Diablo 4 Season 6: How To Fully Utilize The Power Of Rend Barbarian Build In The Game?

Although Diablo 4 can be considered a stand-alone game, it can actually be played online and has some in-game transactions. The developers have made a lot of money from players through the battle pass, limited-time skins, and mounts launched each season. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to call this game a “semi-stand-alone game”. However, this part of the transaction is not transparent to players because these developers deliberately confuse their value, making it difficult for players to figure out how much money they have wasted on these contents. Recently, Consumer Protection Cooperation Network (CPC) coordinated with European Commission to publish a set of guidelines specifically for virtual currencies in games, with the aim of protecting children and people who are susceptible to gambling temptations, as well as providing a more transparent player experience and complying with EU consumer protection laws. The virtual currency here does not refer to in-game currencies such as Diablo 4 gold or POE 2 currency, but refers to currencies such as FIFA 25 Points and Diablo 4 Platinum. In-Game Virtual Currency Principles CPC Network lists the following non-exhaustive key principles that CPC expects video game companies and gambling operators to follow when offering in-game virtual currency: 1. Product value display should be clear and transparent. 2. Practices that conceal the cash required for in-game digital content and services should be avoided. 3. Practices that force consumers to redeem unwanted in-game virtual currency should be avoided. 4. Consumers should be provided with clear and understandable pre-contract information. 5. Consumers’ right of withdrawal should be respected. 6. Contract terms should be fair and written in simple and clear language. 7. Game design and gameplay should respect different consumer vulnerabilities. These terms are intended to make the value of in-game virtual items more intuitive and understandable, and also to prevent developers from secretly manipulating and inflating the value of virtual items. And players as consumers have a right of withdrawal. These provisions are not laws, but a set of guidelines agreed upon by national authorities within the alliance that regulate gambling activities. This means that if a gaming company does not follow these guidelines, anyone who sues the company will have the support of national authorities and is likely to win. So the effect is immediate. Will Diablo 4 Be Affected? Undoubtedly, yes! Aside from the transactions between Diablo players, the game publisher has also introduced a currency called Platinum in the game. It is different from Diablo 4 Gold. It is a “premium currency” specifically used to unlock passes or limited skins. For example, it takes 1,000 Platinum to unlock a season pass, which is about 10USD, but the developers of Diablo 4 will not show you this when you intend to unlock the pass. And this is exactly the opacity that CPC wants to eliminate. Game developers must clearly mark the value of their virtual products. And because of the existence of this clause, “Should avoid forcing consumers to invest in unwanted game virtual currency.” Players will be able to unlock these in-game contents directly with cash, rather than exchanging cash for Platinum in the game and then using them to unlock in-game virtual items. The key point of virtual currency is that it can distinguish the value you actually get from the amount you have to use. Since digital assets can be freely distributed, while companies benefit from people using currency for short-term consumption, they actually prefer you to use and recharge virtual currency as much as possible because this is the driver of their ongoing revenue. Therefore, people not making frequent consumption and becoming conservative with virtual currency will hurt the revenue of game publishers. These provisions will effectively combat situations where in-game items cost $6 to unlock, but you can only redeem $5 of virtual currency. Diablo 4 often faces this problem in Platinum, where the 1,000 Platinum pack is too little to unlock most skins, but the 2,800 Platinum pack will leave some Platinum to entice players to continue consumption to “not waste”. In other words, this clause will combat the practice of game developers forcing consumers to consume. What Should Diablo 4 Do? In order for game publishers to avoid being investigated by state laws due to Consumer Protection Act, any electronic games or other content released should be reviewed and modified if necessary. These new key principles will bring significant changes to many existing games because they target practices that are currently common in the market. If the developers of Diablo 4 fail to complete the review and transformation in time, they may face a fine of up to 4% of their annual turnover. In any case, this is a good thing for players. This new clause does not affect the exchange of Diablo 4 Gold and items between players, but mainly targets the publishers of the game. Currencies such as Platinum will not disappear in a short time, because the value of these virtual currencies is not fixed and can be manipulated by game developers at will. However, publishers, including Diablo 4, should mark the real product value below the virtual items. If this policy is implemented smoothly, we can predict that other game manufacturers, including Diablo 4 developers, will use the trick of “using virtual currency is more favorable than using real money” to attract players to exchange their virtual currency with real money. The actual results of these new guidelines remain to be seen. All companies need some time to adjust, and the changes should happen in the next period. Perhaps we will see these changes in Season 8. Although this only applies to players in Europe, once there is a clear and mature set of rules regarding in-game virtual items, it will be beneficial to all consumers.

