In Season 14, I decided to play a Hardcore Barbarian as part of the Solo Self Found League. I did a Season Rebirth on Zena, a Barbarian that I’ve had for a very long time.
Unfortunately, she didn’t make it all the way through Chapter IV. So, this blog post shows what happened at what turned out to be the end of my Season 14.
This is Malfeasance. I got this creepy pet from a Menagerist Goblin shortly after Season 11 ended. The Menagerist Goblins are the only ones that drop pets.
The flavor text for this pet says: Could it be Malthael’s country cousin?
This is Charlotte. I got her from a Menagerist Goblin during Season 11. The Menagerist Goblins are the only kind of goblin that drop pets. I think they always drop a pet – but the kind of pet appears to be random.
The flavor text for this pet says: She just wants a big, multi-armed hug.
This is Lady Morthanlu. I got her from a Menagerist Goblin during Season 11. The Menagerist Goblins are the only type of goblin that drop pets. Kill the Menagerist Goblin – and it will drop a random pet for you.
The flavor text for this pet says: “Lady Morthanlu is the picture of sophistication and charm. Only the most refined adventurer will bring her along!” – Barker Chan.
This is Buddy. I got him from a Menagerist Goblin, but cannot remember exactly when. Diablo Wiki says that Buddy was added in patch 2.4.1. The Diablo III website says that Patch 2.4.1 went live on April 26, 2016.
The flavor text for this pet says: His favorite game is “Fetch the Skull,” but try to make sure no one is using the skull first.
This is The Stomach. I got him in Season 13 from a Menagerist Goblin. The flavor text on this pet says: He’s got a helmet and an appetite. What else could you want?
I am playing a Hardcore Barbarian for Season 14. My goal is to see how far I can get through the Season Journey without dying. I am playing as part of the Solo Self Found League on my Hardcore character.
I’m also playing a Softcore Demon Hunter, and playing in groups with that one. With help, my Softcore Demon Hunter is currently at the point where she is working her way through Slayer. It was time for my Hardcore Barbarian to catch up.
This is Blaine’s Bear. I got this ominous yet adorable pet by completing Chapters I – IV of the Season Journey during Season 13. I’m fairly certain that this “murder bear pet” was only available during Season 13.
I am playing a hardcore Barbarian for Season 14 of Diablo III. Last Season, I played as part of the Solo Self Found League (SSF) on softcore. This season, I’m doing it on hardcore.
I started the Season Journey on my softcore Demon Hunter. This meant I did not have an easy way of checking what objectives I had completed on my hardcore Barbarian. It also means that my Barbarian cannot receive Haedrig’s Gifts, because my Demon Hunter already collected them.
Season 14 of Diablo III is the very first themed season. All Treasure Goblin spawns would be doubled for the duration of Season 14. In other words, when players encounter one Treasure Goblin, it will be accompanied by an exact duplicate of itself.
I decided to use Season Rebirth so I could play my hardcore Barbarian as part of the Solo Self Found League (SSF) for Season 14. In addition, I also used a Season Rebirth on my softcore Demon Hunter, specifically so I could play with friends.
