Discover how Diablo 4 players have unearthed an infinite damage build that's causing server lag. Dive in to understand the mechanics behind this build and the community's concerns regarding the new Berserk collaboration.

Diablo 4 Latest Updates

Infinite Damage Build Boss Powers Makes Servers Lag

The latest season of Diablo 4 introduces new seasonal boss powers that, when combined correctly, can create an infinite damage build that significantly slows down the servers. A YouTube video by Macrobioboi, released on May 9, demonstrated this powerful build, showcasing how it can clear a room of enemies with the right combination of boss powers and a Legendary Aspect.

To execute this build, players must equip the Vampiric Curse Legendary Aspect, which afflicts enemies with a Vulnerable status effect, boosting damage and causing the effect to last until the enemy's demise.

Complementing this, the Flesh Reaper's Disruption boss power typically removes the Vulnerable status but, due to the Vampiric Curse's persistent effect, it continuously stuns enemies. Adding Varshan's Life Steal boss power into the mix, which deals massive damage each time a boss power is activated, completes the build.

This combination results in numerous calculations that overwhelm the servers, causing lag. As wudijo noted in his YouTube video, the screen becomes inundated with skills and abilities, leaving enemies perpetually stunned. He remarked, "There are a lot of calculations going on, it's very understandable that this is a laggy build."

Blizzard Entertainment has yet to address this resource-intensive build, leaving players free to exploit it, albeit at the cost of server performance.

Worrying Prices with Berserk Collab

In other news, Diablo 4's collaboration with the iconic manga Berserk introduces a range of themed cosmetics and items. However, the high prices of these sets have sparked concerns among fans.

Players can earn Behelits through gameplay and use them to unlock free cosmetics from the Berserk Reliquary, including:

● Hawks Destiny Back Trophy
● Skull Knight’s Heraldry Mount Armor
● Brand of Sacrifice Marking
● Foretold Eclipse Headstone
● Od of the Berserker Emblem

The true allure of the collaboration lies in the premium sets, which are available for purchase using Diablo 4’s premium currency, Platinum. These include iconic Berserk armors and sets:

● The Berserker Armor, Barbarian - 2,800 Platinum
● The Hawk of Light, Rogue - 2,800 Platinum
● The Struggler, Rogue - 2,800 Platinum
● The Skull Knight, Necromancer - 2,800 Platinum
● The Schnoz, Pet Bundle - 2,800 Platinum
● Warhorse of the Hawk, Mount and Mount Armor - 2,500 Platinum

Each premium skin costs around $28, which is nearly half the price of the base game. Purchasing all items would set players back $150, equivalent to a 15,000 Platinum bundle with an additional 3,500 Platinum.

While this pricing model isn't new for Diablo 4, as seen in its collaboration with World of Warcraft, it raises questions about the affordability of future crossover events. Despite the high quality of the Berserk sets, their steep prices are causing hesitation among fans.

Diablo IV is available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Stay updated with the latest game developments by checking out our articles below!
