Changes

'''Stay Awhile And Listen!'''

Meet up with [[Deckard Cain]] in [[New Tristram]] and get up to speed on what’s been happening in [[Sanctuary]] since the events of Diablo II. Interact with the townspeople and introduce yourself to [[Leah]] to immerse yourself in the world and [[lore]] of Diablo.

'''Choose Your Hero Wisely'''

All 5 character classes will be playable in the beta test: the dual-wielding [[Barbarian]], the fearsome [[Witch Doctor]], the elementally adept [[Wizard]], the dexterous [[Monk]], and the notoriously deadly [[Demon Hunter]]. Each character brings the pain to the [[demons]] and [[undead]] of Sanctuary in unique and spectacular ways.

'''Who’s Afraid Of The Big Bad Skeleton King?'''

Evil is alive once more in the bowels of the Tristram Cathedral as the once-vanquished [[Skeleton King]] returns to plague the tiny village with gruesome horrors. The beta will pit players against this returning Diablo villain as they battle to restore peace and tranquility to New Tristam -- and to finally put the tortured soul of King [[Leoric]] to rest.

'''Good Company In Bad Times'''

Players will be able to meet and interact with some of the [[Artisans]] and [[Followers]] of Sanctuary during the beta test. These characters will aid your hero in different ways along his or her journey, providing some valuable services and much-needed martial companionship.

'''Something Looks Different…'''

Each play-through of the beta test will feel like a new experience thanks to the [[random]]ized elements of Diablo III. Randomized maps, [[monster]] distribution, scripted events, and [[loot]] all make for highly replayable gameplay.

'''A (Treasure) Hunting We Will Go'''

Finding, collecting, enhancing, and trading items has always been a core component of the Diablo series, and like its predecessors, Diablo III was designed from the ground up to make the rewards as much fun as the challenges. During the beta test, players will experience the joy of anticipation and discovery with every enemy they lay waste to, ever-searching for that amazing upgrade that will take their character to a whole new realm of power.

'''Make It Your Own'''

Each character is brimming with possibilities. Which potent combination of skills, weapons, armor, and enhancements -- including gems, charms, and runestones -- will you assemble? With countless ways to customize each hero, players will definitely get a taste of what it means to be unique in the Diablo III beta test.
