- The general chance for an Elixir to drop from Elite monsters has been reduced.
- The minimum roll for a Legendary affix on an Ancestral item is now equal to the max roll of a non-ancestral item.
- The acquisition rate of Infernal Compasses has been adjusted. The chance to acquire one from Greater Helltide Chests has been increased.
- The chance for an Infernal Compass to drop from the following sources have been decreased:
- Whispers
- Nightmare Dungeons

- The Pit
- A new Whisper Cache has been added, Collection Keys. This will include 3 Infernal Compasses and 3 Nightmare Dungeon Sigils.
- The overall drop chance of Gem Fragments has been reduced.
- The variance on the roll of a Unique Item’s power has been reduced. Additionally, the variance for the strength of the power further reduces for each Greater Affix present.
Developer’s Note: It doesn’t feel good to get an item that has multiple Greater Affixes with poorly rolled power. This change will make it so that a 4 GA item will always have a good roll on the Unique power.
- The Greater Crafting Whisper Cache has been adjusted.
- It’s now a normal cache, so it will appear more often.
- Now contains 4 times as many crafting materials than other caches would drop.
- No longer contains non-crafting items.
Affix Updates
Items that have affixes that are class specific are no longer class-restricted. Instead, the specific affix is now class-restricted.
Developer’s Note: Any affixes that are inactive due to being incompatible with your class will be explicitly called out as disabled on item tooltips.
- Items and affixes that are not usable by your current class will explicitly denote which classes can use them on the tooltip using class iconography.
- The following list details what affixes are now class restricted or have had the class they are restricted to updated.
Developer’s Note: The majority of these affixes are from class-specific Tempering recipes. To acquire them on other classes the item must be tempered by the class that has access, then transferred.

Summons and Minions Update
All skills that summon entities, such as Necromancer Minions, Druid Companions, Sorcerer Conjurations, are now all tagged as Summon skills for consistency across classes.
- Added the Summoning Skill Tag to Druid Companion Skills, Sorcerer Conjuration Skills, Rogue Shadow Clone, Barbarian Call of the Ancients, in addition to Necromancer Raise Skeleton, Golem, and Army of the Dead.
- Units created by these Skills are now collectively referred to as Summons.
- All damage from Summons is attributed to the player’s character, rather than the Summoned unit.
- Updated wording on various effects to use the new Summons terminology where appropriate. Many effects still interact only with the class specific version of these Summons.
- Updated wording on various effects to remove “You and your Summons” where it is now redundant to specifically call out your Summons.
Developer’s Note: Summoning Skills have behaved inconsistently across the Classes, making it hard to know how to scale their damage or what effects would interact with your Summons. This update aims to standardize their interactions across the board by attributing the damage they deal to the player, rather than the Summoned unit. This means that damage from your Summons will be able to trigger all of your Lucky Hit effects, and interact with all of your damage modifiers, multipliers, and triggers. Note that effects such as Ring of Mendeln still properly increase their damage output based on the damage bonuses you have for the specific Minion type that triggered the effect. Additionally, specific changes for Necromancer have been implemented to reflect these changes, which can be seen above in the relevant section.
Infernal Hordes
- Infernal Compasses have been updated.
- Compasses now stack, based on tier. Maximum stack count is 99.

- The description for the Hardcore Challenges for defeating Andariel, Duriel and Lilith now clarify that this refers to the campaign bosses.
- The tooltip for Yen’s Blessing has been updated to clarify that the free casts triggered by the item do not count as if the player casted the skill, which implied other effects should also trigger in this cases.
Miscellaneous
