Official Diablo 4 Thread : Hype train departing

[Spooty_Whiteboy]

Seems the patch hit EU but not US yet.

I’m disappointed that a lot of developers think a nerf is the first thing to go to.

They are server side hotfixes. There won’t be a patch; the things just change.

DH’s Smoke Screen is nerfed. Wiz’s Force Armor doesn’t work. Monk’s Quickening bug was fixed (as a result Quickening was nerfed quite a bit), and Boon of Protection is nerfed into oblivion (the devs said they are going to replace the rune completely in a later update). EDIT: From the tone of the devs on the Blizz forums, it is looking likely that Force Armor “not working” is not a bug, but a quick band-aid to fix an OP ability. I’m going to guess that they are going to completely replace this rune at the same time as Boon of Protection. There is a post that sounds like Blizz believes that Barb is the correct difficulty for Inferno, and now they are trying to bring everyone else in line with Barb.

One thing to note is that Blizzard is only nerfing the abilities that allow characters to solo Inferno (and fixing the bugs). Inferno is not meant to be solo’d, and Blizz is going to make sure that it isn’t completed alone (at least not easily). They buff when there is a mistake: they gave Monk and Barb their 30% damage reduction in Inferno, because it was accidentally removed.

This guy is reloading Act II Inferno right before Maghda over and over again. He uses that spinning running monk move to go down. If the random cellar there spawned, he goes into, blink strikes to the mobs, blinds then, and loots the resplendent chest for free loot. Drops that wards that blocks mobs and TPs out, leaves game. Rinse repeat for limitless free loot.

The Act 2 “City of Blood” chest was hotfixed a couple hours ago. Now the Town Cellar has a lower chance to appear in-game, and when it does appear there is only a small chance that it will contain a Resplendent Chest (it is more likely to either contain no chest or a normal Chest).

oh god must beat belial now before they nerf smoke screen

[Rugalitarian]

The music in this game is very forgettable when compared to the previous games. It’s extremely disappointing… That act 2 desert theme just drones on and on. What happened to shit like this?

Hope you already accomplished this. They applied the hotfixes in the last hour or so.

[imtony]

I farmed the eff out of that chest while I could for the last 20 hours. Could not find my 1000k+ dps bow…had 190%MF…Opened aroud 400-450 chests…Having a hard time trying to imagine fighting champions that many times for the loot I did get…with no MF…

[orochizoolander]

Noob qustion: How do I see the loot stats without putting it in my inventory and checking first?

i was gonna say, help me finish getting 60 first lmao…soooo close

That monk nerf SUCKS, now I have to redo my fucking rune

I bought something earlier today and it took about an hour for it to show up in my completed tab.

Oh, same here. I had that happen with something I bought earlier. Mind you, I just woke up, and my auction is still 100% empty, and I lost every single item I had up there

Game needs the old Tristram theme. That song still goes hard.

Blizzard being way to quick on the nerfs, it is bad enough they noobed down Diablo III and made the bosses WoW bosses.

[TheBladeItself]

It seems they are nerfing smoke screen from Dh and force rune from the Wiz, Monks Boon of Protection is also getting nerfed.

Seems the patch hit EU but not US yet. Look at how they fixed the force rune:

I’m disappointed that a lot of developers think a nerf is the first thing to go to. If some classes are having problems, wouldn’t it be “more fun” if they got buffs?

Yes.

But they want it to be a harder, less pleasant grind.

Welcome to the newest Korean MMO style game.

Fuck this gay Sanctuary.

I’m quits with this game.

Anyone have a link to a good monk spec?

Best picture ever.

[Rabbit2k7]

Thinking about leveling a character to 60 just to see if I can sell it. I want to at least make my 60 bucks back.

[Xero_Kaiser]

The music in this game is very forgettable when compared to the previous games.

Yeah, I can remember every track from D1 and I haven’t played it in 13+ years. Can’t remember any tracks from D3.

Or D2 for that matter.

The music’s been downhill since the first game.

It’s sort of funny that you complain that they are making things harder, and complain that things are “noobed” or too easy, in the same sentence.

Nope not me. I don’t have a barb.

I now figure the best defense is a strong offense for Inferno.
Deadly Reach with Foresight
Conviction Aura with Overawe
Breath of Heaven with Blazing Wrath
Mystic Ally with Water Ally
Serenity with Peaceful Repose
Lashing Tail Kick with Vulture Claw Kick or Scorp Sting, depending on the situation

swap out Deadly Reach for Lightning Fist or whatever, and fist of thunder

and mystic ally with Blinding Flash

fucking auction house is back up, and my gear is still missing. And my ticket is still listed as open, fucking Blizzard
