Scheduled to launch on Halloween, October 31st, this update is sure to add even more depth and excitement to your Diablo 4 experience. So grab your weapons and prepare for the next chapter in this epic game!

Gameplay Updates

  • Paragon Board

One of the most exciting additions in Patch 1.2.1 is the new Reset All button for the Paragon Board. This highly requested feature will allow players to easily rework all or most of their Paragon Points with a single click. Whether you're looking to optimize your character build or experiment with different playstyles, this button will make respeccing a breeze. Additionally, the update includes increased Gold income from Whispers in the Season of Blood, giving you even more resources to power up your hero.

  • Training Dummy in Kyovashad

Another intriguing addition to the game is the Training Dummy. Located in an underground room in Kyovashad, this un-killable foe will put your skills to the test. Whether you prefer solo encounters or facing off against a group of Training Dummies, you can choose the difficulty level and challenge yourself accordingly. This feature is perfect for refining your combat techniques and finding the most effective strategies to overcome your adversaries.

Season of Blood Improvements

  • Potent Blood Drops

In response to player feedback, Blizzard has increased the drop rate of Potent Blood from Blood Wells during the Season of Blood. Previously, players would receive one pile of 45-60 Potent Blood, but now, you can expect to find eight smaller piles of 5-9 each, resulting in a higher overall average amount dropped. These additional resources will come in handy as you delve deeper into the dark and treacherous realms of Diablo 4.

  • Vampiric Power Enhancements

Blizzard has made several enhancements to the Vampiric Powers in the Season of Blood. To provide more clarity, additional information has been added to tooltips, allowing players to better understand the effects and benefits of each Vampiric Power. Furthermore, the upgrade screen now displays the number of Pacts required and the activation cost of each power, making it easier for players to plan their progression and make informed decisions about their character's development.

Bug Fixes and Improvements

  • Dungeons and Events

  • Fixed an issue in the Halls of the Damned dungeons where progress could be reset by leaving the area.
  • Addressed a bug in the Whispering Pines dungeon where doors would appear in unexpected locations.
  • Resolved an issue where the Waves of Darkness event didn't always reward grim favors.

  • Gameplay

  • Fixed a bug where Shrine Buffs would not apply when activated while mounted.
  • Addressed an issue with the enemy character Varshan, who would stop attacking if his path to the center of the arena was obstructed.
  • Fixed a bug where Temerity's Overheal barrier would only trigger at full health, instead of including excess healing.

  • Quests

  • Resolved an issue during The Blind Eye quest where destructible terrain could cause progression to be blocked.
  • Fixed a bug in the Final Straw quest where scorpions would not spawn if the quest was abandoned and restarted.
  • Addressed an issue in Jirandai where certain NPCs would disappear if Helltide was active, blocking the completion of associated quests.

And many more bug fixes and improvements that will ensure a smoother and more enjoyable gameplay experience for all Diablo 4 players.
