Blizzard Entertainment released three images as a community reward for pushing the Diablo III Facebook past the 975,000 Likes.
The gameplay screenshot shows the male Wizard casting Wave of Force. However, the usual expanding bubble that knocks back incoming enemies is used against a single massive hulk.
A closer look at how the Wizard manages to be high in the air using this skill seems to suggest a runestone can alter the skill to knock the Wizard upwards instead, as a mechanism to escape deadly attacks.
Who says a dud game can't have a video game comeback?
Cyberpunk and No Man's Sky have to be up there. We're lucky and cursed, equally, to have games that can be updated now. For folks old enough to remember the Sega/SNES into PS1 and even 2 eras, if a game came out that was half baked (*cough*Angel of Darkness*cough*) that was it, no redemption. At the same time, having the option for updates shouldn't be an excuse for half assing games.
Diablo III still works on modern PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and remains hugely playable a decade after initial release.
Are you comparing a continuously improved 10+ years old masterpiece with the... beta of an unreleased game?
Diablo III: Season 28 brings with it the Altar of Rites, an altar full of unlockable bonuses and potions that will require the gathering of tons of resources. One of things needed is the Staff of Herding, which also unlocks the famous Cow Level known as Whimsyshire. Here's how to craft that staff, for those that either have forgotten, or have never completed it.
The runestones system was revealed a few days ago. Blizzard released 5 videos to show how each of the five types of runestones can affect a skill.

It's very likely what this new wizard screenshot shows is a variation of the Wave of Force skill never seen before.
