no - completely independent - and what you get in PTR (paragon/gear/mats/etc) doesn’t transfer over to live either.
Mobile seems utterly uncompetitive. Very fun, not competitive. Many counterintuitive elements, and damage lacking due to no supporting legendaries.
In D3, every GR scales 17%, compounding. Therefore, doubling damage only raises a build 4m5 GR levels. If a set is 10 GRs behind, it needs something like a 4x buff. Therefore, 1-2 buffing legendaries.

So another pointless season? Great.
The only dev that did something good for DH was Yang.
The PTR is completely separate to the live server. Nothing you do there will affect your normal account.
Go nutz!

I’m excited for the season to begin. The new sets look fun. DH looks a bit boring though since it now appears to be another 1 button spin to win set.
I like the necromancer set. It will be nice to do something other than spam mages ftw!
Well, it is not. It requires more participation from the player than holding one button down.

Oh, good to hear! I find those sets to be nice for bounties or speeds but in the long run they get boring.
Thanks for the reply!
Close, but not quite.
When using Cheat Death with Simulacrum the Simulacrums were sacrificing themselves and dying, which meant that you lost all of your survivability and most of your damage, which is basically a death sentence, especially if it’s cd was not up (and it wouldn’t reset because you didn’t die).
You would then proc Final Service, and you would then die, so it became completely useless.
This way around, you proc Final Service, you keep your simulacrums, so you can still do damage, and still have survivability.
If you then proc your simulacrums, BOTH of them sacrifice themselves for you, not just 1, but hopefully by that time your simualcrum CD is up so you can pop them again, and hopefully before they sacrifice again your Final Service is back up.
On top of that, Final Service was causing some issues with Simulacrum, where they would just die for no apparent reason, i’m not sure if that was fixed by this change or if that is still happening, as for SC this is a completely useless trait now.
