.
228
00:13:32,632.41183693 --> 00:13:37,867.91183693
But I really liked when, when it launched that you yourself did the demos, you know? Yep.
229
00:13:38,332.41183693 --> 00:13:40,852.41183693
And, uh, I really hope that this is gonna change at some point.
230
00:13:40,852.41183693 --> 00:13:45,52.41183693
I give this feedback to ARD every chance I get, man, please make whirlwind Bob.
231
00:13:45,52.41183693 --> 00:13:45,412.41183693
Great.
232
00:13:45,412.41183693 --> 00:13:46,702.41183693
Again, direct damage.
233
00:13:46,852.41183693 --> 00:13:53,182.41183693
They acknowledged it in one of the recent campfire chats where they really said they want the bob, you know, to do physical damage with their attacks.
234
00:13:53,182.41183693 --> 00:14:01,192.41183693
We wanna be that like mighty warrior that actually like, you know, provides meaningful attacks like the big hold smashes, the big whirlwinds.
235
00:14:01,192.41183693 --> 00:14:05,782.41183693
This kind of stuff is, I feel what the majority and myself as well of the community wants.
236
00:14:07,57.91183693 --> 00:14:08,77.91183693
Yeah, I agree.
237
00:14:08,257.91183693 --> 00:14:15,277.41183693
This season actually, I put together a Hoda build, just pure Hoda, just built on overpower No earthquakes.
238
00:14:15,727.91183693 --> 00:14:16,687.91183693
no earthquakes.
239
00:14:16,987.91183693 --> 00:14:20,317.91183693
We got it up to 400 billion per Hoda.
240
00:14:20,317.91183693 --> 00:14:20,347.91183693
I.
241
00:14:21,152.41183693 --> 00:14:21,892.41183693
That's a lot.
242
00:14:22,157.91183693 --> 00:14:26,152.91183693
not, it's, it's not, it's not like trillions of damage like some of the top builds are doing.
243
00:14:26,212.91183693 --> 00:14:29,92.91183693
But there was a small buff Toyota.
244
00:14:29,92.91183693 --> 00:14:39,502.41183693
I don't know what it's gonna feel like with the, what they're gonna settle on for changes to overpower, but it was really fun to just walk into the dungeon and smash things with a hammer of agents, Barb, Hell yeah.
245
00:14:39,532.91183693 --> 00:14:42,382.41183693
that felt, felt real I mean, season two was great in that regard.
246
00:14:42,382.41183693 --> 00:14:47,602.41183693
Like the whirlwind plus hammer combination, man, that was like a 10 out of 10 dude.
247
00:14:47,842.91183693 --> 00:14:49,102.91183693
It was 100%.
248
00:14:50,272.91183693 --> 00:14:54,982.91183693
So you have tested hundreds, if not thousands of bills.
249
00:14:55,762.91183693 --> 00:15:02,302.91183693
Do you think that you can narrow it down to your top favorite bills of all time? Maybe top one, top three.
250
00:15:03,247.41183693 --> 00:15:04,597.41183693
I mean, we already talked about that.
251
00:15:04,597.41183693 --> 00:15:07,417.41183693
Basically like the woven Bob is hashtag one.
252
00:15:07,627.91183693 --> 00:15:07,917.91183693
Okay.
253
00:15:08,137.41183693 --> 00:15:15,847.41183693
two I would probably give to hold up Bob, like I said, and then obviously combining number one, wen and number two holder into one in season two.
254
00:15:16,552.41183693 --> 00:15:18,82.41183693
That felt great.
255
00:15:18,142.41183693 --> 00:15:19,732.41183693
I also really like the Bash bob.
256
00:15:19,972.41183693 --> 00:15:29,32.41183693
Like Bash Bob is just so simple, you know, you just go there and you basically start bashing, you smash things and then there's, there's big numbers and it's just a ton of fun.
257
00:15:29,152.41183693 --> 00:15:32,992.41183693
And also what's really cool right now, I hope they buffet a lot, is the lunging strike.
258
00:15:32,992.41183693 --> 00:15:37,762.41183693
Like lunging strike is like, you know, dash to the monster kind of play style and then also do a oe.
259
00:15:38,617.41183693 --> 00:15:43,327.41183693
That's really cool with like crazy attack speed and I really hope that they, I don't know, like five exit or something.
260
00:15:43,327.41183693 --> 00:15:47,107.41183693
So it's gonna be a viable build and competing with the, with the pet quakes.
261
00:15:47,197.41183693 --> 00:15:49,237.41183693
That's, uh, like launching Strike is on a telephone.
262
00:15:49,837.91183693 --> 00:15:55,87.41183693
It was a super fun, and if you increase the range on it, Yeah, the mobility range.
263
00:15:55,507.91183693 --> 00:15:56,17.91183693
Yeah.
264
00:15:56,17.91183693 --> 00:15:57,67.91183693
It's super fun.
265
00:15:57,307.91183693 --> 00:16:02,317.91183693
So hopefully something like that, something that surprised me this season was actually the double swing build.
266
00:16:03,757.41183693 --> 00:16:08,887.41183693
Yeah, double swing is okay, but for me, I really like, you know, the one big hit stuff.
267
00:16:08,887.41183693 --> 00:16:09,307.41183693
I like it.
268
00:16:09,307.41183693 --> 00:16:10,297.41183693
I prefer it a bit more.
269
00:16:10,297.41183693 --> 00:16:15,547.41183693
This is the per, uh, personal choice, but, uh, for me it's like rent and uh, and double swing.
270
00:16:15,547.41183693 --> 00:16:20,947.41183693
They're okay, like they're also pretty fast paced, but I really like, you know, the big two end weapon attacks better.
271
00:16:21,37.91183693 --> 00:16:21,247.91183693
too.
272
00:16:21,577.91183693 --> 00:16:21,847.91183693
Yeah.
273
00:16:22,57.91183693 --> 00:16:22,327.91183693
Yeah.
274
00:16:22,807.91183693 --> 00:16:33,667.41183693
Okay, so we know what your favorite build is, and I have a feeling that I know what your favorite season's gonna be, but out of all of the seasons, India, apple four has been your favorite? I mean, there's basically two containers.
275
00:16:33,667.41183693 --> 00:16:37,117.41183693
I think the top two best seasons was obviously season two.
276
00:16:37,357.41183693 --> 00:16:45,277.4118369
We had the upper 12 zero, which really surprised us because, you know, they recently, they stopped doing like mid-season patches, which I really dislike.
277
00:16:45,277.4118369 --> 00:16:49,267.4118369
I was always like looking forward to, you know, 'cause 'cause right now, basically we're in the same situation right now.
278
00:16:49,507.4118369 --> 00:16:52,27.4118369
Uh, the ablo until the season nine stars next month or something.
279
00:16:52,27.4118369 --> 00:16:52,837.4118369
It's like in kind of like a.
280
00:16:53,157.4118369 --> 00:17:06,57.4118369
Drought phase, like nothing really much is going on and I would've really like, loved to see more mid-season patches and they really surprised us in season two, having this like big mid-season patch, new end game about 12 year, you know, like crazy stuff was going on.
281
00:17:06,237.4118369 --> 00:17:12,207.4118369
We also had a very cool, uh, seasonal theme that I really enjoyed and it was just, uh, one of the best seasons.
