The new Content of the Season of the Construct

In Season 3, the demonic constructs of Malphas have taken control of the “Loom” and are using it to terrorize everyone and everything. The Loom is a powerful technology that was invented a long time ago by Ayuzhan and Zoltun Kull in Caldeum. It will be your task, together with Ayuzhan, to stop the armies of constructs.

In addition to the new story, the third season of Diablo 4 also introduces a lot of new content, including new monster types and dungeons:

• Arcane Tremors: This new Encounter is set to occur all across Sanctuary. You will have to fight hordes of constructs. At the end of each encounter is a boss construct.
• Malpha Boss Fight: New boss fight.
• WASD controls: In Season 3, you can choose whether you want to continue to control the game with the mouse or use WASD.
• Skill preview: In the new Respec Mode, you can edit your skill tree to plan builds, whithout consuming skill points.
• Seneschal Construct: This is a new companion which you can scale in different directions using the new magical Governing and Tuning Stones.
• Governing and Tuning Stones: New resource, which you can equip your new companion with. Your companion can be equipped with a maximum of two Governing Stones and six Tuning Stones. A Governing Stone determines which attacks the seneschal construct is capable of. You can further customize these attacks with a Tuning Stone. You can obtain the stones by completing vaults and in the chests they contain. Furthermore, you can also create new Governing and Tuning Stones yourself by handing in the new resource “Shattered Stone” to the Jewelers. These “Shattered Stone” can be obtained from defeated constructs.

The Seneschall Construct is a new companion in Season 3.

You can find a complete list of all Governing and Tuning Stones on the Blizzard website in the official Season 3 announcement post.
