Blizzard has released the final changelog for update 1.1.1 as announced. The fans already have clear opinions about the new patch.

Blizzard has kept its word and released the final patch notes for Update 1.1.1 of Diablo 4. The patch will be released on Tuesday, August 8 and, as promised, addresses a whole host of problem areas. Will this be enough to satisfy the fans? We”ll shed some light on that in this article as well.

Wizards and barbarians can finally breathe a sigh of relief

Yes, patch 1.1.1 will indeed make many changes to wizards and barbarians. The two so far by far weakest classes of Diablo 4 should be happy. In addition to lots of buffs, the class aspects will also be reworked.

What else? These are the highlights of patch 1.1.1:

  • Guaranteed Legendary Drops: Both Treasure Goblins (level 15 and up) and Dungeon Bosses (level 35 and up), will definitely drop a rare item with Patch 1.1.1.
  • More Elixirs: The stack limit for elixirs will be increased from 20 to 99.
  • Higher enemy density: You will encounter significantly more monsters in Nightmare Dungeons and Hell Flood events.
  • Lower Respec Costs: You will need to spend up to 40 percent less gold on major changes to your build after the patch.
  • Faster Dungeon Teleport: Since patch 1.1, you had to wait an extra two nerve-wracking seconds when teleporting out of dungeons. This change is history again with 1.1.1.
  • Larger Stash: For a gold amount, you can unlock another tab in your stash.

 

Fans disagree

A look at the big (Diablo 4 subreddit) reveals that many fans are quite happy with the changes of patch 1.1.1. One user writes something like: Nice patch. Much needed buffs for sorcs and barbs, additional stash space, increased mob density and boss rewards.

Other fans are also singing the praises, but still have a few remaining worry lines, such as Reddit user coinblock:

Looks like some decent buffs for wizards, but I”m not sure it helps survivability enough.

However others are disappointed. The changes to the uniques are a joke! and What an absolute placebo patch for barbs. Absolutely none of the changes do anything useful. give a good account of the negatives.
