Answered Are Terror Zones the only non-ladder content now?

My friends and I just started playing this season maybe 2 weeks ago. I've done some google searching and it looks like the only Ladder-Only content now is

Terror Zones and maybe the new runewords? I don't mind starting a new character when the new season starts, but my friends will definitely be more apprehensive haha. I've been playing D2 off and on since I was a kid and this is their first time through. Thanks!

Terror zones are on non-ladder as well. But sunders dropping in them are ladder only.

Apart from that, ladder offers:
- Set upgrade recipes
- S1's new runewords
- A more active community at least in the first few weeks of a new season
- Infinitely more dclone walks
- Whatever S3 may bring

Awesome! I'll probably start a new character for the ladder if the new season has some cool new stuff. Unfortunate timing on our parts haha.
