Blizzard ha anunciado hoy el lanzamiento del parche 1.0.2d para todas las plataformas, realizando algunos ajustes de equilibrio en las clases y nos brindan una breve explicación de estos nerfs (o buffs). En general, el equipo de desarrollo afirma que están muy contentos con el desempeño de las Clases pero por supuesto, siempre hay espacio para mejorar. El objetivo detrás de estos cambios es crear una experiencia mejor equilibrada y agradable en todos los ámbitos.

«El ideal que hemos llevado a lo largo del desarrollo y que mantendremos es que el equilibrio de Clases es un viaje, no un destino. Queremos que más construcciones de clase sean divertidas, poderosas y competitivas dentro de lo razonable.»

Las actualizaciones se dividen en 3 categorías:

1. Si bien queremos que los jugadores se sientan y sean realmente poderosos, algunas builds de clase y sinergias están fuera de nuestros límites por lo que es razonable reducir su efectividad. Por ejemplo, por lo general, queremos evitar crear situaciones en las que los jugadores puedan sobrevivir a cantidades excesivamente altas de daño durante largos períodos de tiempo porque distorsiona demasiado nuestra visión de cómo debería ser el combate en Diablo IV.
2. Algunas habilidades y configuraciones no son tan efectivas como nos gustaría, por lo que estamos implementando algunas mejoras para aumentar su fuerza.
3. Actualmente, los glifos de Parangón otorgan demasiado poder al jugador, por lo que estamos reduciendo su efectividad general.
