Timestamps are in the video description. Did you learn anything from this video?

[@RobKnapp1]

I absolutely did learn some very useful info. I really like your "Follower" tips as I use the Enchantress for her look, and wacky dialog and like your take on using the "Follower" you like best as there gear is the most important aspect. There are many other very useful tips in your thorough comprehensive presentation. Thanks a million !!

[@A1eksey_057]

Yes! watched a half of video and got so many things to learn and change in my playstyle. Well done! all usefull tips in one place now.

[@einerdek69]

Did I learned anything? I've gathered more useful knowledge in this video, than in my 4 years in college.

[@mattmccloskey8102]

I learned that big booty's are great in real life.

[@denchrede6303]

It sure did ! Thank you SO much for taking you'r time to do this, the pylon part was very interesting i'll make sure to use these tips and tricks right away :)

[@MMuniz]

I’ve learned more in the first 10 mins of this video than I have in the past month on KZbin watching d3 guides

[@guybrushthreepwood8174]

if u havent played D2r and u get into D2r, def check his beginner guide for that game, its actually one of the best guides for D2 basics taht i came across he just formats it very informally but he gives great tips there for D2 also.

[@joesaffire6834]

This is by far and away the best D3 guide I've ever watched. Effort, clarity, thoroughness, knowledge, attention to detail, everything. A truly awesome work. Thank you Raxx.

[@Raxxanterax]

Thank you for the lovely comment Joe, appreciate that

[@guybrushthreepwood8174]

yeah its good.

[@CptSupermrkt]

Holy shit. This is the most mic-drop video I've ever seen on D3. gg.

[@dujedvornik8570]

Again as I say in the last few video's , especially since monk supp guide for last season. This is best you video guide"s for Diablo contest , I ever saw in the 7 year's of playing the game. This is best thing for a new Diablo player , returning, or just people who want's to know more , or even progress further with they progress this season. Big cheer's from Croatia ( EU) ,town Split.

[@thenickolau5542]

Rax - this is by far the BEST guide on GRs, and generally leveling I have ever seen. Plain, simple, consistent, full. I learned so much, thank you!

[@Juan-fv5su]

The all time greatest D3 youtuber. Period.

[@krioni86sa]

Raxx is better

[@bradmackrell656]

Yep

[@Jordan-hr3yz]

"Big booties are great in real life but terrible in Diablo 3" -Raxxanterax. Amen brother! I almost fell out of my chair! Amazing guild and thank you for taking the time to make this. You truly play on another level.

[@Lukomeyan]

I hate you because you beat me to it. By 1 year. I hope your next 10 GRs are filled with BIG Booties all over your face and some Morlus and hell witches for comic relief.

[@mongtard2]

Rax..This is Daeja here...This is the best and most in depth video of Diablo 3 I've ever seen...this content is amazing...I am so thankful and have learned so much...also side note...the Chess learning is a blast...so far going over the basics and "openers" starts tomorrow. Take care and don't stop doing what you're doing.. you're a great person and have propelled so many clueless people like me to actually doing something in D3 it's insane haha going for my seasonal goal of GR 100...it's time to join the 3 digits club! haha

[@thesavage2054]

Videos like this have inspired me and I'm aiming for 100 this season as well :) 75 was my highest previously and I've got to 86 so far for the season. Where are you up to mongtard2?

[@Bansh33]

@@thesavage2054 same here, im up to 95..so close :D

[@TheVertical92]

@@Bansh33 This Season is absolute overkill. It depends on Class, but i think you will get 100 easy. My highest GRift in previous Seasons were 90s. In S19 i got 113. And i dont play a competetive Build.

[@hex1967]

Really excited to watch this whole thing. You’re a legend man

[@dodoontherocks]

Yes yes yes this is amazing!!! Got into season 19 after almost 1.5 years absence... this is the perfect guide! Thank you very much!! :)

[@SmugLookingBarrel]

Huge thanks for explaining all of this information in a succinct, insightful, and friendly way. You rock.

[@katielynneyoung4738]

What a massive undertaking! Thanks to you and all who contributed for the most amazing D3 video ever.

