Whispering keys are just for the random locked chests you find when exploring the world. I've generally found them to be okay-ish. I just keep 2 whispering keys on me at all times just in case. You run into those chests rarely though, so it is best to just buy the gear with the obols.
Also keep in mind that your main goal is to get to tier 4 as soon as possible by beating the capstone dungeon, I wouldn't worry too much about being a completionist about the side quests at tier 3. Best to save a few for Tier 4 anyways for the extra experience.
Oh interesting, what level or DPS do you think you need for that dungeon? I kind of thought I had to get geared to do it so I have been running quests and completing the area unlocks.
It depends on you class and build. On WW Barb, it was tough at 53 (I leveled out for way too long, and then scaling will bite you). On HotA Barb, I could have done it at 40 with room to spare.
It's meant to do at or before 50.
Oh you definitely need to be kitted up for it. It's crazy hard when you're under-geared. I went in as a level 56 wizard and got smacked by an elite with a big sword. I was just pointing out that you shouldn't be a completionist on world tier 3 thinking you need to do all of that to be ready. Better to leave some of the side quests alone and save them for world tier 4. Start going into the nightmare dungeons and doing helltide to level up faster. Plus, some of the nightmare dungeons end up overlapping with the side quests anyways, so you get two birds for one stone.
It depends on your character and build. On my WW Barb, it was tough. On a HotA Barb, it'd be easy. It's intended to be run from level 50 onwards.
I think I'm talking about the capstone dungeon to get to t4. I'm guessing I need to be closer to 70 and be geared for that
Yeah, especially solo. That bossfight.... Oooof.
I restarted for Season one and im taking it way less seriously. Just getting leveled and geared enough to party with Friends when they get on. Is kind of a bummer but I don't have the time or desire to grind
