great, another reason not to play melee ...

It could be a dodge-able fire bomb like in D3.

Nice. I am really looking forward to the new leagues. Although I think I will just skip the hardcore one this time.

Somebody teach this guy to read the titles and not open threads like this which will clearly contain spoilers if he doesn't want to see them.

In my opinion, the "softcore" variant sounds funnier the the HC one. Curious how common this shrines are.

I will try "Domination" first. Its also a good chance to meet new monsters for the first time.

I think it's a big mistake to create these new leagues for small new features like this honestly. Hopefully the leagues won't last that long.

They both sound pretty good. Hopefully the mods will be more apparent than they were in the last league pair. Anarchy exiles were fairly rare and Onslaught was just a small stats boost so neither of them were too visible.

They will last 4 months just like the leagues we have now. If you watched the part about the new leagues, he says they are using the new leagues as testing grounds for new mechanics. Popular mechanics will make their way into the permanent leagues while the not so well taken in mechanics will not. I personally think it is a good way to do it. It spices up the new leagues while allowing them to get player feedback.

Underwhelmed by new hardcore league. New softcore league gets fun shrines while hardcore just gets mechanics that punish melee players.


They had the same issue last cycle and onslaught turned into a ghost town.


I'm hoping that they add more than just the nemesis mods.
