Ren:

Still experiencing life invasions, still playing Diablo III (up to T11, level 50 GRifts)

Haven’t had much time to do anything else

Mike:

Hit the 500k mark

Started playing the warrior again - up to 17, but too early to tell if it’s a good fit because I can one-shot everything.

Why Icy Veins says to dump Defiled Augment Runes before patch 7.3

"Patch 7.3 comes adds a new faction called Army of the Light and at Exalted you can buy a new BoP rune that has the exact same stats as the old one (Lightforged Augment Rune). It seems it won't get consumed on use, so Defiled Augment Rune will be relevant only by the time players reach Exalted with the new faction. "
