· The Diablo 4 Lord of Hatred expansion will be released on April 28th at 8 AM Korean Standard Time. · However, the season starts at 8:30 AM, so even if you open the game at 8 AM, you won't be able to create a seasonal character. Please note that character creation will be possible from 8:30 AM. · This seems to be an intentional measure to distribute players between the Eternal and Seasonal servers to prevent server overload.

· During the 30 minutes before the season starts, it's recommended to create a character on the Eternal Server to analyze and practice skill tree and passive skill changes in advance. · If you choose the Sorcerer, understanding the skill tree changes and practicing the resulting skills will give you an advantage when the season begins. · Referencing overseas strategy sites (like Rob's) to familiarize yourself with leveling guides and end-game builds is also a good approach. · Additionally, trying out fishing in the Scosglen region is another way to experience new content early.

· Pre-downloading the game is essential for a smooth start. Note that pre-download is not available for the Steam version. · Considering the server delays and maintenance that occurred during the launch of the Vessel of Hatred, preparing PlayStation as an alternative connection method is advisable. · Diablo 4 allows cross-progression between PC and PlayStation, but this is not the case for Path of Exile 2, so keep this in mind.

· Diablo 4 offers four modes: Original, Vessel of Hatred, Lord of Hatred, and End Game. · You can skip the campaign and jump straight into the season, but since the story is engaging, it's recommended to clear up to Vessel of Hatred beforehand. · New players should complete the Vessel of Hatred campaign before launch and then enjoy the expansion's story with their seasonal character. · After clearing the seasonal campaign, you can proceed directly to the end game. If you wish to experience the story before entering the end game, watching a stream is a good option.

· Before the game's release, there's an event where you can win Battle Coins by posting tips on the community cafe. · After logging into the game, it's recommended to check your skill tree, Paragon board, fishing, and new systems. · Turning off Ray Tracing in the graphics settings can help reduce lag, and it's common practice to disable the 'Read Screen Content' option. · It's also a good idea to browse shop items like the Overwatch collaboration skins, and be sure to claim any free gifts.

· The expansion includes two new classes, the new Scosglen region, major updates, and end-game revamps. · If you experience lag, it's recommended to disable the High-Resolution Asset option. · The expansion's story is approximately 10 hours long, and boss difficulty can be high, so it's advisable to start on normal difficulty initially. · For 4-player co-op, you might consider higher difficulties like Hard or above.

· The main setting for this expansion is the Scosglen Isles, accessible by boat from Hawezar. · Sorcerer players must complete their class quest after reaching level 15 to unlock powerful summons, core systems, and the ability to equip special shards. · Shadow or Summoner skills are expected to be strong in the early game.

· Start the campaign on normal difficulty, and increase affinity with pets and mercenaries to unlock skills and legendary rewards. · Follow the main quests to the Scosglen region, and Sorcerers must complete their class quest at level 15. · Upon completing the campaign, you'll be around level 45. Afterward, focus on playing the Nightmare difficulty of Helltides and completing Whispers of the Dead quests. · In the level 50-60 range, clear the Capstone Dungeons and level up in the Pit to reach level 70. · After reaching level 70, change the difficulty to Torment, check your gear, and then play end-game content (like Helltides).
