Diablo 4 patch notes for update 1.1.0c won't make you happy
Diablo 4 developers are scrabbling to get the game into a suitable shape after the disastrous Season 1 update that rolled out a slew of changes that have ruffled players' feathers.
With the promise of another Diablo 4 developer livestream on the horizon – specifically the campfire chat announced for this Friday – players are keen to hear what Activision Blizzard intends to do about the current state of the game. Patch 1.1.0a introduced the Season 1 content and the changes weren't well received to say the least. The community was livid at the nerfs to the five classes, with the Barbarian and Sorcerer taking the brunt of them.
The devs themselves have admitted that Diablo 4 Season 1 is ‘not the greatest play experience’ and have said that further updates and hotfixes are planned in the immediate future to address player concerns. Since the initial Season 1 patch last week, a smaller update followed with patch 1.1.0b specifically for Season of the Malignant, ensuring that Malignant Hearts "now always grant armor that directly maps with their item power", as well as removing level requirements for World Tiers 3 and 4.
The patch to set things right is expected next week – likely dropping on Friday, August 4 at 7pm BST / 2pm EDT / 11am PDT. In the meantime, Diablo 4 global community development director, Adam Fletcher, has said on Twitter that "some hotfixes & a small client patch" will be rolling out this week to fix bugs – so don't expect anything above and beyond that.
Diablo 4 patch 1.1.0c has been pushed out today for all platforms, and you can read the full patch notes below, taken from Blizzard's website. There's scheduled maintenance tomorrow, which is likely laying the foundations for the impending update next week, or hotfixes this week, so be aware that you'll be getting booted from the game once that happens.
Why Star Wars Jedi: Survivor's six week delay is a good thing
