In der vergangenen Nacht veröffentlichten die für Diablo 3: Reaper of Souls zuständigen Mitarbeiter von Blizzard Entertainment einen neuen Blogeintrag auf ihrer offiziellen Communityseite, der die aktiven Spieler dieses Titels darauf aufmerksam machen soll, dass am 01. Oktober 2020 eine Testphase für Patch 2.6.10 auf dem PTR starten wird. Dieser anstehende Test soll sich laut dem Beitrag der Entwickler dann in zwei verschiedene Phasen aufteilen. Die erste Phase der Tests soll den Spielern die geplanten Änderungen an den Legendaries und den Sets zur Verfügung stellen und sich hauptsächlich um das Balancing dieser Inhalte drehen. Die am 08. Oktober startende zweite Phase erweitert den PTR dann um die neuen saisonalen Inhalte und erlaubt es den Spielern auf dem PTR unter anderem das neue Saisonthema auszuprobieren. Wer sich selbst an diesen Tests beteiligen möchte, der muss nächste Woche einfach nur die Region in seinem Launcher ändern, die benötigten Daten herunterladen und neue Charaktere auf dem öffentlichen Testserver von Diablo 3 erstellen.

Was die Inhalte von Patch 2.6.10 betrifft, so handelt es sich bei dem neuen Saisonthema vermutlich um die interessanteste Neuerung aus diesem Update. Dieser saisonale Effekt trägt die Bezeichnung „Shadows of the Past“ und sorgt bei der Aktivierung eines Schreins/Pylonen dafür, dass eine schattenhafte Kopie des eigenen Helden erscheint und für eine Minute an der Seite seines Beschwörers kämpft. Die Stärke des Klons skaliert dabei dann mit dem Helden seines Beschwörers und der Klon verwendeten einen von drei möglichen Builds der jeweiligen Klasse. Welche Spielweisen diese Kopien verwenden können, erfahrt ihr in dem folgenden Beitrag der Entwickler.

 

PTR 2.6.10 Preview Blog

Our two-week PTR testing period for the 2.6.10 update begins October 1 and we’re asking for your help to quell the tides of surging demons. Take a look at the preliminary patch notes below and start theorycrafting how you’ll make the most of the brand-new season content, a new item, and tons of Legendary item changes; Patch 2.6.10 will be arriving soon.

 

PTR Focus & Details

We’ll be conducting the Patch 2.6.10 PTR, and phasing in content updates over the course of two weeks, starting Thursday, October 1. During this time there may be periodic maintenances, outages, hotfixes, or minor patches. This time around, testing will consist of two phases:

  • Phase 1 – October 1: During this phase, we will be introducing Legendary and Set item changes
  • Phase 2 – October 8: In this phase, we will be adding the Seasonal Theme content

 

NOTE: Phase 1 content will persist throughout the entirety of the PTR. Phase 2 content will be an addition to the existing content.

There will be two PTR-unique buffs active to help you on your journey: increased Legendary drop rate and double Blood Shard drops. You can also buy new gear for testing from the special PTR vendor, Djank Mi’em, who will exchange Blood Shards for class-specific bags full of Legendary items that we’d love for you to test!

Class Changes: To ensure that the most significant class changes receive an ample amount of attention, we’d love for you to focus testing and feedback on the Wizard changes around Etched Sigils and Hydras, the Crusader’s Steed Charge build, and the Witch Doctor’s Crazy Chicken build.

So that we can efficiently review your posts, feedback should be provided in the PTR Feedback forum while bug reports should be provided in the PTR Bug Report forum.

 

Patch Notes

Below you will find the patch notes for the upcoming update for Diablo III, Patch 2.6.10.

Seasons

The shadows, they are moving, and they seem… animated. It is as though they have a will of their own. Whatever this trickery is, perhaps you can use it to your advantage. Let’s see what the demons say when you fight side by side with your own shadow!

Shadows of the Past: Activating a Shrine/Pylon will spawn in a shadow clone of your class. This clone will randomly have 1 out of 3 predetermined builds. This clone’s power will scale with your character and will last for 1 minute or if your character dies. See below for the shadow clone variations that can spawn when activating.

How to Participate

To participate in the public test, you must have a Diablo III game license attached to a Battle.net account in good standing (i.e. one that hasn’t been suspended or banned). In addition, you will also need to download and install the Blizzard Battle.net desktop app if you have not already done so.

Step 1: Restart the Battle.net desktop app.

Step 2: Navigate to the Diablo III tab on the left-hand menu.

Step 3: On the Diablo III screen, there is a drop-down menu right above the „Play“ button (note that this may say „Install“ if you do not have Diablo III currently installed). Select „PTR: Diablo III“ from this drop-down menu before proceeding.

Step 4: Click Install to begin the installation process.

Your PTR account will be created automatically if you do not already have one. The PTR is available in all supported languages, and accounts from all regions are eligible to participate. For additional assistance with installing and launching the PTR, click here.

 

PTR Character Copy

The option to copy your existing Diablo III characters from your live account to the PTR will be available and can be done directly through the PTR client. However, only one region per account can be copied at a time. So, if you choose to copy characters from your account in a different region, any previously copied PTR characters will be lost.

Step 1: Log into the live game and then log out.

Step 2: Log into PTR client and create a level 1 character. After you’re done, return to the main character screen.

Step 3: Click on the „PTR Copy“ button located in the upper right-hand corner. (The PTR Copy button will not appear in-game until you have created a new level 1 character.)

Step 4: Select your region.

Step 5: Click „Copy.“ This will copy all characters on your account from the selected region.

Step 6: You will be disconnected from the PTR client.

Step 7: Log back in. Your copied characters will be available for play.

Please note that you can only copy characters from one gameplay region at a time. If you choose to copy characters from a different region, any previously copied PTR characters will be lost. In addition, you can only copy characters over to your PTR account once every 24 hours. Attempting to copy characters before this cooldown is up will result in an error.
