Blizzard is holding another PTR (Public Test Realm) for Diablo 4, testing some of the new features and content that will be arriving in Season 7 next year. Here’s everything Diablo 4 players on PC will be able to preview during the 2.1 update test period, which will run December 3-10.
One of the major new features previewed in the 2.1 PTR is the Armory, a new feature that will allow players to swap between different builds easily. The Armory lets you save, load, and name your favorite character builds, with five different built slots allotted per character. Loadouts will save a character’s equipped items, Paragon Board and Glyphs, skill selections, and class mechanic. Switching between them will display the relevant details at a glance.
2.1 will also let players master Witchcraft, with three new schools of Hawezar sorcery to learn. These include Eldritch, which focuses on destructive energies and polymorphy; Psyche, a defensive magic based on mind and spirit; and Growth & Decay, a type of magic based on the dichotomy of healing and harming.
