Diablo IV’s endgame looks expansive (and a bit confusing) -Tc

Diablo IVThe dungeons will be a nightmare after players complete the campaign. The developers have just released a new video outlining the game’s final progression, and it’s full of all sorts of somewhat puzzling stuff like model systems, world levels, nightmare dungeons, and more.

Players will level up their characters through a standard swamp skill tree. The video shows that once players reach level cap, complete the campaign, and complete the final dungeon at the end of the game, they will gain access to an expanded skill board that reminds me a bit of final fantasy xsphere grid of . So even though your character is at the highest possible level, there will still be a system to make it more powerful. The board is rotatable, with different orientations geared towards specific abilities and stats. Based on the video, it looks very… big and intimidating for a newbie like me, so I hope it’s not as complicated as it seems.

Nightmare Dungeons are returning to the Devil endgame that allows players to upgrade one of the dungeons they may have completed earlier to a tougher, nastier version filled with upgraded enemies and, of course, better loot qualities. Nightmare dungeons can be further modified with affixes like those found in Mythic+ dungeons in world of warcraft. They grant special, and sometimes downright cruel properties to bosses and regular mobs, like making them explode when killed.

Diablo IVEndgame also did not forget about PvP sufferers. In Fields of Hatred (which, coincidentally, is also the name of my upcoming farming co-op), players will collect shards from bosses that they then need to purify to purchase special cosmetic rewards. But attempting to purify shards seems to alert other players who may want to steal your shards from you.

devil meV’s end game looks pretty sick because there seems to be so much I still don’t understand that makes me dizzy. I’m really looking forward to finding out what this all means when Diablo IV launches on June 6th.
