Blizzard has announced the changes that will be coming to War Plans in Season 15, which include:
- War Plan progress and points will now be shared across characters that exist in the same realm (Eternal/Seasonal, Non-Hardcore/Hardcore, Normal/SSF).
- Each character will have separate planners where they can allocate points
- War Plans progress from Season 14 characters will carry over to Eternal when the season changes on September 15
Streamline Progress with Shared War Plans
Ever since War Plans were introduced in Lord of Hatred, players have asked for a way to share earned War Plans reputation points across their characters. Starting in Season of Hell’s Legacy, points you earn in War Plans for one character will be shared across alts on your account that exist in the same partitions within these categories:
- Eternal/Seasonal
- Non-Hardcore/Hardcore
- Normal/Solo-Self Found
As long as two characters on your account match states in each of these three partitions, they will share War Plans progress. For example, they will share if both are Seasonal Non-Hardcore Non-SSF, but will not share with a Seasonal Non-Hardcore SSF.
Each character sharing War Plans points will have separate planners where they can allocate points, similar to how shared skill or Paragon points work. While they will share War Plans reputation levels and progress, characters each have their own plans to fit their own goals and try out new options.
Your War Plans progress from Season 14 characters will carry over to Eternal when the season changes on September 15. All accumulated War Plans reputation points you’ve earned on characters within the same partition will carry over to corresponding Eternal characters. These will add together to give you accumulated War Plans progress.
Hardcore players need to be aware that only the War Plans progress of living characters at the end of Season 14 can transfer War Plans points. Season 14 Hardcore characters who die before the Season 15 changeover cannot transfer their War Plans points to Season 15, so only existing live Hardcore characters can transfer their own War Plans progress. It will not pick up War Plans points from deceased characters.
Starting in Season 15, if you want a dead Hardcore character’s War Plans progress to transfer to Eternal at the end of the season, you must have one other living Hardcore character in that same partition to go through the seasonal change. It can even be a level 1 “storage” Hardcore character. Once that living character moves to Eternal, it will safely deposit the accumulated points into your Eternal Hardcore War Plans progress.
