If you’ve been struggling Diablo 4becomes easier. With Hateship and Season of Rising Hate in full swing, we’ll be working towards the best end-game loot and gear. Blizzard has buffed a lot of the drops, but another patch has been released to smooth out the rough edges of Eternal Grind. That’s right, rewards for rawhide, iron, and even boiling opal have been increased across the board.
Even after patch 2.0.3, Blizzard still made some huge changes to Diablo 4. We’re really drowning in item drop buffs, which is by no means a bad thing – getting more resources to do the same things as before is a simple process, and a welcome change. So if you don’t have a lot of time in your day or find yourself regularly returning to the RPG when it feels right, these latest changes are for you.
According to Blizzard, your rate of obtaining rawhide and iron has been increased. The former will help you upgrade your armor at the blacksmith, while the latter will do the same for weapons and jewelry. Another patch for Diablo 4 has increased the drop rates of other crafting materials used in potions, so it’s clear that Blizzard is trying to reduce the time you spend farming. If you’re a more casual player, a higher acquisition rate is definitely a good thing. Less time spent upgrading gear means more time actually playing the game.
That’s not all of the fixes – you can now get more material benefits from the Boiled Opal rewards. You can get boiling opals by defeating realmwalkers and jumping into dungeons through their portals, then use new items to increase the frequency of certain drops. Another patch already added Diablo 4 boiling opal rewards, but now Blizzard has done it again.
Blizzard has been increasing drop rates across the board since Ship of Hate dropped. In fact, the patch for Forgotten Souls was only recently released, so you’re now guaranteed to find these items in dungeon bosses, lair bosses in the Torment Level, and even Whisperer treasure chests.
