Diablo 4: Infinite Damage Build Causes Server Lag

Diablo 4 players recently uncovered an intriguing exploit known as the "infinite damage build," which has the potential to cause server lag. This build leverages specific seasonal boss powers introduced in the latest season to create a loop of infinite damage, overwhelming the server's processing capabilities. YouTuber Macrobioboi demonstrated this strategy in a video posted on May 9, showcasing how the combination of the Vampiric Curse Legendary Aspect and certain boss powers can lead to an unstoppable stream of attacks against enemies.

The process involves equipping the Vampiric Curse Legendary Aspect, which applies a Vulnerable status effect to enemies. Once applied, this status persists until the enemy dies, amplifying damage output significantly. Coupled with the Flesh Reaper's Disruption power, which typically stuns enemies but removes Vulnerable, the Vampiric Curse bypasses this limitation, causing the stun to repeat endlessly. Additionally, Varshan's Life Steal boss power adds substantial damage each time a boss power is triggered, further escalating the intensity.

As shown in wudijo's video, the sheer volume of simultaneous actions triggers massive server load, leading to noticeable lag. Although Blizzard Entertainment has not yet addressed this issue officially, players continue to experiment with the build, despite its impact on game performance.

Concerns Over High-Cost Berserk Collaboration

Diablo 4 recently collaborated with the popular manga series Berserk, introducing themed cosmetics and items into the game. While some rewards, such as the Hawks Destiny Back Trophy and the Skull Knight’s Heraldry Mount Armor, can be obtained through free gameplay, others come at a steep price. Each premium skin costs approximately 2,800 Platinum, equivalent to roughly $28 USD, with bundles reaching up to $150 for the entire collection.

Players can earn Behelits by playing the game and exchange them for free rewards from the Berserk Reliquary. However, the high cost of premium skins has sparked concern among the community, especially given the resemblance to Diablo 4’s earlier collaboration with World of Warcraft. Fans are weighing whether the quality justifies the expense, as the prices mirror those of purchasing a portion of the base game itself.

Despite the buzz surrounding the collaboration, many gamers remain hesitant to invest heavily in the Berserk sets. For now, Diablo IV remains accessible on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Stay tuned to our updates for the latest developments in the Diablo 4 universe!
