So hard mode has launched and we need to work out what to do - given we have got normal mode down to well within an hour an added challenge is welcome - and I believe hard mode gives better drops, and you cant run looted normal and hard on a character.
So i would say go with hard mode to see how it goes - given we got to Templar on challenge mode i dont think we will struggle until gatekeeper perhaps
Let me know in the comments if you are up for hard mode or would prefer normal given its a thursday night
