Main Stat Damage Bonuses Reverted in Diablo 4 Season 6 - Back to Former Baseline
Blizzard has stated that the Damage Bonuses granted by main stat, newly added in Diablo 4 Season 5, will be reverted in Season 6 back to former values.
In their newly released Patch 2.0.1/2.0.2 Patch Notes, Blizzard included a line mentioning the previously buffed Main Stat bonuses would be reduced to prior values. This, in turn, will undo many of the changes that players were just getting used to in Season 5.
Patch 2.0.1/2.0.2 Notes
- The 2x increase applied to Main Stat contribution to Skill damage has been reverted to pre-patch 2.0 values.
Previously, in Diablo 4 Patch 1.5.0, all classes except Barbarian were given a bonus to their Main Stat, increasing the Skill Damage they would deal. For some classes such as Druid and Necromancer, this reversion will equal up to a 25% nerf in terms of Main Stat damage values:
This buff felt especially strong in endgame, where players had accumulated a large amount of their Core Stat via gear and Paragon bonuses.
What do you think of this reversion? Do you think this will be net neutral with the other buffs being added in Vessel of Hatred? Let us know in the comments below!
