Dude says he hasn't played D4 in about a year, which means this was his first time playing paladin and the QoL improvements added in season 11.

The dude was miserable AF. He would complain about D4 and would then blow PoE for a while. It's obvious he doesn't like D4.

The weird thing is that after complaining over the course of an hour, he receives an amazing D4 gift box, that even has his name on one of the items.

Was honestly irritating seeing someone who doesn't like the game, who is obviously miserable while playing the game, receive this super cool gift box for that game.

Maybe i don't get it, since this was the only D4 Raxx stream i've watched. But why is he such a big name in the D4 scene? I know Blizzard did an interview with him recently, so he clearly carries some weight in the gaming scene.

Good lord this outta be fun as hell. I did enjoy pally but this looks like it will be dope as hell.

I thought it was a neat detail they animated the blood or whatever at the top of a bloody item while in inventory.

There are numerous cosmetic issues in the wardrobe that have existed unchanged for at least a year and most have likely been around much longer. These older cosmetic issues are what I'm going to start with in this series of posts. As of Patch 2.6.1 the pink PH squares are back in the shield section of the Paladin wardrobe. Blizzard is aware of their return and is working on fix.

The easiest way to help is to upvote this post for visibility. If you know of a cosmetic or item I'm missing in my list please share it in the comments below. My lists are based off of the items I have found and what others share with me, so there are probably things missing. Feel free to share your own Darkblade images in the comments if you don't mind me using them for future posts. I received a response to the list I sent them on 3/12 in the form of this comment. I will share any additional updates I receive.

For those who are unaware the Darkblade is a unique rare sword that has roughly 33% chance to drop in any non-Torment difficulty from Sir Lynna, a rare monster in the Frigid Expanse in the Fractured Peaks. It has been in the game since Beta. Based on the limited information I can remember or find there was an issue with the flames, so they disabled the flames around launch. The flames have since been reenabled, but the ability to add the Darkblade cosmetic to the wardrobe was never added to the game.

The Darkblade is not alone. There are 23 other weapon cosmetics used by 33 weapons I have found so far that are not included in the wardrobe. There 7 armor and 34 weapon cosmetics listed in the locked section of the wardrobe that are currently unobtainable. There are 26 stable cosmetics (6 mounts, 6 mount armors, and 14 trophies) listed in the locked section of the Stable that are currently unobtainable. Only 8 of these cosmetics are seasonal cosmetics from past seasons that are missing the seasonal tag. The 5 Glorious armor set cosmetics are the only non-seasonal cosmetics I'm aware of that were obtainable at some point, but have had the items that use them removed from the game. The rest, both the missing and unobtainable ones, have never been obtainable in the wardrobe or stable. There are also 54 armor cosmetics that were removed from at least one class's wardrobe by the 2.5.1 patch that are still missing. This post covers those issues along with a few new issues introduced in Season 12.

These cosmetics are the truly unobtainable cosmetics according to all the research I have done that are in the locked section of everyone's wardrobe. If you have one of these cosmetics unlocked please share in the comments, it would be greatly appreciated by the cosmetic hunting community. Please share as many details as you can about how you acquired it along with a screen shot, since I am not aware of confirmed cases of these cosmetics dropping anywhere.

First Cosmetic Issue: Battle Axe

The Diadem of the Ancient helm cosmetic is not displayed correctly on the Druid. On all the other classes it looks the basically same. However on the Druid the entire cosmetic including the red gem is appears to be dyed black by default. I was alerted to this issue by u/9pairsofsocks in the comments of my last post. According to them this issues has be going on for the last 4 or 5 seasons.

Playing as the butcher is pretty forgettable, the meat vendor drop rates are trash and bloodied NMD was kinda whatever for me.

HOWEVER!

I think the bloodstained/soaked keys was a good way to add an extra layer of challenge, for people who would normally burn out and leave a season once they smash T4.

I'm genuinely going to miss the outrageous exp farm that we get from bloodied infernal hordes.

Although i understand that's only because this was a mini season, so reaching P300 super fast in a full length season probably isn't the best idea.

