New Campaign Chapter - Act V: This new chapter illustrates the effort against Malthael, former Archangel of Wisdom, now embodying the Aspect of Death. Facing foes like Adria and her newfound blood magic, the chapter ends with Malthael being ultimately slain by the Nephalem and the destruction of the Black Soulstone, which means Diablo was once free again.

Adventure Mode: This new game mode is intended to act as Diablo III's endgame. Engage in bounties to obtain exclusive rewards and unlock Nephalem Rifts, fast and randomized dungeons for you or your group to crawl through. You unlock Adventure Mode by completing Reaper of Souls' story mode on Act V at least once.

The Mystic: A new way to customize your gear, Myriam the Mystic can either reroll a specific stat on your equipment or change your gear's appearance, similar to transmogrification in WoW.

New Difficulty Settings: Reaper of Souls made subtle changes on how difficulty works. Monsters now always scale to your level regardless of what difficulty you're in. Higher difficulties will now award better loot.
On Reaper of Souls' launch, difficulties were Normal, Hard, Expert, Master and Torment. Torment has since been expanded, going all the way to Torment XIII!

Hit rating, penetration, resistance, regen, etc.reallyComment by LyssaWoWI'd forgotten about that "real money auction house" in Diablo. What the hell were they thinking when they came up with that? It's hard to beleive that at no point did no one actually look at what they were doing and think "hmm, this might not be a good idea". Imagine if that was still around now with all the loot box/microtransaction drama going on. Blizzard would have been in the sights of many people.Comment by Cr00xYHow the hell someone gets named 'gold expert' ...?Comment by Suz191209I do really miss the old days when you needed rep to enter dungs and have keys that were super cool, I wish they would come up with idea to bring that back as it was not only fun it saved a lot of people just getting boosted in dung.

Really its been 3 years since wow tokens came in wow times does go past so fastComment by NecroposHave you since started paying your monthly subscription with WoW Token?Comment by MahakalahOr be an altoholic. I have 10x 110s and easily get 4+ gold missions a day that reward 8-10k a day total. Usually more. Plus running some WQs and other screwing around (old raids, etc). Pretty easy to keep a subscription rolling even just using the app.
