Diablo 3 RoS: LEGENDARY GEMS First Look [Patch 2.1 PTR Greater Rifts Rewards]

[@darekcharlet9214]

Hey Ziggy, when I first started playing path of exile, I watched your POE survival guide and loved it! it helped so much and without your guides I probably would have just gotten frustrated with the game and quit. I just bought Diablo 3 and Reaper of Souls and I was disappointed to find you didnt have a survival guide-type series for diablo 3. I think it would be really AWESOME if you could consider doing a playthrough with a new character and teaching us newbies about the game. Maybe you would even have some things to teach more experienced players too!

[@ZiggyDGaming]

I've thought about doing a survival guide series for D3 but I felt like it didn't really fit the style of the game so well. But a series of primer videos could be good. I'll have a think on it - could be something I do with the next expansion maybe!

[@MassDynamic]

dude, that last leg gem is insane! any build using a wide primary will rock

[@heynando]

Everything looks very nice.. thanks for uploading it fast mate!

[@Bawheidbob]

Very nice - Looking forward to start playing D3 'properly' when new patch comes out.

[@SophieDissociates]

simplicity's strength will be soo good for my mirrorball fire wizard, cant wait!

[@moonmooncross]

The new gem you got, wow, GG to MM wiz, 100% pants+50%gem+MM damage

[@lansingdave]

Bane of the trapped bis for melee demon hunters? :D

[@gsdl28835]

The taguk one you used is mainly for monk

[@amfitness5598]

If u happen to find the new depth diggers, please make a vid showcasing the depth diggers, the legendary gem that gives 50% dam to generators. That could potentially be 150% more dam to generators (not counting enchanting some gear slots to boost the DPS even higher).

[@ZiggyDGaming]

I think I have both already, if they fix the legendary gem bug I'll give it a look :)

Diablo 3 RoS: LEGENDARY GEMS First Look [Patch 2.1 PTR Greater Rifts Rewards]

[@QwertyCharlieFourate]

D3 seems to be taking a lot out of Median XL's book, it is getting quite interesting :)

[@SangoProductions213]

1:30 am....why are you still up?

[@kickit246]

Weird, I did a few greater rift runs as well and I got those exact same legendary gems in that exact same order/way. Those first 2 in my first run, along with 2 legendaries, then the green gem in my second rift. Also, I tried the Bane of the Powerful gem and it didn't proc at all for me. :( Not a huge fan of only running into Urshi when you can't possibly go any further. I think she should be a little more accessible. Also were you not able to attempt at upgrading your other gems after that one failed one? The new update is pretty fun. A significant improvement from the earlier 2.1. Anyway, thanks for the video! Keep up the great work.

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Nah you get one shot at upgrading 1 gem. I think getting the gems is the easy part but upgrading them will be the hard part.

[@colahayun90]

Think it means that you have to clear rank 50 to upgrade. Doesnt it?

[@platfiend]

Hey Ziggy, I see you're using 2H and quiver. Is this a thing in 2.1? Or is it beneficient to your current build? If you already clarified this on the stream, I'm sorry, but I'm not able to watch it in Germany (timezones and stuff).

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Just good for the marauders pet-sentry build im using. 2x1Hers are still better in general (danettas, nats+calamity are amazing).

[@platfiend]

Thanks for the insight, might as well keep a few 2H and quivers ready for when I complete my Marauders (not that I'm anywhere near completion tho). On a side note, I'm looking forward to a possible guide on the pet-sentry spec!

[@thealcatrazzer95]

ziggy? (or anyone else :p) do you know if these greater rifts along with the legendary gems will be on the console release? as a console gamer (my pc sucks) and diablo fan i had to get my D3 on my 360 and i would really like to see these things on the console aswell but I haven't seen any posts that say they will. Also love all of your vids keep it up :)

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Haven't heard anything about it. Depends on how far along they are in dev for the console version. There's a chance it wont be though as the two games often end up having a fair difference in features. If it's anything like the D3V console it'll be quite good still :)

[@thealcatrazzer95]

well damn, was hoping to get all the good stuff aswell :') but yeah i think it'll be great anyway :) and thanks for replying^^

[@platfiend]

The upcoming Ultimate Evil Edition ships with RoS up to patch 2.0.6 and I'm also sure 2.1 will be made available as soon as it hits for the PC version.

[@thealcatrazzer95]

ok that sounds nice :) ty

[@krikon456]

How do you get them? They randomly drop from greater rifts or? When do they start dropping? Doubt they drop at lvl 1-10?

[@ZiggyDGaming]

They drop from the greater rift bosses as seen in the video.

[@GwLostKing]

i hope there well do somthing with the legendary drop realy i cant find a dam thing -.- only after 2-6 hour oO

[@Ben-kv9gi]

they've buffed it twice already previously i believe. No problems here, farming T3 rifts and constantly finding at least 3 legendaries per rift. Don't know what difficulty you're farming though.

[@GwLostKing]

t3-4 so dont know where the fuck you get them from LOL oO

[@KuberaFTW]

any one know what the drop raye of greater rift keystones is? ive done 6 rifts and still aint got one.........

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Havent heard on any specific drop rates but it seems to scale with difficulty. I couldnt get any to drop below T1.

[@KuberaFTW]

ZiggyD Gaming thx ill keep trying then

[@Tsunat3z]

totallymageful Are you sure its not higher?

[@SIowpoke]

why didnt you try to upgrade other gems

[@ZiggyDGaming]

You only get one shot as far as I could tell.

[@ripclips]

10% increased damage? Sounds "legendary."

[@delgado290690]

I just bought D3+RoS and so far im liking it. Well im still a little bitter about how easy it is to swap skills(albeit only out of combat or with no enemies around), but gameplay is solid, graphics are good so time to crush Diablo...again...christ cant someone kill him for good >:/ These gems look very interesting to the noob eye and such if i get my hands on one HALELLUJAH!!!

Thanks for the quick responses guys, I don't know why I wrote access, meant to say release. In any case, it's very helpful of you guys.

[@seanjones7822]

I don't know all that much about Diablo three man, but Ziggy's videos keep me here. I did assume there wasn't a subscription though.

Even the gem upgrade process is a slot machine? Really? This is stupid