282
00:17:12,477.4118369 --> 00:17:14,277.4118369
And then my second, uh.
283
00:17:14,542.4118369 --> 00:17:15,652.4118369
I'm not sure which one's better.
284
00:17:15,652.4118369 --> 00:17:22,402.4118369
And my second one is a season four where they completely like redid the itemization and that's also where they introduced the Bash bob.
285
00:17:22,432.4118369 --> 00:17:24,952.4118369
Right? So that was, uh, a ton of fun.
286
00:17:24,952.4118369 --> 00:17:29,512.4118369
So I would rank those season two and season four as as my top seasons, basically all time favorites.
287
00:17:29,752.4118369 --> 00:17:32,32.4118369
Probably season two has a slight edge the.
288
00:17:32,207.4118369 --> 00:17:48,347.4118369
The blood tide, uh, was amazing and the, the entire vibes were so good because a OZ actually provided some very, very challenging end game, which, uh, was also rewarding with the tears of blood, and also gave you an extra progression system to do something where.
289
00:17:49,217.4118369 --> 00:17:50,567.4118369
The pitch just feels worse to me.
290
00:17:50,567.4118369 --> 00:17:50,897.4118369
I don't know.
291
00:17:50,927.4118369 --> 00:17:52,697.4118369
It's just like I really liked ABA 12 z.
292
00:17:52,697.4118369 --> 00:17:58,127.4118369
I know like a lot of people like, said that it was too hard, it was too punishing, like one death and you're out and stuff.
293
00:17:58,487.4118369 --> 00:18:04,67.4118369
But I think it was really cool and uh, it was a very welcome change to the, uh, end, end that we have right now.
294
00:18:04,837.9118369 --> 00:18:06,157.9118369
Yeah, I agree.
295
00:18:06,157.9118369 --> 00:18:07,927.9118369
Actually, A OZ was super fun for me.
296
00:18:08,347.9118369 --> 00:18:11,467.9118369
The addition of leveling up your glyphs, there they were.
297
00:18:11,467.9118369 --> 00:18:19,927.9118369
Yes, it was very punishing if you died, but the amount of XP that you got for your glyphs, you could level up a glyph from one to max in one Clear.
298
00:18:20,182.4118369 --> 00:18:20,707.4118369
Hell yeah.
299
00:18:20,932.9118369 --> 00:18:30,142.9118369
if you were successful in your run, you didn't feel like, like that last run where you died was wasted, you actually felt rewarded, which was was very, very cool.
300
00:18:30,622.4118369 --> 00:18:31,372.4118369
Great times.
301
00:18:32,242.9118369 --> 00:18:37,12.9118369
So when I started Diablo four barbarian for me, was an obvious choice.
302
00:18:37,12.9118369 --> 00:18:38,302.9118369
I've been playing since Diablo two.
303
00:18:38,332.9118369 --> 00:18:39,172.9118369
Just, just like you.
304
00:18:39,172.9118369 --> 00:18:40,312.9118369
We went barbarian.
305
00:18:41,572.9118369 --> 00:18:43,372.4118369
Now, It is the way.
306
00:18:43,897.9118369 --> 00:18:50,287.9118369
New players, something that wanted to hop onto Barbarian, give them three tips that are gonna make their journey into the barbarians a lot easier.
307
00:18:50,287.9118369 --> 00:18:52,342.4118369
What would those tips be? Okay.
308
00:18:52,852.4118369 --> 00:18:54,832.4118369
I always get, uh, like vi variant.
309
00:18:55,192.4118369 --> 00:18:56,717.4118369
I feel like always gets paid for that, but.
310
00:18:57,622.4118369 --> 00:18:58,582.4118369
Triple shout, man.
311
00:18:58,732.4118369 --> 00:18:59,847.4118369
Always go triple shout.
312
00:18:59,962.4118369 --> 00:19:02,692.4118369
I, I think it's like basically every build is just better with triple shout.
313
00:19:02,692.4118369 --> 00:19:14,512.4118369
Especially, you know, like when you're like in the mid game or something and you get like the bolt chief, or you get at least like one row, like use your shouts, constantly use them smart and uh, they're gonna fix so many of your problems.
314
00:19:14,512.4118369 --> 00:19:18,472.4118369
And, uh, I always walk around like, every good puppet needs to have triple shot.
315
00:19:18,472.4118369 --> 00:19:25,732.4118369
I mean, you know, maybe this is something for the deaths to solve, but like right now, I feel like at least 95, if not 99% of all the.
316
00:19:26,152.4118369 --> 00:19:32,242.4118369
You know, Gigi Bar builds, like they just have triple shouts, man, and I really like the shouts, like, you know, mighty war cry.
317
00:19:32,542.4118369 --> 00:19:33,352.4118369
So that's number one.
318
00:19:33,352.4118369 --> 00:19:34,707.9118369
Probably Okay.
319
00:19:35,242.4118369 --> 00:19:39,82.4118369
two would be focus on fur generation early on.
320
00:19:39,82.4118369 --> 00:19:41,212.4118369
I see like a lot of, especially new players, I.
321
00:19:41,527.4118369 --> 00:19:46,987.4118369
They always ask me like, Rob, how you get the fury? Like, I, I see you play, but I can't get the fury.
322
00:19:47,77.4118369 --> 00:20:01,867.4118369
It was like, uh, for example, like in the recent like whirlwind pet quake built, I got this question so many times, like, how do you even get the fur fury, uh, the resources to even start spinning, right? So I think for newer players, like focusing on something like, uh, fury, on kill on the weapon, or getting some, you know, some basic skills.
323
00:20:01,867.4118369 --> 00:20:07,837.4118369
Now with the new lunging strike, uh, it's basically very important to make the barbarian angry and to, to get some fury.
324
00:20:08,47.4118369 --> 00:20:09,277.4118369
But you can also just get hit.
325
00:20:09,482.4118369 --> 00:20:11,102.4118369
You know, like, you need fury, just get hit.
326
00:20:11,462.4118369 --> 00:20:12,392.4118369
It's a cool mechanic.
327
00:20:12,842.4118369 --> 00:20:13,912.9118369
But, uh, yeah, I, true.
328
00:20:14,252.4118369 --> 00:20:17,612.4118369
I feel like, I feel like early on a lot of people, uh, like struggle with that.
329
00:20:17,612.4118369 --> 00:20:24,542.4118369
So focus on fuel generation because early on this is just where your damage is coming from basically before you have like all the crazy earthquake multipliers.
330
00:20:25,22.4118369 --> 00:20:27,392.4118369
And, um, yeah, I think the third one would be.
331
00:20:27,772.4118369 --> 00:20:35,902.4118369
Uh, like look into mobility or look into ways of dealing damage while you move, for example, leaving an earthquake or using whirlwind or something.
332
00:20:36,172.4118369 --> 00:20:39,772.4118369
'cause then you can basically make use of all this synergy where you have your shouts.
333
00:20:39,772.4118369 --> 00:20:48,382.4118369
They give you unstoppable, they give you berser, they give you a ton of movements, speed with rally while you're gonna be running really fast because you don't really have like a teleport or something unless you're playing London strike.
334
00:20:48,592.4118369 --> 00:20:51,892.4118369
But, uh, you really wanna be fast and deal the damage while you're moving.
