The development team at Blizzard announces that all those who log into Diablo 3 over the weekend period will be able to enjoy a bonus of 50% to Gold Find, which will allow them to be better prepared for the coming launch of the major 2.1.0 patch.

The official announcement states, “Please note that this buff will stack multiplicatively with existing bonuses including those provided from items and Paragon points. Thank you so much for your feedback, your patronage, and for being a part of our community. We hope you have fun this weekend, and we'll see you in patch 2.1.0!”

The 50% bonus period starts today at 12 AM Pacific Daylight Time and will end on August 26 and 3 AM PDT, when a maintenance period for Diablo 3 is launched.

The bonus is only offered on the PC but can be accessed by all accounts, even those who have the Reaper of Souls expansion enabled.

In patch 2.1.0 gamers will be able to enjoy a variety of new content that Blizzard is delivering for free, including a unique mode called Seasons, which allows players to try and reach certain goals in a limited period of time in order to get access to unique rewards and try to top the leaderboards.
