Diablo 4's Gauntlet Day 1: Barb and Rogue Rank 1 (HC)! Gauntlet's a blast! Got Barb at 77k, Rogue at 622. Gauntlet's a game-changer with Shrine buff strat. Surprisingly fun, fast-paced, even with gear not optimal. Strategy: respawn mobs, maximize Shrine buffs. Expect leaderboard tweaks, but for now, Gauntlet's a hit. 💥
In the exhilarating world of Diablo 4, the Gauntlet has recently gone live, and after approximately 7.5 hours of intense gameplay, I've managed to secure the rank one spots for both Barbarian and Rogue classes. Despite suboptimal gear, the experience has been surprisingly positive.
Engaging in the Gauntlet proved more enjoyable than anticipated. The fast-paced nature, particularly felt on the Rogue, added a thrilling dimension. Channeling Shrine effects, combined with a well-mapped path, created an immersive and dynamic gameplay experience.
"The lack of speed and density concerns raised by some players didn't deter from the intense, fast-paced action felt in the Gauntlet."
Exploring the leaderboard revealed a commendable build variety, especially for the Rogue class. From double swing builds to whirlwind tactics, the Gauntlet offers a surprising amount of flexibility near the top of the rankings.
For those venturing into the Gauntlet, a strategic approach is crucial. Utilizing Pillars of Proving for monster respawns and optimizing Shrine buff duration on gear significantly boosts scores. The route I've crafted focuses on key areas, maximizing efficiency and avoiding less rewarding sections.
Round | Path | Highlights |
---|---|---|
1 | Yellow | Clearing initial dungeons and preparing for respawns |
2 | Orange | Respawning monsters, tackling key bosses |
3 | Green | Further boss eliminations, optimizing routes |
4 | Blue | Finalizing key bosses and maximizing points |
5 | Final Path (Purple) | Last respawns, concluding with optimal boss kills |
Looking ahead, my end-of-week targets include reaching 800-850k score on Barbarian and 700-750k score on Rogue. Tweaks to the route are anticipated, and the community is likely to share additional strategies.
"The Gauntlet, though not for everyone, adds a layer of excitement for both competitive and casual players."
While the Gauntlet keeps me engaged, the impending PTR for Season 4 promises new adventures. Until then, the focus remains on optimizing Gauntlet runs and exploring Last Epoch. Share your Gauntlet experiences and strategies—I'm eager to hear your thoughts!
"As we dive deeper into the Gauntlet, may our scores rise, strategies evolve, and the Diablo 4 community flourish."
