Recently, many players pointed out thatinventory management inDiablo 4is rocky, and Blizzard should add a separate tab for gems and Sigils.
Diablo 4has released a major updatein preparation for its debut season of content, titled the Season of Malignant, and it brought a number of bug fixes, balance changes, and unique items that players are not happy with their existence.

Over on the game’s subreddit, a user named Ziid10 showed that the Season 1 update nerfed items they already have. The player put their crossbow in comparison to reveal their existing item has had its bonus critical strike damage, vulnerable damage, and dexterity nerfed. In the comments, many players voiced their frustration over Blizzard, with some claiming that it’s disrespectful to the time and effort they put intoDiablo 4.
It’s disappointing for manyDiablo 4players to see that this change was directly applied to their existing items they spent a lot of time collecting. However, some players pointed out that it will be harder to clear dungeons and dominate PvP zones, which they think is excellent for the competition. Whether Blizzard will revert these changes before they spark further debate, that is yet to be seen.
In addition to implementing balance changes, thelatest update forDiablo 4also buffed the Butcherand other monsters to offer players a more challenging experience. The slow effect on the Butcher’s Cleaver has been increased, which makes it harder to escape its wrath. Players will have to wait a little longer to see how these changes will affect their progression.
Diablo 4’s Season of Malignantstarts on June 20 across all platforms, and players are excited to finish a new quest line that will expand the game’s story. The upcoming season will introduce a Battle Pass, new enemy types, and gameplay mechanics that allow players to use Malignant Hearts as gems. The main features of the season also include Malignant Tunnels, a new type of dungeon players can complete to receive valuable rewards.
