Q: What are the technical limitations preventing us from adding more stash tabs? You’ll find a deeper dive into the why via the questions & answers below. Unfortunately, we will be unable to provide any additional stash tabs to console players, and we are limiting the number for PC to keep Diablo III the fast paced, loot explosion we all love.

We use PTR to vet and test changes, and there were some unexpected, negative effects on gameplay from enabling more stash tabs – especially for players on consoles. We’d like to clarify the confusion and answer some questions regarding the changes and updates dealing with stash tabs. There’s been a lot of conversation about stash tabs from PTR. We're all working our hardest to improve the communication pipeline, and this particular cause brought to light some areas that need improving. The key point here was promptness in communication, and that was something we failed to deliver. By lowering the amount of new space, we can make sure console players still get more stash, but that gameplay experience doesn’t suffer from it. Console players already have a larger amount of stash space available than PC players, and we found that 140 brought load times to a really uncomfortable level.

We could have made that more clear from the beginning and apologize for not clarifying sooner.Īs for the disparity with Console specifically, additional stash space can impact things like game loading time negatively. It was intended that this additional space would be unlocked over time. We made all five stash tabs available on the PTR largely for testing purposes we wanted to make sure adding this amount of space wouldn’t break anything. I do wish I could have been more quick about this, but I'll get to that in a moment. Going to try to clear up confusion as best I can.
