Changes to Helltides in Diablo 4 Season 1 Patch 1.1


<p>Along with the <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/news/witchcraft-guide-season-7/">big Witchcraft borrowed power system</a>, Season 7 also brings new activities and a brand new type of reward to the game. So let&#8217;s dive into the Helltide-like zone events, Headrotten bosses we&#8217;re going to be chasing, and their rewards. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The New Zone Event: Headhunts</h2>



<p>The Tree of Whispers is expanding its bounties to brand new zone-wide events! These are called Headhunts and have us looking for escaped&#8230; well, heads, obviously. Headhunts feature new Whisper bounties and the new Headrotten enemy type to hunt down. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><a href="https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/gallery/yp/YP5282L26KXK1732072253231.png" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img decoding="async" src="https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/gallery/yp/YP5282L26KXK1732072253231.png" alt=""/></a></figure>



<p>These events will be active in more than one zone in Sanctuary at once and shift locations just like Helltides. The goal (aside from just doing Whispers for Whisper&#8217;s sake) is to find the Headrotten. You do this by completing Whisper bounties and destroying Exposed Roots that will spawn once they are completed. Once destroyed they have a chance to spawn an Uprooted Cocoon, which has a Headless Husk or Fugitive Head (the boss variants of Headrotten) in them. The chances of finding these boss variants are increased by Torment tier and by the new Draught of Whispers elixir. </p>



<p>A very welcome new addition to these zones are the Ravens that will be active. At these locations you can turn in your Whisper bounties and get the rewards!  </p>



<p><figure class="wp-block-image"><a href="https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/gallery/no/NO5IIL1UFYIP1732071918803.png" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img decoding="async" src="https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/gallery/no/NO5IIL1UFYIP1732071918803.png" alt=""></a></figure></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Headrotten Themselves</h2>



<p>The new enemies of the season, the Headrotten are affected by runaway heads from the Tree of Whispers. We&#8217;ll be hunting them down in the Headhunt zones, with many Whisper bounties related to them. We will also be gaining the season&#8217;s reputation currency, Restless Rot. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><a href="https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/gallery/uk/UK6OUDM19FSR1732127694642.png" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img decoding="async" src="https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/gallery/uk/UK6OUDM19FSR1732127694642.png" alt=""/></a></figure>



<p>The Headless Husk and Fugitive Head are the boss variants of the Headrotten and will be our primary goal. Fugitive Heads in particular are the most valuable, as they can drop the Stolen Head, which you can trade at the new vendor Gelena at the Tree of Whispers for Occult Gems! </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><a href="https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/gallery/mi/MIZG70JMLN8R1732072097053.png" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img decoding="async" src="https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/gallery/mi/MIZG70JMLN8R1732072097053.png" alt=""/></a></figure>



<p></p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Occult Gems</h2>



<p>Speaking of gems, they are a new socketable item that can only be used in jewelry. They come with defensives as well as unique powers, so as not to make our characters weaker in those key armor/resistance socket slots. Each one has 160 Armor and 8% Resist All. The gems are crafted by using the aforementioned Fugitive Heads, as well as Restless Rot (the seasonal currency) and actual gems at the Tree of Whispers vendor Gelena. They can also be upgraded by using the same materials. </p>



<p>They have many different powers, many linked to the new<a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/news/witchcraft-guide-season-7/"> Witchraft borrowed power systems</a>, so let&#8217;s take a look. </p>

All New Unique Items and Legendary Aspects Revealed in Diablo 4 Season 7


<p>Blizzard have announced that the most requested feature ever is coming to Diablo 4! </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Armory</h2>



<p>Players will now be able to save, name and change their builds! The Armory feature returns from Diablo 3 and allows players to have many builds saved and switch between them very easily. We will be able to access our Armory in the newly updated Tree of Whispers town, all other towns and a few other places, as you can see below.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/2024-11-21-20_53_27-Diablo-IV-_-2.1-PTR-Campfire-Chat-_-November-2024-YouTube-—-Mozilla-Firefox.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image 50466"/></figure>



<p>Items saved will be equipped from the stash as well! Once you save an item as part of an Armory build it will automatically be favorited. It will also get a special icon that marks it as being part of a build. </p>



