    Timezones can be annoying to figure out, so to simplify: it’ll be live when this comment is 8 hours old.

    Edit. It’s on now but they’re going on about Immortal instead of d4

    Edit 2. Immortal bullshit still going on

    Edit 3. patch today, helltide chests can drop uniques

    Edit 4. Season of Malignant / S1 talk going on

    New story stuff related to season i.e. new boss, events “beyond” main story. Season starts in Kyovashad

    New powers

    Elites can spawn as Malignant versions, killing them & using an item causes a more powerful elite spawning - beating tast stage elite gets you a socketable malignant heart “gem” granting season specific powers.

    32 malignant powers to be available.

    Only fits to infected sockets, 3 colored sockets to match, 4 heart types with 1 being prismatic/fits all

    Higher world tiers - Stronger hearts

    Specific dungeons, malignant tunnels, with more malignant elites besides just ones found in open world. End of the dungeons lets you choose the colour of the heart / malignant enemy

    New uniques and legendaries - Will also be added to Eternal realm, not just seasonal

    July 18 season patch, changes available on eternal

    July 20 season starts, realms open and charactet creation available

    Battle pass and season journey with 7 chapters

    Item and aspect rewards (some for codex of power that aren’t available as dungeon unlocks)

    Season rewards favour which progresses battle pass

    Chapters can be “complete” without doing everything, f.ex. you dont have to do pvp

    Everyone has access to battle pass and seasonal journey without paying.

    Future seasons might start in other cities/hubs

    Battle pass rewards include cosmetics, horse armour, new emotes. Lots of free stuff, but you can pay battle pass upgrade, gets you just cosmetics

    Unlockable boost stuff for alts in season

    Edit 5. I gotta go so anything past this point, not gonna keep updating

    Edit 6. Okay back, missing anything before this up to edit5 point.

    Seasons last 12 weeks / 3 months-ish

        Yeah UTC is good in general but I guess some people don’t even know their own timezone, so you know.
