Season 8: Belial’s Return will make Diablo 4’s endgame bosses harder and more rewarding to beat.

Here’s what’s new.

The detailedpatch notescan be found below.

This is an increase in damage for both options.

Giving it much greater boss fighting effectiveness to get to help the moment of power feel more consistent.

Your Minions benefit from all of your damage bonuses, so it was redundant to include that specification here.

These values are based on an attack speed of 1.0.

Additional bonus stacks are no longer multiplicative with each other.

When used with thrown Trap Skills, it will be placed where that Skill is aimed.

Unique items find themselves pulled in two directions.

On one side, they are must-find, build-enabling, pieces of gear with one-of-a-kind powers.

On the other, they are super rare items to strive for that create moments of celebration once acquired.

In previous seasons, Lair Bosses leaned heavily towards supporting the former.

Lair Boss Updates

All Lair Bosses have been updated to make their fights more challenging and engaging.

This includes increased health and damage across the board, and changes to the fight itself.

This change is aimed at making it clearer to the player what is happening.

Developers Note:We have heard feedback on the Conduit shrines.

We are disabling them until further notice while reworking them.
