We have deployed v1.4.9, a core progression patch that fully unlocks the endgame. This update resolves the interface restriction that capped Greater Rifts at Tier 13, introduces dynamic tier scaling based on your completion time, and synchronizes Nephalem Rift difficulties with your obelisk selector.
Greater Rift Progression & Time Scaling
- Dynamic Tier Unlocks: completing a Greater Rift now accurately calculates your performance to unlock higher tiers based on your clear time:
- Cleared in under 5 minutes: +3 Tiers unlocked.
- Cleared in 5 to 10 minutes: +2 Tiers unlocked.
- Cleared in 10 to 15 minutes: +1 Tier unlocked.
- Exceeding 15 minutes: +0 Tiers (Fails the timer and revokes Urshi's gem upgrades).
- Obelisk UI Cap Removal: fixed the layout bug that locked the tier selector at baseline 13. The server now fully broadcasts your historical progress to the client, pushing the selectable ceiling up to Tier 75 (Torment 16 equivalent).
- True Tier Alignment: entering a specific tier now forces that exact numeric level internally, eliminating the "hidden +1 level" calculation mismatch.
Nephalem Rift Difficulties Alignment
- Torment Mappings: completing standard Nephalem Rifts in high Torment difficulties now automatically feeds your obelisk selector. Clearing a normal Rift on Torment 3, for example, will directly bridge and make Greater Rift Tier 16 available.
- Obelisk Synchronizer: enhanced communication packets between the player and the Nephalem Stone object to ensure the dropdown menu visualizes unlocked levels without needing a relog.
Expected gameplay impact
- Uncapped Progression: push your character to the absolute limit by climbing up to Greater Rift Tier 75 seamlessly.
- Skill-Based Scaling: speed-clearing lower rifts now rewards you with major level skips to get you to your competitive farming bracket faster.
- Intuitive Obelisk Interface: what you unlock through Torment gameplay is exactly what you get on your obelisk dropdown selector instantly.
