Hey Diamond, Eternal and Unique Item Creator Supporters,

I am currently trying to get the 1.0.1 patch set up and ready for final changes for deployment on Wednesday.

This patch also brings us into the Season 5 races. This season the race reward alternate art was made by Eunyoung. George, who made the alternate art awards for Season 4 is making the alternate art awards for the upcoming PVP tournaments.

As we have lots of new players in the game, the season will start with fairly basic races in the first week. Week two will introduce Descent: Champions (the follow-up to Descent). In the third week, the PVP season will start.

Upcoming Uniques

Rory is starting to get the set of 1.0.2 uniques organised. 1.0.1 has a set of uniques that will mostly see use in high level play.

We were also hoping to get a new unique map in 1.0.1 but weren’t able to get any ready in time. We have one close to completion and a handful that will probably see the light of day in 1.0.3 and 1.0.4.

Here is some 3d art for an upcoming monster:
