Get your first glimpse at sweeping changes coming to Diablo IV. On March 20, at 11 a.m. PDT, join community director Adam Fletcher, associate game designer Charles Dunn, lead live class designer Adam Jackson, and associate game director Joe Piepiora as they detail the massive itemization changes coming to Season 4. We’ll discuss how Affixes, item stats, the Codex of Power, and new in-game systems will change the way you slay and loot across both Seasonal and Eternal Realms. Additionally, there’ll be much more to share in the Campfire Chat for your first look at Season 4!
We’ll also detail how to access our first Public Test Realm (PTR) in Diablo IV, available to PC BattleNet users. This PTR allows you to get your first taste of the changes coming in Season 4. During the PTR, we’ll listen closely to your feedback to make adjustments before the Season arrives for all.
We’ll also hold a Q&A segment at the end of the stream for players to field their questions d...
Read moreRise, wanderer. Starting on March 19, sealing your legacy in the absolute highest spot of each Ladder will earn you the ultimate spoil of war. Until April 2, if you secure the absolute top spot of any Ladder and are eligible for entry within the Official Rules, you’ll receive a personalized, custom autographed poster from the incredible Micah Ulrich.
There will be two full weekly rotations of the Gauntlet to cement yourself as a Leaderboard Legend. Only true masters who stand at the top of the...
Read moreJust want to note that no existing items have had price increases.
The product team though has been hearing the feedback and it may take a little bit but there will be some more discounted items available in the coming weeks/months and we have some changes to announce regarding some other items like the Portal Pack here soon.
This is 1.3.4 - You can find the patch notes on the patch notes page.
PTR will be in the coming weeks and we will have a stream next week to talk more about it. Details on that soon.
New one kicks in at 11:15am PDT. Last week it was 10:15am PST but we had a daylight savings time hit over the weekend so hours are shifted accordingly.
We have a list of a few known issues in 1.3.3 for Gauntlet that will be addressed in a future patch in the coming week.
Leaderboard filtering amongst ‘Friends’ on Solo can lead to a blank or empty page.
Leaderboard filtering amongst ‘Clans’ or ‘Friends’ can lead to a single entry only.
We want to make sure players know that these are not working correctly, and will be addressed shortly.
The Trials call you forth, wanderer. Fight to earn your place on the Leaderboards when they arrive on March 5. Each week you can master a new Gauntlet: a fixed non-linear Dungeon that will have you fighting to earn the mightiest score. Who will fight to dominate the competition, earn coveted Seals, and carve their place on the Leaderboards. Do you have what it takes to become undeniable?
With the upcoming midseason patch, there will be impactful class balance changes and Seneschal Companion updates coming in the patch that introduces this challenge dungeon, so we will be actively monitoring feedback to make tweaks with the Gauntlet in mind. To read more on the upcoming changes, please read our ...
Read moreOn February 29, we held a Campfire Chat showcasing the Gauntlet: a fixed-layout endgame dungeon coming on March 5. Community director Adam Fletcher, associate game director Joe Piepiora, and lead live class designer Adam Jackson sat down to discuss our mid-season update for Season of the Construct.
This update brings many class balance updates and the return of a few updated vampiric powers from Season of Blood. Vampiric Powers return as Legendary Aspects that have a chance to drop from all enemies in Sanctuary.

The Gauntlet will be a permanent addition to the Seasonal Realm
That will be coming as we move closer to Season 4, but is not the focus for this particular event.

Read moreUnfortunately, I can’t post dates or times before those announcements are released. I can tell you that yes, a campfire chat is coming up, and it won’t be a long wait.
Yes, news on our next campfire is coming soon!
The blog posts are what populate to the forums, so when the announcement blog hits it will come through. I pin them when they’re posted, but I’d be happy to start making them global pins instead of General Discussion ones.
Broadly speaking, we aren’t able to post to every thread, so to post to only some feedback threads would be viewed as endorsement of the contents, and in many cases, would fuel rumors that changes, ideas, etc. were being implemented when they may not be. We do read and report on the content of forum threads regularly, and that information goes to the team.
