WhenDiablo 4’s next season begins, everyone will have a robot spider crawling along beside them. In all the footage Blizzard has released leading up to tomorrow’sSeason of the Constructlaunch, the little spider always looks like the Dwarven spiders from Skyrim. Despite what players had been hoping, it will always look like that, Blizzard told PC Gamer.
For the next three months, the Seneschal companion will look like a robot spider and there’s unfortunately nothing you can do about that. It won’t pick up gold or items like Diablo 3’s pet either. The only customization you’ll have is for its skills in combat, which is the focus of the season. You can give it skills via Governing Stones and tweak those skills with Tuning Stones,one of whichwill give you four ranks to all your skills like one of the most popular Uber Unique helmets in the game.
The Seneschal will be Diablo 4’s first real companion outside of the NPCs who join you for specific quests. Blizzard hasn’t said if it plans on adding companions or pets to the game permanently, but it’s rumored to be a feature coming in the first expansion later this year. Season 3’s companion could very well be a trial run for that.
It’s not all sad news though: You can actually pet the Seneschal like you can the dogs in Diablo 4. If you use the hello emote near it, your character willgive it a few pats.
