New page

Nephalem Trials are new in-game events to be added to Diablo 3 Classic[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/more-details-on-shared-paragon-and-other-ros-news] and will be present in [[Reaper of Souls]] as well. These trials are mini-games of a sort, entered through special "death orbs" portals that are found randomly located throughout the game world.

Passing through a Death Orb takes the player to a special dungeon area where they will face a huge onslaught of enemies. The developers have said Nephalem Trials are inspired by the [[Jar of Souls]] event from Act One, where players must stand their ground against ever-increasing numbers of skeleton attackers. [http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/josh-mosqueira-christian-lichtner-interview-razerzone]

Nephalem Trials will be accessed from all acts and will presumably take place in small, custom-made dungeon areas where large groups of varied monsters will swarm the players(s). Surviving these trials will grant rewards, probably in the form of golden chests, with more chests rewarded for faster killing times or for advancing further against the incoming tide of enemies.

* These events have some features in common with [[Loot Runs]], and more details should be revealed at Blizzcon 2013.

+Nephalem Trials were planned as a feature<ref>[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/more-details-on-shared-paragon-and-other-ros-news Nephalem Trails released prior to RoS] CM, Blizzard Entertainment, 22/08/13</ref> in Reaper of Souls, but did not make it into the game. They were going to be arena-like mini-dungeons accessed through "Death Orbs" that players could encounter in any dungeon in the game. In a Nephalem Trial player(s) would have faced huge waves of incoming enemies, and earned rewards for surviving through higher and higher numbers.

+'''What happened?'''
-* These events are not the same thing as [[Nephalem Rifts]], despite the similarity of their names.
+* In retrospect, this feature seems to have morphed into the small horde or five-wave events tied to [[Cursed Chests]] and [[Cursed Shrines]]. Also, [[Patch 2.1]] added the "fight endless waves of enemies" [[Realm of Trials]] mini-dungeon as part of the [[Greater Rifts]] feature.
