Blue, how long for a SET is reasonable?(1)Category: GeneralMay-6-2014 7:00 AM PDT (9 years ago) Go to Blizzard forum post
Blue, i ask you this simple question :

How long do you think it is reasonable to get a full class specific set?

(what I call "end game items" plus the very rare OP items like Calamity, Wand of Woh etc...)

I did 800 rifts, yes 800, playing every single day since 2.0 probably more than 8h/day. At the moment, I didn't even complete one single set. Half of the few items that I got for sets come from friends. I don't even have 4 pieces.

I plaid mostly DH, i'was stuck at the very same level for 3 weeks, then I switched to WD, I'm stuck at the very same level for more than 10 days. No set nothing.
Farming T3 to T5 in fast team, friends (which are less and less) and class team (all DH or recently ALL WD). Still nothing;

So, BLUE give me an idea of what time I should spend on , excuse me to recall you , what was once called "a game", something that should be FUN (which seems totally out of your D3 specifications)

No matter how long you play, you are not guaranteed a legendary / set item to drop.


Very much this! I'm not trying to be patronising when saying this, so please forgive me if I come across like that, but such is the nature of Diablo games—by playing the game you have a chance at acquiring the loot you are looking for, but it will never be possible to guarantee that you will get it. Because of this, it is also not possible for me or anyone else to say how much time it will take for you to get the item you are looking for, and whether or not said time is within reasonable.

whats the purpose of cache dropping torment legs then ?


The purpose is to increase your chances of getting legendary items, and by extension give you an additional chance to get a particular item that you might be looking for. That of course still does not guarantee that you will get said item, but your chances will be improved.

This is certainly a hot topic that quite a few people have some strong opinions on, which is perfectly fine of course, and I want you guys to know that your feedback is truly appreciated regardless of how you feel about this topic.

There has been some heated discussion in this thread for sure, and that is to be expected in a discussion with so many strong as well as opposing opinions, but I would just like to remind everyone to please remain civil when sharing your opinions and discussing with others, especially so if you are disagreeing with someone else's opinion.

Constructive criticism is super useful to us, and letting us know why you agree or disagree with something is helpful as well, but please refrain from resorting to personal attacks and insults in your argumentation as these will not help you get your point across.

Now that has been said; I will keep following this thread, so please keep posting your feedback :-)
