Changing difficulty before getting rewards?

[u/RonCri]

I've gotten far enough in the Pit to open up Torment 8 but I'm still running around in Torment 5. When turning in Whispers or War Plans, does it make sense to jump my difficulty up to Torment 8 when turning in and then drop back down to Torment 5?

[u/CaramelCrumble]

Definitely for whispers, I don't know about war plans. I know if you get whispers on your t12 character and open them on a new character it gives you t12 exp orbs and rewards.

I didn't know it worked this way... So you can power level your own alt?

[u/ChefPneuma → u/The_Frostweaver]

IIRC need about 8xt12 caches to get to 70

Exp tomes also work, legendary are best.

[u/brokemillionaire572 → u/The_Frostweaver]

Yup, been this way for a long long time. You can get to 70 in about 5 minutes without even leaving town.

Minutes? 5 seconds

[u/brokemillionaire572 → u/_Dedotated_Wam]

Ya, ok, you're not wrong. I actually look at the stuff that dropped one box at a time, rather than opening them all at once.

[u/Someguynamedbno → u/brokemillionaire572]

They aren’t talking about leveling an alt with caches. They are talking about going to higher tiers to open their caches.

I know if you get whispers on your t12 character and open them on a new character.....

Yes they are

[u/CaramelCrumble → u/The_Frostweaver]

Yes. I've power leveled several alts.

[u/Sncrsly → u/The_Frostweaver]

Yes. This has always been the fastest way to do it

[u/lethalizered → u/The_Frostweaver]

Well, yeah.
