i dont see getting pass week 1, this season theme is awful. what a worthless time to play this season. guess im gnna wait for new season, back to Lost Ark for now

Thanks for another worthless season, i was hoping since Microsoft brought yall a better season would come. Yall are not even trying at this point. no new builds for necro, you’re not listening to the feedback from fans. You created a worthless wannabe dungeon that is completely pointless besides gaining paragons. you nerf the monks which was nice, but gave us no new builds, THANKS FOR NOTHING!!

see you next season!

BLIZZARD LISTEN TO YOUR FANS
ITS NOT THAT HARD TO READ THIS FORUMS
JUST LIKE THE REST OF US

GIVE NECROS SOME LOVE
FIX BONE SPEAR BUILD IF YOU AINT GONNA DO ANYTHING FOR THEM

At the moment I might not even play at all. Unless the cosmetics are real nice like this season then I will get them for future seasons. And they are rarely all that nice to me. I am holding my final decision until I see some pre-season build guides and PTR reactions.

These are PTR reactions, basically it is the base non season game as a season with everyone (season and non) getting a few less gr map types and a few new ones and a new instance type called echos which is standing in one spot until you are overwhelmed for para and probably the most boring thing on earth to do hundreds of times.

That is it. No reason to post build guides because everyone I know stopped playing ptr by day 2 and its simply the base game again. They need to add a new unique reward to hunt after and or some new serious changes to classes for build guides to happen.

Seriously, log on to ptr, its dead as a door nail man. My entire clan and all of my friends stopped playing by day 2 and they usually play until ptr is closed. I think that says it all.

Yah, it’s sad but true. 2022 is 10th year of Diablo 3 from the first day it released on PC. I hope that something unexpected and fabulous are waiting for us in the season 26 but not like this now.

The deal didn’t went through yet, so they are not part of MS yet. The deal will close next year.

So mister @FilthieRich are the ptr patches coming this week? usually its 1 week after ptr launch right?

I am referring more to those from streamers/youtubers in addition to what we have on the forum so far. They have a tendency to be a bit less knee jerk reaction negative and pointing out things that you don’t always get on the forums. And also the reaction after the second half of the PTR from them and on here, we could get some number changes and theme can be adjusted as well. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think that will happen, but I reserve final judgement till after it is done.

True, it will be back to normal types. But there are a lot of builds I have never played properly so when those start coming out I might decide to check the guide for one of those and decide it is time. Even if it is just one that is an adjusted video from the past or a written guide.

I understand but from mine and my friends few days on ptr I was bored stupid by day 2. They all quit and I kept checking it out.

  • grind rifts for gr keys
  • grind grs for echo keys
  • grind echos for para?

I mean that pretty much sums it up, ya the gr changes are nice and way overdue but after a bit its no big deal, nothing interesting really.

Also the xp I suspect will be toned down substantially in echos once it is live or we will have para 8-10k plus people in a week.

And quick augments. Which is great, but the whole EN is just mehh…

PTR has been updated! Also, fixed the link in the OP as it was taking players to the Diablo III homepage. Looking forward to hearing all things PTR in the PTR sections. See you there

Just been into an Echoing Nightmare after the patch. Loads of elites and some bosses turned up. All of which caused explosions on death, so you can’t just stand in the middle any more. Much slower to progress in Tiers, seems easier to become overwhelmed.

i found it easier to do than it was before this patch…

all blizz is doing is beating a dead horse

After the patch, it seems that in Echoing Nightmare is harder to reach higher tier.

Which one is it?

Or this?

i myself found it easier, when it ended before i died i was like wtf. is that it

How about the xp gained, still the same?

XP gained is still the same, I found it much MUCH more fun then before, very fast paced and the addition of elites is very welcome for ingeom etc. Far more exciting, I really liked the changes, nice job blizz!

The Echoing Nightmare is much better now. It’s far more diversive with those elites and rift guardians spawning. It’s also much, MUCH easier to get overwhelmed, making the higher tiers harder to reach.

Unfortunately for the HC players this might make things even harder.
