bro, what nda? rob: yes

[@Eloheim]

It’s pretty simple… here’s a roadmap… ask them this.. Enjoy! Diablo IV: Patch Notes 1.5.XX.XXX.SOON Map & Exploration: Region Progress & Rewards: Removed. Exploration focuses on uncovering the entire map. Waypoint Persistence: Waypoints unlocked during a season remain accessible in subsequent seasons. Strongholds: Transformed into Legion Events. Players activate them, and after defeating 3 Legions, a Tormented World Boss spawns. Side Quests: Progress now carries over between seasons. Dungeons & Aspects: Completing a dungeon unlocks the entire corresponding Aspect level. Dungeon progress persists across seasons. Altars of Lilith: Removed for a more streamlined endgame. PvP Area: Removed to cater to a wider audience. Mark of Blood: Usable anywhere on the map for increased flexibility. Whispers of the Dead: Removed events to enhance focus on core endgame activities. Map Filters: Improved for better usability. Character & Progression: Stats: Simplified. Reduced to “Main Stat” and a combined “All Stats” category. Resistances consolidated into “Magic Resist.” Character Sheet: Redesigned to display core stats: Life, Resource, Armor, Magic Resist, and Attack Power. Paragon Board: Removed. Replaced with a system awarding 1 skill point per level (up to level 100). Gems: Converted into Glyphs for skill enhancement. Legendary Nodes: Integrated into the skill tree as learnable key passives (cost: 5 points). Stat Progression: Implemented a “mastery” style system granting 1% to all stats and 2% to the main stat per level. Item Vendors: Consolidated. Weapon/Armor vendors removed. Blacksmith gains “Sell All Junk” and “Salvage All Junk” functions. Tempering: Simplified. Becomes a one-time application per item, allowing for up to 2 affix additions. Unique Items: Converted into “Unique Aspects” imprintable on items alongside regular aspects. Item Enchanting: Allows adding up to 4 affixes to items using endgame materials, instead of replacing existing ones. Nightmare Dungeons: Removed. Boss Materials: Used to craft stackable Normal and Tormented Boss Sigils. Purveyor of Curiosities: Sells items with 1-2 affixes, allowing for further customization with the Occultist. Jeweler: Now sockets Glyphs providing character bonuses and rare node effects. Alchemist: Upgrades potion capacity alongside potion level. Transmutation: All boss materials included in the “Summoning Items” category. Uber Uniques: Introduced as class-specific endgame goals (one per slot). These changes aim to streamline exploration, enhance character building, and provide more control over loot and crafting.

I hate the way this diablo games works... we have a "season" every 3 months, but after 1 month and half all the hype is for the next season!!! People testing the new features and losing interest in the actual season.. and when the new season come, the hype is less because everyone playing it already.. the same happen with the expansions.. the next one is in OCTOBER in 4!!!! Months, but you gonna testing the new class, we buy the cats mount and pets, already, i don't know, is like killing the hype! If you wanna add a season do it!!! Announced it 1 week earlier, for a expansion the same.. announced a month earlier not 5 months earlier!!! No one care about the actual season game in this moment because everyone is waiting for the next season 🤦‍♂️

[@NewbsGP]

Finally your hard, HARD effort pays off!

[@tomriggs699]

100% deserves it , even during low times of d4 you kept the community active.

[@ForenoxCC]