In Diablo 4 series of games, Paragon Board is a very important game mechanism. Because, after unlocking it, players can use the corresponding points to further unlock some board nodes, thereby effectively improving the various attributes of their game characters. From the first season to the latest season Season of Hatred Rising, in order to make Paragon Board play a more comprehensive role in the game to help players fight, the game makers are constantly updating and optimizing it. But in Season 6, we found that not every update of Paragon Board brings benefits. After actually experiencing the new Paragon Board mechanism in the new season, many players said that it has become more complicated to manage than in the past, which has hindered players to varying degrees whether they want to plan the use of their Diablo 4 Gold or want to further improve the proficiency of skill operations. Therefore, we will give some improvement suggestions based on some shortcomings reflected by Paragon Board after the current update. The Current Status Of Paragon Board In Season 6 When players upgrade their game characters to level 50 in Season of Hatred Rising, Paragon Board will be unlocked, and players will then receive some corresponding Paragon Points. These points can be used to fill in nodes on the board, thereby unlocking more other nodes related to abilities, attributes, and character characteristics in order to enhance the strength of the character. Currently, there are several types of nodes in the game: Normal Paragon Nodes, Magical Paragon Nodes, Rare Paragon Nodes, or Legendary Paragon Nodes. However, through in-game testing, you will find that most nodes are just “fillers”, and their consumption of points is only to reach the useful nodes you want in the end. Obviously, this not only makes the node upgrade process lengthy but also makes players feel that a considerable part of the points are wasted. After all, their consumption can only be exchanged for a few attribute upgrades. And in terms of the rewards provided by Paragon Board, there are even considerable differences between different Classes. Some Classes have a lot of Rare Paragon Nodes, or Legendary Paragon Nodes to unlock, while others focus on trying to get Glyphs as hard as possible. Of course, Glyphs also provide rewards or special buffs, but Glyphs are difficult to obtain, and it is also a hassle to determine which Glyphs are more worthy to obtain. Because they are arranged by level and alphabetically in the game, if you want to know what each Glyph helps, you have to check them one by one by hovering the mouse over each Glyph. The entire process of collecting and using nodes in Season 6 is currently frustrating, complicated, and a waste of time. Because it hardly provides any substantial progress for players. Improvement Suggestions Based on the shortcomings reflected in the current situation, our main improvement suggestions for Paragon Board are to remove most of the points required for players to unlock nodes, making the path to earning nodes clearer and simpler. This will not only make it easier to earn nodes but also allow players to get more rewards faster. Because in this way, players can achieve the same results as before with fewer nodes, and the relevant views of Paragon Board may also look more intuitive, logical, and simpler. It helps to solve the excessive Paragon Board workload that the original game brought to players. The second suggestion is to redesign Glyphs, because the current related progress system can be said to be meaningless and can hardly provide effective help to players. The improvement idea we provide is to set Glyphs as the center of all unlockable nodes, and make Glyphs the final key content by gradually unlocking other nodes of different levels, making the entire system more logical. In addition, the matching and connection between Classes and Paragon Board may also need to be fully redesigned. For example, Legendary Paragon Nodes should be applicable to each Class, and the benefits of using nodes should not be set too different from each other, to avoid an imbalance in the game experience between players of different Classes and affect the evaluation of the game. Although Paragon Board in the sixth season Season of Hatred Rising is currently insufficient, it is not unchangeable. If the game makers listen to the feedback from players in time and make some effective improvements and optimizations for this mechanism, I believe Paragon Board can provide more help to players. The above is the reflection of some shortcomings of the current Paragon Board mechanism and some improvement suggestions we have envisioned.

This guide details each boss that is exclusive to Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred, along with the specific location that they nestle. Enkindled Judicator Enkindled Judicator serves as the first boss appearing in “Pursuit of Justice” main mission. It shows up in the burning ruins of Windswept Cabinas as bulking soldier.

