What’s new in Diablo 4 season 4?

Like the name suggests, Diablo 4 Season 4’s Loot Reborn is mostly about items:

• Affixes are getting simplified descriptions with more straightforward effects.
• Tempering and Masterwork let a blacksmith customize, swap, and improve your affixes using the new Tempering Manual and Crafting Manual items.
• You’ll be rewarded with several of those Tempering Manuals when you fight along with the Iron Wolves mercenary company in Kehjistan.
• Masterworking will require a specific material that can only be found in the new, timed, World Tier 4, 200-level challenge, The Pit of Artificers.
• The Helltide will now include a threat mechanic inspired by Season of Blood that culminates in the player becoming Hell-marked and drawing the attention of a Hellborn. Collect their Baleful Hearts to start the Accursed Ritual and face the Blood Maiden for a valuable reward.