[@nattixer]

I watched every second of this Video, even went back and forth to make sure I got the information. Great video Raxx and I look forward to try and implement things that I've learned into my gameplay as well as new content! Much love from Sweden ♥

[@trevornickle5084]

This was a well organized and informative video. You held my attention for 58 minutes - that's a feat in itself. :D Thank you for taking the time to make this video and share it with everyone. Cheers!

[@Raxxanterax]

Appreciate the lovely comment Trevor!

[@jasonbourne4865]

I have played D3 on and off for several years and I've watched quite a few video guides on the topic, but I have to say this is by far the most informative, in-depth (yet concise) one I have seen to date! Also know that I have taken your "the town is lava" statement to heart, and as a result my gains have improved tremendously, so thank you very much for your contributions to the D3 community and keep up the good work! Smashed and subbed! :)

[@XxTenShinryuxX]

Incredible work put in this video! Very impressive Raxx, thanks!

[@Wacck]

Cheers Rax, I knew like half of this. Definitely something people will look back on for many seasons to come.

[@Rob2628]

Very compact & well structured Video, there is always more to learn for all of us. Keep up the good work!

[@Raxxanterax]

BIG PLAYER! Thank you Rob

[@AJisdabombsauce]

Amazing video…truly awesome what you do for the D3 community. Much love from Washington💙💙

[@mobus1603]

Extremely thorough and accurate guide, Raxx! Thank you so much for sharing all of your vast D3 knowledge. This will help players a ton.

[@bluttu]

I must actually pause the video to say: you rule! Your guides are the most comprehensive out there, your knowledge and understanding permeates the guides, Making them great. Thank you for all your marvellous work :)

[@matkosmat8890]

Hey Rax! You always deliver, mate, it's unreal! When I saw you'd uploaded this, I didn't watch it straight away! I waited till I got comfy at home, in front of the big TV with no1 around to distract me, and a nice beverage. I have been playing D3 since release, thousands of hours. I've watched hundreds of videos, and I've piled up considerable knowledge of the game. Yet -- and I admit that happily -- I know for sure that with every single video you make, I learn something new. Every single time! Your content is unique. Stay amazing :)

[@undeadamerican1107]

Amazing video - well researched and well articulated. Long form content like this might be too much work to do regularly, but when there's a meaty topic like this it's really perfect.

[@lucaslohrmann3551]

i'm having a break from D2 to play D3 with a friend. Thank you so much for the content, you had help us a lot not only this season also to understand all the secrets behind rifts and the classes. Keep it up!!!

[@2912801821]

U rock !!! I love your narrator style and your intuitive understanding of how people take in information and then how you convert this knowledge or intuitive understanding into a information product which the listener offcourse consume ! Thanks and plz keep up the good work :)

[@ppviejo24]

This has been the most useful video of D3 i've ever watched, i learned a lot, thank Raxx for your dedication and for share all this with us!!!

[@posgrado]

Omg Raxx! This video is like a D3 Bible. Everything I ever wanted to know since I played D3 for the first time. Thank you so much for doing this for us! You are our angel gamer on earth :) Greetings!

[@user-ln6uk8hb5q]

I have to say that you are one of the best KZbinrs I have watched. Clear concise and easy to understand. Thanks for all your work

[@godless_josh]

Great job man, really very helpful. Keep up the awesome work you do for the game and the entire community of Diablo.

[@tybae]

Good shit Rax. Can’t wait to get home from work and put this to practice. I’ve been playing since vanilla and have never seen a single video with so much great and useful information.

[@jaytucker7319]

Thanks a bunch :) Really, thank you for taking the time to put this together, it's great.

[@gtelanor6079]

Super educative video definitely the best d3 guide video out there. I’ve been playing diablo for a few years now going for leaderboards but it cleared the air in so many topics what will definitely help me to get better results current and future seasons. Very big thanks to you for all the hard work and videos you post as not many top ranked players care for sharing every detail of their toughts and gameplays to help other out:) Keep up the good work we’re here to follow you! Thank you 🙏🏻

[@anthony6681]

Wonderful video man, thank you so much for all of your hard work and dedication; it really means a lot to the community!

