Diablo Immortal will at long last let players craft 5-Star Legendary Gems, thanks to the addition of a new currency used specifically for crafting the powerful items. (Via)

In Diablo Immortal dreht sich das Ausrüsten eines Helden hauptsächlich um das Erlangen von legendären Sockelsteinen mit 5 Sternen. Diese mächtigen Gegenstände waren bisher nur sehr selten in Rissen erhältlich, die sich über kostenpflichtige verbrauchbare Gegenstände öffnen lassen. Daher konnte das Sammeln dieser Objekte sehr viel Echtgeld beanspruchen und der Titel war für viele Spieler zumindest im Endgame einfach nur P2W.

Einem gestern Abend veröffentlichten Blogeintrag der Entwickler zufolge soll aber wohl bereits am heutigen Mittwoch, den 12. Oktober 2022 ein neues Update für Diablo Immortal erscheinen. Dieser neue Patch wird wohl eine interessante Neuerung mit sich bringen, die es den Spielern endlich erlauben soll, solche legendären Edelsteine mit 5 Sternen herzustellen. Dafür wird eine neue Währung mit dem Namen „Telluric Pearls„ eingeführt und Spieler können diese Ressource dann in die Edelsteine umwandeln.

Dem Blogeintrag zufolge soll es mehrer Quellen für die neuen „Telluric Pearls„ geben. Spieler können sie bei einem NPCs gegen Hilt eintauschen, sie lassen sich über die zeitlich limitierten Events des Spiels freischalten und sie werden in Paketen über Echtgeld in angeboten. Aktuell ist nicht bekannt, wie viele dieser Perlen man für einen Edelstein benötigt und wie schnell sich diese Ressource als F2P-Spieler erlangen lässt. Vermutlich wird das Ganze mit einem ziemlichen Grind verbunden sein. Ansonsten macht Blizzard vermutlich zu hohe Verluste.

Auch wenn das Herstellen von legendären Edelsteinen mit 5 Sternen höchstwahrscheinlich mit viel Aufwand und einem zeitintensiven Grind verbunden sein wird, so ist das Ganze aber trotzdem eine Verbesserung. Schließlich kann man diese Edelsteine dann endlich durch einen Grind kostenlos erlangen und niemand ist mehr gezwungen Geld auszugeben. Das Investieren von so viel Arbeit ist zwar lästig, aber solch ein Aufwand wird von einem mobilen F2P-Spiel irgendwie erwartet. Es sollte durchaus Spieler geben, die nach dem Update aktiv auf diese Edelsteine hinarbeiten.

Ansonsten beinhaltet der heute kommende Patch für Diablo Immortal auch noch eine Reihe von anderen Änderungen. Dazu gehören ein Halloween-Event, ein anderes temporäres Ereignis, mehrere neue kosmetische Sets und ein neues System zum Werben von Freunden. Zusätzlich dazu beinhaltet das Update die geplante Anpassung an der Optik von legendären Wappen. Genauere Details zu dem Patch findet ihr in den folgenden Patchnotes.

Hallow’s Wake Limited-Time Event

“Crawling out their graves,
Who knows if they’ll misbehave.
These hellacious haunts like to flaunt,
Their handiwork leaving Sanctuary gaunt.

For 666 years they have reanimated in celebration,
Hang around and you’ll see they live up to reputation.
Don’t be fooled by their late-night revels,
These sinister spookies are worse than devils.”

Can you feel it, adventurer? THEY’RE ALIVE!!

These stones can be traded for spooky rewards, such as the Strawman Sack Mask, Ghosted Emote, and Hallowed Choker Portrait Frame. They can also be used to Trick or Treat with the mysterious Crone or a friend of your choice. Will you bestow a treat upon your friends, or hex them with a devious trick?

Hallowed Dead Cosmetic Set

It wouldn’t be a proper Hallow’s Wake celebration without ethereal garments to strut about in. But why just imitate a monster when you can become one instead?

Waltz Macabre Cosmetic Set

Coming into close confines with death has become commonplace for many of Sanctuary’s denizens. So much so that the macabre is an extension of personhood. For Westmarch’s most rarefied courtiers, it manifests in the form of fashion—the translation of death into a wearable statement piece.

Embrace the grisly machinations of your mind, then wear them on your sleeve with the Waltz Macabre Standard Cosmetic Set, purchasable from the in-game shop for 1,000 Eternal Orbs beginning on October 12 at 3:00 a.m. server time.

Feature Updates

Legendary Crest Aesthetic Update

• The aesthetic of Legendary Crests has been changed to create more distinction between itself and Eternal Legendary Crests. The Elder Rift menu has also been updated so players can easily select between all three crest types and clearly see descriptions for each.

New Resource: Telluric Pearls

• Telluric Pearls are a new resource that can be used to craft Five-Star Legendary Gems. There are currently three ways a player can receive Telluric Pearls:
  • By trading Hilts with Lieutenant Fizriah, the Hilt Vendor in Westmarch.
  • Through participating in limited-time events.
  • From purchasing specific in-game shop bundles, such as Seeker’s Supplies and Rift-Runner’s Supplies. The Seeker’s Supplies bundle will now refresh in the shop every Monday and Thursday instead of every three days.

Defend the Vault Queue

• Immortals can now join a queue to Defend the Vault. Players will need to assemble a party of four Immortals and head to the Vault in the Hall of Ascension. There, they can enter the queue to defend against a Shadow Raid. While waiting in the queue, players may adventure through Sanctuary freely. Once it is your party’s turn, you’ll be prompted, and if you confirm, you’ll immediately be sent to defend the vault. As parties in the queue are invited to defend the vault, your party will receive updates on your place in line. Immortal teams can re-enter the queue as soon as they finish a defense.

Developer’s Note: Our goal with the implementation of this queue system is to eliminate the need for you to sit at the door to the Vault rapidly clicking to enter or creating a makeshift line with other players. Instead, we wanted players to queue up in an organized system while being able to engage in other activities across Sanctuary as they wait.

Shadows Notifications Tracker

• Players will no longer receive notifications for the Assembly after they have completed it for that day.
• The Shadow Lottery notification can now be turned off. Visit the Notifications tab within the Settings menu to do so.

Dark Clan Leader Substitution

• Dark Clan Leaders may now assign up to two substitute leaders from within their Clan through the Shadow War menu.

Well, what will it be, Trick or Treat?
