Who's Ready for Season 1 of Diablo 4?!

Per news from the Diablo 4 Game Launcher and News Site, our very first season of the game is coming in just a couple weeks time:

Corruption has befallen Sanctuary in Season of the Malignant, the first Season of Diablo IV. On July 20 at 10 a.m. PDT, a new Season Journey, Questline, Boss, Dungeons, Battle Pass, and more will go live—we’ll give you a preview below. On July 18, we’ll release another article shedding even more light on what’s coming with the new Season, including 6 new Unique Items and 7 Legendary Aspects.

Oo! I'm all in for this.

To be honest, I'm not sure how much more of the Diablo IV Druid I can take, so this will be a welcome change. I'm currently up to Level 82 and Currently doing almost exactly what I've been doing for the past 20 levels: Helltides, Whispers, World Bosses, Legion Events, and Nightmare Dungeons. Over and over and over and over.

I had a friend of mine who just turned 100 on his Necromancer. According to him the level grind from 85 to 100 takes about the same time as the level grind from 1 to 85. That's quite the exp level curve!  It reminds me of what it felt like to level from 50 to 60 in Everquest back in the day.  (Nah, leveling from 50 to 60 in Everquest was way harder.)

I did finally clear the entire map, which was nice. Really all it took was finding 4 or 5 random out of the way areas of the map that I somehow missed while leveling and finding the Lilith Statues. 

That was a fun hidden spot in Fractured Peaks!

Unfortunately I can't seem to make the hurdle jump between Tier 39 and Tier 40 Nightmare dungeons to earn that next achievement. To be honest though, it's not really giving me a ton of boost for all that effort running a Tier 39 dungeon.  I should just stick to the lower Tier 30's. It's the most bang for the buck on exp.

An unsuccessful Tier 41 run . . . still fun . . . but, yes, unsuccessful

I will say that the most fun I have in game right now are with the open world events.  Helltides.com is now up and running every time I play. I need to know when stuff is happening and it's the perfect site for tracking it all down.

Helltides is Super Fun! Probably my favorite thing in game.

So there you go!  We've got 2 weeks to wrap things up before Season 1 happens! Best of luck to you all and I hope to see you taking down the Malignant by my side.

Happy Dueling!
