As promised, the Diablo 4 development team has now released a Nightmare Dungeon hotfix toning down the difficulty of these activities after previously promising to do so in their recently concluded Campfire Chat. Based on the changes that have been made, it seems Blizzard has decided to implement “a reduction to overall monster power levels in Nightmare Dungeons,” so “the new top range for tier 100 will feel like what tier 70 was previously.”
In a message posted on the game’s official forum, community manager Adam Fletcher gave players a look at the exact Diablo 4 Nightmare Dungeons update that was made by a listing a handful of examples, which you’ll be able to take a look at below.
Examples
Tier 35
- HP reduced by ~2%
- Damaged reduced by ~1%
Tier 50
- HP reduced by ~20%
- Damage reduced by ~13%
Tier 70
- HP reduced by ~60%
- Damage reduced by 54%
Tier 100
- HP reduced by ~82%
- Damage reduced by ~79%
Based on these changes, it appears players should now have a much easier time with higher tiered NMD’s as many had long been complaining that the most difficult ones often weren’t playable due to the absurd HP and strength of the creatures within. The developers would also go on to note that “although these values make it appear that the higher tiers are easier than lower tiers, this is not the case because the monsters also benefit from being significantly higher level than players in higher Nightmare Dungeon tiers.”
As always, you’ll also be able to check out the entire of this Diablo 4 Nightmare Dungeon hotfix through the official forum.
