<h2>Boost your Eternal Character</h2>
<p>Return to the Eternal realm and wield your newfound power with incredible fervor, wanderer.</p>
<p>Starting on <b>November 19</b>, raise an Eternal Character to new heights by using the limited-time Welcome Back Booster.</p>
<p>You can select 1 Character on the Eternal Realm to instantly grant the following boosts:</p>
<ul>
<li>Boost to Level 50</li>
<li>3 different powerful builds to choose from for your given Class
<ul>
<li>Full set of Legendary Items</li>
<li>Completed Skill Tree to suit chosen build</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>All Altars of Lilith unlocked</li>
<li>1 million Gold, 1000 Obols, 1 Scroll of Amnesia, and Crafting Materials</li>
</ul>
<p>To boost your character, travel to the tavern in Kyovashad with the character of your choosing and interact with the Fated Reliquary inside to unlock. Note that if your Eternal character is already Level 50, you’ll still receive the Legendary items and option for the builds geared towards your class. If you also own the <b>Vessel of Hatred expansion</b>, you’ll be able to harness this powerful boost for <b>two characters</b> on the Eternal Realm.</p>

<h2>A Merry Time for Diablo IV</h2>
<p></p>
<p><a class="lightbox" href="https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/page_media/6V8W9OCCHWT01731541598639.png" style="text-align: -webkit-center;" target="_blank" data-analytics="exit-link"><img decoding="async" alt="" src="https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/page_media/6V8W9OCCHWT01731541598639.png" class="no-border no-shadow"></a></p>
<p>The past year brought many changes to Sanctuary. If you haven’t returned since Season of the Construct in January, many quality-of-life changes have made this the best time to play Diablo IV.</p>
<p>Progression is faster and more rewarding. Leveling has been updated, molded, and augmented to improve the feel of gaining power as you rise through the ranks. The Level cap has been adjusted and difficulty tiers updated, making it faster to get to the endgame when playing in the Seasonal realm or with fresh alt characters.</p>
<p>Many of the core modes you spend time slaying in have received a bevy of changes, including Helltide, The Pit, Infernal Hordes, Endgame Bosses and more. The vicious Andariel, Duriel, and Varshan were introduced as brutal endgame fights to master. To help conquer these challenging fights, Party Finder was introduced to make it easier to group up and take down these incredible challenges.</p>
<p>Itemization, Tempering, Masterworking, Legendary Glyphs, item power, affixes, Codex of Power, and Mythic Uniques were all reworked and tweaked. Their core systems were reinvigorated, making them more powerful and easier to use. Eternal characters now enjoy realm wide Paragon, increased Paragon, new Skills and broad Paragon updates.</p>
<p>Plus, the Vessel of Hatred expansion brought the endgame challenges of Dark Citadel, Kurast Undercity, Mercenaries, a whole new Zone, and an all-new class with the Spiritborn.</p>
<p>Thank you for being with us on this journey with Diablo IV, and if you’re returning to Sanctuary—welcome back to the Burning Hells!</p>

<h2>Beware the Red-Cloaked Horror’s Return</h2>
<p>The demon of crimson dismemberment rallies their Blightfiend minions for another malicious assault on Sanctuary’s denizens. Will you rise to the task and thwart their frozen grasp on the realm?</p>
<p></p>
<p><a class="lightbox" href="https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/page_media/WN3TMNU26DF81731541599080.png" style="text-align: -webkit-center;" target="_blank" data-analytics="exit-link"><img decoding="async" alt="" src="https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/page_media/WN3TMNU26DF81731541599080.png" class="no-border no-shadow"></a></p>
<p>From <b>November 19, 10 a.m. PST—December 3, 10 a.m. PST</b>, the Red-Cloaked Horror has a chance to spawn in Helltide, instead of a Hellborne, while Blightfiends spread their malice within Helltide ambushes. The Red-Cloaked Horror also has a chance to appear in the Infernal Hordes and Dungeons to ambush you from the shadows. Defeat these frigid foes for increased rewards, such as Cinders, Burning Aether, and more.</p>
<p>The return of the Red-Cloaked Horror brings good tidings as well, for slaying the hulking beast is guaranteed to earn you the coveted—and improved—Gileon’s Brew. For 30 minutes, this fabled Elixir increases your damage dealt to enemies by 20%, causes enemies to routinely drop additional Herbs and Crafting Materials, and grants 15% increased Experience. Gileon’s Brew also has a chance to drop from Tortured Gifts in Helltide throughout the limited-time event.</p>

<p>For those that have not yet delved into the jungles of Nahantu, or tasted the rapid cleaving of the Spiritborn’s signature polearm—your time is now.</p>
<p>From <b>November 19—December 2</b>, any who haven’t yet purchased Vessel of Hatred will be able to experience this acrobatic warrior firsthand when playing on Battle.net. Try this new class up to Level 25, and channel the fearsome new powers of our most mobile class yet.</p>
<p>You’ll be able to seamlessly carry over all progress earned from the Spiritborn Trial to the Vessel of Hatred expansion (if purchased), allowing you to pick up right where you left off—no extra steps needed!</p>

<p>Rise, wanderer, and stand triumphant before your hoard of spoils—Mother’s Blessing has returned! An alluring glow descends across the land, increasing the clarity and temperament of all stalwart demon slayers.</p>
<p>From <b>November 19—November 26</b>, all players will earn increased experience and Gold at a (multiplicative) increased rate. Lilith blesses all her children, as this bonus applies to both Seasonal and Eternal Realms and all World Tiers. This bonus stacks, so pair it with Elixirs and the Urn of Aggression to maximize your experience gains while killing Monsters.</p>
<p>Use this boost to carve through ranks of the Battle Pass, climb to higher Levels and World Tiers with burning swiftness, complete your Season Journey, and level multiple characters to their maximum potential.</p>
<p>The Blessed Mother’s cruelty is matched by her generosity, but not for long. Gather round, stoke the fire, and rally your most savvy of companions to decimate demons with renewed fervor. Rise to new heights and earn more Experience and Gold for your bloodlust during Mother’s Blessing!</p>
<p>Be sure to check out the in-game shop starting on <b>November 19</b>, where you’ll find free personalized gifts and discounted Fortunate Finds.<br />

Mid-Season Patch Highlights: No Spiritborn Nerfs and Major Buffs for Every Class!


<p>Blizzard is introducing a Welcome Back Boost in Diablo 4 soon, giving players a head start to dive back into the game! The boost grants <strong>Level 50</strong> and unlocks all <strong>Altars of Lilith</strong> for <strong>Eternal Realm players</strong>. The boost also comes with a starter build, so you can play right away without having to set up anything.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How the Boost Works</h2>



<p>If you own <strong>Diablo 4</strong>, you will receive <strong>1 boost</strong>. If you also own <strong>Vessel of Hatred</strong>, you&#8217;ll get <strong>2 boosts</strong>. The boosts are limited to <strong>Eternal Realm players</strong>.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Snimka-obrazovky-2024-11-12-o-20.28.56.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image 49647"/></figure>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Spiritborn Trial</h2>



<p>Blizzard will soon offer a free trial with the new Spiritborn class, which is great for players who still didn&#8217;t get a chance to play one!</p>



<p>For more information check out our <a href="https://www.icy-veins.com/d4/news/mid-season-campfire-chat-overview-balance-changes-patch-details/">mid-season Campfire Chat recap</a> and stay tuned for the blog post on Thursday detailing everything and more!</p>



<p></p>


Diablo 4’s Welcome Back Boost: Level 50 and Altars of Lilith Unlocked!


<p>Certain shrines have been the subject of many community complaints for a while now. Conduit definitely won that particular race and has been the laughing stock of Season 6. Luckily Blizzard have announced a buff to three of the most problematic shrines, including the dreaded Conduit! </p>



<p>Not only are the Shrines getting some numerical buffs to start with, they will also be scaling based on player and Paragon level! This should help Artillery and Blast Wave at least, but we&#8217;ll just have to wait and see with Conduit.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/2024-11-12-20_27_12-Diablo-IV-_-Mid-Season-Campfire-Chat-_-November-2024-YouTube-—-Mozilla-Firefox.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image 49645"/></figure>



<p></p>



<p>And in case you weren&#8217;t aware of just how awful Conduit currently is&#8230;</p>

<p><br>Here&#8217;s the section of the Campfire stream<a href="https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxHwYcEl7XXGgMzkoBfwwLDbrXdpJNcl2L?si=K3Dvr6T6s4LgEK0l"> where this is talked about</a>. The mid-season patch is coming next week so we&#8217;ll see how this all works out. </p>


Shrines Are Getting Major Buffs in Mid-Season 6 Patch


<p>It&#8217;s time for another Diablo IV Campfire Chat, this time, dedicated to the mid-season patch! We&#8217;re liveblogging the whole stream. Check back often for updates!</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Highlights</h2>



