Diablo III update adds Legendary armour sets

The incoming patch 2.2 for Diablo III will bring with it a variety of updates, including the addition of several new and redesigned Legendary armour sets.

Three new six piece armour sets (Unhallowed Essence, Wrath of the Wastes, and Delsere's Magnum Opus) will be taking a bow in a Public Test Area near you soon, while existing sets are also getting an overhaul.

The post detailing patch 2.2 on Battle.net also discusses fifteen new Legendary powers, updates to the Adventure Mode and some new randomised Rift layouts (with new "tilesets based on the Fields of Misery and Festering Woods from Act I, Stinging Winds from Act II, and Fields of Slaughter from Act III"), and new bounties that will appear across Acts II, IV and V - including a new bounty type called Exploration ("As the name implies, these new bounties involve exploring an area and finding people who need to be rescued (if they're good guys) or slain (if they're not). You'll see 14 bounties of this type across all Acts in the game.").

On top of all that we can expect to see some character class fine-tuning, three new treasure goblin types - because everyone enjoys chasing after goblins, a new cosmetic window, and on the more technical side, Blizzard are switching to a new file system. More details on all of that can be found over on Battle.net.
