Season Journey Rewards

Tyvalir explained the reasoning for the Seasonal Reward structure on a post today. Essentially they want the big pet reward to be accessible by most players, and the fancy portraits to take slightly more work. Read below.

Pretty much this.

We want the cosmetic pet obtained through the Season Journey to be within reach of most players, so we placed it at the end of the Chapters part of this new feature.

If you love to test your mettle, that's where Tiers and their exclusive portrait frames come in. These provide a degree of prestige not found elsewhere, meaning other players who see your character portrait will immediately know what you've achieved.

(Also, just as a side note, we'll be detailing more of the philosophy behind the Season Journey in an upcoming blog post, so keep an eye out for it!)

Chainer has uploaded a build guide for Barbarians on Patch 2.3 based on Whirldwind and Furious Charge, great for Torment 10 speed farming. Great source of information for Barbarian players wanting to prepare for Patch 2.3. Check it out!
