Are there any formal posts on the quarterly/tri-annual ladder reset?

I’ve heard that all ladder characters get switched to non-ladder, and most people delete their chars at that point. Also that in the new season, everyone starts from scratch. True?

Depends on what magic find you're running at and how many players are running, since higher player count reduces the nodrop rate (chance a killed enemy will drop nothing). down the equation, if an enemy drops nothing, it has no chance to roll possible unique.

more or less, yea. you'll see announcements here and in the discord channel as well as a countdown timer at the top right of the forum here when it is announced.

some people keep NL chars for testing, but most start new

Thanks for the answer, looking forward to new season because it feels like purgatory at the moment!

Hi all,

How do I craft an amulet that will have the Hailstorm Oskill on it?

So I unlocked the Vine Companion skill with my caster druid, but I'm a totally confused about how to use it.

- Is it meant to be casted everytime, aiming at the enemy ? As the icon & lifebar stays at the top of the screen, it seems to imply that its effects are "passive" (like a companion). Also this red ball spinning around the character...

- What's the correct way to use it ? on static / moving mobs ? On bosses ?

Thank you ! I want to feel powerful with my new uberskill :twisted:

Did you read the skill? It's a passive pet that can't die, which poisons, slows and lowers physical resist of monsters. More hard points increases the radius of it's attack. That's it, you don't have to do anything else. It attacks on it's own and follows you around. The red aura is because it increases HP as well. I'm not sure what's there to misunderstand if you read the tooltip.
