Legion Events are also getting a guaranteed legendary item drop when Diablo 4's patch 1.1.1 release date comes around, as are Treasure Goblins starting as soon as level 15. To compensate for the higher difficulty, the former are guaranteed to drop a legendary item starting at level 35. Monster density will be 'substantially increased in Nightmare Dungeons, as well as in Helltide.'ĭungeon and world bosses will have their health boosted in World Tier 3 and 4. On top of that, respec costs will be reduced by 'about 40%,' making it easier to try out new builds as we level our seasonal characters. We'll be able to purchase an additional stash tab for 400,000 gold, while the elixir stack size will be raised to 99. Other classes also have changes coming their way, like the druid's increased spirit generation and pet buffs, although they'll be fewer this time around. In addition, Blizzard plans to make certain uniques more effective during late game. The Sorcerer's late-game survivability is also getting buffed, while the Barbarian's early-game fury generation will increase.

We can expect a 'wide range of legendary power and unique item improvements for these two classes in particular,' with the Sorceress being prioritized. In terms of content, Diablo IV's patch 1.1.1 improves the Sorcerer and Barbarian's legendary aspects 'that aren't being utilized very well right now,' according to the developer.
