Major Features
Patch 2.4 introduces the new Set Dungeons feature, specific stages designed to challenge players in the usage of each of their class sets. It also introduces players to an entirely new area, Greyhollow Island, along with expanded old zones, the Royal Quarters on Leoric's Manor and the Eternal Woods on the Ruins of Sescheron.
Other notable features of this patch include the Action Combat system, many user interface changes and improvements, more Stash space, major rebalancing and redesigning of sets, tons of changes to monsters and rift guardians, along with the usual skill balancing and many new legendaries!
Season 5 - starting on January 15th, Friday, 5PM PDT Americas, 5 PM CEST Europe, and 5 PM KST Asia - brings a completely revamped Season Journey. There are no more seasonal Legendary items, but players will have access to other exclusive items like cosmetic rewards like Pennants, Pets and Wings!

Classes, Monsters & Items
As always, the patch brings major balance revisions to all classes and their items, this time focusing on revamping unused sets and tweaking old ones so they can be competitive. There are revamped Sets, new Legendaries and skill balancing for all classes - Crusaders, Monks, Witch Doctors, Demon Hunters, Barbarians and Wizards.
There's also a lot of changes to item mechanics, neutral Legendaries and Sets, monsters, Bosses and Rift Guardians - all under General Balancing.
Ya really, unless there's a double RORG function it can't really fit in even if it was buffed to be like an awesome utility set for everyone.
I hoped I could see now what items I already cubed with this patch :[Found out how you see it
IT'S HAPPENING
Why does the banner still links for the PTR Patch Notes
I know they're virtually the same, but....
The EU counter is off by one hour. Need to add one hour since it starts 17.00 CET (GMT +1).
Countdown timer for America is off by an hour too. Shows it going live at 5 Mountain Standard Time for me, when it should it be 6 MST.
Yeah it's missing one hour.
At the time I'm writing this, it is 12:21 PM PDT and the countdown is displaying 27 hours 39 minutes
at 12:21 tomorrow (in 24 hours) the timer would have only 3 hours 39 minutes left, which is at 4 PDT and the season only starts at 5 PDT.
50 minutes til and I haven't decided if my seasonal character will be wizard or crusader this time. May just flip a coin and let a piece of metal decide.
