![]() ![]() This mode allowed players to skip the story and dive right into the action and tackle different quests set in the different locales available to the game’s main campaign. Heck, even the act of being too good would tip the Balance and now in order to preserve it Lilith has to be summoned and use her powers as the Queen of the Succubus to groom corrupted Nephalem or just be pushed to create a war to knock everything down a peg.Adventure Mode was an optional game mode available in Diablo 3. So far we've seen what the heroes are capable with heroics acts for the betterment of Sanctuary but what would happen if one were to be presented with the powers of Godhood and instead of sacrificing themself to preserve their own humanity they just embrace that limitless amount of power and become corrupted. I think the Nephalem have simply become too powerful and in spite of being beings from angel and demon which represents a balance in and of itself this is what's shifting the Balance of Sanctuary. It's Priest of Rathma iconography and blood magic and it would explain why he isn't wearing traditional garb since it was Mendeln who literally wrote the book on Necromancy and such. Blessed mother could be interpreted in two ways so I'm still on the fence if this is Rathma or not. Rathma may not be on the best of terms with his mom and pop as well as the High Heavens but he is bound to the Balance and because of this he would likely cast aside any differences to preserve it so it's interesting to wonder who he feels the need to be saved from (if this is Rathma). That's some phenomenal power creep and, from what I understand, D4 takes place twenty years after D3 so imagine the power the Diablo 3 heroes have been able to harness in that time as well as anyone else.Īny entity which creeps out of the wood works no matter how big or small would be squished like a bug. It's not like there are only a few Nephalem either but all are capable of being much greater than they are when groomed or circumstances arise and that power can come fast and hard which is what happened with Uldyssian who banished Angels and Demons back to their realm and effectively paved the road to ending the Sin War before destroying himself.įast forward twenty years without the Worldstone dampening the power of the Nephalem and we were able to vanquish the Prime Evil which contained the power of each Greater Evil in one after it more or less destroyed the High Heavens. ![]() The Worldstone had something like 3000 years to dampen the powers of the Nephalem which reduced them to become, well, humans and the memory of their birthright was stripped for all but a lucky few (such as Mendeln) and yet we were still able to vanquish the three Prime Evils. However we're talking Blizzard and retcons are not a new thing.I don't know about this. ![]() The more i read the lore (and i'm a fanatic for Diablo lore) the less sense it makes for Lilith to be a full-fledged baddie (while it's easy to see why we would fight her). What this means in the long term is unknown given Lilith's will, but i think everything is preparing towards another menace yet to be revealed. Lilith despises the demon lords, so she's not going to side with them. With angels basically leaning on the "nephalem are better dead" and Inarius being imprisoned, Rathma's only way to get some powerful ally is to call back Lilith from her exile in the Void. Sanctuary is completely defenseless against the Buring Hell invasion which we know for sure it's going to happen, now that all major demons are free and there's no barrier anymore to defend the realm. My guesswork: everything is breaking loose, especially since Diablo nearly destroyed the Heavens and Malthael did what he did. ![]()
