Companions Bring Excitement and Viability

In Season of the Construct, players will finally have the opportunity to have companions in Diablo 4. These companions will offer support, buffing, and potentially even damage and healing abilities. They are not simply passive additions, but rather active entities that enhance the player’s overall gameplay experience. This is a welcome addition for those looking to increase their character’s viability and explore new build possibilities.

Vaults: Specialized Dungeons with Riches

The introduction of vaults adds a new layer of gameplay to Diablo 4. These specialized dungeons, designed by Zoltan Kulle, offer unique treasures and bonuses for players. By converting Pearls of Warding, players can gain access to Zoltan’s warding, which grants blessings and additional rewards within the vaults. Players can also increase the risk and potential rewards by exchanging Pearls of Warding for extra stacks of Zoltan’s warding. This system adds depth and incentive for players to explore and conquer the vaults.

The Gauntlet: A Weekly Challenge

With the addition of the gauntlet, Diablo 4 introduces a new weekly challenge for players. This rotating fixed dungeon functions similarly to Diablo 3’s challenge rifts, providing players with a unique and difficult dungeon to conquer each week. Those who achieve top scores in the gauntlet will earn a permanent place in the Hall of Ancients, showcasing their skill and dedication.

Quality of Life Improvements

Season of the Construct brings several quality of life updates to Diablo 4. One notable improvement is the implementation of permanent game modes for Hell Tides, allowing players to access them throughout the entire day. Enhanced movement controls are also introduced, giving players on PC the ability to use the W key for movement, a highly requested feature. Other improvements include enhancements to skill trees, UI, and increased rates for earning necessary items.
