Possible missing buffs after patch? GGG please take a look
Maybe i missed it but I don't recall seeing if GGG is going to replace the permanent buffs we were able to get during cruel campaign now that there will be no more cruel campaign? Below is a list of those rewards achieved during acts 1-3 cruel. If I missed it, my bad.
Act 1 cruel: BOSS - Beira of the Rotten Pack: +10% Cold Resistance Act 1 cruel: BOSS - The Crowbell: Book of Specialisation (+2 Weapon Set Skill Points) Act 1 cruel: Una's Lute (inside Una's Lute Box in her hut): (+2 Weapon Set Skill Points) Act 1 cruel: BOSS - Candlemass, the Living Rite: +5% to Maximum Life Act 2 cruel: BOSS - Kabala, Constrictor Queen: Book of Specialisation (+2 Weapon Set Skill Points) Act 2 cruel: "Offering to Amrit" Quest: +30% increased Charm Charges Gained or 15% increased Life Recovery from Flasks Act 2 cruel: "Tradition's Toll" Quest Reward: Book of Specialisation (+2 Weapon Set Skill Points) Act 2 cruel: Sisters of Garukhan (Environmental Object): +10% to Lightning Resistance Act 3 cruel: BOSS - Mighty Silverfist: Book of Specialisation (+2 Weapon Set Skill Points) Act 3 cruel: Corpse Snake Venom (Quest): +10% to Chaos Resistance / +5 to All Attributes / +15% reduced Slowing Potency of Debuffs on You Act 3 cruel: BOSS - Ignagduk, the Bog Witch: +40 to Maximum Spirit Act 3 cruel: BOSS - Blackjaw, the Remnant: +10% to Fire Resistance Act 3 cruel: BOSS - Mektul, the Forgemaster: Reforging Bench Act 3 cruel: "Blood Sacrifice" Quest Reward: Book of Specialisation (+2 Weapon Set Skill Points) 97 Blood Mage, 96 Gemling, 96 Deadeye, 93 Invoker, 92 Amazon, 92 Stormweaver, 91 Smith of Kitava Last bumped on Aug 27, 2025, 1:12:49 PM

"The first part of Act 4 is divided into 8 islands, each containing its own subset of zones. The player can visit these islands in any order.
Each area has a quest objective, however only three islands will contain the requisite main quest objectives required to progress through the campaign. These are randomized with each new league. The area level in these islands will scale with act progression." Lot of stuff there, pretty sure we won't miss anything, expecially weapon skill points. Edit: reforging bench is on act 3 normal not cruel, right? Last edited by IILU81II#8410 on Aug 27, 2025, 8:35:28 AM

" I understand the new content/areas/islands. The reason I am asking is for confirmation from GGG that these very important buffs were not overlooked (things happen). Hopefully someone from GGG can chime in with some real feedback. " I believe you are correct. You can do that one in normal or cruel 97 Blood Mage, 96 Gemling, 96 Deadeye, 93 Invoker, 92 Amazon, 92 Stormweaver, 91 Smith of Kitava Last edited by The_Gadget#2563 on Aug 27, 2025, 8:48:55 AM

Reforging Bench is the reward for killing the Hammer guy in that lava level in Act 3.
I am guessing there will be new rewards for doing some stuff in Act 4. As to whether or not they will be enough to match the rewards we used to have. That's unclear. But there are plenty of other changes including passive tree and support gems that are going to mess with your old characters anyway. So it's probably not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, it might just mean a downgrade or upgrade in regards to your current waystone tier. |

" I'm sorry but these permanent buffs are a boost regardless of what waystone tier or level your character is at. I don't think it's too much to ask GGG if they have thought about these buffs and if they have plans to add them back through new content. +10% Cold Resistance +10% to Fire Resistance +10% to Lightning Resistance +10% to Chaos Resistance / +5 to All Attributes / +15% reduced Slowing Potency of Debuffs on You +40 to Maximum Spirit +12 Weapon Set Skill Points +5% to Maximum Life +30% increased Charm Charges Gained or 15% increased Life Recovery from Flasks 97 Blood Mage, 96 Gemling, 96 Deadeye, 93 Invoker, 92 Amazon, 92 Stormweaver, 91 Smith of Kitava
