Hello friends! As I announced a last week, 7.0 is a bit behind schedule due to unforeseen health issues. Even though the 7.0 patch beta test will be starting in a couple of weeks for subscribers, Annihilus is quite dead right now due to everyone waiting on the actual release.
Getting straight to the point, we are considering a "special" ladder reset / season to tide everyone over who is waiting on the official 7.0 release, we are calling this a challenge ladder. This reset would be very short, going for about a month or so or a little over, lets say until the first week of July at the longest. It would be on the current 6.1.1 patch with some slight modifications. Here is what we are considering to change in the patch:
- Hadriel would be restricted to effects, dyes, and tokens.
- The game would be modified in certain ways to make things harder than they usually would be, examples being boss fights would have 2 of the boss, instead of 1. For example, 2 Reziarfgs at the end of the Worldstone Event, or 2 Cthulhus.
- Double Inferno Cow Density.
- Potentially increased Monster difficulty, mostly damage / health.
- Increased experience LOSS on death, including on normal.
There could be more changes we make to make it a bit more interesting, so feel free to post and suggest any ideas! The whole point of this is to give people something fun to do while waiting on 7.0, so any suggestions that would take time to do would be counterproductive since it would take away from the 7.0 patch, so keep things simple!
As a reward, it will once again be the first person to hit 99 (Across softcore or hardcore, not both). But due to the short amount of time and the new challenges, the reward will be more than usual. The first person to hit 99 would get 10,000 Gold, no 2nd or 3rd place prize.
So the question is, would you be interested in a short Challenge Ladder?
