On March 26, wanderers can conqueror the horrors of Hell with a suite of new graphical enhancements available to them with patch 1.3.5. Arriving alongside our next content update, Sanctuary will be further imbued with the luscious shadows and enhanced reflections of ray tracing, plus other visual enhancements.

Meant to reply to this earlier. Had the tab open!

Stored Aspects will be moved to the Codex of Power for your Eternal character seamlessly when the season ends. It will take the highest of each Aspect that you may have collected into the new Codex.

So, let’s say you have an Aspect in your stash on your Eternal character and Season 4 begins, the Aspect will be automatically added to your codex and Aspect item will be destroyed.

But let’s say you had a max roll of that same Aspect from your season 4 character’s stash, it will then seamlessly replace your lower roll Aspect in Eternal and forever be in your Eternal codex that way.

Just a small caveat is that this happens automatically for anything in your account stash when the season transition occurs. If you have them in a specific alt character’s inventory, you will need to just hop on them after the Season rollover and those will then seamlessly move to the Codex as well.

The seasonal codex does r...

For some added context, the way it works is that there will be two options now. One is a Standard zoomed feature which is how it is presently in the game. The other will be a Far feature which is what some noticed yesterday.

Some platforms like PC (but not Steam Deck) will default to the Far zoomed out feature. There will be a new option in the menu to change this to Standard as well. Steam Deck can also change it, but I just want to note their default is the Standard zoom.

Consoles will also have these two options as well.

The team did some extra checks on performance for this as this does increase draw distance and add some more things on the screen. If players experience any performance related items during PTR, please let us know in the PTR forums when those open up. It is important for us to make sure we get that in.

Everything presented in the stream yesterday will be both eternal and seasonal.

This is something the team is aware of and the plan is to offer some glyph XP bumps in Season 4 so they do progress faster for players.

This wont be present in the PTR just because we are also giving everyone boosted glyphs but expect to see this when S4 starts.

Greetings Heroes,

Welcome to Diablo IV PTR Bug Report Forums! To get started on this forum, please read through this guide as it explains some Do’s and Don’t’s for bug testing and reporting.

That will be much closer to the expansion release. We generally try to do them within a couple weeks of the content coming out, depending on the situation.

Ahead of tomorrow’s Q&A, we’d like to invite players to share questions they would like to see answered during the Q&A portion of the stream. While we won’t be able to address them all, and will still be pulling them from Twitch chat as well, we do source questions here as well. Going forward, we intend to create a thread like this ahead of each livestream so that questions can be more easily compiled. Just a few points:

  • Troll/spam posts will be removed

  • Please only post once per person, and make edits to your post as needed if you choose to add more. This will make it more efficient for us to grab questions.

  • This thread is not intended for feedback posts, please continue to post those in your own topics as normal

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...

Just 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 ...