335
00:20:51,892.4118369 --> 00:20:54,142.4118369
That's how you're efficient And focus on DPS basically.
336
00:20:55,142.9118369 --> 00:20:56,162.9118369
Okay, that sounds good.
337
00:20:56,522.9118369 --> 00:20:56,732.9118369
Yeah.
338
00:20:56,732.9118369 --> 00:21:03,152.9118369
The seminar builds were very, very on fury generation if you didn't know what you were doing.
339
00:21:03,152.9118369 --> 00:21:09,242.9118369
So Yeah, great tip from competing at the highest levels, which we just talked about.
340
00:21:09,242.9118369 --> 00:21:11,372.9118369
A OZ to the gauntlet pushes.
341
00:21:11,372.9118369 --> 00:21:14,942.9118369
I remember your very first run of the gauntlet, you topped the leaderboards.
342
00:21:14,942.9118369 --> 00:21:15,512.9118369
I saw that.
343
00:21:16,267.4118369 --> 00:21:19,872.4118369
it was actually crazy, like just a little on that, like when we, uh, started a OZ.
344
00:21:20,437.4118369 --> 00:21:28,777.4118369
I remember like people were always like preparing and a lot of content creators were doing the build, like a OZ Ready, you know, this and that and this class and this build and stuff.
345
00:21:29,47.4118369 --> 00:21:36,277.4118369
And I remember when it launched, like, uh, we, I was playing like any immortal version, like back in the days with the melted out of Slic, actually like a very.
346
00:21:36,882.4118369 --> 00:21:46,422.4118369
Let's say, um, beginner, obviously it was not optimized like if you compare to the last place, but it was a very beginner friendly build because we were just basically in au and we were just using Hoda and a bunch of fury.
347
00:21:46,812.4118369 --> 00:21:55,632.4118369
And uh, I remember, I think we went like all the way to like a OZ 19 on the first days while most other builds and classes were like struggling clearing nine or something.
348
00:21:55,932.4118369 --> 00:21:57,72.4118369
It was actually crazy.
349
00:21:57,402.4118369 --> 00:22:01,2.4118369
But, uh, Bob was, uh, was really cool back in the days and I really enjoyed it.
350
00:22:01,2.4118369 --> 00:22:02,112.4118369
And uh, and I think, um.
351
00:22:02,767.4118369 --> 00:22:07,627.4118369
There was also so many people like joining the Bob Nation because Bob was so amazing in a OZ back in the day.
352
00:22:07,627.4118369 --> 00:22:08,212.4118369
It was cool.
353
00:22:08,497.9118369 --> 00:22:09,607.9118369
it really was.
354
00:22:10,27.9118369 --> 00:22:17,677.9118369
It was The Immortal bar Makes sense because fighting the three hell born that spawned were, they were so strong.
355
00:22:17,802.4118369 --> 00:22:18,682.4118369
Ultimate challenge, man.
356
00:22:19,192.9118369 --> 00:22:19,722.4118369
So I.
357
00:22:19,972.9118369 --> 00:22:20,932.9118369
this start in that fight.
358
00:22:20,932.9118369 --> 00:22:25,942.4118369
You had this adrenaline rush right before it Yeah, but that was so much better than the current pit bosses.
359
00:22:25,942.4118369 --> 00:22:30,52.4118369
Like having like one boss there being like a damaged sponge and you basically can't die.
360
00:22:30,52.4118369 --> 00:22:32,692.4118369
And he can't die and no one dies and the fight takes 10 minutes.
361
00:22:32,842.4118369 --> 00:22:33,562.4118369
It's just stupid.
362
00:22:33,562.4118369 --> 00:22:33,682.4118369
Man.
363
00:22:33,682.4118369 --> 00:22:34,282.4118369
This is boring.
364
00:22:34,582.4118369 --> 00:22:38,332.4118369
Those blood seekers, man, they were, Oh, they were crazy dude.
365
00:22:38,437.9118369 --> 00:22:39,517.9118369
They were insane.
366
00:22:39,847.9118369 --> 00:22:41,407.9118369
Yeah, they were really crazy.
367
00:22:41,767.9118369 --> 00:22:49,987.4118369
That season with A OZI was actually playing just a regular Hoda Barb, not whirlwind, and that, that was me as well in the start.
368
00:22:49,987.4118369 --> 00:22:54,787.4118369
I think everybody, like nobody even knew about this whirlwind hold up, up before it got popular, like in China or something.
369
00:22:55,402.9118369 --> 00:22:57,202.9118369
Yeah, I think that's where, where, where it came from.
370
00:22:57,202.9118369 --> 00:23:06,142.9118369
But I was actually like, I was like I, I don't know how I feel about it, because you would have to like wait for your cool downs to come up, and then you have to go back in and fight, and you wait for your cool downs to go back in and fight, because I wasn't running the Immortal bar.
371
00:23:06,802.9118369 --> 00:23:10,252.9118369
When Whirlwind Hammer of the Ancients came out, it changed everything.
372
00:23:11,182.9118369 --> 00:23:11,587.4118369
I It.
373
00:23:11,632.9118369 --> 00:23:15,967.4118369
this is the most fun I have ever And there were also so many tricks to it.
374
00:23:15,967.4118369 --> 00:23:23,107.4118369
You know, like how you do this rotation, like how smooth can you make it with like four smooth animation, cancel and man, people were cooking on this.
375
00:23:23,107.4118369 --> 00:23:24,157.4118369
It was great times.
376
00:23:24,187.9118369 --> 00:23:28,537.4118369
it was so there was a huge incentive to also cook and you know, develop the meta.
377
00:23:29,377.9118369 --> 00:23:29,767.9118369
Yeah.
378
00:23:29,797.4118369 --> 00:23:37,57.4118369
There was like something new, basically like every day, man, it's like when the vessel faded came out, it was like this new stuff, new stuff, new stuff every day or new meta.
379
00:23:37,777.9118369 --> 00:23:38,77.9118369
Yeah.
380
00:23:38,242.4118369 --> 00:23:40,732.4118369
I miss that man, that, that's always the most fun to me.
381
00:23:40,732.4118369 --> 00:23:45,142.4118369
Like testing all this and seeing all the craziness that's going on associated with this.
382
00:23:45,142.4118369 --> 00:23:54,982.4118369
And, uh, you know, also the collective community, you know, coming together and working on this build because not you, not me, not any single one person, you know, can come up with this like end game build.
383
00:23:54,982.4118369 --> 00:23:55,642.4118369
It's always like a.
384
00:23:55,912.4118369 --> 00:24:04,792.4118369
You know, a community like effort, collaboration from different regions, from China, from, from, from Asia, from from Europe, from U and the United States, from everywhere.
385
00:24:04,912.4118369 --> 00:24:14,272.4118369
People just coming together and like, you know, keep improving those builds, keep cooking on them, and it, it's just cool like to see this like community effort and then to beat like a OZ 25 finally.
386
00:24:14,272.4118369 --> 00:24:14,842.4118369
It was so cool.
387
00:24:15,787.9118369 --> 00:24:19,222.9118369
No, I a hundred percent agree and that's, that's what I've really loved about.
