Summary
Diablo 4has shared the patch notes for the next update, which will be available next week. Some of the most notable changesDiablo 4will be making are adjustments to the sale price of summoning materials, the Tempering system, and fixes for a variety of errors affecting different aspects of the game.
Previously, players saw significant buffs coming to all five classes with the release ofDiablo 4update 1.4.3, improving the overall performance of all of them. Blizzard used the update to makeDiablo 4’s endgame content more accessible and enjoyable, reducing health and damage levels in the Pit, reducing the health of Tormented bosses, and squashing bugs that hampered players' experience at the time. Now,Diablo 4is gearing up to get the next update in a few days and reveals what players can expect from it.
Diablo 4has released the patch notes for update 1.4.4, which will arrive for all players on July 10. The update will make the selling price of summoning materials more expensive, with Blackened Femur, Gurgling Head, and Trembling Hand, part of thematerials for summoning Echo of Varshan, going from 20,000 gold to 50,000. The selling price of the Stygian Stone will increase significantly, jumping from 70,000 gold to 150,000. The overall drop rate of Elixirs will be reduced, making it more difficult forDiablo 4players to obtain these items that grant temporary buffs.
Update 1.4.4 will adjustDiablo 4’s Tempering system, increasing manual drop rates to make them more consistent. Tempered affixes will have an icon associated with the Tempering category, instead of the same icon for all Tempered affixes, making it easier to distinguish. The July 10 update drop will provide an assortment of accessibility, gameplay, interface, and user experience fixes and improvements. Some cases include fixing the bug in which players were losing boss summoning materials when transferring them to a new character, and the Barbarian’s Weapon Expertise icons, which were using the same image.
WhileDiablo 4players will likely enjoy the tweaks and improvements of yet another Season 4 update, the community is also looking to the future. With the start of Season 5 expected next month, many new features will be coming to the game, such asDiablo 4adjusting the Helltidesto make endgame activity more rewarding. The nextDiablo 4season will also add a new mode, new consumables, and Unique items, promising another shake-up to create a player experience potentially even more engaging.
