It makes no sense at all. They reduce the amount of Obducite in Infernal Hordes, but keep the same amount of Obducite you need to max items.
Yesterday I made a few hordes and for 1000 ether I didn’t even get to 1000 obducite
Just did a T4 10 wave horde and it was 320 obducite per 100 aether.
Something was wrong with your run, if it was on T4 ofc
before for 100 aether you had 450 of obducite ,on T4
Before, for 1000 ethers in T4 you had 5000 obducites, and now how much?
If this is the only way Blizzard can keep players in the game, is it to reduce the number of items you get so it takes longer to get them?
If you think people are going to be in a game for months to get three items, well, in my case, don’t expect me to do that.
Instead of trying to keep people in the game that way
what they should do is keep them with new events
for example putting a PVP coliseum similar to the one in Elden Ring, where people compete
a better skill tree not only with classes but also with subclasses, because honestly the class skill trees are crap, very basic.
For example, this last class they introduced, the spiritualist, and the other classes are the same.
They give you gorilla, jaguar, centipede skills, and in the end you have a build that has all the skills of the three types.
What they have to do is create subclasses within the skill trees that specialize in a specific type of skill, be it gorilla, jaguar or centipede.
Just checked (google!), it’s always been 100 aether = 320 obducite in T4.
During the exploit Elon Musk used (checked his vod), you could get 320 per 1 shard, instead of per 100.
So it’s the same now, you just seem to be getting upset for no reason.
You can search on Google whatever you want
I know this from my own experience, if before with 1100 ether you had more than 5000 obcudita and now you don’t, it’s because it has been nerfed

Yep, now doing nightmare dungeon with Material Opal is better than Hordes

What Blizzard does is the most absurd thing I’ve ever seen in a video game
If they see something working, they nerf it
It’s like builds, each season each class has builds that work well
And what does Blizzard do? They touch parameters that screw up those builds for the next season, instead of leaving them as they are and trying to touch other parameters so that other different builds can be made, they simply nerf them and screw up the game even more.
Yeah, instead of having like 2 or 3 fun builds per class, we they destroy everything and let people have one unique class with 3 builds using the same broken mechanics, original design. The S tier list should have at least 2 builds per class. Next season they will nerf the spiritborn, and so we will have only bad builds with no fun class, fortunately POE2 will be there.
It’s really ridiculous how Blizzard is handling this game.
I’ve been playing Diablo 4 since Season 1
and if you look at, for example, the gear skins, the glyphs, the legendary nodes in the Paragon Hives
they’re always the same, they never add new ones
And this is what Blizzard should play with:
changing nodes, glyphs, aspects for the team
only by doing this, a build can be better balanced
it is not necessary to nerf it
and it is as you say, all classes should have not only one but several builds,
that is why in another thread I comment on whether it is necessary to have subclasses in this game,
with a much more complex skill tree than the current one.
Easy fix would be to just adjust the ratios, boost obducite and cut back on gem fragments. I’m constantly obducite starved but I have millions of every fragment. TF am I going to do with millions of gem fragments? It’s not like the game is raining, or even sprinkling/misting decent drops for new equipment to socket. Even if it was, you’ll just remove the old gems and move them over.
Maybe add a system to convert gem fragments to obducite? I don’t know… anything really. They could literally do anything…
Seems like every time I MW an item it’ll give me the SAME stat boost, I didn’t want, 3/5 times. So when I finally get a boost I like on the 5-8 boosts it’s another 45+mins of farming just to get another reasonable shot, if you’re lucky.
