According to the update file of version 1.1.0a, 6 new unique items are first introduced, one for each class, and the universal “Yahvilion, Spear of Lykander” is a super unique item dropped by world tier 4 Item: After killing an elite enemy, gain a random shrine effect for 10-20 seconds.

In terms of job balance update, Blizzard has made corrections to the configurations of the current mainstream 5 major classes, including the barbarian’s current mainstream Hammer of the Ancestors. Count” bleeding damage. Blizzard emphasized in the update file that “we think this adjustment will greatly reduce the strength of the Barbarian Ancestral Hammer genre, but we don’t want the strength of the genre to be built on mistakes.” In addition, the extremely large amount of damage dealt by the Stormclaw Essence of the previous druid “Stormwolf” has also been corrected. The following are the gameplay update details for all classes: Barbarian Fixed an issue where the Barbarian class quest “Battle Master” did not display the number of enemies that need to be defeated. Fixed Iron Vortex being able to cast more than 3 times when rapidly casting Battlecry. Fixed an issue where players could deal extremely high amounts of damage by stacking Raging Rip, Skull Crusher, and Bleeding Essence at the same time. Fixed an issue where the rim of Hammer of the Ancestors shock wave given by Essence of Ancient Echoes would deal more damage than intended. Druid Fixed an issue where the Earth skill and Shatter skill would consume two Overpower effects at the same time. Fixed the Bloody Howl buff from Night Howl Essence being applied twice to Dire Wolf Companion, but not applying to Raven at all. Fixed Provoke passive effect stacks not updating correctly after raising more points. Fixed an issue where Insatiable Fury’s auto-transform was causing Bear Might’s key passive skill to not trigger consistently. Fixed an issue where the Enhanced Smash bonus effect would not remove itself while in town. Fixed an issue where the Hunting Tornado created by the Essence of the Windchaser would not deal damage. Fixed the problem that Raven’s passive damage could not be increased after skill upgrade. Fixed Rabid Bite not dealing damage when very close to enemies. Fixed Stormclaw Essence causing Shred to deal extremely high amounts of damage. Necromancer Fixed an issue where Necromancers could not obtain daggers from the talismonger. Fixed Necromancer minion health bonuses not working in cities. Fixed an issue where casting Bone Spear through the cold wind created by elite enemies would increase the number of echoes generated by that cast. Fixed Empowered Bone Spear making movement unpredictable. Fixed an issue where canceling Blood Mist would immediately cast it again when it was off cooldown. Rogue Fixed an issue where Shadow Walk would not trigger the Strange Essence of Rebellion if the target was dead. Fixed Advanced Penetrating Shot not knocking down other players in PvP mode. Fixed an issue where Resharpening Blade would not fly back when killing a Swollen Wraith. Fixed an issue where the dash ability would not travel the full distance when using a controller to lock on to an enemy. Fixed a bug-resistance bonus being provided by the Unholy Bounty pinnacle node. Fixed a VFX where Burst would spawn an extra arrow, and the FX was behaving incorrectly. Fixed an issue where Awakened Glyphstones would not spawn when Rogue players were using Improved Arrow Barrage. Enchanter Fixed an issue where the Firebolt enchantment was not counting towards the Flameburst key passive effect. Fixed an issue where some of the passive stacks generated by Attunement of Elements would reset in an unknown way. Fixed casting Extreme Freeze preventing the Ice Shard enchantment from triggering. Fixed Essence of Control applying its damage bonus effect 3 times to a bruised boss. Fixed an issue where the Gravity Essence displayed weaker effects on two-handed weapons and amulets. Fixed the Chain Lightning enchantment not having a visual tracking bonus, and would lose the bonus without warning. Fixed Incinerating Flames costing 30 mana immediately upon casting, in addition to the mana cost of channeling over time. Conflagration now correctly only costs mana while channeling. At the same time, Blizzard also made adjustments to the glyph attributes and bonuses of all occupations according to the current environment. By adjusting the crit damage peak glyph, it strengthens all damage (instead of only strengthening core skill damage), and develops more genres possibility. At the same time, the official emphasized that “we will also reduce the source of attributes of certain occupations. These attributes will cause a lot of damage, healing effects, or unblocked status. All in all, we also hope that these genre-specific changes can increase the strength rather than reduce the effect. But these Changes are necessary for the overall health of the game.” The changes to attributes are not only aimed at peak glyphs, but also at the attributes of all current equipment, because Blizzard believes that some attributes are too strong, such as core damage bonus, cooling time reduction, critical strike damage, and vulnerable damage , The damage bonus of enemies in the controlled field, etc. Finally, Blizzard seems to think that the more high-level players wait to kill monsters, the health of the game will be affected, so they roughly reduced all defense attributes by 25~30%, and then added all damage. Physical Damage: Increased by ~25%. Fire Damage: Increased by ~25%. Cold Damage: Increased by ~25%. Electricity Damage: Increased by ~25%. Toxin Damage: Increased by ~25%.

Damage Reduction for Enemies Affected by Shadow Damage Over Time: Reduced by ~25%. Fortitude Damage Reduction: Reduced by ~25%. In the front, the damage of strong attributes was weakened first, and then the damage of weapons, elements, and skills was enhanced, which shows the complexity of the attributes of “Diablo 4” this time. Here’s a developer note from Blizzard: We’ve found that strong players have a way of killing monsters that are far above their level. We support this phenomenon, but the current situation is far beyond what we think will make the game healthy in the long run. In order to achieve this goal, we will transfer the power of many defensive attributes to attack attributes. We know this change will make our late-game content more deadly, especially for those players who are chasing the final boss fight, which is not for the faint of heart. Conquering the ultimate boss will require all your strength and preparation. We will continue to evaluate the feedback from the community, and then adjust our combat mechanism. The first season of “Diablo IV” (Diablo IV) “Evil Season” is scheduled to arrive on July 21.
