However, the demon Malthus has taken control of the Loom, creating his own private hell. Players must defeat Malthus and his constructs to claim the treasures within.

Players can customize and empower their Construct Companion using magical stones, which can be found primarily in vaults. These stones can enhance the construct’s abilities and provide new modifications.
Vaults and Traps
The Vaults in Season 3 are seasonal dungeons filled with deadly traps. Players can farm these vaults for magic stones and encounter a high concentration of hazards. The traps include spinning pillars, flames, and other deadly mechanisms that players must navigate while progressing through the vaults. Surviving the traps culminates in a gauntlet of true skill, where players must fight waves of enemies and a powerful elite. If successful, the treasure room is revealed, offering even greater rewards.
The Gauntlet: A Nonlinear Dungeon
The Gauntlet is a new, fixed seed nonlinear dungeon introduced in Season 3. Players have a fixed amount of time to achieve high scores by proving their might. Only players who unlock World Tier 4 Torment mode can compete in The Gauntlet. Each week, a new Gauntlet replaces the current one, offering the same monster positions and affixes.
