    Monster Behavior:

    Monster behavior has changed. Compared to previous monsters, enemies are now more responsive, making their behavior less predictable. Furthermore, Blizzard officials stated that monsters will now clearly identify their roles during combat. Improved AI means they won't cluster together for elimination, significantly reducing player farming efficiency.

    Elite monsters will spawn minions with affixes, and 20 new monster affixes have been added to learn. Previous tactics and strategies may no longer be applicable!

    Potion And Healing Rework:

    The reworked potion and healing mechanics are now more adaptable to high-level encounters. The base potion capacity of four potions now functions as a component of overall health. When a potion is used, players can restore up to 35% of their health. Consuming a potion requires a 30-second cooldown before a new potion is available. Enhancements also grant healing over time.

    Item System:

    The item system has undergone a comprehensive overhaul, most notably the redesign of Master Forge and Tempering. Players will now have a clearer view of their forging progress and greater control. Following player feedback, players can also select their desired affixes during the Tempering process. When an item's quality reaches the highest level, it will be Sanctified and imbued with Angelic Power. The cost of this process remains the same as before, so there's no need to worry about Diablo 4 Gold.

    World Boss Changes:

    In Diablo 4 PTR 2.5.0, Duriel, Andariel, and Belian will become new world bosses. Lesser demons will also challenge in the Seasonal Realm, and Azmodan can now be summoned in multiple locations.

    Capstone Dungeons Return:

    Capstone dungeons have returned, with five Capstone Dungeons available for players to conquer:

    • Torrid Menagerie

    • Hellish Descent

    • Unseen Awakening

    • Tempest Oasis

    • Sins of the Many

    Difficulty levels increase from top to bottom. Refer to the game's recommended level to decide whether to take on these challenges. However, the difficulty level does not change based on your current level.
