[h2]Season 10 Beta release![/h2]
It's been very hectic at the Panic Art Studios HQ. We are currently working on Season 10 and recently hired a new programmer to ease the work load, as well as a new designer/tester/community person "Wooxy" from our Discord. On the background of Season 10 our art team is working hard on Act 8 which
will hopefully come out with Season 11! The open beta for season 10 is now live! Read the post before opting in! (opt in guide below).

[h2]Season 10 Features[/h2]
- Runes are now tier listed from the most common to the rarest. You can combine 3 of the same runes to craft 1 of the higher tier rune.
- All of the 17 classes have received a complete talent re-vamp, each of them now also having 2 talent trees for more diversity.
- You can now choose which abilities you use by right clicking the ability slot in the HUD. You can even bind 1 ability to all 4 slots. (this gives us the ability to make use abilities on satanics/runewords etc).
- Items will now have their unique random range in sockets when dropped (some still always drop with the same amount).
- Items can now roll to multiple damage types (These are hand picked, as well as the types they can roll to).
- Special Dungeons such as Black Tower are now locked in Inferno requiring a key which the monsters drop.
- Lots of QoL improvements from our design team.
- Completely re-written DoT + Stack system for poison, plague, burning, bleed etc.
- Completely re-written the crit system, correcting many issues with the game.
- Optimized difficulty curve for a more challenging leveling experience for fresh characters, so its not just a boring pick-your-nose while playing experience.
- Completely re-written 3D audio engine, thus your party's attacks, impacts and effects outside of your FoV wont disturb you.
- Mining can now be leveled up to 1000, increasing jade drop chance with every 100 points!
- STEAM lootboxes (similar to CSGO lootbox system) containing weapon skins, shields etc. These can be sold in the Steam Marketplace, traded or used.
- Major bug fixes, improved anti-cheat, better optimization, art improvements etc.

[h2]How to opt in to beta?![/h2]
Beta requires a completely new Panic.net account, since we don't want live players to be able to interact with beta users in any way, so you will need to create an account that will only be used on beta versions.

Classes playable in the beta (in test mode currently)
- Viking
- Pyromancer
- Marksman
- Nomad
- Pirate
- Redneck
- Samurai
- Paladin
- Amazon
- Shaman

Other classes are still old ones, and everything might be messed up for them.

The BETA will most likely have bugs and crashes which can be reported to our discord's beta section, we will be updating frequently!

Also this beta is only for PC!

Go to your steam library, right click Hero Siege, choose Properties and navigate to the Beta tab, choose the beta option from the dropdown and press "Opt in".
