Diablo Immortal Fractured Plane LTE
In addition to the new Legendary items, we also have some events to look forward to. The one we’re looking forward to is called Fractured Plane. In this 15-floor gauntlet, players start without their usual gear, gems, and skills. Players will get pre-selected skills for their class, and must rely on skill and luck to find new gear and progress through the floors.
Earn Chaos Coins and spend them at the Chaos Broker to pick up new items or Shards of Fortune, which increase your magic find to get better loot. Players who get through all 15 floors without dying more than five times can claim a reward. You’ll get to choose six of the Legendary items you found during the run, and one will be awarded at random to carry out of the Fractured Plane with you.
Adventurers can learn more about the upcoming update on the official Diablo Immortal blog post.
