YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!
I started SUPER late, ( last week ) and got a hardcore crusader to torment 12, but then got some bad hits and was cratered by a rift guardian.

Probably going to be less hardcore in playing this until the next season starts up, but how many hardcore goons are there?

I think it was last year I made a Monk, asked for a carry to 70, then the same person and a group of 4 carried me on like 20 goblin runs, and then basically had my choice of great for the whole season. The Goon D3 community is really cool.

Where is the D3 goon community? I thought it was the LLJK chat but I've seen a single person speak on it.

It is but the season is almost over so people have burned out for the season or just playing something else until the next season starts. It'll be real active when 23 goes live.

Most of us just do the season journey each season and maybe dork around with fun builds. That lasts about a month. Then the cycle begins anew.

There are about 4 of us that are still playing for anything this season but at this point I'm basically just doing high GRs to try to finish up level 150 augment gems for a couple sets before the last bit of solo pushing.

Besides the in-game community there's a discord.

Yep, there's just a few tryhards and a whole lot of casuals that gently caress off after about a week or two. There's a discord and the lljk community.

I've played a bit of hardcore & think I'm at the point now where I'm only gonna play hardcore seasonals. Once the char's dead (unless it's a laughably short time) I'll be done until the following season. On Switch tho

Since they've finally partitioned out seasonal leaderboards by class set my goal will be to find some off-meta spec and rank high on the leaderboards.

Leaderboard filters are:
Overall
Each class set
No set

So Blackthorn's still won't have its own tier to compete in.

Honestly they should just add another category that is for any build that has a set buff active that doesn't come from a class set.

I'm assuming you know you have to reach GR70 first? At which point you get a guaranteed one.

My favorite first primal was a flavor of time with crit and crit dmg on a build that had an open neck slot. It was super sweet.

Wouldn't that just be the LoN category? To be fair, the "no set" category is already the LoN/LoD category...

LoN would probably be the best choice in that category but LoN sees approximately zero use with LoD existing.

Every one does LoD now, no one builds out with the rings. Though technically they'd show up on that leaderboard. The LoD builds would be on the no set, so Blackthorn's, sage, cain, crimson, augholds, (technically LoN) etc.. would all be on active set power with no class set leaderboard. And I am sure they can just tweak it so that LoN and LoD would be on the same filter if they wanted.

Yeah currently on the PTR, the filter is for "No 6 piece set bonus"
Meaning if you look at the Wizard 'No 6 piece set bonus' all the results are the tal'rasha's + firebirds set up.

I let my online sub lapse and there's not much reason for me to get it again since it's garbage, IMO.

I would probably give hardcore a try if they followed the same death rules as PoE, where your character just changes to a "normal" character instead of just getting deleted.

Developer's Note *Update: Initially multiple legendary powers were left uncapped to see how players would utilize them, however we didn't anticipate for Army of the Dead to be able to cast as frequently as it was. This totally dominated how the set was played and also resulted in permanent invincibility. We're attempting to address this and we'd love for players to try out the new changes and provide additional feedback.
