Has there been any info from any reliable source as to when the next PTR will occur? My hope is that it will start before the end of season 6 and before the start of season 7.
I'm also curious if season 7 will change gameplay in any significant way other than the Firebird and Archon issues. Will season 7 just be season 6 with a simple Firebird change?
Obviously, the availability of the datamined info tells us that PTR is nearby. I'm pretty sure 2.4.1's PTR started about 1/2 - 2/3 way through S5, so I am expecting PTR to commence any time within the next 2 weeks, assuming that my memory is correct AND that the same pattern is followed. So far we know that 3 sets are being tweaked (Firebird, Akhan and 1000 Storms) and that new legendary items are being added, but this does not rule out the possibility of further changes.
Personally, I'm still waiting for some minor changes, which I had expected during 2.4.1 PTR, such as adding Corrupted Ashbringer to cube and tweaking Magefist. Frostburn and Magefist were added to cube at same time, Frostburn's leg power was tweaked and the 20% dmg bonus was built into it. On the other hand, Magefist just got it's guaranteed fire % roll changed to a leg power roll, which seemed like a job left half-done.
Running around on T13 (GR60 equivalent) on the PTR... I'm already wishing for higher torment levels. Still it should be fun for the beginning of Season 7.

Sad thing, that Blizzard still aint doing anything more with the game. Just keep on giving us more torment levels eh..
I still cannot buy into this logic.
We pay no sub fee, yet we get massive free content like Kanai's Cube among constant fine tuning.
Some day you people will appreciate how they are trying to make D3 the best they can without bringing in a dime. (This likely means they want to keep consumers happy for either Xpac 2 or D4, very likely Xpac 2)

I dont want more free content. I want a new game or another expansion! I'm sorry if i was not being clear.. at all :-)
A big fat patch is all good and we all love free stuff. But there aint much else than the feeling of creating a new character for the first time in a brand new game. Especially when its from Blizzard since they have a habit of producing some realy nice AAA titles, so we've come to expect a certain standard.
Diablo 3 is a old and dull experience nowadays. I want that feeling of wonder and mystery that only a new title or expansion can give.
Well I disagree that it is old and dull. But I am creative and try millions of build concepts and theorycraft when I play.
In regards to what you want, you should be happy when you see small patches like this then, because that is a tell tale sign that they are in fact working on another project, whether it be Xpac2 or D4 or another Diablo game. Whenever you see small tuning patches like this, it is a lock something new is coming/being worked on.
t13 is dumb its as easy as t10 no challenge or special things people will leave game agin after s7 stash tab lol this game has no goal lol go play black desert online ur hours will not be wasted and there is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much to do in that game I bid farewell my 4 years of d3 time to move on
they have been doing this for 4 years dude does not mean anything these small patches are to keep players feeling like new content is coming but its just small minor things like all the patches xcluding ros! diablo3 is dead sorry to say I myself played solid 4 years str8 and am migrating to black desert online! GL on wasting ur time/life in this game.. because I sure did soo many better games out ! go xplore
You say small tuning. I say first hints of a new small content patch with another new zone and some monsters? At least i thought i saw the notes list some names of some new monsters and that would indicate another zone being added.
Don't even get me started on those new adventure mode zones.. >.<
The monsters are to pay homage to some popular streamers that are helping to carry the games popularity forward. I doubt they are a new zone, more than likely just a rift much like the graveyard rift with the dev crew zombies.
Trust me man, what is going on now are sure fire signs that something bigger is coming in the future, might not be until 2018-2019, but I wager we hear about it at Blizzcon.

S7 will prob get some set changes as seen by the new items added/changes to the affix on them. Some set changes. Its early.
Also every PTR will finish before the next season.
New sets and class or riporino
