Do not nerf this. Being able to clear any zone at lvl 99 is HUGE for endgame. I don't want to have to 85 zones and Baal/Nilithak/Diablo. This is an amazing change.
My thoughts: 1. I like the introduction of Terror Zones. I'm not a person that "races to 99", or have ever had a 99 level character, but the thing that excites me is new areas/monsters to farm for TC87 items. This makes it more exciting for me to full clear maps, pop all pop-ables, and not just focus on a few areas and target farming champion/unique monsters. 2. I too would like a bit more graphical change when you enter a Terror Zone. I do like the sound effect & the screen shake, but I would love them to lean more into a stylistic change. Within the feedback forum I suggested to lean into the purple they are using and to add more "Terror" 3D elements. For example, what if within the Terror Zone we now have an overgrowth of dark evil vines on the walls, and cracks shining purple light shining through. I too like other suggestions others have mentioned such as the colors of the monsters to maybe a black or something, always night in Terror Zones. Overall I think the general feedback is to make it feel more "Terror" within the world, not just a few icons and sub headers changes. 3. I would like Terror Zones to be an automatic Player 8 area too, no matter how many players are in the game. This will increase the difficulty, making it more challenging, and more of a "Terror Zone" then just a "Zone you should now farm".
I watched the first 2 hours in the Jail and the Palace and the density was so bad I'm not sure it was worth running... hopefully they actually make it like an invasion, or as many as half of these locations aren't going to be farmed.
I don't know what kind of team they have working on the D2 and Starcraft remasters, but this is the best best long-term support of a game I have ever seen. All these carefully rolled-out updates and bugfixes, including fixes of long-time twenty year-old bugs no one even expected to be fixed, is insane. D2 has always been my favorite ARPG of all time, but now no one can argue this game's glorious status and heritage. After watching Blizzard devolve into nothing but WoW support, monetizing SC2 to death, proudly sticking Call of Duty on the launcher's home page, and questionable mobile games and Hearthstone type stuff, I had all but given up hope of these classic games being done justice, but my faith in humanity has been utterly restored and I'm so glad to be alive during this golden age of gaming
I dont think you know about the Sc2 part, the community begged blizzard for cosmetic monetizations and we got it. It was not monetized to "death". The game is not dead and the monetizations were all entirely cosmetic.
@@zachk.530 Which is single player content that they had not developed yet? The expansions are literally the old business model. You get campaign, multiplayer and custom games with 1 game. With each expansion offering 1 more campaign, multiplayer with new units and custom games with improved assets. Literally was the same way with Sc1 and Warcraft 3. As for the mission packs, they are cheaper than a new expansion and are just another campaign. I dont know what your issue with them is.
Even if @ahayzo is right and they only intend it for online now, Blizzard can absolutely be pressured into doing this for SP. It only makes sense that it would be available offline, for the same reason they added the players8 command. We deserve to suffer as much as anyone else.
I was just toying around with this and it looks like as soon as you kill every monster in the zone it automatically switches to a different zone to terrorize, so you can bounce around to different areas in the same game.
Not to take the wind out of your sails, but I'm pretty sure that's not how it works. It changes every full hour for everyone, so there's basically a fixed timer running in the background for everyone.
@@jackel1994 Oh damn, it must have just been a coincidence that I cleared lower kurast at the same time the zones were switching :( .. so that must mean that every game you make will have the same terror zone if it's within the same hour?
All sounds great. Missing a few big main things tho from this patch. Please increase stash inventory space, max character limit from 20 to 40, add loot filter, and make certain items stackable. Thank you BLIZZARD!
People have a way stashing absolute trash and then saying they need more space. I can understand a rune page, gems, maybe keys, stacking would be nice. Everything else idk, use it or get rid of it.
I'm kinda into this. Now if they remove the bot problem the game would be amazing again. Tal tombs, cows, LK, spider cavern (i bet this will be a good farming area), Trav and Chaos are all going to be main farming areas when they are terror zones.
Legacy Blizzard and its current iteration have been saying they are handling the bot problem with nothing to show for it for a decade+. D4 will have bots just like all of it's predecessors.
