We encourage our PTR participants to explore and play the following new content: We want to gauge reception and feedback on these changes before we make them final for Live. All the changes implemented in this PTR are not in stone. A key opportunity we saw was improving the effectiveness of lesser-used skills.Īs we progress in this PTR, please be aware there may be periodic maintenances, outages, hotfixes, or minor patches. The game is built around completing the Acts on each difficulty and we wanted our players to be empowered to play their heroes in the ways they preferred. It has been more than eleven years since we’ve made changes like this to the game! So, when we started making balance adjustments, we wanted to focus on expanding more skill build variety and adding more viable possibilities with playing each class. We’re ecstatic to make balance changes that will improve the viability of each class while retaining the class fantasy of our favorite heroes. Our Design Director, Robert Gallerani, and Senior Game Producer, Matthew Cederquist, joined community content creator, MrLlamaSC, to highlight our philosophies and improvements being made to our seven unique classes. If you missed that Developer Update Stream, you may watch it below. With your help, we can continue the legacy of making Diablo II: Resurrected the ARPG we all cherish. We hope you participate in the PTR and continue to share your feedback.

From the very beginning, we’ve acknowledged that our collaboration with our community helps us craft a better game for all. This will be our community’s first opportunity to experience these changes and share their feedback from their playthroughs.