<p>Patch notes for the mid-season patch are coming later this week. Next week, we&#8217;re getting a Patch 2.1 PTR stream. Patch 2.1 notes will be available before Thanksgiving. Actual 2.1 PTR will begin after Thanksgiving.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Class Balance</h2>



<p>Adam Jackson talks about the current state of Season 6 along with a preview of some changes for each class.</p>



<ul>
<li>A whole lot of people are enjoying the Spiritborn, which is gratifying for the team.</li>



<li>62% of all players have played the Spiritborn.</li>



<li>For comparison, in Season 5, the Sorceress was the most played class at 32%.</li>



<li>Spiritborn is performing better than other classes, largely due to unintended interaction and balance issues.</li>



<li>Other classes are performing fairly well when compared to one another. They are competitive in pit tier clears which is a good sign for the devs.</li>
</ul>



<p>2 statements that they need to balance:</p>



<ul>
<li>They want players to feel strong and powerful and to feel like they can break the game.</li>



<li>They want class parity in regards to power level.</li>
</ul>



<p><strong>There are no plans to nerf Spiritborn in the midseason patch! Blizzard will be fixing unintended interactions with Spiritborn and making balance adjustments in Season 7 to bring them in line with other classes</strong>.</p>



<p><strong>If something comes up that impacts other players in regards to game performance, they will fix it as soon as possible.</strong></p>



<p><strong>They are buffing all classes in the midseason patch, but not enough to account for the power of unintended interactions with the Spiritborn</strong>.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Class Updates</h2>



<p>Here is a preview of some of the class updates coming in the mid-season patch.</p>



<p><strong>Barbarian</strong></p>

<li><strong>Any plans to bring in mid-season mechanics? </strong>Mid-season is the time for tweak and re-iterate. Larger changes and new features are targeted for season releases.</li>

Mid-Season Campfire Chat Overview: Balance Changes & Patch Details


<p>We have some interesting news today as Blizzard teased even more info coming after this week&#8217;s mid-season 6 Campfire chat! </p>



<p><span class="css-1jxf684 r-bcqeeo r-1ttztb7 r-qvutc0 r-poiln3" style="text-overflow: unset;">Global Director of Community</span> Adam Fletcher popped in on X to remind players of tomorrow&#8217;s Campfire Chat stream. Blizzard is scheduled to give us updates about the mid-season patch during the Campfire, with the patch presumably arriving later in the week. </p>



<p>However, in that same tweet Fletcher also teased a second stream the week after the Campfire! Unfortunately there was no additional information related to that. Considering the point in the season we are at now, we speculate that the second stream is most likely related to Season 7. It may not be a full reveal with all the details, but perhaps there are some systemic changes coming with the next season which Blizzard want to share. </p>



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

<p><br>We will be finding out more about the second stream tomorrow during the Campfire chat. Not that long to wait, so let&#8217;s see what&#8217;s coming! <br></p>


Diablo 4 Season 7 Announcement Coming? Second Stream Announced After Mid-Season Campfire!


<p>As we&#8217;ve recently seen from Duriel run stats, getting more than 1 Greater Affix on a Mythic Unique is incredibly rare in and of itself. Getting an honest to goodness four Greater Affixes is incredibly lucky. But getting two in the span of one day? That&#8217;s something crazy. So what would be the the absolute worst scenario within this crazy luck vortex?</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Unluckiest Lucky Player There Ever Was</h2>



<p>The appropriately named <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/RUMadBrow/">RUMadBrow</a> got a fantastic <a class="icy-gtnbrg-link" href="#"><span class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip"><img decoding="async" class="icy-gtnbrg-tooltip-img" src="https://static.icy-veins.com/wp/static/d4/latest/images/icons/2DInventory_Items_Helms_Generic_48.webp" alt="Heir of Perdition"><span class="tooltip-spell-name" data-item-type="Helm" data-item-quality="mythic">Heir of Perdition</span></span></a>, all maxed out with all four affixes of a greater variety. After having gotten all the Mythic Uniques they needed, today they decided to do a little gamble at the blacksmith&#8217;s random purple shop. And lo and behold, ANOTHER 4 Greater Affix Mythic!! Except, whoops, it&#8217;s the exact same one! </p>

<p>As Greater Affixes don&#8217;t really mean anything unless you plan to use the item this is just some potential masterworking materials saved in case <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/RUMadBrow/">RUMadBrow</a> wanted to re-roll its MW crits. Or just a regular spark, same as any basic 1 Greater Affix Mythic! </p>



<p>Either way it&#8217;s hard to feel bad for them, but that type of luck only happens once in your entire time playing D4, so it is a bit of a shame it&#8217;s the same item. </p>