Each class is equipped with a unique skill tree, allowing you to freely pick and match skills to suit your play style. This guide takes a thorough analysis into Necromancer, Rogue, Sorcerer, Barbarian, and Druid to help you choose the best class based on your play style. Necromancer–Best Class Overall The primary resource of a Necromancer is Essence, a resource that can be slowly restored over time or quickly accumulated using basic skills, and is used to cast powerful spells. The secondary resource of a Necromancer is Corpses, the remains of fallen enemies on the field. These corpses can be used in a variety of ways in the hands of a Necromancer, from manipulating them into skeleton minions to setting deadly traps for enemies using skills such as Corpse Explosion. Necromancers can equip a wide variety of weapons, including swords, daggers, and wands, and they also have a unique scythe that is only available to this class. Necromancer has been carefully built for Diablo 4, focusing on devastating enemy groups with a devastating Bone Spear build. After creating numerous corpses with Bone Spear, they can temporarily revive the killed enemies with Corpse Explosion, causing AoE damage to all nearby enemies. Barbarian–Best DPS Class Barbarian is known for its extremely high health and strength. His attacks in combat will accumulate Fury, which can be used to unleash a series of powerful Fury skills. The newly introduced Arsenal System brings more variety to Barbarian, with four weapon slots, allowing players to mix and match one-handed and two-handed weapons, opening up the possibility of carrying four legendary weapons at the same time. Each Fury skill automatically matches and uses the corresponding weapon to ensure smooth combat. Barbarian build is centered on the use of Hammer of the Ancients, making it easy to crush nearby enemies and collect Diablo 4 Gold drops. This build excels in solo or team fights, with excellent survivability thanks to Iron Skin and Tactical Iron Skin, which effectively reduce damage taken and provides self-healing capabilities during combat. Sorcerer–Best Ranged Class With its mastery of lightning, fire, and frost, Sorcerer is a key player on any team aiming to defeat the toughest enemies. However, Sorcerer has lower health than Barbarian and Druid. Sorcerer passively regenerates mana, and one of her Minor Destruction skills is dedicated to generating mana. Once Sorcerer reaches max level, she can unleash powerful ultimate skills that deal huge amounts of damage, potentially completely changing the tide of battle. While Sorcerer is not dominant in solo play, she can definitely play a devastating role in team play. Sorcerer build focuses on using lightning spells to tear through enemies from a distance. The advantage of this build is that you can deal massive damage to enemies without having to get close to them. Although you may eventually encounter enemies that are resistant to lightning attacks, you can still maintain efficient output by strengthening Arc Lash and a deadly ultimate attack. Rogue–Best Class For Crowd Control Rogues can attack from a distance and engage in melee combat, and can choose to equip the corresponding skills as needed. Melee-style Rogues can wield swords and daggers, while those who prefer ranged combat can equip bows and crossbows to fire arrows and bolts at enemies. Rogues have a number of special class tasks, which are scattered throughout Sanctuary. Rogues have three class specializations: Combo Points, Shadow Realm, and Exploit Weakness. Among them, Shadow Realm allows melee-style Rogues to lure enemies into a dark void, and enemies outside the void will temporarily disappear, so that Rogues can prioritize eliminating enemies in the space in a safe environment. Exploit Weakness specialization displays icons on enemies, providing opportunities for quick defeat. Combo Points specialization allows Rogue to accumulate points to unleash more powerful skills. Rogue can also combine three imbue effects with any attack or skill to enhance its imbue effects, such as a ranged Rogue can combine Rain of Arrows with Frost Imbue effect to freeze the battlefield. Rogue build is a versatile character that can attack from both range and close range. Penetrating Shot build focuses on weakening enemy minions with Smoke Grenade and Caltrops and then uses Puncture skill to accumulate combo points. Once enough combo points are accumulated, Penetrating Shot can be used to perform heavy attacks, while Dash and Concealment can be used to gain movement-based damage bonuses. Druid–Best Class For Buffs Druid can transform into a ferocious werebear or a terrifying werewolf to attack. No matter which form Druid is in, he is always accompanied by two wolf companions. Druid can also manipulate elements in human form. Druid can focus entirely on shapeshifting mechanic. Compared to Barbarian and Sorcerer, Druid is better at fighting powerful single targets and multiple enemies at the same time than Sorcerer and Druid. Druid builds are mainly centered on Landslide skill, which summons earth pillars to crush enemies. You can become faster and stronger through Druid’s Werebear. If the enemy can still stand after being hit by Trample and Landslide, activate Hurricane to trap them all and repeat the previous skill cycle. Each class has its own unique features, and the best choice is the one that allows you to enjoy the game and play your play style.
