herePatch 1.1.1

Sorcerer and Barbarians buffs will be the primary focus of this Patch.
Monster density will be increased in Nightmare Dungeons and during Helltides.
There will be an additional Stash tab.
Elixir stack size will be increased to 99.
Respec costs will be decreased by 40%.
Level 50 - 100 experience will be adjusted so that leveling will become easier.
Patch 1.1.1 should be released within the next couple of weeks.

How Updates Will be Handled Going Forward

When making changes to increase build diversity, let some builds be overpowered until we have provided compelling alternatives.
These meta changes will occur at predictable times, like the start of a Season.
In situations where a bug is causing game-breaking damage or crashes, we'll still react quickly.
Patch notes will be communicated at least a week before the actual patch is available.

Diablo 4 Mission Statement

A wide variety of viable builds to discover, put together, and optimize, across all five classes.
New items and powers every season to keep the game fresh and increase build variety.
Continually evolving endgame content with high monster density for powerful builds to mow down and activities to challenge your build.
Make the game more fun for players.

Vulnerable Damage

Vulnerable Damage was nerfed because it was overused in almost every endgame build.
Tuning changes will continue to be made in order to make Vulnerable Damage more equal to other sources of damage.

Nightmare Dungeons

Nightmare Dungeons are considered too difficult.
Nightmare Dungeons will be re-balanced so that in the future Tier 100 Dungeons will be more similar to the difficulty level of Tier 70 Nightmare Dungeons now.
A Hotfix will be coming out later today to decrease the difficulty of high Tier Nightmare Dungeons.

Nerfs to Player Power

The developers have stated that there will not be a patch that nerfs classes this hard ever again.
Cooldown Reduction was changed because it was considered the most powerful stat in the game.

Season 2

There will be a new Endgame activity (i.e. Nightmare Dungeon, Whispers, World Boss, etc.) added in Season 2.
There will be more options to target-farm Uniques in Season 2.
Resistances will be reworked as a part of Season 2.

Future Updates

There will be additional updates after Patch 1.1.1 and before Season 2.
Leaderboards are planned for Season 3.
There will be opportunities to re-fight Campaign bosses in the future.
Players will have more opportunities to acquire Uber Uniques in the future.

Comment by ForrestWPeople complained endlessly and constantly, without considering exactly how much power the Malignant Hearts grant people. They're now realizing that they're INSANELY powerful, and many of the nerfed builds would've been through the roof busted with all 3 slotted in. Now, there's greater build diversity and people are having fun.

Can't wait for the next major change for everyone to bandwagon-whine about and review bomb over.

They're now realizing that they're INSANELY powerful, and many of the nerfed builds would've been one shotting the WT4 World Boss with them all active.

No crap CDR is important! Wtf answer is that? Maybe if the skills didn't have such a long cd and was mandatory for barbarian to even do anything. Maybe buff resource generation?

Not hard devs....

Vulnerable is a must have stat? YOU DEVELOP THE GAME FOR CHRISTS SAKE!
How is that news to you? Are yall really that incompetent that you didn't see this when you were literally developing it? Woooow....Comment by DoomSlapthese guys are out of their depth. they lack conviction in the words they're saying.Comment by ZnoodeyPeople complained endlessly and constantly, without considering exactly how much power the Malignant Hearts grant people.

I mean, why would they say otherwise. They're not going to revert anything.Comment by TitimocCorporate Bla bla bla.

Can't wait for the next major change for everyone to bandwagon-whine about and review bomb over. Sheep.Comment by bluebird91Sorc balance when? Resistances when? Gem tab when (especially with malignant hearts)? I think they should focus on making the game better rather than obsessing over how much damage that one necro build was doing or making people squishier or wondering why everyone was taking vuln in their builds (with some classes having multiple sources of it while every sorc was running Frost Nova)... priorities, people!Comment by Mines51People complained endlessly and constantly, without considering exactly how much power the Malignant Hearts grant people.

Devs: "Lol, we like making stuff you'll never see or use. We have no idea wtf we're doing. Something something rare. Something something prestige. Also **** you. Next question."

Edit: I stopped watching. I'll skim the blog later. This is literally the "telling us why we are right and you are wrong" meme as many expected. No doubt D4 will be great at some point, but not with these geniuses "Sticking to their guns".Comment by TinglyPianothis is a good response by the dev. This give me hope to future of gameComment by mwm175Before the season started I was roughly level 74 doing nightmare dungeons against level 90+ mobs . . . are people really having difficulty? The only problems I had were with Butcher, and rightfully so whenever you're against a rare that is 20 levels above you.Comment by mychoplease for the love of god stick to your word blizzard, we just want this game to be the best that it can be.Comment by TheRealPhunbabaWow, this is actually a good response from Blizz.
