The Pit of Artificers & Tormented Bosses Nerfed in Diablo 4 Patch 1.4.3

wowhead.com:

With the release of the Diablo 4 Patch 1.4.3 Patch Notes, Blizzard has announced that The Pit of Artificers will be receiving adjustments that will allow players to more easily farm Masterworking materials. In addition, the health pools of all Tormented Bosses will also be decreased by a whopping 30%!

Blizzard

End-Game

• Health and damage levels have been reduced in the Pit. The adjustment is most significant as players approach tier 60, so more players can fully participate in Masterworking.

Developer’s Note: We're adjusting the pit so more players can enjoy a smoother end game progression experience.

• All Tormented bosses have had their health reduced by 30%. This includes Blood Boils from Tormented Echo of Lilith.

These changes come in addition to the recent updates from Patch 1.4.2, which included an increased chance to earn a Stygian Stone upon completing a run through The Pit. Even a small increase will significantly impact a players' ability to collect these summoning materials required to summon Tormented Bosses.
