Diablo 4 Vessel of Hatred Campaign

Dear wanderers, every update of Diablo 4 always has some bugs, some of which can help players level up, and some can greatly increase the player’s damage.

In the PTR of Season 9, there was an abnormally high damage Barbarian, and its bug came from Horadric Spells. The latest bug is also partly from it, and this time the class that benefits is Sorcerer.

In the demonstration video, Hydra Sorcerer can melt 150 The Pit extremely quickly, probably in just one or two minutes. But in fact, any Sorcerer builds can take advantage of this bug because it is very simple.

How Does This Bug Work?

To achieve this bug, you don’t need any Diablo 4 items, you can even use this bug without any equipment. There are two conditions you need to achieve:

Key Passive: Enlightenment

Gives 1 Enlightenment per skill, 15 per skill if each skill uses unique elements. Caps at 100 and loses 10 per second. While Enlightened, the player gains Fire, Lightning, and Cold damage equal to the sum of those damage bonuses, and gains:

• 25% Damage (multiplier)
• 45% Mana Regeneration (increase)
• 20% Attack Speed ​​(increase)

Infusion: Smoldering Ember

When equipped, causes your Catalyst skills to deal Fire or Burn damage, allowing it to destroy enemy structures and has a chance to ignite the ground, dealing Burn damage over 5 seconds. Your Fire damage bonus is equal to your highest damage type bonus.

The Fire damage bonus from your Catalyst skills is replaced by your highest damage type bonus. When you are in Enlightenment state, you will get the bonus of three elements. Enlightenment will decay. When some players found that when you keep Enlightenment state through the portal, these two effects will have a wonderful reaction, allowing the damage to continue to stack.

Therefore, as long as you keep going through the portal, your damage will reach the limit. The damage caused by each of your skills is like dropping a heavy nuclear bomb in hell. Even 150 monsters in The Pit can’t stand in front of you for a breath.

However, since this bug requires you to keep going through the portal to trigger it, it is not suitable to use this bug, whether you are farming Diablo 4 gold or exploring dungeons. It can only be better triggered in The Pit.

Recommended Build: Hydra Sorcerer Build

• Lightning Spear (Rank 1)
• Ball Lightning (Rank 1)
• Ice Armor (Rank 1)
• Inferno (Rank 1)
• Ice Blades (Rank 1)
• Hydra (Rank 5)
• Key Passive: Enlightenment

Horadric Spells:

Catalyst

• Cosmic Anomaly

Infusion

• Smoldering Ember

Arcana

• Reactive Ooze
• Bloody Charm
• Tranquil Stone

In terms of equipment, just the right items are fine. The reason for recommending this build is that Hydra Sorcerer build may be one of the most powerful builds in this Season. Even if this bug is fixed, you can still use the powerful Sorcerer, and you just need to use Diablo 4 gold to reset your passive skills.

Should You Try This Bug?

As a player, I will try it without hesitation as long as I learn the bug. First, the triggering of this bug is indeed very simple, except for the level. You hardly need any Diablo 4 items, so this won’t waste too much time.

Second, this bug will be fixed soon, and The Pit is a tough challenge. Not all players can reach the 150th The Pit every season. As an ordinary player, don’t you want to see what power of the monsters on the 150th The Pit are?

For players, it doesn’t matter whether it is a bug or a game mechanism, because players are only looking for satisfaction. However, exploiting bugs is essentially a cheating behavior, and the pleasure of winning by exploiting bugs is far inferior to the pleasure collected them through hard work, and it will lead to boredom with the game quickly.

Therefore, as a player, I suggest that you can exploit this bug, but don’t make it your main class.

As a developer, this is a very serious bug (although there are always many bugs in each Season update). Although this bug will not have any impact on the player’s gaming experience, it will undoubtedly cause Sorcerer to be too strong in season 9, resulting in no one playing other classes, making their hard-earned class balance a joke, so this bug should not stay for too long.

The only thing that worries players is whether this will lead to a major nerf to Sorcerer in Season 10. After all, after several seasons of weakness, Sorcerer players have finally waited for a strong season, and I hope such a propitious time will not be limited to season 9.

This bug may be tried by many players, but the more players know and use this bug, the faster the developers will fix it. If you plan to try this bug, you’d better upgrade your Sorcerer to Level 60 as soon as possible and enter the Pit to enjoy it before it is fixed.

Diablo 4 Season 9 is another reincarnation of the main line. I will choose the Necromancer no matter what season it is. It does not mean that it is very powerful, but it is simple enough and I can leave everything to the skeletons.

But in the endgame, the disadvantages of relying on summons are exposed, such as the AI of summons is not high enough, the survivability is not strong enough, and the damage is insufficient. So Necromancer who pursues efficiency and high damage usually switches to another build in the endgame.

