In video games, especially those focused on multiplayer, there will almost always be people who cheat for their own benefit. This is inevitable in Diablo IV, where fans exploit game glitches, leading to chaos. Blizzard had to respond once again to such actions and make changes in the 5th season of the game.

Problem of duplicating items

Once again, the developers of the fourth Diablo have disabled the ability to exchange items with other players. This feature is currently completely disabled in the game, and other players are unable to view the items we drop from our inventory on the ground. The reason for this change is a bug related to item duplication, to which Blizzard responded very quickly.

As claimed by the streamer using the pseudonym Rob2628, recently the items in Diablo IV have been mainly duplicated by players from China. According to his sources, they exploited a bug to stock up on valuable items, which led to a price increase for these rare items on external websites.

Errors in new season annoy players

Blizzard has stated that it will provide regular updates on changes to trading in Diablo IV and will strive to promptly identify and resolve any potential issues. This does not change the fact that players are upset with the situation - after all, collecting valuable items and exchanging them has been a very important part of gameplay in the Diablo series for many years. In practically every new season of the fourth installment of Diablo, developers are forced to temporarily block exchanges, which can be frustrating for some.

Despite the increased interest in the newest "Diablo" due to the debut of the 5th season and the related updates, fans continue to criticize Blizzard for numerous errors that the studio has been working intensively to fix for over a week. Boss behavior, rewards earned in dungeons, and the Infernal Hordes mode were among the persistent issues. Now, in addition to the trading problem, there is also the bug related to Gauntlet. The devs declare that this error is to be eliminated this week.
