Season 30 The Lords of Hell – Has Concluded

the Rites of Sanctuary and Visions of Enmity Season themes have become a permanent fixture of Diablo III

THEMES becoming permanent FIXTURE. Also note the layout. Altar and visions are towards the bottom of the patch, separate from s30 soul shard season theme contents, under patch notes section :

Below you’ll find patch notes for the upcoming update to Diablo III: Patch 2.7.7`

Adam is pretty accurate in his info. What happened on PTR was miscommunication. For sure altar removed in NS PTR is due to encouraging testing on s30 contents to gather data. Who would want to craft on PTR s30 if NS altar is available will full inventory?

Denial looks similar to the treatment of Faithful Memory, in other words, you attack and gain stacks and you can maintain them even if you whiff at air. Currently, we lose all 5 stacks if we hit nothing — maybe now we’ll get to keep our stacks, which will make the build feel a lot better when low on trash.

Wording. Fist of the heaven and heaven’s fury increased to 15,000% from (previously) 20,000%

How is it a nerf? Stacks now lasts longer between mobs, total multiplier unchanged @ 625% max.

So, it’s a decrease because it’s 20,000% now. If it’s going to be 15,000%. So, actual understandable language would be “Because Crusaders have been overwhelmingly taking over the leader boards we’ve decreased the set’s buff from by 5,000% (from 20,000% to 15,000%).”

Sorry, not sorry, for the sarcasm (directed at the devs, not you)

Welp, there is absolutely nothing new this season, not even pennants or frames.
I guess it’s time to move on.
Thanks a lot for everyone on these forums for all the useful info. Major props for Behindtimes!
I hope to see you guys on another (non-blizzard) game. Cheers!

Untrue! If you’re a monk player, you just lost your strongest + most fun build, and are now forced to play either Raiment or Uliana, two broken and hand-crippling builds with problematic mechanics that received number buffs instead of real fixes. That is very new!!!

Cheers for explaining. Guess if the change isn’t retroactive I can bin the primal Denial i got this season.

I got room for one more build on my main Sader so Sweep Attack Rolands could be something i can work towards.

If the entire power changes, then scrap it. However the wording does give an impression that the change is external, meaning it can be retroactive.

you can probably make a pretty respectable bombsader with LoD with the altar addition, as the A6 set does something very different now lol.

Glad to see the Chilltara change! Sad to see no love for Lut Socks xD <3 But you can’t win 'em all.

I’m glad they reduced the nerf for M6. It’s gonna very fun to speed farm (again) 120s with Cold rune.

Feature Changes

Well, all the fan favorites are written down. I’m kind of bitter about Chiltara change, because now I feel like a fool for ever grinding for that dumb trinket this hard along the decade. But whatever, you can’t whine for too long.

It’s nice to see a buff to Uliana and Roland after all this time to be honest. It’ll be a good Season I think.

Just want to get some confirmation in case i missed something when reading the blog update.

So there is no new seasonal cosmetic in season 30, right? It is recycled cosmetics, right?

If paragon level defined the level of knowledge of the game, it would have been known for a long time.

But this is not the case

Super short notice!

I’m looking forward to it but I only just started the latest Torchlight: Infinite season and it’s fun. So I guess I may get a late start on S30.

Hell, it’s about time!

Thank you. Then i have no reason to play S30. Back to Diablo 3.5. :laughing:

“Whisper of Atonements can now be salvaged for 1–3 Forgotten Souls.” => Did they mean “100-300 Forgotten Souls” ? Otherwise, what’s the point of doing EN if you have enough Whispers of Atonements for augmenting your stuff?

Some kind of built in corpse generation for the Pestilence set would have been nice. Or on one of the supporting legendaries.
