Hi all -

We have made changes in-game to the Sigil Powder cost when creating Bloodforged Sigils and the amount of Sigil Powder dropped when completing a successful Abattoir of Zir tier.

This is to allow players more opportunities to craft more Sigils for attempts in AoZ based off community feedback. Below you will find the new values in-game for both Sigil costs and Sigil Powder earned for each successful run.

Hello all -

We want to thank everyone for the feedback you all have been providing over the last few days since the launch of Abattoir of Zir.

As we talked about at BlizzCon, we wanted to add additional end game features in Diablo IV and have players provide feedback for what could be possible permanent additions in the future as we continue growing the player experience in game.

We have some initial changes we want to provide to players in a hotfix tomorrow for the game that will address some feedback we have been seeing with Abattoir of Zir.

Glyph Experience Rewards

We are going to adjust glyph experience rewards starting from Tier 2 upward to be significantly more as you progress through higher tiers of Abattoir of Zir. This should help with feedback we’ve been seeing from players on the amount of time it would take to level up your Tears of Blood glyphs and also benefit other Glyphs you may want to level up as well.

HOTFIX 1 - December 7, 2023 - 1.3.2

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where a few skills had unintended interactions with the progression bar in Abattoir of Zir.

The patch is now available on console and crossplay will be re-enabled.

Hi all -

We have pushed out a PC client patch for Steam and Battle.net users to address the Paragon Glyph issue and a few other items. Notes can be found below.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where the resource draining effect from Melted Heart of Selig could cause performance issues in PvP.
  • Developer’s Note: The effect will no longer count as spending resource in PvP contexts to alleviate these performance issues.
• Fixed an issue where the Tooltip for the Tears of Blood Glyph indicated that the damage bonus was additive when it was instead multiplicative.
• Fixed an issue where Paragon glyph experience increased, which resulted in active glyphs to lose levels.
• Fixed an issue where Tier 7 and ...

The team has identified an issue that players are experiencing with paragon glyphs showcasing misrepresented levels from the levels achieved prior to the 1.2.3 update. We plan on addressing this on PC with a new client update that will be shipping later today. We will update players on timing of this release once available.

For console users, we plan on releasing an update with Xbox and PlayStation as soon as it becomes available. We will have updated timing later today.

Users that were max level on paragon glyph XP, you can re-level the glyphs in the meantime if you prefer until the fix is available. For those that were below the max glyph XP, you can still progress your glyphs and after the fix will have that glyph XP added to the old amounts prior to the 1.2.3 update.

Separately, we have seen reports from players regarding the advanced tooltip on the Tears of Blood glyph mentioning it is additive as opposed to multiplicative. This is a known issue that we not...

We are looking into this. Thanks for the report!

A quick few notes prior to the 1.2.3 update coming to Diablo IV on Tuesday via a same day server side hotfix.

The Melted Heart of Selig will no longer count as the player spending resources when resource is drained from damage taken in PvP zones.

We are doing this because of an interaction that is causing some performance issues for players. Per our earlier commitments, we will make our best efforts to not nerf builds during the Season and we are only applying this as it is impacting player game performance.

For Season 3 this will be fixed for all areas outside of PvP as well.

Separately, when 1.2.3 hits, we will have a known issue with advanced tooltips on the Tears of Blood glyph where it will show bonuses as additive. The icon is incorrect and it is actually multiplicative. That will also be noted in the hotfix notes for Tuesday.
