SEASON 30: THE LORDS OF HELL

Though the Black Soulstone has been destroyed, lingering fragments of The Lords of Hell once contained therein still persist in Sanctuary. These Soul Shards hold immense power—power that once belonged to the Prime and Lesser Evils. Cunning Nephalem who find and wield these Soul Stones must exercise caution. Power can be alluring, and the road to the Burning Hells is paved with good intentions...

Season 30 is the first to utilize our new Season theme rotation system, reintroducing The Lords of Hell theme first seen in Season 25. Players can embrace evil by infusing themselves with the essences of Hell’s Lords using Soul Shards. Players will embark on their Season Journey to discover and upgrade demonic Soul Shards based on the seven Lords of Hell. By embodying a Prime and Lesser Evil, players will inflict new forms of pain and suffering on the demons of Sanctuary. We can't wait for players to get their hands on Soul Shards to start unlocking their true power.

Nephalem can find 7 unique Soul Shards(based on the seven Lords of Hell), which give players demonic new powers. One of 3 Prime Evil Soul Shards can be equipped into Helms and one of 4 Lesser Evil Soul Shards can be equipped into Weapons. Each Soul Shard can be upgraded three times using a new seasonal-exclusive consumable, the Hellforge Ember.

Soul Shards and Hellforge Embers can drop from anywhere in Sanctuary, but Soul Shards have a higher chance to drop from Bosses. Soul Shards cannot be traded, but can be salvaged or utilized in Caldesann’s Despair. You may only equip one Prime Evil Soul Shard and one Lesser Evil Soul Shard at a time. Lastly, Soul Shards and Hellforge Embers only drop in Seasonal play, and will not transfer to your non-seasonal character when the season ends. For a look into the capabilities for each of the Soul Shard powers look below.

PATCH NOTES

Below you’ll find patch notes for the upcoming update to Diablo III: Patch 2.7.7. It goes live on January 9.

Note: All changes apply to all versions of Diablo III, including PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC unless otherwise indicated.

New Permanent Features: Rites of Sanctuary and Visions of Enmity

Back by popular demand, the Rites of Sanctuary and Visions of Enmity Season themes have become a permanent fixture of Diablo III. While we are extremely excited to make these features always available, to ensure your time slaying demons remains balanced, we had to make some adjustments to the bonuses provided by the Altar of Rites. When existent alongside Visions of Enmity, continual Season themes, and adjustments to Class balance, we felt the game’s balance would benefit from adjustments to Rites of Sanctuary. Here’s what has changed:

  • Force
    • Decreased damage to +100 from +200.
  • Shadow
    • Decreased Missile Damage Reduction to 5% from 25%.
  • Exodus
    • Decreased Movement Speed (Uncapped) to +10% from +25%.
  • Command
    • Increased damage against Elites reduced to 5% from 15%.
  • Tenacity
    • Increased damage reduced to 5% from 20%.
  • Reverence
    • Reduces damage taken from Elites by 5%, previously 25%.
  • Numb
    • 25% Decreased Melee Damage Reduction to 5% from 25%.
  • Nature
    • Highest elemental skill damage bonus increased by 5%, previously 10%.
  • Prowess
    • Increased damage against Elites reduced to 5% from 20%.
  • Roar
    • Damage done to Bosses increased to 5% from 50%.

    • Chance to Dodge increased by 5%, previously 15%.

  • Father
    • Power pylon has been removed from random Shrine effect.
  • Mother
    • Triune of Love Circle now increases damage by 50%, previously 100%.

Developer’s Note: In pursuit for all of Diablo III’s systems to feel both fun and challenging, the Altar of Rites adjustments were made to maintain a sense of progression throughout playing while not coming into conflict with other features.

  • Empowered shrine has been removed from the random Shrine effect of the Father Seal from Altar of Rites.

Feature Changes

  • Chilltara now has a 20% drop rate of Gibbering Gemstone.
  • Whisper of Atonements can now be salvaged for 1–3 Forgotten Souls.
  • Orek's Dream encounter rate buffed from 1 to 4%.
  • Gelatinous Sire goblins no longer spawn from the Goblin Shrine inside Echoing Nightmares.

Class Balance Changes

Striking a middle ground between fun and balanced is our top priority when it comes to Classes. As we mentioned in our Season 29 article, going forward, a series of iconic themes from Seasons past will be reintroduced roughly every 3 months. The below Class balances changes were made to ensure each Class remains both fun and balanced as powerful Season themes return to Diablo III.

Developer’s Note: Over time, we have seen some builds gain a massive amount of power, leaving other builds behind and in need of updates. The Wizard's Meteor has dominated the battlegrounds of Sanctuary for far too long, as well as some other Sets. We believe to have found a good avenue for each build to perform in and have improved Sets across each class to work towards this goal.
