Chapter 217 - Chen Mo’s Coaching Lesson
Lin Xue was happily playing the new ranked mode in the experience store.
The stream was titled ‘Crusader ranked climb’. There were many viewers with an incredibly active chat filled with discussion of the new competitive season.
Lin Xue was grinding Challenge Rifts as she interacted with chat.
“Why are there viewers asking me when I started playing again? As a player who loved Diablo, of course I started playing the expansion pack the first moment it was available?”
“Is the Crusader strong? From what I can tell, it’s alright, it’s not as good as Wizard or Warrior. Although I think I haven’t figured out how to play this class yet.”
“Is the new update fun? Incredibly fun! If the previous Diablo was a small slice of cake, looks delicious and tastes delicious, but you’d get sick of it after a few bites. But Diablo with the expansion pack is like a drug, you can’t stop at all!”
“Where’s Chen Mo? I don’t know either, but he’s probably in his office, so we probably won’t see him. Uh, not now, I’m in the middle of a Rift, I’ll go grab him after if I see him.”
Lin Xue was also a regular at the experience store because she could try Chen Mo’s newest games here. That’s why she’d visit the experience store every few days and were now quite close with Su Jinyu, Jia Peng, Zou Zhuo and the others.
First was the abilities, there weren’t any sustained damage sources, Steed Charge was basically just a utility skill, and Shield Glare was a controlling skill. Iron Skin and Akarat’s Champion were buffs, and Consecration is just a small AoE spell.
Out of the skills he picked, only Bombardment was a traditional damage dealing skill. However, it had a long cooldown, and it was completely luck dependent on how much damage it would do.
The equipment was even more shocking, Lin Xue only understood that The Wailing Host and Litany of the Undaunted set bonuses: While this is the only item Set Bonus the character has, their damage dealt is increased by 100% and damage taken is reduced by 4% for every Ancient Item they have equipped.
These two rings were the natural enemies of every other equipment as you couldn’t have any other set attributes with these two equipped. Chen Mo seemed to have decided on using various different equipment from different sets just to build around the rings.
But will this work?
Lin Xue is doubtful.
