@Meteorblade why LOD instead of Cain’s+Born’s set for the leveling gear? The damage should be enough for T6.
LoD doesn’t just provide 13 * 750% damage (9,750% damage) but also 13 * 4% damage mitigation (52% damage mitigation), which ensures survivability at T6. I previously tested with all the +XP sets. Whilst they do provide more +XP they don’t provide as much damage / mitigation, so the levelling can’t be done at T6. Losing some +XP per kill is offset by the higher game difficulty, which gives a much higher XP multiplier.
I just tested in a T6 cow level with a crusader.
My gear was both Cain’s sets, Born’s, a barb Hellfire amulet, Hellfire ring, Leoric’s Signet, Furnace, Goldwrap and Custerian Wrist Guards. Gems were topazes on armor and ruby on helmet, L50 BotH, L50 BotP, L100 Gizzard and L100 GoE. Cubed RoRG, Leoric’s Crown and Messesrschmidt’s.
I was able to level to 70 in roughly 6 minutes and only stopped once to change skills. Toughness wasn’t an issue with BotH + Goldwrap combo.
congrats… one one!