But Blood Wave Necromancer and Spear Bone Necromancer have been popular for several seasons. What are the options if you want to play other Necromancer builds? Maybe you want to try Shadow Blight Necromancer Build that can create 1 billion damage.

Advantages And Disadvantages

Advantages

• The requirements for Diablo 4 items are very low.
• The rolling order of skills is simple.

Disadvantages

• Skills need to be released frequently.
• It takes some time for the damage to stack.
• Requires high attack speed and crit.

Shadow Blight Necromancer Skills

• Reap (Rank 1): Enhanced Reap
• Blight (Rank 1): Enhanced Blight and Supernatural Blight
• Corpse Explosion (Rank 1): Enhanced Corpse Explosion and Blighted Corpse Explosion
• Corpse Tendrils (Rank 1): Enhanced Corpse Tendrils and Blighted Corpse Tendrils
• Decrepify: (Rank 1): Enhanced Decrepify and Abhorrent Decrepify
• Soulrift (Rank 5): Supreme Soulrift and Prime Soulrift
• Shadowblight (Rank 1): Key Passive
• Melee Skeletons: Melee Skeletons Reapers
• Mage Skeletons: Mage Skeletons Golds
• Skeletal Golems: Golem Iron

The operating principle of Shadow Blight Necromancer is actually very simple. You just need to focus on causing Shadow damage, which is the core of this skill.

First up is the passive skill, Shadowblight. Every time you attack eight times, the enemy will take additional Shadow damage, which can stack up to 450%. To trigger this damage, you need a faster attack speed, so you need to Reap from time to time to increase your attack speed and gain resources.

Blight and Corpse Explosion are the core of this skill set, and you need to use these two skills to amplify your shadow damage. The skill roll order is as follows:

• 1. Release Decrepify to weaken the enemy.
• 2. Release Corpse Tendrils to gather the enemies together.
• 3. Use Reap to gain attack speed and movement speed buffs.
• 4. Use Soulrift to get close to the enemy.
• 5. Use Blight and Corpse Explosion to bombard the enemy.

You may not run this build smoothly in the early stage of the game. You can use summon builds to get through the early stage first, and then use Diablo 4 gold to change skills in the later stage.

Shadow Blight Necromancer Gear

• Helm: Aspect of the Embalmer
• Chest Armor: Aspect of Hardened Bones
• Gloves: Aspect of Grasping Veins
• Pants: Blood Moon Breeches
• Boots: Yen’s Blessing
• Amulet: Ebonpiercer
• Ring 1: Sacrificial Aspect
• Ring 2: Aspect of the Damned
• Weapon: Blighted Aspect

Looking at the gear selection, you can see that this set requires almost no Mythic unique items to run, which means you can almost immediately switch your Necromancer to this set without wasting time farming.

However, in order for this build to run smoothly, you still need two unique items: Blood Moon Breeches and Ebonpiercer. Blood Moon Breeches increase critical chance and critical damage, and can be obtained by defeating Duriel, King of Maggots. Ebonpiercer can enhance Blight, which you can get by killing Grigoire, the Galvanic Saint.

Masterworking

If you have enough materials and Diablo 4 gold, then Masterworking improving your equipment should be done as soon as possible.

First, improve your survivability and make sure your armor has been increased to the upper limit of 1000 armor. Then improve your critical hit rate, critical hit damage and attack speed. Golem Mastery and Hellnemt Commander are useless to you.

Horadric Spells (Blight)

Catalyst

• Disintegrate: Shoot a beam between Arcane Conductor and you. Enemies passing through the beam will be damaged and slowed.

Infusion

• Nebulous Extract: Catalyst skills deal shadow damage and reduce enemy damage for 10s.

Arcana

• Sapping Crux: Enemies affected by Catalyst skills have their damage reduced by 10%.
• Shifting Powder: Release Catalyst skill and increase your movement speed.
• Bloody Charm: Enemies below a certain health will be executed (except for bosses). Since you are using Disintegrate, the execution threshold for non-elite enemies is doubled.

There are not many choices for the best Horadric Spells in Season 9. Sapping Crux can reduce the enemy’s resistance, while Bloody Charm can execute. This is very useful in high-level The Pit.

The remaining one can be matched at will. You can replace Shifting Powder with Fractured Core, which can further reduce the monster’s resistance. Tranquil Stone is also a good choice, which can make you unstoppable. You can decide which one you want to use according to your preference.

The above is a brief information about Shadow Blight Necromancer Build. If you have the DLC, you can use gold to hire mercenaries to share some damage for you. This is a build with very low requirements, but the damage is very high. If you don’t want to farm mythic unique items, you can try this build.