388
00:24:19,942.9118369 --> 00:24:24,562.9118369
Even just starting to create content with DIA four is that the community's incredibly welcoming.
389
00:24:24,562.9118369 --> 00:24:31,822.9118369
They really like sharing ideas and building builds, and you always have the people that are like, oh, well, you just are using this person's build.
390
00:24:31,822.9118369 --> 00:24:35,482.9118369
But a lot of the bills are very similar, and that's the whole point.
391
00:24:35,482.9118369 --> 00:24:42,412.9118369
Like you play a build, you learn it, you see how people are playing it, and then you make a change that you like to do or share all of your findings.
392
00:24:42,412.9118369 --> 00:24:43,132.9118369
It's pretty cool.
393
00:24:43,162.4118369 --> 00:24:45,412.4118369
Yeah, I mean, I keep hearing something similar like that.
394
00:24:45,412.4118369 --> 00:24:51,712.4118369
I mean, obviously give credit where credit is due, but, uh, nobody, nobody owns a, a, a built in a video game.
395
00:24:51,712.4118369 --> 00:25:00,832.4118369
And like, I see this like so many times, dude, like, ah, but like, you are playing this and this person's whirlwind built, like, like what? Like we played whirlwind like 20 years ago.
396
00:25:00,832.4118369 --> 00:25:04,927.9118369
If anything, blizzard made a whirlwind built, like, what are you talking about? Yeah.
397
00:25:05,122.4118369 --> 00:25:05,962.4118369
crazy sometimes.
398
00:25:06,487.9118369 --> 00:25:06,817.9118369
Yeah.
399
00:25:07,27.9118369 --> 00:25:09,142.4118369
Just play the bill you like to play Y.
400
00:25:09,217.9118369 --> 00:25:10,222.4118369
if you, somebody Yeah.
401
00:25:10,222.4118369 --> 00:25:13,207.9118369
Yeah, obviously you can give them credit for it, but it doesn't really matter.
402
00:25:13,207.9118369 --> 00:25:15,337.9118369
Like you're playing a bill, you're playing a video game, you're having fun.
403
00:25:15,472.4118369 --> 00:25:15,682.4118369
yeah.
404
00:25:15,682.4118369 --> 00:25:20,332.4118369
And overall, like just coming together and working on this problem, like as a collective, as a community.
405
00:25:20,542.4118369 --> 00:25:22,492.4118369
Like that's the coolest, you know? And, uh.
406
00:25:22,777.9118369 --> 00:25:24,7.9118369
uh, I a hundred percent agree.
407
00:25:24,742.4118369 --> 00:25:26,512.4118369
There is obviously, there's one second.
408
00:25:26,512.4118369 --> 00:25:36,712.4118369
There's like a lot of, um, you know, obviously like there's sometimes there's a little bit drama here and there in the Yaba community, but overall it's exactly like you said, you know, the, uh, the A RPG and in particular here, the Yaba community.
409
00:25:36,832.4118369 --> 00:25:46,252.4118369
I feel like there's, you know, I would say like they are like quite ma mature people, you know, they're not like, like looking at Fortnite or something where you have like a lot of younger people play.
410
00:25:46,402.4118369 --> 00:25:46,822.4118369
Like here.
411
00:25:46,822.4118369 --> 00:25:52,72.4118369
I think we have a lot of like 30, 40, maybe even 50 year olds or something, uh, that are, that are playing.
412
00:25:52,807.4118369 --> 00:25:54,337.4118369
Some grandpas maybe as well.
413
00:25:55,147.4118369 --> 00:25:59,437.4118369
And you know, people are generally like very like friendly and, and very welcoming in the community.
414
00:25:59,557.4118369 --> 00:26:05,587.4118369
We don't really have this like, you know, PVP community in like Doda or something like where there's like an, you know, like an elbow society.
415
00:26:05,587.4118369 --> 00:26:10,597.4118369
And here I think it's more like, you know, we work together to have fun and two slaves and demons together.
416
00:26:10,597.4118369 --> 00:26:16,357.4118369
And that's just way cooler and, uh, way more like positive to be a content creator.
417
00:26:16,357.4118369 --> 00:26:20,977.4118369
And then in some of those, like let's say PVP communities for one of games.
418
00:26:21,127.9118369 --> 00:26:21,907.9118369
hundred percent agree.
419
00:26:21,937.9118369 --> 00:26:22,177.9118369
Yeah.
420
00:26:22,507.9118369 --> 00:26:27,607.9118369
I actually have one of the officers in my Discord channel, she's in her seventies.
421
00:26:27,997.9118369 --> 00:26:28,987.9118369
She's still gaming.
422
00:26:29,827.9118369 --> 00:26:30,937.4118369
She's yeah.
423
00:26:31,267.9118369 --> 00:26:31,747.9118369
two.
424
00:26:31,747.9118369 --> 00:26:32,912.9118369
She or Diablo four.
425
00:26:33,187.9118369 --> 00:26:34,237.9118369
Yeah, she's there.
426
00:26:34,237.9118369 --> 00:26:35,287.9118369
She's doing Diablo four.
427
00:26:35,287.9118369 --> 00:26:36,937.9118369
She's doing p OE two.
428
00:26:37,27.4118369 --> 00:26:38,347.4118369
Living the life, man.
429
00:26:38,352.4118369 --> 00:26:38,752.4118369
That's cool.
430
00:26:38,827.9118369 --> 00:26:39,487.9118369
amazing.
431
00:26:40,117.9118369 --> 00:26:40,447.9118369
Yeah.
432
00:26:40,537.9118369 --> 00:26:41,167.9118369
So good.
433
00:26:42,202.9118369 --> 00:27:00,37.4118369
So the question of which we go on a great, great tangent, um, is actually what is your approach to a, to doing things like that, like pushing your max level to 100 in the very first, or doing a OZ, preparing for the gauntlet? What, what is your approach to doing this high level content? Okay.
434
00:27:00,217.4118369 --> 00:27:04,297.4118369
In short, I would say town is lava and focus on DPS.
435
00:27:04,477.4118369 --> 00:27:09,487.4118369
So unless you're playing hardcore for the second point, unless you're playing hardcore.
436
00:27:09,967.4118369 --> 00:27:15,217.4118369
I feel like the, the most efficient way to play the game, if that's what you care about and that's what's giving me the most joy.
437
00:27:15,217.4118369 --> 00:27:16,417.4118369
That's what's giving me the most fun.
438
00:27:16,417.4118369 --> 00:27:20,47.4118369
I wanna be, you know, as close to the max efficiency as I possibly can.
439
00:27:20,197.4118369 --> 00:27:22,717.4118369
That's just what I enjoy and that's how I like and max the game.
440
00:27:22,717.4118369 --> 00:27:26,407.4118369
And that's what I also share in terms of knowledge with, with you guys, with the community.
441
00:27:26,407.4118369 --> 00:27:31,657.4118369
Like, you know how we do this and I really like, you know, focus on damage, like toughness, doesn't really matter.
442
00:27:31,687.4118369 --> 00:27:33,247.4118369
My motto is like, if you can one shot them.
443
00:27:33,757.4118369 --> 00:27:37,267.4118369
They can't wanna shot you, so you just one shot them first and you're good.