[@spelling_ax]

Thank you SO much for taking the time and effort to put this superb resource together. You are a pillar of the D3 community, sir!

[@WatPatat]

This guide is so friggin helpful. I keep coming back to it every now and then. I can feel the love and care that's been put into this. Your guide on paragon levels/primal gear and this one have made me an infinitely better player. Thank you so much for that!

[@Raxxanterax]

really appreciate the kind words Tim, thank you!

[@jeremyguthrie5097]

Raxx you have achieved S-Tier D3 KZbin status! Thanks for the awesome content and the way you lay out all of your videos is top notch. Well done man.

[@abfall11]

cheers to you and everyone involved making this guide...very helpfull and on point. the 58mins flew by in no time. have yourself a sub good sir :)

[@tcz0rz]

Came back to D3 after several years, not knowing where to start and how to minimise grind. You just saved me many hundreds of hours and earned a sub. Thanks for the great content!

[@polar2395]

youre such a legend dude ! everything you need to know with no useless information straight to the point ! Thanks a lot

[@anthonykhoury-hanold2164]

This is one of the best guides I've ever seen, not just D3 related. It's very well organized, concise and to the point. With this guide I was able to get more paragons than ever and I was able to get a 124 gr clear this season (20). I've watched a lot of your videos and look forward to more great content. Thank-you so much!

[@Raxxanterax]

Thank you for the lovely comment Anthony!

[@Nymphibious]

I've watched a few videos from you in the past and this one made me hit the button. This is professional work, buddy. This video should pop up in every new player's Bnet window and I don't think I am exaggerating. I'm playing this game for many years, have almost 5k paragons in NS, doing regularly meta runs and still learned a few new ways to do things more efficiently.

[@omnimutant]

Thanks Raxx. You're a great resource. I learn so much watching your vids and here you go and throw this huge knowledge stack at me!

[@deeveejay]

This video is so good and informative, that I haven't found anything better, even if it's from 2019. Good job!

[@hunnabangila1074]

Amazing video. Playing D3 for the first time in 6 years and so much has changed. Thanks for getting me up to speed :)

[@doakesanddrax]

This is fantastic. I'm just starting my journey. So alot of this went over my head and I'll have to rewatch after some more experience. But I appreciate you.

[@coryking4013]

Thanks for the time you put into helping the community. I feel like Diablo 3 makes it hard for players to figure the late game and you've done an excellent job in all of your videos showing people what they can accomplish. gg

[@Kameo-jq3qo]

I started D3 shortly before Reaper of Souls came out, played until the Season 3 i think.. stopped playing, did 1 season with Necro few months ago and just started S21. Ive watched some of your videos already and holy i feel i learned so much. Not only this but i can remember it. You have a very good way of educating and explaining and im so glad u take your time to make those videos and i found them. Please keep up the amazing work and instand sub. well deserved!

[@Raxxanterax]

appreciate that very much my friend!

[@Alabite]

I can't imagine how long this took to make. Thank you for an amazing guide, it is so helpful!!!

[@patrickdurr9562]

Dude really enjoy all of your d3 content, always quality ! Fawesome work!!

[@sphonda]

Watched a few vids here and there over the past few seasons but this vid right here is what snagged a YT sub. Great stuff, man. Thank you.

[@Raxxanterax]

Appreciate that my friend!

[@Lukomeyan]

Wow! Thanks mate! I've been playing D3 for years, but I learnt a lot from this. That 100/105 tip is absolute gold!

[@doulosdphi]

Hey Raxx thanks a lot man! This was a great video and a ton of help. Learned a lot!

[@Lightkeepernc]

very nice, can't appreciate this piece enough, it gave me so much knowledge that's the underworld of high level play that i never had a chance to tackle.

[@NoahMANWII]

Just started playing this month, stalled out around GR74/solo and needed some advice on how to keep pushing! Great Video, thank you for the hard work and time you put into this!

[@explicit707]

I appreciate your videos. Well explained. I'm fairly new to current Diablo 3, and you've confirmed and corrected what I am learning as I play. Thanks again.