Adding Butcher as a permanent torment boss is also a win. So for a mini season it was pretty decent.

EDIT: Completely forgot to mention the april fools Chicken boss event. Adding a giant chicken world boss, with chicken themed loot, was peak.

i enjoyed it in D3 and have been waiting for it to come to D4, now i don't know any more lol. sure, it feels good to get a streak but i think the negative feeling of losing a streak is more impactful than the positive aspect of it, at least for me.

it makes the gameplay become so hectic and just a chase to constantly extend the streak rather than playing it in your own pace (and yes i know it's not mandatory).

what do you think?

Dear Diablo 4 Redditors,

is there Season 12 hidden feat of strength for completing all season journey objectives/

Played diablo since the start, never any issues, but last 3 weeks it turns off the computer when I play, just goes to black screen and windows turn off text. Bought a new computer and exact same thing happens. Tried a bunch of tips online but nothing helps. Is it a bug in diablo 4 right now?

The impression I get from the lore entries (especially "recent ones" in the latest yeras), is that (havily summarized) both Angels' and Demons' influence is bad and that Trag'Oul is the only being that really cares for sanctuary well being and is able to keep the balance in it.

Given that most of it seems to come from Rathma, should we consider it an unreliable/biased narrator? Do we have anything that points out at any other force (outside of Trag'Oul) be positive for Sanctuary?

I know the new addition is basically Echoing Nighmares from diablo 3 but they had a specific purpose in that game and there wasn't any other wave activity at the time. In diablo 4 we have Infernal Hordes already so I'm confused as to how echoing hatred will be appreciably different. Also in general I don't get the obsession with wave activities in Diablo. I know everything boils down to killing demons but I'd much rather move through a map/location then stand around spinning in the same spot.

I feel like Nightmare Dungeons are still the most engaging activity in the game for this purpose. Do people really enjoy Infernal Hordes?

I've been playing on PS5 since launch, took a break for a good while after VoH. And I'm just realizing I never once saw a chat message pop up. but I discovered recently you -can- type in text chat on console. But it doesn't seem to display anyone else's messages, if they're even talking? Like everyone is just silent or emoting. I'll even see characters with the three dots above their head, but no chat message will pop up.

Is there something I need to enable to see people text chatting? I tried looking online and found inconsistent answers, so was hoping for a more up-to-date response on this issue if anyone has any info to share. I do have crossplay enabled and chat seems to be set as open as I can make it.

What’s up guys,

I just started playing D4 and was doing a Blood Maiden event the other day and noticed something I hadn’t seen before. A player (wasn’t able to figure out who) was spamming an ability that kept pulling in all surrounding enemies. What class, abilities, aspects were used? Does anyone know? It looked so damn cool.

Edit: I think people already figured it out for me. Godslayer Crown!

I'm a casual player who just plays the odd season, skipped vessel of hatred but recently pre-ordered the new expansion. Just replayed the campaign up to vessel of hatred this weekend, and I totally forgot how good it was. The voice acting, the story, the animations, the music, so much is so good.

I feel like with games like this where 99% of us play it for the grind fest it's easy to forget how good the lore is, and taking the time to play through it all again has got me really excited to continue through the vessel of hatred campaign before the expansion comes out then play tf out of that. I feel much more connected to the game after refreshing the narrative aspect of it for myself.

Sorry if a lame post, but I feel like there's so much negativity in gaming nowadays I wanted to share a positive experience. Been a fan since d1/d2, loved each game for different reasons. Thank you for making something cool with our money Blizzard.

I pre-ordered the ultimate edition way back in December.

What about you guys? Which Lord of Hatred edition will you be purchasing?

I like the mounts and skins that come with the ultimate edition.

Starting from 3:08 you can see a figure with shadow that holding a sword. At some point later there's a glimpse of a white cape and a bald/shaved head.

Considering Blizzard see this as important enough to censor, I'm about 99% sure this is Tyrael making his comeback.

I get a good laugh at some of the possibilities. What fun title combinations do you all use?
