Backup weapon slots (x) are now displayed on your characters back while not in use.

Thats my guess.

After watching the video detailing the new unique Wings axe, my guess is that since the weapon acts as one weapon, you can still equip a shield and receive blocking bonuses etc from the shield, the only difference is that it is displayed on your back instead of in your offhand.

That's my guess, and I'm hoping I'm right because that opens up a whole other world of builds.

There's a "sword on back" microtransaction coming. GGG uploaded a youtube video of it here youtube link.

The shield is probably a similar microtransaction. One that thematically fits the second orange portal we just saw.

Jonathan was just testing the patch. Here's a screenshot he took.

So how much GPU does he need to run at that resolution?

This is where you insert "it would be so great if our whole Team had such amazing monitors

I love those monitors. Besides the price, waiting for them to not be stitched. Will be my next major upgrade for the setup.

Beautiful.

Hey GGG

I just want to let u know that u guys are awesome when it comes to communication and timely patching, among other things. I would say 30% of the reason I am still playing and 90% of the reason I support u financially is because of your unprecedented communication with your community.

So keep doing what u r doing. The complaints u see in this thread show nothing but how much u have spoiled us. Then again I come from a game where month long delays are accepted norm and communication was less per month than u guys do in half a day.

We're looking at around 60-90 minutes at this stage. Hopefully a little less. There's a surprise in the patch too.

Looks like something went wrong on your side.
You could post patch notes at least if 1.0.2 really is to be deployed today.
