Just for clarity, I don't think we've ever commented on the LP chance numbers from LETools. There was an infographic post a while back that made a statistics math mistake which made almost every number off. That was the post we commented on to be wrong.

Do you mean character portrait?

Hm, by total tiers you mean from t21 to t20 right? That could work for balancing yea.

What if the total affix tiers get thrown into a pool and reshuffled completely while reducing the total tier by 1? That would probably be too crazy and give you too easy access to t7 mods right? So t4/7/5/5 could become t1/7/7/6 with -1 to one of them.

I mean it's all hypothetical and we aren't doing any of these but yea, something like that as an additional cost.

It would have to be a rune, not a glyph and it would probably need to reduce the total tiers by 1 or something.

Any chance additional character slots are in the works, paid or otherwise? I ran out months ago and it wasn't enough for half of the characters/builds I had planned. Could be a good way to get some extra cash flow to fund development, too.

I'm trying

Serious question and it might seem silly but was there consideration for calling instead of cycles, call them epochs instead?

Yup, was one of the first things pitched but it just got confusing. "Are you going to play the latest epoch in Last Epoch?"

Soooooo this is awkward but you might as well hear it direct but....a while back we did sell a small portion of the company to a big company to get the funding we needed to finish the game. This is something we have posted publicly on our forums, discord, reddit, steam page and more so it's not exactly hidden. On the plus side, they haven't tried to change anything we are doing.

Thank god. This makes me extremely happy and I think I'm going to go and buy your game right now.

Very cool, I hope you have fun :)

And that's perfectly fine. As long as you guys keep it from becoming pay to win, I have no issue with that. Thanks for letting us know also :)

Awesome, have fun :)

I'm so glad you guys aren't hitting us with thousands of micro-transactions like most others are doing. It's so refreshing tbh...

Just so there aren't any unwelcome surprises later, we do have a strictly cosmetic only mtx shop with minipets, portals and fancy hats. More things to come but they won't be functional in any way, just cool looking.

Please give us the opportunity to change our mastery and speed leveling. I want to play with the characters you created but dont have time to level them up.

Class selection is an important part of your character's journey. Being able to reselect your class is not something we are interested in doing. We have no intention of adding a "D3 vault gold speed leveling" equivalent.

Will there be a battle pass? And if so will all characters be able to earn progress on it or just seasonal/ cycle characters. The one gripe I have with Diablo 4 at the moment as a full time working dad is I want to be able to progress a battle pass but just want to do it on one character.

No.

No sarcasm here lol. Im just comparing it to other subreddits, where, as many opinions as users lol. And 99% of them complete nonsense. Here we have official answer, which is nice. I wish more devs did this kind of things.

Cool beans, thanks :)

Such a bless having an actual dev here who’s answering most important questions, instead of making rumors by users.

Just because I'm terrible at sarcasm, I have to double check, are there other questions that I'm missing?

Have you tried enabling steamer mode with quality settings you think are appropriate?

Yeah it sucks. But apparently it's a thing. Either join in on the fun and new content and start again and again and again.. . Or say f*** it like I do and miss out and level a new char when YOU want to! I always saw it as a cheap way to keep you occupied without devs really putting to much effort into the game. SEASONS!

Please see the stickied comment I just left for full real details.

We will not wipe your characters.

We are using a seasonal ladder system. We are calling them cycles. When a cycle ends, all characters get transitioned to Legacy. This is effectively where all current characters are now. When 1.0 launches in February, we will start a new cycle ladder and people can choose to create a cycle character or a legacy character.

Those that are opposed to a system like this are usually concerned about the new content only being available to new characters. This is not the case. You will be able to use the item factions, use the new masteries and engage will all the new 1.0 content on legacy characters in February. We do not plan to maintain two gameplay environments.

We plan to continue to include the updates to the game in the legacy environment at the same time. This is because the major features we have planned for the first few big patches are things we consider very important to the game. It is possible that we might start to e...

Stashes (and crafting materials / gold) are shared cross characters of like game modes. To determine if two characters share a stash, they must select the same option from every one of these 3 categories.

HC/SC

Normal/Solo Account found

Cycle/Legacy

So all of your SC, normal, legacy characters (the current default) will share a stash.