[@orrians]

Ty Raxx best Guide for Diablo 3 so far keep up the good work see you in Sanctuary !

[@jeffj.r.3532]

Not only is this the best D3 guide I've ever seen - this might be the most well organized, constructed, and informative video I have ever seen. I greatly appreciate the time, energy, and effort put into this. I'm a returning casual player and I've learned so much from this. My goal is to clear a level 150 GR during this season and I feel a hell of a lot more confident on where to begin lol.

[@b00stpicard]

Great video Raxx. So many unknown strategies that have boosted my game play. Just cleared GR 105, was stuck on GR 95 for so long. You just opened a whole new world for me! Thanks for taking the time. I knew there are many hours into this. Awesome slides, fantastic explanations.

[@Raxxanterax]

Thank you for the lovely comment my friend. Did you know a GR105 is about 5x harder than a GR95? That's a MAJOR improvement. congrats!

[@ohchinho]

Hey Rax, thanks so much for the video! You are the GOAT for D3!

[@FuriousGrapeGaming]

you have been doing this for such a long time and i am a long time viewer I normally watch on TV but i thought i would give you a shout out and let you know you are amazing you have helped me with sever builds on my demon hunter I just wanted to THANK YOU!!.

[@Deconstruct0]

Thank you. The most comprehensive and succinct guide to rifting available. My wife and I are finally gonna break our GR90 stasis. Dope!!

[@dannymcc777]

Cant thank you enough for this video Raxx!!! Great content and one of the best guides Ive ever seen with supporting data and graphics.

[@Raxxanterax]

Appreciate that very much danny. Took forever to make this video lol

[@Alexcdag]

Man!!! The greatest video I see in years. Thank You very very much!

[@mikemillan2494]

Wow did this video really help me understand Diablo in a way I never thought! Awesome job Raxx.

[@Raxxanterax]

Awesome Mike!

[@131313jim]

Great job!!! Thanks to your vids I've run a 129 with Barb and 130 with sader on xb1 so far. Need a few better items and some higher augs till I push further. Keep up the great work!

[@JustinNogle]

Extraordinarily in-depth and insanely helpful. Thank you so much for this guide! My wife and I have been smashing our heads into the hardest GRs we can get through, barely!

[@scarlet8078]

This was a great vid, not just in terms of D3 (which I recently returned to play on vacation & discovered I remembered nothing lol). This was a good tutorial for gaming in general, covering even the most basic of definition that most of us take for granted if we've played Blizzard games since we were kids. Nice work! 💞

[@carlbuhlmann2863]

By far the most helpful D3 video I have ever seen. Thank you Raxxanterax for your comitment and time to make this!

[@Raxxanterax]

Appreciate that Carl, was happy to make the video

[@mattmccloskey8102]

25:20 is the best advice I've ever gotten from this channel, thanks man

[@Lildoc911]

Big booties ftw.

[@Yuenix]

Thanks alot brother :) I am glad youve taken the time to put together a serious and thorough video of honesty information and analysis. the serious explanation youve shown and expression of your truthful detailed explanation has got my respect brother :)

[@Raxxanterax]

My pleasure!

[@ra6o74]

Wow! This is the best Diablo 3 guide ever watched! Every single word you said teaches us! A really #1 video ! THANK YOU MAN

[@slaine6410]

Another amazing video, thanks so much Raxxanterax, best season ever for me at almost 1200 paragon previous best was only around seven hundred for the full season, because i dint know the game mechanics and was playing bounties all the time, LOL anyway it's great to see someone take time out to support and educate the community thanks

[@AstrumAnimal]

Thank you. Very detailed and informative. Good job !

[@peterabbiss3868]

Hi Raxx. I know this is an old video, but just want to say thank you so much for this and your season 28 content.. I am a very casual player but I always try to do the best in all games that I play.. I am running a goblin blaster DH and having so much fun in S28. This guide and your augmenting guide has really helped me get my first 120 clear last night.. I am so happy. Thanks again for all your wonderfully put together guides..

