Announcements - Expansion Announcement Tomorrow - Forum

" Leodeus wrote: What's the difference between an expansion and the rollout of the new skill gems. My guess is the new skills come via an "upgrade" or "patch" and an "expansion" adds more game content (ie: zones, maps, etc)...? Consider the last non-act expansions (ie not the awakening, as this was a major expansion): Sacrifice of the Vaal and Forsaken Masters. The first added new content and new end game and new 'gem concept', the second added a new dimension to the game. Compare this to the december talisman league (which despite being cool and should freshen up the meta) amounts to new gems, jewels, skills and re-worked skills. Quite a difference ;) Last edited by Drakkon1#0467 on Nov 20, 2015, 10:16:19 AM	Posted by Drakkon1#0467 on Nov 20, 2015, 10:15:37 AM Quote this Post

Thanks for the quick answer - I just started playing about 5 months ago so I wasn't really sure about the differences between expansions and new leagues, updates, and such. Your answer helped.

I can't wait to read what's going to be announced.	Posted by Mentoya#7912 on Nov 20, 2015, 10:54:41 AM Quote this Post

Outside of huge amounts of content being released all the time by the development team I have to ask what is the balancing team doing? Last edited by Kenza#6269 on Nov 20, 2015, 1:17:05 PM	Posted by Kenza#6269 on Nov 20, 2015, 1:16:31 PM Quote this Post