The bot problem is better than it used to be on legacy bnet. Now we can level to 99 like we used to be able to pre 1.10. (not grinding Baal for 1000s of games)
@@kerwynpk I would love "ssf only" games if they made loot available to each person and only for the things they kill (or do substantial damage too for act bosses) Would allow you to gear up alone, but still play p8 games when you want
Remember that the MAXIMUM is 99, but if you make the game with a lvl 65 character, the monsters will still only get plus 5 levels, right? wouldn't you need to be at least lvl 94 to spawn any lvl 99 mobs?
This better work in SP too, and please fix the issue of personalizing items in SP. I understand the online console problems here, especially for the Switch, but Offline. "Personalized" is lame af.
I was really hoping when they said it was big change that it would be somthing like currency tab for runes and keys or some sort of charm inventory like in path of diablo, but this is great too.
Level 99 cows?! WE BACK ON THAT COW FARM BABY, JUST LIKE THE GOOD LORD INTENDED This is actually going to make the other 99% of the game playable and useful. Huge improvement to the game. Almost a minor in-game event if cows, tower, trav, chaos sanct etc or other high density zones are triggered. I wonder if this means the countess would be far more likely to drop higher runes at level 90+.
On the countess but, probably not because her rune drops are specifically pulled from an set of drops independent of monster level. I guess the normal 99 super unique drops would go up but it wouldn’t be any better than farming other 99s
@TABARNACUL countess rune drop table is independent of her mlvl. Hell countess rune drop only goes up to a gul, but countess herself (the monster kill) can give a Lo in hell. this would push her personal drop rate up to Zod but the guaranteed rune drop that makes countess good would still just be gul max. She would have the same zod drop rate as any other super unique with the level to drop a zod.
This is really exciting. Not only does it add a bit of variation to end game play it also adds a little bit of extra challenge as you're climbing the 99 ladder. Does this also mean all the monsters in the terrorized zones post lvl 85 will now have the ability to drop high end uniques and sets? I've heard some skepticism but I'm genuinely excited for this!
With the amount of bug fixes and the finesse at dealing with multiple end game issues in 1 straightforward solution, the D2R team have really outdone themselves. They have resurrected more than just D2, they have resurrected the Blizzard of old, lets hope their talent rubs off on the rest of Blizzard. Well-done D2R team! 👏👏👏
Another thing to note is immunities, you can now easily level a javazon to late 70s in nm without a lot of gearing, and maybe get good runes in the process?
"Skills can now always be set to the left or right slots, regardless of if you meet the requirements to use them" Does that mean you can make teleport on the left button while having some sort of defensive aura (like salvation) on the right (or vice-versa)?
Seems like a great patch. It's such a little thing, but I keep hoping that they'll fix items that provide charged Valkyrie so that it lasts for non-Amazons again.
I like the idea. Tons and tons of time at end game farming now at least gives us options of other areas in the game instead. Sounds good to me. I kind of wonder if the meta will turn into ignoring areas with low density and just high density areas, but still. Just for fun it offers variety.
No Terror Zones for single /offline sucks. Here I thought I would have to farm just diablo, Baal, and Nilathok on reaching 95----but NO. Don't they understand that a ton of players are solo/offline?
Greetings, Since Terror Zones came into play on Diablo 2 Resurrected made my gameplay a lot more interesting. Been a Slayer since it first came out back in the day and I love this game now more and more each passing day. I'll never tire of this game. Cheers to the creators. Cheers to you MrLlamaSC.
yea and the wierd bug that dosent let u make more than 20 character... its wierd that its not really being talked about i guess not many ppl whants to pvp or play hardcore and soft
I want a 2nd weapon slot for a mercenary with hotkey for swaping, cuz there are so many underutilized runewords that are good for "that one small ocasion" but we just dont bother with manual swap. plz
As a series x player those controller related issues are a nice fix. They are All things that kinda bug me when playing. The belt population being the big one as it was so inconsistent. It seemed to break at the worst times and the only way to fix it was waypointing somewhere else or tp back to town and even then it only fixed it like half the time.
