Diablo III 2.4.2.38682 Version Description

Diablo III version 2.4.2 has been officially launched! You can learn all the latest game changes here.

　　 comprehensive

• Developer Comments
  • Players find that pulling monsters to a certain point on the map and controlling them in groups is the most effective strategy, especially in team fighting. This will not only impose a burden on the server, but also a rigid and lack of interactivity game mode. These changes are intended to make group control more contextually targeted and allow individual contributors in the team to contribute more frequently to injuries.
  • The gold reward has been adjusted. The main way to consume gold coins after reaching the full level is to strengthen the secret realm. We want to maintain a general ratio. When you are in a specific layer of the Great Mystery, the ratio of reward to consumption is about 1/3. Due to the improper proportion of the gold coin reward and enhancement consumption in the previous Great Mystery, the gold coin reward in the Naifeitian Mystery, the gold collar tycoon and the treasure treasure Mystery is insignificant. Reducing the growth rate of gold coin consumption will make other game content more valuable, while maintaining the ability to strengthen about 1/3 of the secret world.
• New difficulty level, torture XI-XIII has been added to the game.
• The gold reward has been adjusted:
  • The increasing rate of Great Mystery Level 26 and above is adjusted to 3% per level
  • The torture VII-XIII has been adjusted to match the big secret reward of the same level
  • The consumption of gold coins strengthened by Great Mystery is reduced, matching the new gold coin reward ratio
  • Reduces the number of gold coins dropped by gold collar tycoons stealing treasure goblins
• Defeat will now directly increase the resistance to group control by 40%
• If the monster's group control resistance is higher than 65%, they will no longer be repelled
• The effect of continuously repelling monsters, such as black holes, can ignore this resistance if they have successfully repelled a monster. These effects increase group control resistance by 20% instead of 40% each time you repel
• The season journey for Season 7 will be changed as follows:
  • Slayer
    • The requirement of Great Mystery is reduced from 35 to 30
  • warrior
    • The requirement of Great Mystery is reduced from 50 to 40
    • The time limit of Naifei Heaven Secret was changed from 6 minutes to 7 minutes
  • Destroyer
    • The requirement of Great Mystery is reduced from 60 to 50
  • conqueror
    • The requirement of Great Mystery is reduced from 70 to 60
  • guardian
    • The requirement of Great Mystery is reduced from 80 to 70
    • The time limit for defeating Azmodan has been changed from 15 seconds to 20 seconds

　　 occupation

• Developer Comments
  • Since the demon hunter has many attack skills that consume hate value, we want to give the spike trap a special location. The goal of the redesign is to allow players to use a unique mechanism to better control the location of the spike trap and the opportunity to cause damage. Use the skill that consumes hatred value to detonate the trap, so that players can accurately grasp the opportunity to cause damage to the enemy.
  • We have also adjusted several skills that can provide the team with a buff effect. In a word, these changes should enable players in team games to contribute more damage to the team, and help optimize the diversity of team composition.

　　 goods

• Developer Comments
  • Under the influence of Heidriger's gifts, blood rock fragments and Kanai Magic Box, the demand for the attribute of magic item acquisition rate has declined compared with the game when it was just launched. It is very reasonable to reduce energy consumption instead of magic item acquisition rate. We hope that topaz can optimize the existing skill mix and bring more new possibilities.
  • As one of the most unpopular gems, the mechanism of Vital Gem is not attractive to most players. Our goal for the legendary gem is to make it exist as an auxiliary tool for skill matching. The gem that can improve your healing effect is the real vitality gem!
  • When reviewing this version, we think we should adjust the Twisted Sword. While striving to make the item powerful, we also hope to make the game style related to the item interesting. We heard the voice of players who thought that it was an efficient but boring way to stack energy cyclones at the position where the whirlwind could not move with the twisted sword. So we made adjustments to Twist Sword to change this situation.
• When you embed a topaz on your helmet, it will now reduce the energy consumption instead of the magic item acquisition rate. The numerical ratio is the same as the cooling time, the upper limit is 12.5%
