Each bounty 4 man run in random group takes about 10 minutes +/- and each box drops about 90-95 blue and white materials and around 35-45 green materials each box and 22 bounty specific materials, also each box. So u can get around 6 times 5 boxes per hour. Meaning, 132 special bounty materials(each box), around 540+ blue and 540+ white materials and around 210+ green materials pec hour.

Small addition to the "shoulders then pants" rule of thumb for set convert gambling: - For Barb, it's always the best to gamble pants - WD, when gambling for Zunimassa, wants to gamble boots instead of pants

[@jkoenig2677]

Love this kind of stuff GG

[@robsonwaterkemper]

About the convert set item recipe, the odds of getting a different set item from the ones you already have gets diminishing returns when you start to have your first set complete. When you get your first duplicate it's 5/5 (100%) to get a different piece and have 2 piece bonus. The third piece is a 4/5 chance (80%). The Fourth piece is (3/5) which is 60% chance of getting the right different piece. After that is better to gamble on Kadala the item you want rather than rolling Shoulders, pants or boots and then converting for another item of the set in the cube.

i got a tip for getting veiled crystals, you can craft rings or amulets at the jewler and then salvage them they cost 2 gems to craft and no other materials so you pretty much convert 2 gems to 1 veiled crystal

[@zebedeesummers4413]

They offer max roll, this video tell you what items in what order. Their gearing guide for each build tells you what stat to go for first in a very intuitive way. I highely recommend looking at the "Item stat priorities." With this video you have the perfect pairing. The only complexity remaining is when an item is good enough to focus on another part of your build and come back later. Generally you focus on the first half of the prio list then only care about what you are lacking (vit, all res...)

[@MaxxxMaxMaxx]

small addition:(this took me way to long to realize, years ago) pick up white items!, they salvage for WAY more parts than yellows and since it's a 1:1 ratio when you convert mats in the cube, picking up white items is actually SUPER good regardless of what material you want. So pick up those white items my dudes! For too long i didn't read how much you got per salvaged item, i always just thought it was 1 material per salvage regardless of color.

[@ASavageEye]

Yeah I was gonna say this too. If you salvage a rare item you only get 1 yellow material but if you salvage a white item you get 10 white materials which you can just convert into 10 yellow/blue depending on what you need most. Actually the ability to convert materials in the cube is something I only recently became aware of. I never even looked at those recipes properly before because nobody ever talked about them in any videos lol

[@Darksphere101]

And to add to this, there's a whole room full of them in Leoric's manor that you can speed run.

[@ASavageEye]

@@Darksphere101 True, there are a LOT of white item racks in the Manor in general. There are a few good places to mine white items but the Manor is one of the bets for sure.

[@kalonsamulonis5782]

well said

[@Ravenjim93]

Hey there, id like to ask since I noticed this in your vid as well as almost every build, why are captain crimson pants preferred over captain crimson boots? It seems much easier to roll proper boots than pants with two sockets/ancient and proper stats

[@eddsson]

Yes! Exactly this. Makes no sense to me, we might be missing something perhaps? I've seen a couple completely scuffed ancients wasted because of having no or one socket on the pants.

[@salamanje]

Because other items that make up the sets occupy other spots

[@Ravenjim93]

@@salamanje ??? Nearly all sets have boots and pants so i dont get your point at all

[@salamanje]

@@eddsson for example in tal rasha build boots is very important for dmg (nilfur) so you cant trade it with crimson. So you gotta wear it. That means you cant wear tal rasha boots. It all depends on the build really but i reckon all builds must have a MUST item that causes things to end up like that.

[@eddsson]

@@salamanje Yeah agreed, there's places where there's no alternative. But for the one's that can chose, it makes a whole lot more sense to craft boots, no? Exceptions there as well, some boots might have natural rolls that's more sought after but again, if all things are equal, boots is the safer craft.

[@chewtime5836]

I'm really curious what happens to the sanctified pieces when the season is over. Do they completely disappear or do they become regular primals? Even though I don't usually play non seasonal characters that much it would be a nice way to deck out one of your non seasonal characters with a full set of primal gear

[@sebk1e]

Completely disappear

[@sunnyboy8644]

they would disappear just like the Ethereal weapons in Season 25.