444
00:27:37,267.4118369 --> 00:27:47,77.4118369
You know? So that, like, that was also like in a OZ in the end, like we went like, okay, melted heart was cool for quality of life, but in the end we went banish lords and we went like full DPS basically type its will and all that stuff.
445
00:27:47,377.4118369 --> 00:27:57,37.4118369
So, um, this is in the end always the way, and I think it's almost in every A RPG, but especially in the ar you just wanna focus on damage and, uh, just kill the, the enemies before they kill you.
446
00:27:57,37.4118369 --> 00:28:02,287.4118369
And this is like how you can achieve, uh, I think, uh, overall better Empire clears and then obviously like, don't.
447
00:28:02,757.4118369 --> 00:28:12,567.4118369
Think about it so much, you know, don't stand in town like, you know, for half an hour trying to like, you know, roll like 5% more, arm more or get this ti teeny tiny thing.
448
00:28:12,567.4118369 --> 00:28:13,557.4118369
Like just do the next run.
449
00:28:13,557.4118369 --> 00:28:16,767.4118369
Just do the next run, keep blasting and you're gonna get experience.
450
00:28:16,767.4118369 --> 00:28:24,117.4118369
You're gonna get paragons, you're gonna get new items, you're gonna get jam ups and you're just gonna be so much stronger, you know, if you just, uh, keep going, especially.
451
00:28:24,532.4118369 --> 00:28:26,572.4118369
Uh, you know, in the first week of the season or something.
452
00:28:26,812.4118369 --> 00:28:28,762.4118369
Like, that's also how I get to Peregrine 300.
453
00:28:28,762.4118369 --> 00:28:34,642.4118369
I just don't stand in town, you know, whenever I'm talking like, uh, I dunno, like to the chat or something, I'm, I'm reading questions.
454
00:28:34,642.4118369 --> 00:28:36,712.4118369
I just like, you know, meanwhile, I, I just play a run.
455
00:28:36,712.4118369 --> 00:28:37,732.4118369
I, I don't know, I do something.
456
00:28:38,407.9118369 --> 00:28:38,737.9118369
Yeah.
457
00:28:39,607.9118369 --> 00:28:46,987.9118369
it, it is definitely a grind to get there and you, I don't think people understand quite how much time it it takes and how much you have to just kill monsters.
458
00:28:47,2.4118369 --> 00:28:53,902.4118369
It's like, you know, for me it takes about a hundred hours to get to Paragon 300, but that's like very efficient play and uh, like, you know, let's say the same person.
459
00:28:54,247.4118369 --> 00:29:03,667.4118369
Or a similar person, like he, he puts in this much time and if he, you know, is like, you know, not that efficient or setting it hard, it can take more than 200 hours to reach Paragon 300 and, and Easy.
460
00:29:03,667.4118369 --> 00:29:05,167.4118369
It can maybe even take 300 hours.
461
00:29:05,167.4118369 --> 00:29:07,957.4118369
You know, it just really depends on what you're doing and what your priorities are.
462
00:29:08,107.4118369 --> 00:29:12,217.4118369
But for me, again, that's just how I like to play and how I like to enjoy the game.
463
00:29:12,217.4118369 --> 00:29:14,47.4118369
You know, like other people might be different.
464
00:29:14,47.4118369 --> 00:29:17,497.4118369
They might be looking at, well, here are the nice graphics and you know, we gonna chill.
465
00:29:17,497.4118369 --> 00:29:21,877.4118369
And, uh, it's uh, just the individual, like what everybody wants to do, basically.
466
00:29:22,632.9118369 --> 00:29:23,542.9118369
Yeah, no, definitely.
467
00:29:23,542.9118369 --> 00:29:30,757.4118369
I've actually never hit 300, but I think one season I'm probably gonna start going And it is also gonna accumulate, right? Like, uh, over time.
468
00:29:30,787.4118369 --> 00:29:37,327.9118369
What about Paragon? Are you right now in the or like, uh, what, what's your highest in the season? This season, I think I'm only like 2 67.
469
00:29:37,327.9118369 --> 00:29:38,227.9118369
I'm, I'm pretty low.
470
00:29:38,227.9118369 --> 00:29:43,657.9118369
I haven't had as much time to play as I wanted to, but the highest I ever got was, I think 2 96.
471
00:29:43,897.4118369 --> 00:29:46,297.4118369
Yeah, but the thing is, I mean, that's also like, uh, 96.
472
00:29:46,297.4118369 --> 00:29:47,137.4118369
That's already pretty good.
473
00:29:47,242.4118369 --> 00:29:48,922.4118369
But that's almost there.
474
00:29:48,922.4118369 --> 00:29:50,227.9118369
What like, it's like, there.
475
00:29:50,227.9118369 --> 00:29:50,437.9118369
Yeah.
476
00:29:50,617.9118369 --> 00:29:50,797.9118369
Yeah.
477
00:29:50,797.9118369 --> 00:29:51,427.9118369
I was almost there.
478
00:29:51,742.4118369 --> 00:29:51,952.4118369
okay.
479
00:29:51,952.4118369 --> 00:29:52,192.4118369
But yeah.
480
00:29:52,192.4118369 --> 00:29:55,357.9118369
So in non season you're already 300 then Yeah.
481
00:29:55,492.4118369 --> 00:29:56,902.4118369
When it comes together? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
482
00:29:56,932.4118369 --> 00:29:57,112.4118369
Okay.
483
00:29:57,112.4118369 --> 00:29:58,132.4118369
So you're basically, yeah.
484
00:29:58,132.4118369 --> 00:30:00,652.4118369
You or Tony, you're basically three hundred and two ninety six.
485
00:30:00,652.4118369 --> 00:30:01,942.4118369
I mean, you're definitely basically there.
486
00:30:02,152.4118369 --> 00:30:02,587.4118369
And the thing is like.
487
00:30:03,172.4118369 --> 00:30:04,222.4118369
This is also a bit of a problem.
488
00:30:04,222.4118369 --> 00:30:08,542.4118369
Like there's not really like a crazy incentive, you know, after like, I don't know, like two 70 or something.
489
00:30:08,542.4118369 --> 00:30:10,972.4118369
Like, I, I just do it because I just enjoy it.
490
00:30:10,972.4118369 --> 00:30:16,222.4118369
I would even like to see it go, go more and be harder, but you know, like, it's just completely optional anyways.
491
00:30:16,222.4118369 --> 00:30:17,962.4118369
It's like nobody needs to do this.
492
00:30:17,962.4118369 --> 00:30:21,742.4118369
It's just like a cool, like personal small achievement if you wanna do it.
493
00:30:22,582.9118369 --> 00:30:22,822.9118369
Yeah.
494
00:30:22,822.9118369 --> 00:30:25,672.9118369
I think it would be great if they just added one more board.
495
00:30:26,257.4118369 --> 00:30:27,67.4118369
Yeah, dude.
496
00:30:27,127.4118369 --> 00:30:27,667.4118369
One more board.
497
00:30:27,727.4118369 --> 00:30:34,87.4118369
But, but I also think, and this is a really big issue and I'm gonna make a video about this here in the next days as well and be very vocal about it.
498
00:30:34,417.4118369 --> 00:30:38,557.4118369
I really feel we have a big problem with, with experience and with rewards in general.
