I also enjoy seasons for the fresh start and playing with all my friends again. I love that feeling of progressing from rare items to assorted legendary items to finishing a 6-piece set.

While we’re on the topic of Seasons, I want to share some information regarding Season length. We generally feel that Season 1 was on the long side, and that Season 2 was on the short side. We want to strike a balance between having enough points in time when we can all commence this journey together, but also allow enough time for characters to mature. Expect Season 3 to be at least 4 months long. While the exact end date is not yet known, we plan on once again giving 2 weeks’ notice before Season 3 ends.

ZiggyD Interviews Wyatt Cheng

ZiggyD uploaded an interview he made with Wyatt Cheng on Patch 2.2, among other subjects. He asks a number of community suggested questions like if we can expect future patches to be as big as 2.2, what happened with Mortick's Brace, power creep and stash space. An awesome interview definitely worth checking out!

We are aware of an issue affecting Mac players who use the Wacom Tablet Peripheral while in-game. The description of the issue appears to be that you will have duplicate cursors while moving. Our Quality Assurance team has entered a bug for the issue and are currently reviewing potential resolutions.

As a workaround, this issue only presents itself in Fullscreen. Setting your resolution to Windowed or Windowed Fullscreen mode will resolve the issue.

1. Press Esc  to bring up the Game Menu.
2. Click Options.
3. Select Windowed or Windowed (Fullscreen) from the Display dropdown.
4. Select Apply or Accept to commit the changes.

Please note that the only official supported peripherals for Diablo III on Mac are Keyboard and Mouse, which may delay or prevent a future resolution. We'll provide an update as soon as we know additional information. Thank you!