[@aroyals339]

Thanks buddy, this came at a perfect time. I have always thought pushing to be complicated, frustrating and not worth the extra trouble (mainly the gathering & randomness) and being happy to lvl and augment my gems to 110-115 but now it's time to try something new this guide + seasonal buff + whirlrend seems like perfect timing

[@JohnnyTightIips]

Excellent guide, learned so much and can't wait to put this into action tonight.

[@TheVileintent]

wow dude, this helped me a ton. thank you for your dedication and willingness to share.

[@OnepieceofRivia]

Discovered your videos 5 years too late but man...these are some of the best tips I’ve gotten in my playing. Subscribed!

[@Raxxanterax]

Appreciate that my friend! I only started my channel a year ago so you came at the right time!

[@jermelrandolph5648]

I learned a ton of things wasn't sure about. I watched another video about LOD Monk Speed Build. It took awhile but I got lucky early on, I even got a random drop on the Pants(Swamp LW). I just solo with that and this was the best D3 video on KZbin. You are a good person and that makes it easy to listen to you. Thanks

[@Raxxanterax]

Appreciate that Jermel very much

[@Bamfviola666]

Watched it all just for supporting u, and also to help me understanding a few parts a bit better :) ive been in the diablo game since d1 but never been one of the top players, mostly enjoying the game, and just having fun :) but over the last 2-3 seasons ive been trying to be better, trying to understand the game more and its mechanics, i know its not much but i have done a GR 112 this season, and its my highest ever! by far xD but i have u to thx for guiding me to where i am now :) so thx alot for being such a great guy :) truely one of my fav youtubers out there... keep up the good work and u got my support thats for sure man :)

[@Raxxanterax]

Very happy for you my friend, congrats on the new record!

[@jeffreyruth7881]

Amazing information your videos have pushed me up in all aspects of the game, especially gear farming, in one week vs the last year of playing blindly

[@wesleybortolozo5518]

What an amazing overview, true godly content.

[@dejonger1963]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge, learned more from this video, then I thought possible. My gratitude also for the effort you must have put into this video👍🏼

[@chupacabra602]

This is the best content of Diablo 3 I have seen so far and I have seen a lot. I truly appreciate your dedication towards making this video. Well done.

[@hazardes4657]

Awesome video! Thank you so much! Returning diablo 3 player and a bit lost at new content. This cleared up alot of things and explained the new meta which helps alot!

[@WildFayah]

Thank you for making this, as someone who plays mostly solo I never really understood the meta groups or their nomenclature.

[@drazen4368]

Very complete guide and well explained. Nice work

[@AuntLou42]

This is great Rax! Thanks for everything you do!

[@thesavage2054]

Great video. It is videos like this that made me sub! Only suggestions would be that some of the text was a bit close to the edge of the screen and it was a bit hard to read all of the text and listen to you on some of the busy slides. However the amount of helpful information in this was fantastic as you go into details on some of the ares other people gloss over. This makes the video very helpful to people like me who have been playing casually for years but never got into pushing greater rifts. Keep up the good work.

[@Piercebelton]

Wow! So good! Thank you so much for making this.

[@virus2003]

This was fantastic. The pylon strategies were a completely new idea to me. I just always thought they were "random". Thanks for putting so much time into this and for bettering the community.

[@Sighyouredumb]

I almost never comment on anything, but you put so much effort into this that I had no choice. Thank you SO much for all that information. I greatly appreciate it, as I am sure everyone else who watched it does. Thanks again, and hope you're doing well.

[@JNB-us6qd]

Ty for all your vids, helps alot!!!

[@petrp5121]

I finally understood so many concepts, thanks to you! Season 23, here I come!

[@oru8612]

This is a really good video and it's very helpful thank you. Also I just want to say the audio quality on your intro makes me chuckle every time I watch one of your videos.

[@Raxxanterax]

I'll upgrade it one of these days

[@ninRAIDER]

Great video as usual!

[@shadak1ss]

This was absolutely fantastic, very clear and concise. Thank you for all the time and effort you put into this. Now when entering any GR I feel I have a lot more to think about. I learned so much from this so again a big big thank you for your effort and sharing your very desirable knowledge on the game and its mechanics.

[@Raxxanterax]

Appreciate the lovely comment my friend, hope it helps!
