2.4.0 PTR | Known Issues Thread – 8/19/2025
Hi all,
Welcome to the PTR known issues thread. This is a go-to resource for known issues you may experience while playing the PTR. The list below calls out issues we are aware of and intend to address by the official release of 2.4.0.
INFERNAL HORDES
- While in pre-torment difficulties, consuming a compass while inside The Pit does not open the Infernal Hordes
- Opening consecutive Fleeting Horde compasses does not reset the player’s aether amount
- Certain Boons that affect aether amounts do not stack correctly with others
- Some tooltips such as Corrupting Spires have incorrect descriptors
- Chaos Rifts and various enemies may populate error messages in the chat log
- Some council members may not cast their abilities correctly and have visual errors
- Bartuc’s Fire Wave attack can hit in quick succession
- Bartuc’s Laser Swipe attack does not hit in specific positions
CHAOS ARMOR
- Both of Druid’s shapeshifted forms may have some visual issues with certain Chaos Armors equipped
CHAOS PERKS
- Alter the Balance may cause visual issues with various skills.
- Alter the Balance does not contribute to the active Bone Storm count for Necromancers equipped with Lidless Wall
- Convocation of Spirits is causing unintended interactions with various passives that trigger on skills being cast.
HORADRIC STRONGROOMS
- Sometimes, Season 9 reward buffs are granted when finishing a Horadric Strongroom
CLASSES
- If a Barbarian has not learned the Warpath passive, then that passive will not contribute to the affix part of the Sabre of Tsasgal unique (and other similar Barbarian damage unique affixes such as those found on Hellhammer)
- Rogue’s Rain of Arrows may not deal damage or cause knockdown
- Rogue’s Shroud of False Death unique does not grant the proper amount of passive ranks.
- Orphan Maker unique’s reload bonus is not granted to Rogue’s Shadow Clone.
- Ravens’ skill damage deals incorrect damage when paired with Kilt of Blackwing unique and certain legendary aspects and boons.
- Sorcerer’s “Serpentine” legendary aspect does not consume all mana.
- Sorcerer’s Ball Lightning skill stops dealing damage with enough attack speed
- Sorcerer’s Combustion Key Passive sometimes incorrectly calculates its bonus percentage
- Spiritborn’s The Protector Ultimate skill fails to grant barrier when cast
- Putting five ranks into Spiritborn’s The Devourer Ultimate skill doesn’t apply the extra damage based off the Healing Received bonus stat
MISC
- Infernal Warp is unlisted in the Currencies section of Hero Details
These bugs are part of why the PTR exists! In order to catch issues early before Season 10’s official launch. Blizzard encourages players to continue testing and submitting feedback, so the live patch releases with fewer problems!