<p>And here&#8217;s the official post:</p>

<li>The Armory gives you the option to Save, Load, and Name your favorite builds.</li>
<li>Armory Loadout slots are Character bound: 5 Loadout slots per character.</li>
<li>At a glance from your Loadout, you’ll be able to view the Equipment, Skills, selected Paragon Nodes and Glyphs that make up your saved build. Note: changing between Loadout slots with differing Paragon loadouts does not cost Gold.</li>
<li>Start by selecting an empty slot and save your build to begin.</li>
<li>Saving your loadout will capture the following: Equipped Items, Paragon Board and Glyphs, Skill Selections, and Class mechanic.</li>
<li>The Armory can be accessed across each major city in Sanctuary, and end-game hubs such as the Citadel, Tree of Whispers, and Training Grounds in Kyovashad.</li>
<li>If an item saved in your armory loadout is no longer available—whether from selling, trading, or salvaging—an icon will indicate the item is missing on the Loadout preview.</li>

Build and Paragon Loadouts Are Coming to Diablo 4 Season 7 Via the Armory!

Season 7 Campfire Chat Overview: Balance Changes & Patch 2.1 Details


<p>Blizzard have announced they will be fixing the recent elixir bug that was giving players literally millions of HP very soon. However, the very unintended interaction between the naughty elixir and player HP also affected some classes damage numbers. And it seems it broke the numbering system! </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Too Much Damage Leads to Negative Damage</h2>



<p>In a pretty hilarious display bug, it seems the damage generated by this insane HP to damage interaction was simply too much for the game to handle. While we don&#8217;t know what the exact amount  was that caused the visual, we do know the game was able to show numbers up to undecillion (aka 36 zeroes), <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/news/35-undecillion-damage-thats-36-zeroes-barbarian-crit/">as we saw in a different bug back in Season 1</a>! However, this may no longer be the case. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-reddit wp-block-embed-reddit"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="reddit-embed-bq" style="height:500px" ><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/diablo4/comments/1gvqzhu/were_in_the_negatives_now_boys/">We&#39;re in the negatives now boys</a><br> by<a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/favoritecolorpurple/">u/favoritecolorpurple</a> in<a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/diablo4/">diablo4</a></blockquote><script async src="https://embed.reddit.com/widgets.js" charset="UTF-8"></script>
</div></figure>



<p><br>We can see the hundreds of trillions up there, but the negative nine quintillion damage is the broken one. If you&#8217;re wondering why that specific number is showing up, it&#8217;s the maximum value of a 64 bit signed integer. </p>



<p>And if you want to know how exactly you get to that much damage, well, we&#8217;re not going to tell you as it&#8217;s a pretty solid exploit. However, since the bug is being fixed today, we will show you another insane thing that happens with it. The basis of all that damage above is the incredible health you can see below:</p>

<p><br>The bug is either already fixed or will be pretty soon today, and it&#8217;s not a good idea to use it even if it isn&#8217;t, as it&#8217;s pretty clearly an exploit. </p>


Insane HP Leads to Almost Infinite Damage and Breaks Damage Numbers After Elixir Buff Bug


<p>Blizzard is currently aware of a bug with Elixirs that causes players to have more health than intended. A fix for the issue will be deployed soon via a hotfix.</p>

Blizzard Investigating Elixir Health Bug


<p>It seems the Midwinter Blight event has turbocharged Cinder drop rates, as they&#8217;re basically 10 times more frequent! </p>



<p>Players have been noticing some insane numbers when it comes to Aberrant Cinders after today&#8217;s patch. We are seeing players opening every single Tortured chest with ease after only a short time spent in the Helltide. Aside from the special event enemies sometimes spawning in ambushes and the Red-Cloaked Horror occasionally replacing Hellborne, the actual drop rate of Cinders is through the roof. </p>



<p><a href="https://x.com/Rob_2628">Rob </a>went over the changes and estimated you can get around 1,000 Cinders per Blood Maiden run easily. He even managed to get over 15,000 with 8 minutes to go in a tide! </p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GcxbROJXwAAD0i9?format=jpg&amp;name=medium" alt=""/></figure>



<p>Now obviously these are extreme streamer numbers, but many more players have been reporting being able to clear the entirety of a Helltide&#8217;s chests after 30 minutes. </p>

</div></figure>



<p>Here&#8217;s a nice look at the crazy amounts of Cinders from Rob&#8217;s point of view. </p>
