2024-12-13
Diablo IV is celebrating the holidays with a community event, 'Slay Ride to Hell,' offering massive rewards for goblin slaying, alongside a limited-time Spiritborn class trial and boosted experience gains.
Slay Ride to Hell: A Goblin-Slaying Extravaganza!
From December 17th to January 2nd, Blizzard Entertainment's 'Slay Ride to Hell' event challenges Diablo IV players to collectively eliminate millions of Treasure Goblins. Reaching specific milestones unlocks tiered rewards, including coveted Ancestral Unique items, limited-time cosmetics, and the Resplendent Spark. Vessel of Hatred owners receive bonus rewards! This event perfectly complements the return of Mother's Blessing, boosting experience and gold gains for all players during the same period. Don't miss out; claim your rewards before January 2nd!
Spiritborn Class Trial: Unleash the Power!
Between December 19th and January 3rd, a limited-time trial for the Spiritborn class allows players to reach level 25 without purchasing the Vessel of Hatred expansion. All progress made during the trial carries over to the full expansion, providing a fantastic opportunity to experience the new class before committing to a purchase. This is a great way to test-drive the new content and see if it is worth the investment!
The Ancestral Item Drop Rate Debate Heats Up!
A recent Blizzard Diablo IV forum post titled "Why not increase ancestral drop rate NOW?" highlights significant player frustration concerning the low drop rate of ancestral items. While the specifics of the post are unavailable, the title clearly indicates player concern about the difficulty in obtaining these items, deemed crucial for progression and endgame content. The urgency expressed suggests the current drop rate negatively impacts player enjoyment and could be impacting the game's balance. This highlights the importance of developer responsiveness to community feedback regarding drop rates and game balance.
