Blizzard has vowed to buff Diablo 4’s Sorcerers and Barbarians following a backlash from fans over its latest patch.
In another fireside chat with key members of the development team, the team confirmed that when Patch 1.1.1 rolls out on 8th August, you’ll see improved “effectiveness and fun” for Sorcerers and Barbarians.
“Our goal is to find a way – and we’re working on it right now – for all those different ways of dealing damage to have a lot of parity,” lead class designer Adam Jackson explained.
So while the patch will tweak all classes, Sorcerers and Barbarians will get special attention, with the former seeing their late-game resilience buffed, and the latter receiving boosted Fury generation to deal out more damage. Both will also see buffs to their late-game Unique items, too (thanks, PC Gamer).