[@Xown3dX74]

Its diablo 3 man they always make good things disappear

[@ASavageEye]

Yeah they vanish. thats why I have been telling my mates to only use the Crucibles on crappy versions of items that drop. if you pick up a good Ancient item you should keep it for your non seasonal character. I watched a moron use a crucible on a Primal Dawn last week and had to pick my jaw up off the floor. I abused him to no end for 2 days straight. Some people just need a good slap every now and then.

[@shlomogoldstein3373]

Damn brah you sound hard as fuck

[@waynetec13]

Is it better to sanctify offhand as opposed to weapon? It didn't seem to make a huge difference to me, so I used my crucible to get a good Karlei.

[@zebedeesummers4413]

not always massive if you already had a good quiver. It is much easier to get a primal point than it is to get a well rolled ancient quiver. So most of the time it is simply much more effecient to get the dagger from upgrading dagger than it is to use your only crafted primal on it. to be clear, if your quiver is already a GG item, you might aswell use sanct on point anyway.

[@Sintho]

i hate doing bounties. i hope next season will be bounty material related or always double reward from caches

[@ChristofferFlensburg]

First, dont think anyone enjoys bounties, and imo the game would be better off if they just removed them from the game entirely. it would kill bounty-botting, and it'd be a buff for low-paragon players that often spend way too much time running bounties when they should be running GRs. But apart from the first few runs for your rorg and avarice, you don't really need to do them. You can target your weak slots pretty well with upgrading rares and gambling, and at low paragon you want to focus on just running speed GRs for paragon anyway. It's only really once you get to like 3k+ paragon and have close to perfect gear in most slots that bounties become a really good option to max out your last pieces. And of course, this season bounties are even less important, as you can target your weakest slot with the season theme anyway. So unless you want to compete at top 10 of leaderboards, imo, bounties are entirely optional.

[@OMIMreacts]

your hopes have been answered :)

[@Jefquu]

How to get gears that has the right main stats for followers?

[@BCzepa]

im playing non seasonal. is it possible to get essence of anguish? or has it been removed from the game?

[@rmarroq]

Death breathes are so easy to get, its the veiled and reusable parts that are such a pain...im always low. Yes i can use kanais to interchange them but when youre low on all its hard to do.

[@Darksphere101]

You can get reusable in Leoric's Manor. There's a room full of them you can speed run to over and over.

[@MinecraftersVL]

Just got Kariel's Point primal with damage and cdr after 28 tries

[@brandonwoodhouse358]

So when gaming set pieces are drop rates just better for shoulders and pants than anything else? Then just convert them in the cube?

[@sebk1e]

Shoulders have lowest amounts of legendaries (counting sets in) for most classes, meaning that you have the best chance of hitting the set you're searching for, with pants being next in line (for when you're trying to collect set without shoulders). There are two exceptions from that tho: on barb you always want to gamble pants, since it has shoulders pool "polluted" by two more legendary shoulders, while on WD, when looking for Zuni, you gamble boots over pants, since WD has additional legendary pants in pool. Yes, the whole idea is to get 6 set pieces as fast as possible and then convert them to matching slots using cube.

[@beltnapierdalator]

I was hoping to find out how exactly re rolling works or upgrading rare items. For example when i upgrade like 20 items and then close the game without saving, and start the game again, upgrading those same items will yield the same results in exact same order. I've noticed crafting is randomised and i get different results after reloading the game. How gambling with Kadala and re forging works? Are all my results set somehow?

[@DolphinWantsPeace]

What do you mean close the game without saving? It saves automatically pretty much every second

[@beltnapierdalator]

@@DolphinWantsPeace not on PlayStation. I can use materials for crafting like 50 items and if i don't quit the game in game menu but close the game instead, when i start to play again i have all the materials back. This is how i know some items are just set to appear cause I'll have exactly the same items by upgrading rare items for example.

for your follower you should have her wearing the Broken Helm (whenever a gem drop, the same type socketed gem into your helmet also drop) and use the cain's pants instead. BTW, how important for Impale damage on helm? afaik, skill damage is additive damage so 15% isn't that much on top of the taeguk and zei or even less if you're in party with zdps buff/debuff. the alternative of the Impale damage is 1k vit, it's a lot of toughness. The Impale damage on feet is no brainer tho as the alternative is maybe 12% movement speed (= 120 dex) or 800 amour.
