Diablo 4 Update 1.0.2d Impacts Multiple Classes, Patch Notes and more

Diablo 4

Blizzard released Diablo 4 Patch 1.0.2d, introducing balance adjustments impacting multiple classes across all platforms. With this update, Blizzard aims to fine-tune classes and enhance the overall player experience, but expect a player outcry asap.

In a post on the official Diablo 4 forums, the development team elaborated on their commitment to class balance, emphasizing its importance as an ongoing process, not a final destination. Without further ado, below you can find the changelog:

Diablo 4 Update 1.0.2d Changelog

  1. While we want players to both feel and be truly powerful, some Class builds and synergies are outside of our bounds for what is reasonable for the health of the game, so we are reducing their effectiveness. As an example, we generally want to avoid creating situations where players can survive unreasonably high amounts of damage for long periods of time because it too greatly warps our vision for how combat should be in Diablo IV.
  1. Some skills and builds are not as effective as we would like, so we’re pushing out some buffs to increase their strength.
  1. Paragon Glyphs are currently providing too much player power, so we’re reducing their overall effectiveness.

 An ideal we have carried throughout development and will uphold is that Class balance is a journey, not a destination. We want more Class builds to be fun, powerful, and competitive within reason.

Thank you all for supporting us, and we’ll see you in Sanctuary!