499
00:30:38,677.4118369 --> 00:30:42,402.4118369
Like what Blizzard did last season, they basically made the pit scaling so crazy.
500
00:30:43,132.4118369 --> 00:30:47,782.4118369
That, uh, you know, like most people are capping all around pit 100, maybe 110 if they're really pushing it.
501
00:30:48,172.4118369 --> 00:30:51,802.4118369
Um, but the problem is they completely forgot or they just didn't do it.
502
00:30:51,802.4118369 --> 00:30:53,662.4118369
They didn't scale the rewards with it.
503
00:30:53,812.4118369 --> 00:31:01,12.4118369
So it's completely unreasonable in terms of being efficient or, you know, improving your character to do any high pit.
504
00:31:01,42.4118369 --> 00:31:02,392.4118369
It's a complete waste of time.
505
00:31:02,782.4118369 --> 00:31:07,672.4118369
And I really think they need to increase the rewards for high and challenging content.
506
00:31:07,822.4118369 --> 00:31:14,422.4118369
Basically, the most efficient, the best way to play the game right now is to do content that is in no way challenging to your character.
507
00:31:14,422.4118369 --> 00:31:16,192.4118369
You wanna run like Pit 70 or something.
508
00:31:16,192.4118369 --> 00:31:18,862.4118369
Pit 69, I was always running because it's a great number now.
509
00:31:18,862.4118369 --> 00:31:21,562.4118369
We was just running Pit 69 all the time to Paragon 300.
510
00:31:21,952.4118369 --> 00:31:24,682.4118369
And people always ask, yeah, why don't you do hire? I said, it's just not worth it.
511
00:31:24,682.4118369 --> 00:31:38,92.4118369
You know, like the monsters, they get like 20 something percent more HP and you get 1% more exp it's like you're basically losing experience If you, if you're going up and you're not getting any more, uh, greater fixes, you're not really getting many more obos either.
512
00:31:38,242.4118369 --> 00:31:47,782.4118369
So I really feel that the yellow has a big problem there where I would want challenge or the most challenging content to also be the most, or at least more rewarding than it is right now.
513
00:31:49,477.9118369 --> 00:31:49,717.9118369
Yeah.
514
00:31:50,467.9118369 --> 00:31:50,677.9118369
Yeah.
515
00:31:50,677.9118369 --> 00:32:00,637.9118369
And with the changes that they had season nine where they're going to be increasing by torment tier, I think that they're starting to think about it.
516
00:32:00,637.9118369 --> 00:32:01,327.9118369
At least I.
517
00:32:02,92.9118369 --> 00:32:04,312.4118369
maybe that's gonna be something that we Hope so.
518
00:32:04,312.9118369 --> 00:32:04,942.9118369
start to see.
519
00:32:06,52.9118369 --> 00:32:08,512.9118369
at least it's, it at least the concept was thrown out there.
520
00:32:09,262.9118369 --> 00:32:11,392.4118369
I don't know how it's gonna feel and Yep.
521
00:32:11,512.9118369 --> 00:32:14,422.9118369
go live in the season, but at least it was, was thrown out there.
522
00:32:16,12.9118369 --> 00:32:18,562.9118369
talking about season nine, just around the corner.
523
00:32:19,522.9118369 --> 00:32:23,512.9118369
As always, there is mixed views from the community as every season brings.
524
00:32:24,622.9118369 --> 00:32:33,112.9118369
much are you expecting the change from the PTR to the live version and what do you think the seasonable candidate is gonna do? Do you think that, but we haven't seen that yet.
525
00:32:33,112.9118369 --> 00:32:40,222.4118369
Do you think it's gonna be a game changer? So obviously I have my wishes and then there is what I can realistically expect from Blizzard.
526
00:32:40,222.4118369 --> 00:32:42,382.4118369
And those are two very different things, unfortunately.
527
00:32:42,837.9118369 --> 00:32:46,102.4118369
Right, I think the game needs a lot of help right now.
528
00:32:46,552.4118369 --> 00:32:48,712.4118369
Um, but I think I.
529
00:32:49,57.4118369 --> 00:32:54,457.4118369
Like, this is just speculation, but I just think they are holding most of the big updates back for the expansion.
530
00:32:54,457.4118369 --> 00:32:58,207.4118369
Obviously there's gonna be another paywall with the expansion and stuff, and this is just how it works.
531
00:32:58,447.4118369 --> 00:32:59,767.4118369
Like they just wanna earn some money.
532
00:32:59,767.4118369 --> 00:33:00,37.4118369
Right.
533
00:33:00,367.4118369 --> 00:33:01,927.4118369
That's just always, unfortunately how it is.
534
00:33:02,197.4118369 --> 00:33:04,957.4118369
And it looks like we are not really getting anything.
535
00:33:04,957.4118369 --> 00:33:05,377.4118369
Uh.
536
00:33:05,662.4118369 --> 00:33:07,312.4118369
Like, you know, completely crazy.
537
00:33:07,312.4118369 --> 00:33:12,712.4118369
That's game changing until then, and I really hope this is happens like early next year with the expansion.
538
00:33:13,42.4118369 --> 00:33:18,712.4118369
But until then, I think we just, uh, yeah, have to deal with powers and powers and more powers every season.
539
00:33:19,132.4118369 --> 00:33:20,662.4118369
And, uh, minimal changes.
540
00:33:20,662.4118369 --> 00:33:21,202.4118369
Obviously, I.
541
00:33:21,572.4118369 --> 00:33:25,952.4118369
I really hope, and I think this is also can be expected, that they change the class balance.
542
00:33:25,952.4118369 --> 00:33:28,202.4118369
Like they gotta fix the box, first of all.
543
00:33:28,442.4118369 --> 00:33:29,702.4118369
So I think they will do this.
544
00:33:29,702.4118369 --> 00:33:32,912.4118369
There's obviously the infinite damage bulb, like with the bleed stuff.
545
00:33:32,912.4118369 --> 00:33:33,542.4118369
It was fun.
546
00:33:33,602.4118369 --> 00:33:40,322.4118369
It was fun on the PT R, but people always get mad like, don't show this on the PTR, don't shoulders, they're gonna nerve this.
547
00:33:40,502.4118369 --> 00:33:44,732.4118369
And I'm like, dude, like it's maybe gonna be fun in the live game for one or two days, completely back.
548
00:33:44,732.4118369 --> 00:33:48,242.4118369
Does infinite damage, like it's not good for the long-term health of the game.
549
00:33:48,382.9118369 --> 00:33:51,847.4118369
at We wanna like, you know, the community, it needs to be shown.
550
00:33:51,847.4118369 --> 00:33:58,357.4118369
It needs to be figured out on the PTI, and I'm very happy and grateful that we have a PTR because else all these bucks, they just happen in the life game.
551
00:33:58,657.4118369 --> 00:34:00,997.4118369
So, um, yeah, they need to fix some of those bucks.
552
00:34:00,997.4118369 --> 00:34:04,657.4118369
Like there's also spirit bond double dipping and just double dipping on shatter.
553
00:34:04,657.4118369 --> 00:34:07,447.4118369
And like all the, all the top builds are always bucked.
554
00:34:07,657.4118369 --> 00:34:11,287.4118369
And this is like one of the biggest problems that, uh, I think the game has as well.
