Fractured Plane’s New Twists: Random Classes & Better Loot
Introduction
If you’ve spent time with Diablo Immortal, you know that the Fractured Plane can feel like one of the lengthier parts of the game. After a while, running through those stages without new features got stale. Luckily, the latest update adds more variety, extra attributes on higher-tier equipment, and a surprise: a single class is rotated in for everyone to try.
What Changed in the Fractured Plane?
The standout shift is how gear scales up. Two-star legendary items now come with a second legendary perk, and three-star or above items can add magic attributes. As a result, it’s more fun to chase down better gear. Instead of praying for small improvements, you might stumble upon serious boosts that reshape your run.
On top of that, every player is locked into the same class during the event. Skills and affixes shuffle each round, so you’ll likely discover combos you might never have tried otherwise. It keeps each attempt fresh—and might help you pick your next class if you decide to swap.
Charms and New Hell Difficulty
Fractured Charms drop within the Plane and last for the entire event period, adding an extra layer of strategy. They vanish once the event wraps up, but they stay put even if your Fractured Plane progress resets before that. Clear the Fractured Plane completely, and you’ll unlock the new Hell difficulty for even greater challenges (and hopefully better spoils).
Gameplay Highlights
- Random Classes: Being pushed to play a different class is surprisingly fun. You’ll learn new skills, find interesting builds, and might even stumble upon your next main.
- Enhanced Gear: Two-star items bring extra power, and three-star or better can add magic attributes for real breakthroughs in your run.
- Charm Boosts: Fractured Charms grant added perks, and these charms stay with you during the whole event. They help smooth out tough encounters.
- Costume Carry-Over: If you have class-bound cosmetics, they appear in the Plane too. It’s a nice touch that ties your main character’s style into the event.
My Short Test Run
When I jumped in, I was handed the Demon Hunter. At first, I felt slow and out of sync, but the skills I earned were surprisingly handy. Dropping Sentries and using Rain of Vengeance filled screens with constant damage, and upgraded gear quickly transformed weak spots into advantages. Of course, I had some close calls—those frozen zones can get intense—but getting better loot along the way felt worthwhile.
Final Thoughts
The Fractured Plane was overdue for something new, and these tweaks deliver. Random classes keep each run lively, gear upgrades feel more exciting, and charms offer a little bonus strategy. If you haven't tried Diablo Immortal in a while, this might be a perfect time to jump back in and test the waters.