I've been playing d2 since it was released in my childhood. I am 33 now still playing on Xbox when wife and kids are sleeping, and are amazed of the new stuff coming. I feel I will never have to buy another game ;)

First impression but the terrorized zones need to be a lot more difficult. Was running through one hitting about every monster using the ptr characters and never having any health problems
@@blazedehart2748 see, that’s kind of heartbreaking. It means, other than the Metalgrid change… what did we Solo / Offline Players wait all these Months for, since 2.4 ?? Like what new improvements / gear changes / set changes / fixes (Cow King finally being able to drop his Own Set items, etc)…. are actually coming for Us ? 🙁
@@Fishbro that’s not what I’m saying. They specifically said they had no intention of making it available offline at all. OFC they have to test online. Lol
Metalgrid iron golem is now going to be a must have for every character. Everyone can now create an insight iron golem and keep the merc free to use something else
Not a must have, you still have to decide if the iron golem is worth the +2 skills and potential fcr. Now it is definitely a good option for builds though
To be honest I'd just turn this on from level 1. We know from D3 already that adding an extra challenge always makes you capable of handling it quite easily
Please petition Blizzard to optimize the terror zone: 1. Monsters need to be significantly enhanced, not only level and experience but damage life defense AR resistance. The late game experience is so dull because of the weak monsters. 2.Must add more magic resistance monsters and increase the monster's lighting resistance. Lighting immune can be easily broken making everyone play lighting characters and lighting casters too more powerful. 3. It is a good idea to give every unique boss in the terror zone abilities to cast a curse and an aura. Unique bosses are too weak.
This will change the game for new characters though… have normal Tombs when you are trying to get from 15-24 is going to be way easier to level if it’s a terror zone
@@jakedajuggernaught not at all. 45 lifers were never even super gg, just super rare. Now that they'll be available to all their value will drop significantly. Super gg items will always have insane demand so even with a decent supply their value will be high. Look at bers
I think the biggest drawback to this system is that you only have a 1:36 chance of getting the zone you want, and so far there isn't any way to predict when it will happen. If your a Javazon and are literally drooling over the prospect of max level cows, how disappointed are you going to be when you hear that it happened at 4am and you have to wait another 36h to get another shot at it. In general this is going to put more power back into the D2L P8 generalist builds, and work against the new specialist builds the devs were trying to implement. Its a refreshing change to endgame, specifically the grind to 99, but it feels like something only a handful of completely geared characters are going to really benefit from.
the solution is to build and switch to multiple characters, when one zone gets activated that is more optimized to a certain build, switch characters respectively
@@Jarheads4Yeshua I disagree. Spreading out your characters and gear means overall reduced character level and power. The solution is to go back to the old D2L P8 builds (hammers, Infinity) or maybe the tier 2 builds (Zerker, Pnova, Java) and play through as many areas as you can. it just puts more power back into the standard "Meta" builds as you are going to need a generalist to spend more than a handful of hours per 36 productively.
Do not nerf this. Being able to clear any zone at lvl 99 is HUGE for endgame. I don't want to have to 85 zones and Baal/Nilithak/Diablo. This is an amazing change.

@@blazedehart2748 see, that’s kind of heartbreaking. It means, other than the Metalgrid change… what did we Solo / Offline Players wait all these Months for, since 2.4 ?? Like what new improvements / gear changes / set changes / fixes (Cow King finally being able to drop his Own Set items, etc)…. are actually coming for Us ? 🙁
@@Fishbro that’s not what I’m saying. They specifically said they had no intention of making it available offline at all. OFC they have to test online. Lol
Have you been on the PTR? the level 98 paladin got combat skillers with +50 life!
Metalgrid iron golem is now going to be a must have for every character. Everyone can now create an insight iron golem and keep the merc free to use something else
Not a must have, you still have to decide if the iron golem is worth the +2 skills and potential fcr. Now it is definitely a good option for builds though
@@jacksonnadler-block2869 oh i assumed it wouldnt unsummon when you unequipped it
gem, key and rune stacking would be a very nice change
They are so slow. I could code that in few hours, prob even less. Same with balance changes, takes few minutes.
