Experimentation with the Season of the Forbidden Archives mechanic, with emphasis on finding bugs and testing functionalityĪs with our previous PTRs, this testing period will have a short duration. While that feedback is valuable, it’s best kept separate to ensure we’re reviewing the long-term strength of these sets beyond Season 20. Please note when providing feedback about these class sets to avoid mixing/matching with the Season buff, mentioned below. Barbarians, Witch Doctors, and Wizards heavily testing their new class sets and item changes. With another new game-impacting Seasonal buff and entirely new class sets to experiment with, we know it’ll be very tempting to get your hands on as much as you can! To help guide your focus, here are our priorities in terms of what we’d most like to see tested. Clearly separating these discussions allows your designers and quality assurance testers to home in on the information they need most. You can also buy customized gear we’re focused on testing from the special PTR vendor, D’jank Miem, who will exchange Blood Shards for class-specific bags full of Legendary items that need your testing!įeedback should be provided in the PTR Feedback forum while bug reports should be provided in the PTR Bug Report forum. There will be two buffs active to help you on your PTR journey: increased Legendary drop rate and double Blood Shard drops. During the course of PTR, there may be periodic maintenances, outages, hotfixes, or minor patches. We’ll be conducting the Patch 2.6.8 PTR over the course of two weeks, starting Thursday, February 6.
Please note that this is a preview for PTR content, which is subject to change.
Check out the preliminary patch notes below and start theorycrafting Patch 2.6.8 is on its way! We’ve got three brand-new class sets to dig into, an armful of Legendary item changes, and a pretty crazy game-changing Season mechanic that’s bound to blow the lid off your traditional build approach.
The two-week PTR testing period for 2.6.8 begins February 6 and we need your help to make Season 20 better than ever!
