Hello Blizzard and fellow adventurers,
After dedicating over 200 hours across three characters, completing all available things to do from completing the Battlepass and Season rewards, conquering Lilith, and tirelessly running through countless T100 dungeons, I’ve hit a wall.
My endgame has boiled down to farming Duriel – a task I’ve approached with as much zeal as the initial hours of my journey.
I’ve diligently collected materials and tackled everything the game has thrown at me. Yet, after more than 350 Duriel runs, my reward has been a “SINGULAR” Uber drop: The Grandfather.
Unfortunately, this item doesn’t align with any of my Sorcerer, Necromancer, or Druid, rendering it practically useless to me.
This predicament leads me to a broader concern: The loot system in Diablo IV.
Despite my love for the series and the countless hours (over 1000 in Diablo II and +750 in Diablo III) . I find myself at a crossroads with Diablo IV.
The excitement and satisfaction that fueled my early days with the game have faded, overshadowed by the frustration of unrewarding grind and a loot system that feels misaligned with player efforts and expectations.
It is with a heavy heart that I’ve decided to uninstall Diablo IV, halfway through the season (despite the significant time investment).
This decision wasn’t easy, but the current state of the game’s reward mechanism leaves me longing for the gratification of past Diablo experiences.
As I look for my next adventure, I’m considering giving Last Epoch a try…
I share this feedback not only out of anger, but from a place of love for what the Diablo series has meant to me over the years. It’s my hope that this critique can contribute to a constructive dialogue about the future of Diablo IV and its loot system.
Perhaps, with time and community feedback, we can see adjustments that reignite the flame for veterans like myself and newcomers alike.
Too all of you still on the grind, may your loot be plentiful, and your adventures legendary - in whatever world you find yourself in.
Best regards,
A dedicated but disheartened adventurer