To be honest I'd just turn this on from level 1. We know from D3 already that adding an extra challenge always makes you capable of handling it quite easily
I love having reasons to be in places other than 85 zones
10:40 "Making video, please calm the dog"
...
11:00 Ok!
11:02 Thank you.
How close were I?
Wo during if the mobs will spaen terrorized or if the zone will have additional mobs spawned as terrorists
It actually sounds like it will make 8 person games a lot better for loot distribution. People will be able to spread out within a zone
I'm surprised I haven't seen a mention of the premade character on the PTR called "HereItIsLlama"?
Please petition Blizzard to optimize the terror zone: 1. Monsters need to be significantly enhanced, not only level and experience but damage life defense AR resistance. The late game experience is so dull because of the weak monsters. 2.Must add more magic resistance monsters and increase the monster's lighting resistance. Lighting immune can be easily broken making everyone play lighting characters and lighting casters too more powerful. 3. It is a good idea to give every unique boss in the terror zone abilities to cast a curse and an aura. Unique bosses are too weak.
This will change the game for new characters though… have normal Tombs when you are trying to get from 15-24 is going to be way easier to level if it’s a terror zone
When could we see this on public battlenet?
This is actually really cool and a great addition. I love that they go to 99!
Its not the normal monsters that are 99 - only the uniq monsters. Like Corpsefire in Den of Evil and Cow King in cow level.
This is actually really cool. Super excited
Finally they fix the iron golem with the teleport instead of randomly disappear
That nilithak whip bug wiped out so many ladder racers .
what bug is that?
20 years and counting and they still don't get it.... FINISH CREATING THE 30+ UNIQUES YOU FORGOT TO MAKE.
Terror Zones on PTR are "Ladder Only". Hopefully that's subject to change? Non-ladder needs it just as much as ladder.
Absolutely need an ilvl display for this to make sense
WE NEED THIS IN SP!
well this is gonna make +45 life skillers wayyyyy more common
That's what I thought too
Oh no! GG gear accessible to more people!!!
@@bucsheels2424 the more common things are, the less special it is when you get it
@@jakedajuggernaught not at all. 45 lifers were never even super gg, just super rare. Now that they'll be available to all their value will drop significantly.
Super gg items will always have insane demand so even with a decent supply their value will be high. Look at bers
Seems pretty cool, I probably would have preferred a map system but this is fine too.
I'll come back to play this game when they add additional tabs and stackable runes/gems.
Can finally hit 99 again without grinding face forever just like pre-1.10
Damn was hoping they would add ability to stack crafting materials in stash
I think the biggest drawback to this system is that you only have a 1:36 chance of getting the zone you want, and so far there isn't any way to predict when it will happen. If your a Javazon and are literally drooling over the prospect of max level cows, how disappointed are you going to be when you hear that it happened at 4am and you have to wait another 36h to get another shot at it.
In general this is going to put more power back into the D2L P8 generalist builds, and work against the new specialist builds the devs were trying to implement. Its a refreshing change to endgame, specifically the grind to 99, but it feels like something only a handful of completely geared characters are going to really benefit from.
the solution is to build and switch to multiple characters, when one zone gets activated that is more optimized to a certain build, switch characters respectively
@@Jarheads4Yeshua I disagree. Spreading out your characters and gear means overall reduced character level and power. The solution is to go back to the old D2L P8 builds (hammers, Infinity) or maybe the tier 2 builds (Zerker, Pnova, Java) and play through as many areas as you can. it just puts more power back into the standard "Meta" builds as you are going to need a generalist to spend more than a handful of hours per 36 productively.
Games crashed 3 times now when "Terror" Starts in the area. Ill give the PTR some time to fix things then explore.
Terror Zone "Trav/MooMooFarm/Arcane" are going to be so Broken
Blizzard. If you see this. Thank you. I am returning next season. This looks so awesome!!!
Finally, an endgame change! I may actually come back and play again now
