Tempest is the new league that starts today, with special item drops. If u die in that league, u get dropped in standard, where you can die as much as u want.

If u survive the whole league, which i think is 4 months, your character gets dropped in Hardcore league which has better item drops than standard.

If u die in hardcore, you get dropped in standard

Hardcore doesn't have better drops. It's the exact same game as standard except your character drops out of the league to standard when he dies.

PvP rarely happens even in regular hardcore. I would imagine it will never happen in tempest. I've been to the regular hardcore arena plenty of times and never once saw anyone else, even when the Leo daily was something simple like "survive 180 seconds in the arena. 1v1 queue as a hardcore character only works because it's a combined standard/hardcore queue.

There are people over level 80 in warbands. I mean do they even sleep? I'm level 17 after 24 hours, but because of things like life I don't exactly play for hours at a time nonstop.

Haven't tried tempest yet.

You'll be screwed later. Definitely follow a guide if you aren't too familiar with the skill tree and endgame.
