Need to have the new Gauntlet and leaderboard system explained for Diablo 4 Season 3? Blizzard has finally listened to fans’ pleas to introduce a leaderboard to Diablo 4, and with the new Season of the Construct, their wishes are being granted.
With the Diablo 4 Season 3 release date on its way, it’s a great time to dive back into the hellish world of Sanctuary. A new season means new loot to get, new enemies to fight, and a new mechanic, the Seneschal Companion to play with. The Gauntlet and Leaderboards are also being added with Season 3. How do they work? We’re here to let you know.
Diablo 4 What is the Gauntlet? New leaderboard system
The Gauntlet is one of the leaderboard systems being introduced with Diablo 4 Season 3. Unlike the permanent leaderboards, the Gauntlet will be changing constantly, allowing for more players to earn the top spot on the board.
The Gauntlet itself is a weekly rotating fixed dungeon that players can run through to earn a place on the Gauntlet’s leaderboard. It’s currently unknown how the scoring for the dungeon will work, and what aspects will earn players the top spot. More is expected to be revealed as The Gauntlet gets closer to being released.
We do know, however, that players who earn the top spot on the leaderboard with the highest scores will earn a permanent spot in the Hall of the Ancients Leaderboard.
The Hall of The Ancients
The Hall of The Ancients is a permanent leaderboard that lets you browse the top 10 players from each week in every season for Diablo 4. This leaderboard will be coming with the arrival of The Gauntlet in Season 3.
When will the Gauntlet be released?
Right now, it’s unknown when The Gauntlet will be coming to Diablo 4, although we do know it will be released sometime during Season 3. More information is expected to come from Blizzard about the release of The Gauntlet, as well as how it works.
More leaderboards will also be released as Diablo 4 goes on, which Blizzard will also keep fans up to date with in a future blog post. Fans have long been waiting for a leaderboard system in Diablo 4, and The Gauntlet is the first answer to their prayers.
We’ll update this article once more news is available about The Gauntlet.
