I'll give you a million doll hairs if you can guess what happens to a Seasonal Socket when the season ends and the socketed item goes into the non-seasonal realm where only regular sockets exist and not seasonal sockets

They delete the entire item, along with your character, once the season is over

Depends on if they decide to keep the mechanic or not. Gems currently suck rear end so it wouldn't surprise me if they do keep it just to have something worth putting in sockets.

This is actually cool and good because it's exactly how Diablo 2 did it and everybody loves Diablo 2

So I saw that though they're patching, the game is still running. I decided to start collecting my alter backlog and found all mobs that spawn after you grab a statue are spawning either under the map or out of bounds

If this is caused by the patch being live deployed, dunno why they'd let players play the game in this state.

That�s been in the game since release. It hasn�t happened to me, but several friends had the issue.

No, this happened to me several times when I was collecting them all a few weeks back. Happens on certain quests and world events, too. And just for kicks, sometimes completely random mobs will spawn underground for no reason at all!

I had this too, but only before WT3, I always figured they were hell tide mobs or something that for some reason were visible but not there since hell tides aren't in WT1 and WT2.

I didn't see the stream but read through maxroll summary. It looks like the season is just additional loot complexity, a boss fight, and the battlepass?

Is the endgame going to be different than it is today, other than taking longer to farm "optimal" gear?

I tried what you said for about 45min yesterday, and probably another hour across a few different times previously. None of that worked for me. Maybe it'll work for other people.

What worked for me was setting the background FPS to 1, starting the conversation, alt+tabbing till they yell (something they never did before), and running after the barricade with them. This doesn't reset the dungeon at all. But since it worked for me and several other people on Reddit, I decided to share it here to maybe help someone else.

not an option for consoles and anecdotally didn�t work for my partner on PC. glad it seemed to have worked but i�ve seen handfuls of people agree with each kind of voodoo around getting the quest to work whether or not it does anything. hopefully these patch notes i haven�t read yet have mentioned that it�s fixed

The new boss is in some sort of new dungeon type. I hope they're more interesting than nightmare dungeons.

Ran into all of these and are glad they're fixed

quote:

Fixed multiple issues where Quest progress would be blocked if the player used a Town Portal during specific sequences.
Fixed an issue where the Forgotten Depths dungeon had one fewer prisoner to release than intended.
Fixed an issue where teleporting to Wejinhani during the Witch of the Wastes quest would force the player to drop the Vial of Quicksilver, despite the town being an allowed area for the quest.
Fixed an issue where the Cultist's Refuge, Howling Warren and Luban�s Rest dungeons couldn't be completed if the Butcher appeared and was not killed.

lollin at all these though

quote:

Fixed an issue where the player could not rotate when casting a Channeled Skill if using a one-hand weapon with no off-hand item equipped.
Fixed an issue where Aspects that deal flat damage imprinted through the Codex of Power scaled with player level instead of item power.
Fixed an issue where Cheat Death effects would not trigger if you died while mounted.
Fixed an issue where players on Console would be unable to navigate the Shop after using the Buy More Platinum button.
Fixed an issue where the cost of the Sturdy Saddle Cosmetic from the Stable Vendor would scale with the player character's Level.

And of course these are all welcome

Gameplay Adjustments
Helltide chests can now drop Unique items.
The bosses Vhenard, Brol, and Cyhrach have had their health pools and damage output reduced.

- The tedious nature of resetting your skills and paragon points, which is on their radar for making more pleasant at some point in the future one day probably maybe

that is insane. manually resetting paragon points and redoing the board is stupid as hell and the biggest reason why I'm not trying more builds. I'm thinking of how easy it is to switch loadouts in Destiny 2 (for example)

Yeah it sucks it's not an option for console players, but could be a solution for PC players so still worth sharing, if still not addressed in this patch.

It feels like someone at the helm wants your build to be a Commitment and they have people undermining their effort and giving us this current system where you CAN fully respec at a totally negligible cost, but it's a colossal pain in the rear end

I should be able to save a full build with items, transmogs, skills, and paragon points to a Loadout Slot and change between them with a single button press. gently caress you until I can do that, tbqh

Yeah, as a freak who doesn't mind replaying campaigns over and over in traditional ARPGS, rolling characters for different builds makes some sense there but does not work with an open world imo. Once you go open world just have loadouts and level once per class
