Data from a dedicated player suggests that the drop rates for legendary gear in Borderlands 4 are extremely low, making it frustrating for players to obtain specific items even after extensive grinding, raising concerns about the game's balance and reward system.
Despite recent changes, Diablo 4 still faces persistent issues with itemization and loot drops. While the stat and roll ranges on drops have been extended, the process of sifting through every drop to find valuable gear remains time-consuming. Legendary gear is essentially identical to rare gear, making it less exciting and valuable. The looting aspect of the game needs more fundamental changes to improve the overall experience.
The "Inadvisably Bouncy Barbarian" build has become the dominant playstyle in Diablo 4, utilizing stacked cooldown reduction and legendary gear to turn the Barbarian class into a springy wrecking ball. While it may not be the most efficient way to clear rooms, it offers a fun and inspiring gameplay experience for players.
A new video has been released detailing the endgame of Diablo 4, which includes a capstone dungeon, a new Paragon system, unlocking Aspects for legendary gear, Nightmare Dungeons, Endgame Exploration, and a PvP system. The video received mixed reactions, but overall, the endgame looks promising. Boss runs were not mentioned, leaving players curious about how that process will work. Diablo 4 is set to launch in two months.
Diablo 4 beta players are encountering a difficult enemy, The Butcher, randomly in their dungeons, which can easily slaughter them if they are not well-prepared. The Butcher seems to have several attacks, making it a challenging enemy to defeat. It is impossible to out-level The Butcher, and its appearance is completely random, making it hard to encounter. However, defeating The Butcher can reward players with legendary gear in the Beta.