Travel Tips from a Cabin Crew: - If you are a sleeper, try to get a window seat (and prepare some kind of pillow / inflatable, to be confort sleeping), if you are a walker (stretching legs) / toilet person, try to get aisle seat, so you can stand up and walk / stretch as much as you want without disturbing other passengers. - About picking / changing seats. If you notice a baby in nearer rows, changing seat if possible far from babies (some of them can stay for a long time crying / or poo smell is disgusting). - - Try to get or change to a seat the nearer to the front of the aircraft, (the nearer at the back you are you the more movement and turbulences are felt) . - If you ask for anything politely and nicely to the Cabin Crew, you will get better service and probably some improvements if possible, like changing to a better seat (more space ones), or anything about the service (food / drinks). - Apart from the flight service, bring some favorite snacks / food / drinks (if you can pass it thought security / or buy them after security control in terminal shops). - Long flight, (if not a sleeper), prepare things to entertain yourself (laptop / tablet / phone) with movies or shows downloaded, book to read, music earphones (Bring power bank loaded just in case the aircraft has no electric plugs or they are not working properly). (Personally I prepare a little marathon of movies so time goes really fast for me). -They are implementing new scanning systems in airports, if they have the new ones (I think in Germany already had some of them), you won't need to throw liquids before passing security. - Long flight, (if not a sleeper), prepare things to entertain yourself (laptop / tablet / phone) with movies or shows downloaded, book to read, music earphones (Bring power bank loaded just in case the aircraft has no electric plugs or they are not working properly). (Personally I prepare a little marathon of movies so time goes really fast for me). - Drink more water than usually during the flight (cabin air is really dry). - If any kind of cold sympthons for the ears blocked etc, try to kept them unblocked and clear, or pressurization will make you feel pain. - Even they clean aircrafts everyday, try to avoid as much contact with some surfaces (specially in the toilets). - Best pictures from window seats, at dawn / nightfall, while dark hours cities lights pictures (like a little google earth view). - If you are seated, always wear the seatbelt fastened confortly but secured. (Sometimes you might have Clear Air Turbulence, which no one can predict, maybe seatbelt sign is Off, and sometimes it can be a suddenly hard violent move on the cabin. It might avoid you some injuries if it is a hard one, in long flight across ocean the probability increases). Stay safe, enjoy the flight and the experience :) Can't wait to see the Spiritborn and the new expansion stuff.

[@johncorben6576]

Congratulations Rob on your invitation. Two questions from me: - are mercenaries available all the time (like in D2) or only when play solo (like in D3)? - why do they don't use word "nephalem" in D4? All the time it is just "ancient".

[@Apejohn181]

Dont forget to touch the grass in the US. Well derserved, good on you Rob!

[@zachknight5653]

Congratulations Rob! I sincerely ask that you petition the creators to make bookmarked paragon boards and skills so that we can have access to various builds. Currently in the game it is too painful to swap builds. Making pages where we can opt to have various builds just adds more depth to each character.

[@Raiden312]

Good call by Blizzard to invite you well deserved

[@supremeboy]

Dont forget to bring your hair maintenance stuff with you. Flying can mess it up.

[@Sam-143]

Keep drinking water frequently inflight, more than usual. Avoid alcohol and coffee. Sure you'll have more frequent trips to the wc but you'll minimize the effects of jetlag. Still you'll feel tired for a day or two, but won't be as bad. You definitly need to take with you a universal wall-socket adapter (most airport duty frees sell them, or even inflight shop if the airline has it). you'll also need a portable power bank inflight to charge things like phone, earphones etc. Unless you're sitting in first or business class, as those seats come with their own power sockets. Whichever class, try and ask for a window seat, as it is more isolated and less chances of people bumping into you and waking you up.

[@bighammer3464]

Get ready for some crazy traffic in LA. It’s best to use public transport. The trains can get you to most hot spots

As someone that's traveled to Cali many times over the years, shuttles are the way to go. Not rentals, not public transport. (As a tourist I mean)

[@reja123456789]

You definetly deserve it when no one played d4 you keept the fire alive congrats for the invite it was the time 🎉

[@tonym456]

I'd like to know all about mercenaries. Is it just the 4 in the pic? How do you control them?how many can you use at one time?can you set them to prioritize protecting a player or attacking elites or defending doorways, healing the player? How customizable are they? Can you use their storage? All about the mercenaries!

[@Genuine_Monster]

Congrats Dude, I also heard some Maxroll streamers are going to get to try it at the Xbox event. I don't feel the D4 devs get the credit they deserve with their community interaction and love for the streamers!

[@nuadai]

Nah, it ain't gonna be nothing like the Monk. Based on the data in that leak that got everything right so far, it looks like it'll be more like some Hunter/Ranger, because it has some skill named Volley, which suggests access to ranged weapons, probably Bows. On the other hand, it will probably have some magic similar to WD, because it comes from the same region more or less, or maybe some Druidic magic because again in that leak there was a lot of mention of "Spirit this" and "Spirit that". In any case, a Spiritual Hunter hypes me up big time. Much more than a Paladin would.

Regarding Raids. If there making them mechanically difficult like in Lost Ark, where one guy's mistakes wipes everyone, how will they address all the toxicity regarding partying up, where eventually parties only want experienced Raiders leaving no chance for new guys to learn a raid. Will there be some training solo mode for those?

Maybe a little mission line or something would be cool in D4, I can't wait to hear what they've got cooked up for new Paragon grids to level up, and absolutely looking forward to having a mercenary companion to level up on my solo adventures, more than anything I'm looking forward to more Story content, and more gameplay modes of course, every season seems to be getting better and better
