I got in about a week ago as well, but since I knew I wasn't going to play much for a few days I waited until after the wipe. I wasn't able to do a decent session until yesterday, where I covered Acts 2 and 3 and up to Highgate.
The jewels certainly are interesting. I've only got 3 so far, but am looking forward to testing more of them. I'm hopefully anticipating that the next wipe will coincide with lockstep mode, so I'm playing a +movement speed whirling blades/viper strike shadow to remind myself just how bad desync can be before it gets replaced. Then I intend to do the same build again afterwards and rejoice in how awesome it has become. I've also gone for high crit chance, and am using lighning tendrils to stack shock on enemies to soften them up before engaging them in melee.