555
00:34:11,947.4118369 --> 00:34:14,407.4118369
Where basically like the, the top builds.
556
00:34:14,407.4118369 --> 00:34:18,127.4118369
Like, it's not really like about, you know, how, uh, how good you character.
557
00:34:18,337.4118369 --> 00:34:23,107.4118369
It's just always about knowledge of what's bucked, like, where is the problem and the damage calculation.
558
00:34:23,107.4118369 --> 00:34:29,197.4118369
Like what can you do there, at least on the high end, right? If you, if people are seeing the high pit clears, it is just like that.
559
00:34:29,197.4118369 --> 00:34:31,447.4118369
And, uh, I think that's just a really sad state.
560
00:34:31,777.4118369 --> 00:34:39,427.4118369
And, um, yeah, with the PTI, it's been gotten better and I really hope that they, uh, you know, like, uh, implement this kind of feedback and, um.
561
00:34:39,847.4118369 --> 00:34:44,167.4118369
Yeah, I hope they, um, buff up some of the new seasonal powers.
562
00:34:44,167.4118369 --> 00:34:54,877.4118369
I think overall they were like a, obviously there's a lot of customization, like what you can do with, like, those different spells that you can do and stuff, but I, I felt like it was a bit underwhelming in terms of impact.
563
00:34:55,237.9118369 --> 00:34:55,657.9118369
Mm-hmm.
564
00:34:55,717.4118369 --> 00:34:55,927.4118369
don't know.
565
00:34:55,927.4118369 --> 00:34:59,227.9118369
How do you feel about that? The seasonal powers.
566
00:34:59,227.9118369 --> 00:35:00,397.9118369
I, I did feel the same.
567
00:35:00,547.9118369 --> 00:35:05,287.9118369
There were definitely a couple of like, fun interactions, like the tele boarding one that probably won't make it to the live server.
568
00:35:05,287.9118369 --> 00:35:06,97.9118369
That was very fun.
569
00:35:07,707.4118369 --> 00:35:10,972.4118369
I, I, I really hope they don't fix that because it, it's just not much damage.
570
00:35:10,972.4118369 --> 00:35:11,122.4118369
Right.
571
00:35:11,122.4118369 --> 00:35:13,192.4118369
It's like so cool for the bob to teleport.
572
00:35:13,192.4118369 --> 00:35:17,32.4118369
The necro mounts are man necro mounts are like the slowest class you, you're flying.
573
00:35:17,32.4118369 --> 00:35:21,262.4118369
Like I really like, I I, I would be actually pretty mad if they like changed that.
574
00:35:21,262.4118369 --> 00:35:27,682.4118369
It's like, you know, you can maybe do like pit 70 to 80 max and, and this is what the season powers in my opinion should be.
575
00:35:27,682.4118369 --> 00:35:33,502.4118369
They, they should all be like that, you know, like actually change the way your character plays, not just give you a damage multiplier that's boring.
576
00:35:34,477.9118369 --> 00:35:38,557.9118369
Yeah, so, and I'm taking the powers with a grain of salt.
577
00:35:38,557.9118369 --> 00:35:43,177.9118369
When we tested out the boss powers, I was like, I don't really like these.
578
00:35:43,297.9118369 --> 00:35:46,177.9118369
It really overblown all your damage is going from that.
579
00:35:46,177.9118369 --> 00:35:47,917.9118369
You have nothing to do with your characters.
580
00:35:48,517.9118369 --> 00:35:54,67.9118369
When we hit season eight, they completely changed everything and the boss powers have actually been a lot of fun to play with.
581
00:35:54,87.4118369 --> 00:35:54,507.4118369
Mm-hmm.
582
00:35:55,27.9118369 --> 00:36:01,717.9118369
So I'm hoping we get a little bit about that with new heroic powers when they get to the season.
583
00:36:02,107.9118369 --> 00:36:08,647.9118369
But it just felt like it was just adding like a, you can get unstoppable or you can get vulnerable damage, and like that was kind of it.
584
00:36:09,367.9118369 --> 00:36:10,807.4118369
So we'll see what happens, but Did.
585
00:36:10,987.9118369 --> 00:36:11,738.9118369
that they, they change it.
586
00:36:12,97.4118369 --> 00:36:12,337.4118369
Yeah.
587
00:36:12,337.4118369 --> 00:36:13,567.4118369
I hope it's gonna be more impactful.
588
00:36:13,657.4118369 --> 00:36:14,317.4118369
Totally agree.
589
00:36:15,187.9118369 --> 00:36:15,337.9118369
Yeah.
590
00:36:15,577.9118369 --> 00:36:22,567.9118369
And I, I'm kind of curious to see, 'cause the, the only piece of the puzzle that we're missing right now is the seasonal content.
591
00:36:23,767.9118369 --> 00:36:29,257.9118369
There were a whole bunch of stuff laying around all the nightmare dungeons that we couldn't interact with the Har Rodrick strongholds.
592
00:36:30,637.9118369 --> 00:36:33,37.9118369
I'm hoping they changed this 'cause they didn't drop Oboc site.
593
00:36:34,57.4118369 --> 00:36:34,777.4118369
Yeah.
594
00:36:34,837.9118369 --> 00:36:40,387.4118369
that I saw, Was it called The strong rooms was Strong a strong rooms, yeah.
595
00:36:40,387.4118369 --> 00:36:40,957.4118369
Not strongholds.
596
00:36:41,77.9118369 --> 00:36:41,287.9118369
Yep.
597
00:36:41,377.4118369 --> 00:36:43,207.4118369
was like, wait, what? No, you're Strongholds Okay.
598
00:36:43,207.4118369 --> 00:36:43,717.4118369
No, the room.
599
00:36:43,867.4118369 --> 00:36:44,137.4118369
Yeah.
600
00:36:44,137.4118369 --> 00:36:44,707.4118369
Yeah, totally.
601
00:36:44,707.4118369 --> 00:36:53,737.4118369
'cause I mean, basically the reason to go to nightmares, at least right now is to get optic side and, and then it seems like you're taking a break from that and just doing this strong room.
602
00:36:53,767.4118369 --> 00:36:55,207.4118369
It doesn't even give any of the oxide.
603
00:36:55,207.4118369 --> 00:36:56,167.4118369
It just doesn't make sense.
604
00:36:57,7.4118369 --> 00:37:05,77.4118369
Uh, and I also really hope, you know the theme is called Escalating Nightmare Dungeon or Escalating Escalation.
605
00:37:05,542.4118369 --> 00:37:06,622.4118369
There's no escalation.
606
00:37:06,622.4118369 --> 00:37:12,772.4118369
Like what, what they, what they even mean, like, you know, it's like basically just the three torment, four dungeons in a row with a boss in the end.
607
00:37:13,162.4118369 --> 00:37:14,692.4118369
Like I, I was hoping.
608
00:37:15,397.4118369 --> 00:37:21,247.4118369
And I gave this feedback already that this goes well beyond torment four difficulty at least if you want to.
609
00:37:21,247.4118369 --> 00:37:21,487.4118369
Right.
610
00:37:21,487.4118369 --> 00:37:25,597.4118369
And then obviously as it as it's harder, you all should also get more rewards.
