Season 18 introduced the Season of the Triune, a call-back to an ancient cult forged over three millennia ago by the Prime Evils of the Burning Hells. Masquerading as three benevolent deities dedicated to Determination, Creation, and Love, the Prime Evils sought to infiltrate the hearts of men in a bid to tilt the odds in their favor in the ongoing Eternal Conflict. Ultimately defeated by Uldyssian during the Sin War, the remnants of the Cult of the Triune still operate today as the more well-known Coven, whom continue the work of Adria and Magdha even after their deaths.
For the duration of Season 18, all players will benefit from the Power of the Triune buff, which will periodically summon circles around the battlefield that provide one of three random buffs:
- Triune of Love (Power): Players in the circle receive a 100% damage bonus while active
- Triune of Determination (Resource Reduction): Players in the circle receive a 50% discount on resources spent while active
- Triune of Creation (Cooldown Reduction): While standing in an active circle, any skills currently on cooldown come off of cooldown more quickly

You know, I have to admit I'm not really liking this season a whole heck of a lot. I'm not seeing any rhyme or reason to where the circles appear and it's pretty hard to get in the right spot before they disappear.
Maybe it's just me, though--I mean, I'm not exactly the most skilled when it comes to video games--I'd really love to see a Season of Rainbows: something to the effect of increased rainbow goblins or multiple instances of Whimsydale available per game file. Would make for a great Pride Month season for June next year...
Heck, they added those new zones in Rise of the Necromancer, but there's no story behind it, just, "Here, have some new places,". I wouldn't mind having an Act 6 to go through that linked the necromancer to the rest of the lore/story.
What do you guys think? What seasons or other Diablo 3 related things would you like to see added to the game?
