[user guide] HOW TO SQUEEZE EXTRA PARAGON LEVELS

Hi
I am making this thread to help people new to DB to help optimise their XP gained per hour. Some or all of this post may appear obvious to you, but not everyone is as clever as you. Also, I have not seen a guide as explicit as this elsewhere. Experienced DB Runners, please post your personal tweaks that helped boost their xp.

Our experience to help you gain faster paragon levels:

1) Use 31% ruby on helm, Hellfire and Leoric ring if u can afford one.

2) Set gold pickup 100-300 range (up to the discretion of user). We ain't no poor group o' peasant farmers ye?

3) Set Items pickup to only lvl63 weap, lvl58+ Jewels (optional), Legendaries. Ignore the little peanuts and clutter like everything else like potions, gems, tomes, follower and recipes. this tweak makes a significant difference.

4) Aim to getting solid stats. A small gold investment on your gear can go along way. We recommend hitting at least 70k dps, 400+ AR, 30k+ HP, 5000 Armor.

5) Plan your gear to get at least 24% run speed. Examples: Lacunis (12%), Tyraels (12%), Innas pants (12%), all legendary boots (except for Iceclimbers). I find that Lacuins + Innas works well on a Barbarian.

6) Add some pickup radius to your gear, so that your character doesn't backtrack to pickup gold and health globes.

7)Start with Monster Power 0. Change to a higher Monster Power when you begin outgearing the enemies. You will know this has happened when you one-shot kill most mobs.

8) Get the enchanter follower. She's hot. Also, with a good skorn and gear, dont under estimate this part...she can kill onsight lots of while mobs if well geared.
  • Also about followers, the hellfire ring and leorics on FOLLOWER gives you about 13% exp boost



I hope this can be useful to everyone. Please post your experiences on this thread if they vary, or are the same.
Thank you

Well a "full retard" way would be to not even pick up anything :p
 
I've been leveling paragon in a3 mp1 with 31% head gem and hellfire ring, minimum gold pile 250 - resulted in 30-35m/h only picking up 63/62 yellow items. and about 500k GPH
 
i agree i only pick up 300+ gold. even thinking about raising it.
 
My 8 XP based Rules :)

1) Use 31% ruby on helm, Hellfire and Leoric ring if u can afford them
2) Set gold pickup 250-300 range
3) Set Items pickup to only lvl63 weap, lvl58+ Jewels (optional), Legendaries. Ignore everything else including pots, gems, tomes, follower and recipes.
4) Get to at least 100k dps (20-30m gear for most of classes), less is just not effective. Cheap Skorn helps on farming!
5) Make sure you have 2 x +12% speed in your gear
6) Optimize you skills to speed up
7) If you kill MPx as fast as MP0, then go MPx otherwise scale down until u get the same kill rate as if u were doing MP0.
8) Get the enchanter follower with a good skorn and gear, dont under estimate this part...she can kill onsight lots of while mobs if well geared.

If you have all of them checked, u know you are doing everything possible to get the best XP/h!
Hope it helps

How much exp/hr do you usually get with that setup?
 
How much exp/hr do you usually get with that setup?

It does depend on the class, dps and Mp u choose.
usually Barb between 35-45m/h mp2
but I guess my best achievement was a Wiz 150kdps at 32M XP/h on mp0
 
I'm curious what profile do u guys run? I'm just doing the start here for the a3 champ hunt.

And when u set gold pickup 90 or 250 u mean range or gold pick, cause mine is set at 2500? does that mean i'm picking it up only if it's over 2000? But with 30 pickup radius i usually pick up everything anyways. Is there a way to make it not pick up gold?

i'm at 28-29mil. Although i'm not using leorics? And only in skycrown sometimes i see the xp go as low as 22.
 
hellfire ring and leorics on FOLLOWER gives you about 13% exp boost
and run alk profile
 
I personall just use the profile i made due to extreem low lvling on others i was stuck at 15- 20 pargon after develop my run i have flew to 60 paragon in two weeks.

Dragonfliesx, has this been confirmed to add to our xp? I am just curious because it is the first time I have heard that.

Gnome, I dig your Alkaizer profile. It is my favourite so far. Could you share a little bit with us about the decisions you made when picking certain paths and areas to explore? Also, we'd love to hear the fixes and patches you have planned cormyour profile. cheers!

maybe i`m just bad at tweaking DB, but all the profiles i ran i noticed the bot loses a lot of time running the entire map after its open. and what settings should i use for trigger range for non-elite combat/container open range and destructible attack range?

thanks in advance!

Good question. This won't fully answer your question, because I am not sure myself, but I found this useful. Sliding the config toggle (Giles Trinity plugin) to the left (lower range) would will allow us to skip more random trash mobs and random chests. I would also untick the extend trash-kill range after combat. Finally, untick allow backtracking after combat.
 
thanks for your help i will try those, but allow backtracking after combat was never on, thats what bothers me :s
