chapter-ii-completed-season-8I’ll be honest: I’ve been a slacker this Season.  It’s not because Season 8 wasn’t interesting, or because I’m getting tired of Diablo III.  Part of what is keeping me away from the game is that things have been very busy in real life lately.

The other thing keeping me from playing is my health.  If I’m not working – I’m sleeping.  Despite this, I managed to complete Chapter II of the Season Journey in Season 8.

Here is what Chapter II of the Season Journey in Season 8 looked like when I unlocked it.

Each Haedrig’s Gift contains at least two of the set pieces that match the class of the character that opens Haedrig’s Gift.  I was playing a Barbarian in Season 8, so my Haedrig’s Gifts will give me pieces from the Immortal King’s Call Set.

In the days when the barbarians roamed the entire western continent – long before the coming of Rakkis – one man, Worusk, united the tribes, and for the briefest of moments, the barbarians had a king.
