Diablo 3’s 2.1 patch is here for the PS4 and Xbox and it
doesn’t just contain some bug-fixes, it comes rife with new game elements and
features. The announcement was made by Stephanie Johnson, Diablo III’s
community manager, who called the patch the first major content update for
Diablo III: Reaper of Souls – Ultimate Evil Edition. Indeed, in the wake of the
said patch, players will be able to level up their legendary gems, they’ll be
able to explore the deepest and darkest nooks and crannies of the Cesspools, they
will gain access to The Vault and the Greater Rifts will take on a new meaning
for those looking to push their heroes as far as possible.
As far as new features go, there’s a whole list of
these in the new update. When players log into the game, a “what’s new” screen
pops up which fills them in on the plethora of novelties brought by patch 2.1.
The Vault, another new feature, is essentially a new
area where lavish treasures can be collected. The Vault can only be entered
after a Treasure Goblin is killed though. Treasure Goblins are small creatures
perpetually after glittery/shiny things. Baroness Greed is the boss of the new
area.
Vault portals cannot be found in the Nephalem Rifts or
Greater Rifts, and they can only be accessed when playing in adventure mode.
New Greater Rifts have apparently been added through the
patch as well, and they can be accessed through the Nephalem Obelisk.
The Cesspool is essentially a new environment, created
for the Nephalem and Greater Rifts.
Ramaladni’s Gift is a yet another new feature, which
allows players to add sockets to weapons without such sockets and last but not
least, the Legendary Gem can be socketed into amulets and rings in order to
give players new abilities.
