Disclaimer: this topic is a teaser and everything is subject to change. The full patch notes will be released 2 days prior to the new season.


In-game Loot Filter and Notifier


It's all about that sweet loot...

Loot Filter
  • A big new engine feature that we are excited to share with you all
  • Located in a brand new tab in the game settings menu
  • Features a fully-fledged editor with the following functionality:
    • Supports multiple different filtering lists, with one active at a time
    • Switching between different filters is easy and you can also set a favourite that you can load with a hotkey
    • You can export or import filters from the clipboard with a single click
    • Display loot notifications on the screen and in the chat history, and/or on the minimap
    • Create custom rules tailored to your needs based on: Quality, Item Level, Item Type, Item Base, and more

Loot Display
  • Overhauled the algorithm that displays loot labels on the floor from the ground up
  • Now a lot more items can be seen on the screen at once more efficiently
  • Will now show items that dropped at the edge of the screen without requiring you to backtrack
  • You are now able to show or hide drops based on your filter settings
  • You can now use a hotkey to toggle display on or off, instead of holding down a key
  • Loot labels no longer interfere with other unit interactions (attacking monsters, opening doors etc.)

Nightmare at the Rogue Camp


A Halloween themed event that is not for the faint of heart

A new experience
  • Median XL gets its first new game mode, exclusive to the Sin War realm
  • Can be accessed by any character at level 125, regardless of progress, by creating a game with a special password
  • The Rogue Camp has been overrun by a vicious undead horde, are you up to the challenge?
  • Killing monsters rewards you with Harvest Points which can be exchanged for keys to the Spooky Chest
  • Trick or Treat:
    • The chest can be opened repeatedly, drops improve with each successful unlock
    • Rarely unlocks will fail and your hard earned key will poof, better luck next time
    • Rewards include Sets, Sacred Uniques, Enhanced Runes, Unique Jewels, Relics, and jump scares (no, really)
    • As well as Scrolls of Enchantment - unique modifiers and stat boosts that can be applied once to each of your items
  • There is only one problem - each horror you purge has a chance to return stronger from the grave
  • Survive long enough to face the evil controlling the nightmare

Trophy System Overhaul


Headhunting will now be all about tactics, not tedium

  • Farming bosses multiple times to trophy your charms has definitely overstayed its welcome
  • All trophy drops will now be replaced with challenges, which can be accomplished in one go
  • These are made to test your skills and preparation instead of your patience. For example:
    • Tran Athulua: kill Skovos and Lycander within 10 seconds of each other
    • Kingdom of Shadow: succeed while all teleport skills have their cooldown increased by 50 seconds
    • Yshari Sanctum: kill Valthek within 5 minutes of summoning him
    • Genesis: kill Lazarus without being struck by Tremor from a Black Hand Totem
  • Completing a Trophy Challenge will now also add a class restriction to the corresponding charm
  • Strategies for each Trophy Challenge could be different depending on your class, which adds a new dimension to the endgame quest experience
