Is boosting allowed if it’s not for money?
You’re not allowed to play someone else’s character since sharing accounts isn’t allowed and if Blizzard catches you, you can get punished for it.
But, taking a lower level and helping them level up quickly in game with your higher level character is called “rushing” in Diablo and it’s been around since the first Diablo game. It’s allowed. Blizzard has made it a little harder to do it in Diablo 4, but it’s still doable and it’s not considered a negative thing in the Diablo community.

No one cares really… Bus-sing / Power leveling is a common thing in APRG. If the game doesn’t restrict it, I wouldn’t even say it’s an exploit. The game is still 80% single player experience.

You could do it for money like they do over at D2JSP, Blizzard won’t do anything.
Vindicare is correct.
- You can NOT share accounts except with one minor child you are the legal guardian of, and you can’t use it at the same time. So never give your account information to anyone or let them log onto it.
- You can’t pay for in-game services using real life money or equivalent value
You CAN play as a group and have someone carry you through harder content that rewards more XP, provided you don’t do either of the things above.
A whole heck of a lot of people in WoW would disagree with you after their account suspensions and bans.
I would not assume that the lack of enforcement in Blizzard antique games like D2 or even D2R mean they don’t have updated tools for D4 and won’t enforce the rules.

Thank you everyone, much love!
-power leveling is almost always allowed across all blizzard titles
-one of my roommates in college got caught buying gold in wow and threw a literal temper tantrum for months despite being a literal combat veteran
Hahahah, that’s actually hilarious xD
But can you pay in-game currency for a carry/party?
I would assume it’s no problem as many are and have been doing it.
Gold is tradeable: Goods - items & Services - Boosts, Capstones, Carries etc.
Look at that Rob fella - 8 Billion gold. Countless Uber Lilith carries for millions a pop from what I’ve heard.
Yeah, and their own discord has a boosting service channel so I’d assume it’s safe. It’s just worrying how their AI acts and bans false positive people if one of the criteria is trading a huge sum of gold.
Well define “Huge Sum”.
Like I said about the Lilith carries: I heard it was like 40 mil or so a pop.
If you have customers for that amount to Cap/Carry/lvl I’ll gladly do that for 40 mil lol.
Also I’ve heard tell of some items selling for astronomical(to me at least) gold amounts.
Advice to avoid a ban: If you’re Carrying people - DO NOT use the Dungeon Reset method. Just keep popping NMDs as intended.
It’s a gray area right now whether there’s action being taken for the old 1 sigil infinite dungeons.

Should be outlawed for your first character at least. Already seen it in this game. Like d2 it is going to become so bad that only like 1 percent of the players actually play through to finish hell rest are rushed.
Not to mention it was a pain to get so many tells to go do someones capstone or let them tag along WHILE I WAS STILL TRYING TO LEVEL.
Isn’t all games on the bnet launcher covered by whatever they’ve got these days as their anti-cheating tool? Genuine question, I don’t mean to criticize.
“Outlawed” is a bit steep.
If someone decides on their 1st playthrough…that’s on them. It’s foolish imo.
Just do the damn campaign, get some levels and so on. Play the game ‘the first time’ for heaven’s sake. We all had to.
I had a fair number of requests for help with Campaign and leveling - while I was grinding and leveling myself.
It made me feel awkward but I had to say NO.
Some were in WT2 and that was the core of their problems. I’d tell them to lower to WT1 and just get Camp over and done with, move on. We can link up later.
Others…well won’t get into that.
Technically, yes. That is within the Blizzard rules. They have been very clear on that many times.
What they have an issue with is in-game services for REAL life money.
Just to be 100% clear, Blizzard does not own or run that Discord. That is the r/diablo4 reddit discord. Blizzard has a new Discord partner program that is similar to the Twitch streamer partner programs I guess. They partner with the people running it, but Blizz does not actually control it and can drop the partnership if they feel it is not being run within the rules.
Yes. They all fall under the same EULA and policies. However, there are small variations by game based on game mechanics or game nature/goals. Not all games have equal software data logging and methods to find cheaters either.
Could not bring myself to do it. Knew t1 was more efficient but is like turning a single player game to easy. Just was not in me to turn the difficulty down. wt2 should of got proper xp reward for difficulty but ended up finding out blizzard just was not rewarding for difficulty across the board.
