Habacalva’s Cauldron 5 Piece set bonus says you Ovearheat once you get 15 Stacks of Heat for bonuses.
This set just randomly stops giving stacks in ever single piece of content after some time, most apparent in Infernal Hordes. I’m playing Fireball as main damage dealer.
Re-equiping the set, changing the zones, going to town fixes the issue, but it happens again after few minutes of gameplay.
Please fix it! Thank you!
EDIT: SEASON 14 - BUG STILL NOT FIXED! Now it most often happens when you close rifts as seasonal mechanics or proc heat on low mana. Please Blizzard, fix this bug.

Hey, i have been able to reproduce the bug too on several occasions:
- Change of a pit zone (different zone in the current pit)
- Change of undercity zone
- New horde wave
- Random teleport to warplan location…
Missing a whole damage multiplier, damage reduction and free casts every 15 stacks really messes up most fire build. Please fix this!

Yep, broken. Was pushing Pit earlier today and noticed my overheat does not trigger. Re-equipped one charm mid-fight and it started working again.

Still broken, and apparently it’s even worse now because you can’t re-equip a set piece to fix it during an active fight anymore. Yesterday I could, but after the patch I can’t do it anymore.

I was just wondering why when raising pit level from 55 to 60 (so, barely more) seemingly reduced my damage by 90%. Saw that the set bonus stopped working, as in every single part of it as if i didn’t have a single item equipped.

Unfortunately, I have this bug too. Very annoying, and it still exists even with today’s Patch 3.0.2 Build #71886 (All Platforms) — May 13, 2026.

Why would they fix something for us Pyro sorcs. Obviously the money maker right now is warlock.

Ok, this bug is even more annoying: had it break the set during a pit run TWICE! Once even after starting the guardian fight.
It’s not funny having to stop the boss fight, un- and reequip a charm, and hope it works.

18 days later and this is still an issue. Pretty nasty considering this set bonus is essential for fire sorcerers.

Yep…. I’m having the same issue. Making my build unplayable and ruining the game for me. Why has blizzard not fixed this yet??? Slack devs.

Just wanted to add my voice to this. I finally realized that sealing tears (seasonal mechanic) was not only removing my active overheat, but prevented me from gaining new stacks of heat. I had to unequip and reequip a set piece to get heat to start stacking again. This was most noticeable in Nightmare Dungeons with the Ruptures affix, but also in Hell tides. Finally just realized I have to avoid the seasonal mechanic entirely or lose all my set bonuses

I honestly expected higher quality service from Blizzard employes.

I was really looking forward to playing Season 14. I started back in Season 10 with a Fireball build, and now I’m right back to playing Fireball again. It’s really frustrating.
The other meta builds feel overplayed and just aren’t fun for me. I’d love to see more viable endgame build diversity so I don’t feel forced into playing build that dont look appealing to me.
