Season 31 Battle Pass: Torment Upon Torment

The flesh suffers, but the spirit knows that acceptance is the only answer. Starting on September 26, 3 a.m. server time, the spirit will unshackle itself from torment, revealing a Battle Pass containing 40 Ranks worth of rewards, such as Crests, Hilts, Legendary Gems, and more.

Begin slaying demons and climbing your way through the ranks today before all that’s left of you is a bare husk! You have until October 24, 2:59 a.m. server time.

Nightmoon Curse Cosmetic

Few things are more tragic than a champion turned monster. Surrender yourself to a more primal nature, a more bloodthirsty disposition.

Collector and Deluxe versions of this Cosmetic Set are available in the in-game shop as well.

In this unique, limited-time PVP event from September 27, 3 a.m.–October 4, 2:59 a.m. server time, you will start at Level 1, work together in teams of 6 to explore an expansive map, and endure to become the last surviving team.

All Clans on Deck

The armies of the Burning Hells are mustering their forces for a ploy, most assuredly of nefarious intent. You must rally your banner, adventurer—call upon your Clan for aid to beat back the tide of darkness! From ctober 5, 3 a.m.–October 12, 3 a.m. server time, Sanctuary will need All Clans on Deck.

From October 11, 3 a.m.–October 18, 3 a.m. go head-to-head against another player while earning rewards and climbing your way through the event’s Ranks. Each player has an enclosed lane in which broods of demons will flood in waves—your goal is to cull the demons from Hell with steadfast dedication. For more information about this event, visit this article.

Fire Before Darkness

In Sanctuary, few are capable enough to stand against the darkness and wager their life for the defenseless. But you, adventurer, have consigned your days to thinning out the ranks of the Burning Hells, ushering in safety where all hope was once lost. The downtrodden look up to you, and to continue serving them, you must traverse Fire Before Darkness.

From October 12, 3 a.m.–October 19, 2024, at 3 a.m. server time, completing daily Into the Dark Wood tasks will unlock various milestone rewards for your heroics, such as:

Feature Updates

Runes

10 New Runes have surfaced in Sanctuary. Remember, Runes can appear as a rare monster drop anywhere, but they are most abundant within Abyssal Verge. These Runes will become available starting September 30.

Equipment Tooltip Updates

Rune Sockets will now contribute to the score of an item. Bonuses to Base Attributes of an item are reflected in the item’s tooltip and will show an increased value when these affixes are present.

Tower War

Tower War has received a variety of changes to gameplay. These changes aim to create a more fun and streamlined experience for everyone.

The points required to win a match have been reduced to 1,300 from 1,500.
The boss will now appear once 800 points have been acquired by a team.
The matchmaking system has been updated to better construct teams of equal strength.
The Sapphire Normal Gem will now add towards your Resonance total for matchmaking purposes in Tower War.

Tower War Rank Ranges

Considering how frustrating it is to lose your Rank in Tower War after fighting for a long time to reach it, we are changing the way Ranks function after several losses.

After reaching a Major rank withing Tower War, you will no longer fall from the major Rank but instead stay within that tier. This ensures that as long as you get one of the major Ranks (Silver, Gold, Legendary) your Rank will reduce but not drop to one of the lower Rank tiers before the end of the season. For example, you could still reduce in Rank from Silver II to Silver I, but not from Silver I to Bronze V.

Tower War Compensation for AFK Players

For players that lose a Tower War match after a teammate is removed for inactivity or a disconnection, we’re compensating the loss of the match with a slight reimbursement of overall points.

Challenge of the Immortal

Recent data we’ve collected has shown that the Immortal has been underperforming in matches. We’ve made the following changes to better balance this activity for both sides.

Life and Damage gems will begin as effective for the Immortal.
The total number of kills required for the Immortal to win has been reduced.

Shadows Goals

All available Shadows Goals will now be displayed instead of just three.

Warbands

Warbands size has increased from 8 to 12 members. This change was made to offer more flexibility in how Warbands can be structured.

Clans

Clan Leaders may now change the name of their Clan by paying 1,500 Platinum. A cooldown period of 7 days will go into effect after a name change is completed for your Clan. This option can be found inside the Clan management menu.

Damage Statistics Log for Dungeon Runs

A new data tab has been added to the top-right corner of the screen. In this tab, you can view a variety of data about your combat performance in that particular Dungeon run. Additionally, you can see how much damage each of your Skills have contributed to your total damage.

Familiars

Our previous update allowed you to Empower more than one Familiar at once, but only provided the option to Empower all Familiars directly to Level 30. Now, you can select how many levels you want to Empower any number of Familiars.
Previously, you could not save your companion or Bonded Familiar information in the armory. Now you can.

Paragon Trees

The red dot notification will no longer display when you have acquired 4 Paragon Points or more. A number will be displayed inside the Paragon Tree menu to display how many Paragon Points you have available.

Damage Numbers Display

The amount of damage being dealt by some adventurers is so large that it obstructs their view. A new option in the Settings menu allows you to adjust whether combat numbers appear at all, and their display size.

Difficulty Select Menu

A navigation button has been added to this menu for locked Difficulties. Selecting it will direct you to the Helliquary Boss you must defeat to unlock the corresponding Difficulty.
