Hey everyone!

Im thinking to start playing D4, but i only played D2 and D2R. I see that people is selling gold, is that the new "runes"? - So basically people buy by using coins or how does it work ingame?

And what is the best class to start with, so i can start farming. Like in D2 / D2R is good to start with sorc cuz of the gear is "cheaper" than hammerdin

Can you share me your experience by giving me the best start in this game? :)

I am interested in starting with a character, that i can farm and build my self up from there.

Thanks :)

1. The universal currency is ingame gold. You can hold up to 100 billions per account.
2. Runes are a bit different in D4. Look up the function of runes on maxroll.org.
3. The best class right is the spiritborn from the expansion. The build is called orange quill. Coincidentally, it is the leveling and farming build at the same time. For speed running with highend equipment, crushing hand and evade eagle 3.0 are preferable.

I would say your reference to D2 doesn't really work here - you will find out it when you start playing, because of ingame system called "smart loot".

Basically, just play the game and in short amount of time you will be packed with good items for your class, because system "tunes" drops exactly for your character, based on different factors.

Not really, necro can get daggers, one hand swords, two hand swords, one and two hand maces. Multiple classes can use those. Shako and Heir of Perdition are universally useful on any class.

Just fire up a spirit burn. Use a quick volley build and you don’t even need to trade a thing. Just blast all content with ease. Farming isn’t really a thing on diablo 4.

Save a little money and a lot of time unless you really want to just explore D4. Each season you play for a week get full bis and its over. Story line was awful / no real good cinematics creation team for blizz or whoever runs this now has gone way down hill. Just a money grabber for their company living off an old games identity. They have no end game.. on D2 I could farm forever and it felt more accomplished then this game seeing tons of items but all useless.

I am a sucker and always buy Diablo games, but do what ya feel.

Made no sense when you said waste a lot of time and then next sentence it only takes a week to get full bis. Yes, game is awful for its price, hardly well designed at this point. But if people are new to d4. They will at least have fun for about 2 months when they try all the classes/builds out.

For me its wasting a lot of time. I don't just quit after getting bis.. still play. Season 5 I made every build each class, season 6 only did Spiritborn though. Nothing really to login to in end game d4 just to play for the hell of it randomly.
