The game includes two options for tutorial preference, the first of which offers more guidance to the player via in-depth tutorials. It is recommended for those who are new to the Diablo series. The other options provides guidance limited to new features. It is recommended for experienced Diablo players.
The game’s difficulty setting can be altered at any time from the character selection screen or from the world tier statue in Kyovashed. The difficulty options include a world tier 1 Adventurer setting that is recommended for new players or those who are looking for a lighter challenge. Enemies are easy to defeat in this mode, though drops aren’t as good as the higher difficulty. The latter is known as the world tier 2 Veteran difficulty. As the name implies, it is recommended for Diablo veterans who are looking for a challenging experience. Enemies will be tougher here, though drops are better than those offered in the Adventurer difficulty. Playing on the Veteran difficulty also rewards you with a greater amount of XP and Gold.
