Blizzard aims to encourage players to engage more with Masterworking without the worry of material depletion in the early game stages. Additionally, the patch has temporarily disabled DirectStorage on PC due to performance issues, while a new Season 9 PTR has begun, bringing fresh endgame content and dungeon changes.
