Old Nightmare or Hell instructions can point at the wrong milestone if they ignore Season 10's Normal campaign route.

Quick Answer
Answer first
Season 10 is the Ebontharn season. Its headline update is Act 9 after Act 8 Odin, plus a progression rewrite around Normal campaign completion, Nightmare, Hell, Inferno, Ether, Incarnation, and endgame boss access.
Use this page as a current-version map, not a patch-note dump: start with the campaign route, then branch into Mevius, Act 9, Nightmare, Ether Points, Enchanted Sigils, and high-value quest rewards based on where you are stuck.
For indexing value, this page now answers what changed, which guides are current, which old guides are risky, and where to go next inside the site. It deliberately avoids copying unconfirmed exact boss HP, drop rates, or hidden quest triggers.
Current Version
What Season 10 changes
The official Steam launch announcement frames Season 10 around Ebontharn, a free Act 9, new chase zones, three new Uber fights, a seasonal Abyssal Chest, and a wide patch-note set covering items, classes, monsters, systems, and quality-of-life changes.
The most important player-facing shift is progression. Normal is the full campaign route, including Act 8 and Act 9, while later difficulty play is more about retained waypoints, farming, Ether, Incarnation, and endgame systems. That makes pre-Season 10 route advice easy to misread.
Start Here
Season 10 route map
- If you are still in early campaign, clear Acts in Normal and use Mevius as the Act 7 boss checkpoint.
- After Act 7, continue toward Act 8 Odin and then Act 9 Ebontharn instead of following old repeated-difficulty campaign advice.
- Use the Nightmare and Hell unlock pages as the difficulty chain after Act 9 instead of following old repeated-campaign advice.
- If you are looking for system progression, prioritize the Ether Points guide and treat exact point amounts as patch-sensitive.
- If you are farming boss access or crafting materials, use the Enchanted Sigil page before assuming a fixed price or drop source.
- If a guide gives exact HP, drop rates, key prices, or hidden unlock triggers without a current source, keep that claim under manual review.
Bosses And Items
New high-intent guides added in this pass
Mevius
Find Mevius location context, fight approach, Memory of Mevius notes, and what to do after the boss.
Enchanted Sigil
Check what Enchanted Sigils are used for, where players look for them, and how price data should be read.
Ether Points
Use the strengthened how-to page for Ether Tree points, access requirements, and missing-point troubleshooting.
Progression
Where old advice is most likely to fail
Boss HP and scaling
Boss data can vary by patch, difficulty, and character state. Only publish exact HP when a current data source or in-game check supports it.
Item prices
Sigil prices and crafting values can move with economy data. Use them as market context, not permanent fixed facts.
Quest rewards
Soulforged Ring and Crow's Feather are useful guide topics, but reward value and exact triggers still need current checks.

FAQ
Season 10 common questions
Is /season-10/ different from the home page?
Yes. The home page is a site entry point; this page is now a Season 10 topic hub with progression, boss, item, and system paths.
Does Season 10 require Act 9?
For the current campaign route, Act 9 is part of the post-Odin progression flow. Exact final trigger details remain patch-sensitive.
Are Mevius and Enchanted Sigil Season 10-only topics?
No. They are high-value current search topics connected to Season 10 progression and endgame planning, but they should not be described as Season 10-only content.
