Blizzard Entertainment

Well met, adventurer! Since our last meeting, you’ve climbed through the ranks of a new Battle Pass straight from Nahantu’s river gates and sought out Legendary Gems with increased fervor. This content update introduces new Legendary Items, the Winds of Fortune limited-time event, and even has a hint at an incredible alliance 20 years in the making set to make its mark in Sanctuary...

Please note: The generals of the Burning Hells have unleashed their most clever magic: the ability to alter time itself. Starting on October 30, the server time will be set back by one hour for all European, and North American servers and brought forward by one hour for all Australian Servers during maintenance.

As with previous content updates, there will be server maintenance starting on October 29, 5 p.m.–7 p.m. PDT for Oceania, China, East Asia, Southeast Asia, and Europe servers, and on October 30, 1 a.m.–3 a.m. PDT for servers in the Americas. After the maintenance has concluded, all items mentioned below will be live—specific dates for any content going live afterward are provided below.

Winds of Fortune Limited-time Event

Horadric Scholars have been poring over their tomes to find the source of this increased materialized wealth, while the merchants of Sanctuary are seizing the opportunity to increase their abundance.

From November 6, 3:00 a.m.—November 13, 3:00 a.m. local server time, you will earn increased rewards!

While Winds of Fortune is live, activate your 24-hour buff to receive this duplicate effect. Once activated, the buff is in real time and will end 24 hours after it’s been initiated. If you have not activated the buff within 24 hours of the event ending, it will be enabled automatically. Any rewards not claimed before the end of the event will be auto-claimed on next log-in.

During Winds of Fortune, the 4-player party Normal Gems bonus drop will be doubled and unaffected by the daily cap, and only the first twelve Common Gems of the day will be tradable.

Feature Updates

Terror Rift Changes

We are changing Terror Rifts to improve your time collecting Terror Essence with the intention to make the experience a bit smoother.

Terror Rifts will now be available for 24 hours, with one map available at a time. Countdown timers are now individual, and not shared with the team. Teams must enter the same difficulty level and map to participate in the Terror Rift together.

Essence requirements for each Stygian Spires have been adjusted. Previously, it was 200 Essence per Stygian Spire, but now it is 100, 150, 250, and 300. While the total Essence needed stays the same, but now it is easier to complete more Stygian Spires.

Stygian Spire locations will be shown directly when they refresh, making it easier to find them. Monsters no longer spawn when opening Stygian Spires, and instead you’ll go directly to fighting the boss. Screen effects have also been optimized for performance and overall appearance.

Familiar Melding Updates

To help prevent losing your preferred Familiar when Melding, we’ve updated the flow to ensure the process is a bit clearer. Currently, when Melding two Familiars together, the display is more focused on the stat upgrades and not on the species that’s being selected which makes it easy to forget which species is currently being selected.

Now, when you pick your resulting Familiar’s attributes, we've added a highlight to the Familiar species selected to help indicate which species of Familiar is being preserved.

Familiar Removal UI Updates

We’ve made it easier to remove a Familiar from a Companion or Bonded slot without needing to replace it with another Familiar. The button to remove is still in the same location and has an updated icon and is more clearly indicated as a dropdown selection.

Familiar Traits UI Changes

The Traits guide button will now have a counter next to it to show how many traits are activated overall to make it easier for you to see them without having to select the Traits Guide.

Event Rewards Milestone UI Changes

An auto-scroll feature has been added to the rewards milestone screen in the Event Hub. When you open the Event Hub, the latest available reward will automatically scroll into view.

Battlegrounds Gold and Legendary Loss Changes

To help you on your journey climbing through Gold and Legendary ranks, we’ve adjusted the Rank loss amount when paying in Gold and Legendary ranks. You’ll now lose less ranking after a loss in the hopes of making this climb smoother.

Training Ground Boss Updates

One of the Target Dummies in Westmarch will now be a boss dummy, allowing you to test your items and combat mechanics related to bosses. It’s amazing what a little extra straw can do!

Reduce Inferno II Difficulty

We are lowering the Combat Rating necessary for unlocking Inferno II and adjusting the Combat Rating tuning across multiple Helliquary bosses to help smooth out the difficulty curve. Inferno II’s open world Combat Rating will now be set to 33,320 with dungeons at 33,520.

Uthmaash-Ksarr Boss Changes

We have tweaked the damage for some of Uthmaash-Ksarr's skills to prevent instances where players are being killed in one shot.

Returning Events

Alley of Blood

Quarreling forces threaten to desecrate hallowed grounds, marking a point in the conflict between the forces of Shadows and Immortals.

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 November 2, 3 a.m.–November 9, 3 a.m. server time, Sanctuary will need All Clans on Deck. For more information about this event and its rewards, visit this article.

Trial of the Hordes

You may be experienced, but emerging victorious from the Trial of the Hordes is the true mark of a champion. From November 8, 3 a.m.–November 15, 3 a.m. server time, 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.

Shields of the Hearth Limited-time Event

Crashing into a soft bed of snow, you free your axe from a fallen Khazra and rise to your feet. Breathing in, then out, you begin to catch your breath, but it’s short lived. The frigid wind whips you around, revealing a small horde of Khazra racing in to avenge their ally. Your bloodthirsty attackers number many, but when do they not? Raising your shield, you brace yourself for the slaughter ahead.

Bitter winds carry whispers of evil to every corner of the frozen land. Protect the world from its grasping fingers during the Shields of the Hearth limited-time event.

From November 9 at 3:00 a.m.–November 16 at 3:00 a.m. server time, as you complete daily Shields of the Hearth tasks, you’ll receive various rewards for your heroics. Racking up enough completed tasks will also unlock milestone rewards for you—an ode to vanquishing countless horrors.

Region-Specific Game Additions