611
00:37:25,597.4118369 --> 00:37:33,877.4118369
I really hope they stop doing this just T four content because you outscale it so fast and it definitely doesn't feel like any escalation system whatsoever.
612
00:37:34,147.4118369 --> 00:37:36,487.4118369
So, yeah, I don't know if I'm expecting this.
613
00:37:36,487.4118369 --> 00:37:43,357.4118369
I'm hoping, I'm hoping that this is gonna happen, that they're gonna, you know, make the higher levels harder and go well beyond torment four.
614
00:37:44,407.9118369 --> 00:37:45,157.9118369
Yeah, me too.
615
00:37:45,457.9118369 --> 00:37:47,857.9118369
I don't know how it's gonna feel going in with a fresh character.
616
00:37:47,857.9118369 --> 00:37:51,922.4118369
I, I did the opposite, uh, this time on the PTR last but I mean, that's fine.
617
00:37:51,922.4118369 --> 00:37:55,897.4118369
You can just do T one, right? Like you don't have to do T four or whatever the highest tier is gonna be.
618
00:37:55,897.9118369 --> 00:37:56,167.9118369
Yeah.
619
00:37:56,497.9118369 --> 00:37:56,647.9118369
Yeah.
620
00:37:56,647.9118369 --> 00:38:03,997.9118369
So I do hope that it does go, like the first one feels a little bit less, maybe if you start on tier one feels like tier one then feels like tier two then feels like tier three.
621
00:38:03,997.9118369 --> 00:38:05,197.9118369
So we'll see.
622
00:38:05,527.9118369 --> 00:38:07,627.9118369
We'll see what it looks like when it, when it drops, but.
623
00:38:07,657.9118369 --> 00:38:09,7.9118369
But yeah, I don't know.
624
00:38:09,7.9118369 --> 00:38:13,687.4118369
I'm, I'm kind of, kind of hopeful, kind of not, there's been a lot of Fingers crossed.
625
00:38:13,747.9118369 --> 00:38:16,717.9118369
about, about the Paladin.
626
00:38:17,677.9118369 --> 00:38:18,277.4118369
I Oh yeah.
627
00:38:18,337.9118369 --> 00:38:23,647.9118369
had this whole big scare with the Xbox a lot, uh, event that they had.
628
00:38:24,7.9118369 --> 00:38:29,707.9118369
And just saw a video about somebody talking about the Knights gathering at the middle of the night.
629
00:38:29,707.9118369 --> 00:38:31,312.4118369
And Yeah, yeah, yeah, I saw that.
630
00:38:31,312.4118369 --> 00:38:32,152.4118369
I think it was Riker.
631
00:38:32,182.4118369 --> 00:38:32,962.4118369
It was good video.
632
00:38:33,187.9118369 --> 00:38:33,367.9118369
Yep.
633
00:38:33,367.9118369 --> 00:38:33,817.9118369
Riker.
634
00:38:33,817.9118369 --> 00:38:34,117.9118369
Riker.
635
00:38:34,117.9118369 --> 00:38:34,447.9118369
Did it.
636
00:38:35,407.9118369 --> 00:38:43,252.4118369
Do you think it's coming? Um, so I don't know what they're gonna call it, but I'm like 99% this speculation, but I'm 99%.
637
00:38:43,582.4118369 --> 00:38:46,522.4118369
It's gonna be the holy archetype sword and broad.
638
00:38:46,522.4118369 --> 00:38:47,932.4118369
There's too many spoilers.
639
00:38:48,232.4118369 --> 00:38:49,672.4118369
Uh, too many like, you know.
640
00:38:49,987.4118369 --> 00:39:04,597.4118369
Hints, let's say, and I mean, I think even what Ferguson, the manager himself, like, he, he, he didn't say it point blank, but he basically said it between the lines that they're gonna be making a Paladin or they, maybe they call it like, I don't know, like a templo or like a priest, whatever.
641
00:39:04,957.4118369 --> 00:39:10,957.4118369
But I mean, I would definitely, like, they, they gotta make the Paladin, you know, it's like Microsoft now, like they wanna make money.
642
00:39:11,212.4118369 --> 00:39:15,382.4118369
And, uh, the easiest way, the easiest w for them is to make a paladin.
643
00:39:15,382.4118369 --> 00:39:18,562.4118369
Like it would be great marketing and it just gives the people what they want.
644
00:39:18,562.4118369 --> 00:39:26,632.4118369
And no matter how cool they make an alternative class right now, if they don't give you paladin, majority of the community is just gonna be mad anyways.
645
00:39:26,782.4118369 --> 00:39:33,652.4118369
So it's a, it's an easy monetary w and I think that's the main language that is spoken there in, in corporate America.
646
00:39:33,652.4118369 --> 00:39:34,912.4118369
Like, this is how it's gonna go, man.
647
00:39:35,887.9118369 --> 00:39:36,217.9118369
yep.
648
00:39:36,392.9118369 --> 00:39:39,787.4118369
Yeah, I think there would be, uh, riots if there's no Paladin Yeah.
649
00:39:39,787.9118369 --> 00:39:42,847.9118369
Paladin Light class, something like that.
650
00:39:43,927.9118369 --> 00:39:47,287.9118369
so, well, that was all of the questions that I had for you today.
651
00:39:48,157.9118369 --> 00:39:55,567.9118369
Thank you for all that you do for the Diablo community, sharing bills, helping people, just being able, doing things like this with me.
652
00:39:55,657.9118369 --> 00:39:57,67.9118369
I really appreciate it.
653
00:39:57,157.9118369 --> 00:39:58,867.9118369
Uh, this has been an amazing interview.
654
00:39:59,707.9118369 --> 00:40:08,677.9118369
So for everybody that is listening or watching, 'cause we do this on a bunch of different platforms, some don't have video, you wanna spell out for everybody where they can come and find you.

657
00:40:11,947.4118369 --> 00:40:12,217.4118369
All right.

00:40:12,217.4118369 --> 00:40:12,487.4118369
Yeah.

00:40:12,487.4118369 --> 00:40:13,237.4118369
Thanks for having me here.
660
00:40:13,237.4118369 --> 00:40:14,77.4118369
It was really cool, man.
661
00:40:14,167.4118369 --> 00:40:21,157.4118369
Like Bob Nation is uniting here, so obviously, uh, I'm rob to six to eight on uh, Twitch, YouTube.

00:40:21,232.4118369 --> 00:40:23,662.4118369
TikTok, I think with an underscore on TikTok.
663
00:40:24,22.4118369 --> 00:40:25,522.4118369
You can put it in the description maybe.
664
00:40:25,822.4118369 --> 00:40:30,952.4118369
And, uh, yeah, we'll be, we'll be cooking up some, uh, content here all together for, for season nine.
665
00:40:30,952.4118369 --> 00:40:31,792.4118369
I can't wait, man.
666
00:40:31,792.4118369 --> 00:40:32,662.4118369
Was fun, Gigi.
667
00:40:33,802.9118369 --> 00:40:34,402.9118369
That was awesome.
668
00:40:34,402.9118369 --> 00:40:37,282.9118369
Well, thank you everybody for listening and for watching out there.

I'll catch you all on the next episode of Masters Sanctuary Clip Cast.
670
00:40:43,312.4118369 --> 00:40:43,432.4118369
Peace.
