Hello all -
The team was made aware of an issue where players were able to obtain a significant amount of experience while killing certain bosses with ‘The Umbracrux’ unique equipped.
We will be disabling the unique power for this weapon while we work on a fix for this. This means players will no longer be able to spawn a shade totem with this weapon. Players can still find this weapon and can technically still equip it, but they will not be able to utilize the unique power while we have this disabled.
Once we have a finalized fix, we will re-enable this and communicate this out to players.
Thanks for all the reports on this issue. We hope to have a final fix for this soon.

We are aware of the reports that new seasonal characters are having their tempering recipes carried over from their last seasons seasonal character.
This isn’t the original design or intention so I wouldn’t expect this for future seasons but we are letting this one slide for Season 5.

Read moreAn adaptive apex predator hailing from the jungles of Nahantu will soon join the fight against darkness. The Spiritborn is an entirely new class in the Diablo® series, that calls upon the unique strengths of Jaguar, Gorilla, Eagle, and Centipede Spirit Guardians to overcome any nightmare the Burning Hells throws their way. The Spiritborn class will be arriving on October 8 as part of the Vessel of Hatred™ expansion.
Spiritborn are versatile warriors who fuse devastating three-hit-combo attacks and acrobatic fluidity into a potent display of their ferocity. They are masters of hand-to-hand combat, doling out lethality at close range through the ability to extend their wrath with the aid of spirit energy and their favored demon-slaying implement, the glaive. Their physical prowess allows them to block or dodge incoming strikes, absorbing this power for themselves or redirecting it back at their aggressors.
