Patch 2.1 PTR Details

New Seasonal Mechanic

With the major overhauls done in the previous seasons, it is possible that the Patch 2.1 PTR may reveal the new seasonal mechanic for Season 7. However, there is also a high chance that the PTR will only focus on testing Patch 2.1 and not the Season 7 mechanic like previous PTRs.

Class Balance Changes

There's a high chance that another Class balance update will be introduced in the Season 7 PTR, especially with most Spiritborn builds relying on bugged interactions. The developers have repeatedly stated that they do not plan to nerf classes during a season, but will nerf or fix builds that rely on unintentional interactions in the following season.
